Working on elevated platforms presents a set of safety concerns which can be mitigated with proper training and preparation. Whether you work in telecommunications, construction, infrastructure projects or maintenance, the Intelligent Training Solutions height safety training program is designed to teach you the skills needed to keep you and others safe while meeting the highest compliance standards. Here’s how our innovative program prepares trainees for real world challenges.
Understanding and Assessing Risks
Professionals know all too well that in the real world, safety hazards can arise at a moment’s notice. This could be due to adverse weather conditions, unstable surfaces, human error and other factors. Our course for working at heights training in Melbourne covers the following:
- Conduct effective risk assessment before starting a job
- Identify potential fall hazards, compromised structures and more
- Effective implementation of prevention and safety measures
Safety Equipment Training
The key to safety on elevated platforms is the proper use of safety equipment. High-quality courses train students on how to select, use and even inspect equipment to enhance safety.
- Students are trained on the use of harnesses, lanyards and shock absorbers
- Anchor points and connectors
- How to inspect and use guardrails, rope access systems and scaffolding
Emergency Response and Rescue Techniques
Height safety programs ensure that trainees receive thorough instruction on the theory and practical aspects of responding effectively in a real world situation. Emergency response techniques include:
- How to conduct self-rescue in the case of a fall
- How to retrieve workers who are suspended
- Useful first aid techniques that are specific to fall related injuries
Ensuring Compliance
Australian workplace safety norms are very specific about the safety measures that risky work environments must abide by. Our course ensures that trainees are well-versed with Australian height safety standards (AS/NZS 1891.4). Failure to comply with these regulations could lead to legal penalties, which is why our course is specifically designed to help you meet the highest standards of compliance.
