This was a new regulation that came into force in January 2009 dovetailing with a set of regulations called REACH. REACH is a European Union regulation concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals, which came into force on 1st June 2007. One of the main aims of REACH is to provide a high level of protection for human health and the environment from the use of chemicals.

Working at height refers to anyone working in a place where they could be injured by falling from it. Because this can also include locations below ground level, there are no exact height restrictions in place. The Work at Height Regulations 2005 were created to protect employees from injury or death by falling. They focus on the possible risk to workers and mean that employers are responsible should an accident occur.
These regulations require employers to ensure workers have appropriate equipment, workwear and training to work at height. Because of this, there is a high demand for online working at height training. These interactive courses cover everything an employee needs to know about working safely at heights. This includes how to use equipment appropriately and how to avoid accidents.
