Cómo controlar: falls from height
- Do as much work as possible on the ground or a solid construction, such as prefabricating and lifting items into place.
- Prevent falls with guardrails, scaffolds, elevated work platforms or secured covers over penetrations and openings.
- Where edges cannot be protected, use a travel restraint system that stops workers reaching a point where they could fall.
- Use fall-arrest systems only when higher controls are not reasonably practicable, with suitable anchors, trained users and a rescue plan.
- Choose ladders suited to the task, set them on firm ground and keep three points of contact while climbing.
