The primary goal of this training is to provide the basic knowledge needed to recognize and avoid hazards associated with working at heights. The WORKING AT HEIGHTS training program has been implemented to try to eliminate injuries and deaths from falls, even from heights of no more than 2 meters.

Note: This is not a regular WAH course. You'll get a blended perspective from a construction background and first responder to help you understand the true "cost" of accidents.

This course consists of a combination of classroom and hands-on learning activities. Topics covered include:

1. Common fall hazards
2. Fall protection and types of equipment
3. Working with ladders, scaffolds, elevating work platforms, and suspended access equipment
4. Related laws and regulations
