Commons Library debate pack - Preventing serious injuries and fatalities when working at height (212 KB , PDF)
Working at height can be a necessary feature of some work and presents many risks to those undertaking it. Work carried out at height is specifically governed by the Work at Height Regulations 2005, whilst the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 provides the legislative framework for occupational health and safety in the UK. The All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Working at Height published a report[1] in February 2019. It provides discussion on the regulatory context, case studies of good practice and makes a number of recommendations with the view to provide further improvement in the height sector.
