What Is Included in This Course?

1. When is fall protection training required?

Each province has their own specific criteria for when fall protection training is required. Common criteria in all provinces include situations where:

  • An employee is working at a height of 3 metres or more.
  • Working at a height of less than three meters where the surface below can cause a greater injury than the fall alone. This includes machinery, materials that can shift under weight, hazardous materials, bodies of water that can pose a drowning risk.
  • An employee can fall between an opening in the work surface
  • Any potential of injury due to a fall exists.

A fall protection plan is a set of specific steps that must be followed in the event of a worker falling from a high altitude. In order to be in compliance with occupational health and safety laws, this plan will need to be developed and the employees trained on the execution of the plan before any work at heights can begin. Our course covers how to develop, implement and manage your fall protection plan.

Fall Protection training is a generalized version of Working At Heights training. Working At Heights training is generally tailored for industries where working at high altitudes is common such as construction, or tree removal. Fall Protection training can be modified to meet the specific needs of many industries based on where fall hazards are likely to be found.

Our fall protection certification is valid for three years, however employers can set their own expiration criteria, meaning you may need to take a refresher or recertification course more frequently than three years. Even if you are certified, you will need further training if the fall protection equipment that is used in your workplace changes, or if you are found to be not fully competent in the use of the fall protection equipment in your workplace.
