The term ‘work at height’ applies to a wide range
of situations ranging from the obvious, such as 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. BUT you do not have
to be very high to fall and injure yourself.
