When taking a safe and responsible approach to working at height, access to reliable technical guidance is essential. That’s why the Work at Height Safety Association (WAHSA) makes a comprehensive library of Technical Guidance Notes freely available through its website: https://www.wahsa.org.uk/guidance-notes/

As the UK lead body representing manufacturers, assemblers, installers, distributors and users of personal fall protection and rescue equipment, WAHSA draws upon the expertise of its member companies to develop practical guidance covering a wide range of topics relating to personal fall protection systems.

The guidance notes are designed to support employers, safety professionals, specifiers and end users in understanding best practice, equipment selection, inspection requirements and safe methods of work. They provide a valuable source of information for anyone involved in planning, managing or undertaking work at height.

With legislation, standards and equipment technologies continually evolving, WAHSA’s guidance notes help ensure that those responsible for worker safety have access to current, industry-recognised information developed by subject matter experts.

Whether you are looking for guidance on harnesses, lanyards, anchor systems, rescue planning or inspection procedures, the WAHSA Technical Guidance Notes offer a trusted and practical resource.

The full library of guidance documents is available free of charge via the WAHSA website and is well worth exploring for anyone involved in work at height activities.
