Comprehensive online course in fall protection that ensures thorough training when working at heights and using fall protection equipment. Employees who are to use fall protection equipment must have undergone training in how to use the equipment (‘Regulations on organisation, management and participation’ chapter 8 § 8-1). The employer is responsible for ensuring that the employee has received the necessary training and can document this. The fall protection course covers the regulatory requirements for training.
