Background

Working at heights causes many workplace deaths.

The government is requiring that all workers and employers complete training in safety standards in order to reduce risks and improve height security.

This is the nationally recognised course for RIIWHS204E Work safely at Heights, delivered by RTO Kallibr.

What is the Work At Heights Brisbane Course?

Safety at Heights Training Sydney also covers:

• Risk assessment of working at height
• Proper clothing and footwear
• Understanding fall protection
• Learn how to handle workplace injuries
• Use the hierarchy control steps

This hierarchy provides guidelines for assessing and minimising risks. Control measures are divided into eight levels. Workers begin by analysing the conditions at the lowest level.

1. Do Not Perform Tasks in High Places
2. Workplace falls prevention
3. Prevent falls using collective equipment
4. Protect yourself from falls by wearing personal protective equipment (PPE)
5. Reduce distance by using collective equipment
6. Reduce Distance with PPE
7. Minimise consequences for collective equipment
8. Training helps you minimise the effects

The primary purpose of the training course is to reduce falls. This starts by avoiding places that are high. Workers unable to work at heights should take all precautions to minimise risk.

This reduces the need for personal protective equipment (PPE). Personal protective equipment (PPE) is not required.

Workers may need to use collective protection equipment, such as guardrails or other external devices.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), which includes straps, harnesses and lanyards, is the last line of defence against injury while working at heights. PPE may include harnesses, lanyards, and straps.

After implementing measures to reduce the risk, workers focus on mitigating any falls that may occur. Nettings and airbags are two common ways to do this.

Workers need training and instruction too. WHS Act recommends workers attend training courses to get the necessary training.

Training courses will teach you how to work safely in hazardous environments. These courses will also teach you the best safety precautions for a safe working environment.

Is Brisbane Working at Heights Training for me?

Working at Heights can be deadly. High-risk jobs have additional hazards that must be avoided. If your job requires you to climb ladders or scaffolding or roofs or other structures where there is a risk of falling, then you will need to take an appropriate course.

To complete the course, you must enrol through an RTO. Verify that the course offered by the RTO is approved. An approved training centre can offer a curriculum which conforms to your workplace's WHS code, and will also include a unit of competency.

What is the duration of the Working at Heights Training Course ?

The RIIWHS204E is a full day course. Depending on the number of people involved, it can last up to eight hours. There are plenty of breaks and time for students to eat.

Students should attend a working at Heights course in Brisbane to refresh their knowledge. Whilst a Statement of Attainment does not expire, it is recommended that workers take this course every two years.

At what height do you need a working at heights ticket?

Falls at work account for 27% of all workplace-related injuries. To reduce injuries and deaths, the national code of practices requires all workers working at heights above two metres to undergo risk assessments. The code of practices still advises workers who work in smaller spaces to take safety precautions.

What's the average length of an Working at Height ticket

There is no expiration date for a licence. Refresher classes are a great way to stay up-to-date on safety practices. These courses reinforce everything you learned during your initial training.

You can get a refresher course online for heights. It allows you to maintain your safety without having to repeat a full-day course.

If your certificate is not yet issued, you can enrol in the RIIWHS204E course. With the right guidance, you can work safely at a height.
