1 Best practice for delivery for training for work at height HASG are publishing a new code setting out best practice for organisations who provide training or education in the use of personal or collective fall protection equipment for work at height or rescue. Such training or education may involve practical experience of a work method or experience of exposure to height. HASG have drafted the document as a response to the wide variation In the standard ot the delivery of such trainig currently available, and In support of the HSE Revitalising health and safety" Initiative. It Is most Important that height safety training Is monitored, carried out and documented In accordance with an auditable standard. Until this document was produced there was no mechanism for this process. Height and Access Safety Group (HASG) Is a technical product group comprised of UK manufacturers and suppliers of fall protection equipment. The standard is intended to be used by all organisations providing such training or education, irrespective of the nature of course content, the type of training being provided or the size of the organisation providing the training. It standard applies to all locations where such training is provided, whether at a dedicated training facility or at sites which are not specially adapted (but are suitable for the type of training to be delivered). The standard Is not Intended to apply to training in the installation of fixed safety systems, or in the use of plant or mechanical access equipment. Some requirements of this standard will be relevant to organisations who are not commercial training providers but who provide such training to their own employees. HASG Members will Include In their management systems the quality control measures that this standard sets out. The main areas covered are: The management structure to facilitate the training Training methods Trainer attributes Care and maintenance of training facilities Up to date reference documentation Assessment criteria and maintenance of records Internal Audit Insurance covering all aspects The standard recognises the requirements of the following regulations and standards The Work at Height Regulations: 2003 (?)
