System Design

We believe that providing a full system is likely to result in a higher level of customer satisfaction. By taking the opportunity to resolve future operational and maintenance concerns before they arise, projects have a complete system of care.

This is true for any operational projects within the working at heights sector. All businesses need to ensure that there is ongoing training and professional development for all personnel, the correct provision of personal protective equipment (PPE), and the supply of appropriate technical equipment per the requirements of the task at hand.

When implementing a complete access system, consideration should also be given to:

• Documenting procedural requirements and methods for operator reference
• Documenting emergency (rescue) procedures
• Training supervisors, including in emergency (rescue) procedures
• Ongoing periodic maintenance of systems and equipment.
