Working at Height Awareness – Online Course

Description

The term work at height applies to a wide range of situations ranging from the obvious ones like working on platforms, ladders, scaffolds or stages to working alongside deep trenches. This is because the crucial thing to understand about work at height is that it’s not how far you climb, but how far you can fall. ‘Falls’ doesn’t just mean people falling from heights. If materials or equipment fall, that will present an equally dangerous hazard to anyone below.

This online Banksman E-learning course will cover common vehicle reversing accidents and the crucial role played by the banksman. The Banksman online course will also look at the controls and actions that can reduce the likelihood of such accidents.

When undertaking this course it is recommended that learners have sufficient command of the English language in order to complete the course.

Upon completion of the course candidates will receive a certificate which is available as a PDF (Portable Document Format).
