Working at height remains one of the biggest and most common causes of injuries and fatalities on facilities all over the world. The cost of these falls in New Zealand is estimated to be NZ$24 million a year, an amount which doesn’t speak to the human cost as a result of these falls.

In this hands-on demonstration, David will show you how contractors can work safely at height and how in the event of a fall, by using key personal protective equipment (PPE) and rescue devices, a rescue can be performed quickly and safely.

Facility roof access is inevitable – make sure you’re equipped to provide a safe working environment for staff and contractors alike.
