Falls from height are one of the biggest causes of deaths and serious injuries in the workplace. The most common of these are falls from ladders and falling through fragile roofs. However, many of these accidents could be avoided with proper planning and by taking appropriate precautions. This is where we at CSS Work Safety can help you. We can conduct site surveys and Inspections to suit your premises, offer maintenance and certification as well as new fall protection, fall arrest and ladder safety equipment as well as instillation and training on the site or in one of our test centres.

The prominence of fall protection and fall arrest systems have increased tremendously during the past few years, showing that those in charge of Health and Safety including fall protection and other safety hazards associated with elevation are increasingly trying to reduce the number of incidents per year. 

Fall protection measures that protect everyone should always be considered before fall protection measures that only protect an individual. We can provide collective fall protection equipment such as temporary or permanent barriers, roof light covers and safety netting. Typically, collective fall protection measures do not require any action on the part of the user, once they are in place, in order to be effective.
