You may already be, or are thinking about, working for a company that requires you to work at height. The most dangerous aspect of these jobs is not the height itself, but the lack of safety knowledge – falls are one of the biggest causes of injury in the construction industry. So, Access Towers are here to offer some working at height guidance to help keep you safe while you’re up in the air.
First of all, this blog post applies to anyone who carries out work at a height great enough to cause themselves an injury if they should fall. Whether you regularly work up a ladder, or at high levels of scaffolding, there are regulations that should be followed to help prevent injury. Below we have set out the dos and don’ts of our working at height guidance.

Anything above ground level is considered Working at Height. Access Towers are a large provider of PASMA Training and sit within the top 5% in the UK, allowing us to train the full range of 1-Day PASMA Courses to suit any of your work at height Tower Training requirements.
It is recommended by Health & Safety standards that those who are assembling Towers should be PASMA Trained. This will give operatives a 5-year qualification of competency for the use of mobile towers.
Certifications will vary depending on what equipment you’re hiring. It’s always best to speak with our Hire Desk if you are unsure, where they can advise what will be best for you or in more advanced working conditions, we can install onsite.
Training courses are for anyone using the equipment, from commercially to domestically. These will range from PASMA Training for the use of Towers, IPAF Training for the use of MEWPS as well as various other courses such as Safety Harness Training and First Aid.
Our Hire Desk are trained across the full range of work at height stock available and will be able to advise and assist cost-free.
We aim for a next-day turnaround, this is dependent on the transport routes and how busy we are at the time. It works both ways and could be earlier than your requested date.
