Labour
Training: Notes
• For the purpose of this analysis, "Falls Training" represents a
mention in the file that the worker took some type of falls prevention
training.
• There was no information/supporting documents found to assess the
quality
of the training.
• It's not possible to draw conclusions from this study about the
effectiveness
of the Working at Heights (WAH) training.
– This analysis covered the falls fatalities that occurred from 2009 to 2016. The
mandatory WAH training program standard came into force in April 2015. In specific
circumstances, some employers also had until October 2017 to ensure workers
completed the working at heights training offered by the approved training
providers.
