Sectoral detail

Scope Note

⦁ Includes surfaces and areas more than 1m above adjacent floor, like ladders, mobile scaffolding, fixed working bridges, and telescope single person lifts which can’t drive while at height.

⦁ Excludes self‐driving lifts at heights (cherry picker, fork lifts with basket,…)

Skills

⦁ Selects and uses the appropriate equipment to go to the high working post

⦁ Identifies/ spots environmental influences and changes that affect the safe use (weather, rake, floor stability,…)

⦁ Ensures underlying work area is free ⦁ Mounts and uses the equipment according to the safety regulations and instructions

⦁ Visually inspectsthe equipment

⦁ Applies the appropriate collective protection

⦁ Uses the appropriate personal protection equipment

⦁ Ensures no objects can fall during activity

⦁ Secures small tools and equipment

⦁ Closes off underlying areas

⦁ Communicates with colleagues while working at height

Knowledge

⦁ Ladders

⦁ Mobile tower scaffold

⦁ Mobile elevating work platform

⦁ (04.05 Fall protection)

Autonomy / attitude

⦁ Safety awareness


Assessment

Self assessment

  1. I don't know how to take necessary precautions and follow a set of measures that assess, prevent and tackle risks when working at heights nor do I know how to prevent endangering people working under these structures.
  2. I am uncertain how to take necessary precautions and follow a set of measures that assess, prevent and tackle risks when working at heights. I am uncertain how to prevent endangering people working under these structures.
  3. I know how to take necessary precautions and follow a set of measures that assess, prevent and tackle risks when working at heights and I know how to prevent endangering people working under these structures.
  4. I am more than able to take necessary precautions and follow a set of measures that assess, prevent and tackle risks when working at heights. I know exactly how to prevent endangering people working under these structures.
