UK - To celebrate the launch of its new range of versatile access tower products, Instant Planet is hosting a series of free 'best practice' Working at Height seminars across the UK, specifically for users of access towers. Estate management and Collection maintenance are central to the smooth running of heritage sites and museums, and with a number of tasks carried out at height it's essential that staff are provided with appropriate safety training. To help, Access Tower Specialist Instant Planet is offering a series of free seminars addressing the implications of the new HSE Working at Height Regulations.

Falls from height and particularly from ladders, are responsible for the majority of accidents and serious injuries within the work place, with as many as 50 deaths and 4,000 injuries sustained across all industry sectors in a single year. Looking in detail at how to conduct proper risk assessments and how to select the correct equipment for each job, the Instant Planet half-day sessions will combine practical advice and useful demonstrations delivered by keynote speakers from within the Safety industry.

Anyone involved in ensuring the safety of staff or who is involved in performing work at height themselves is encouraged to take up their free place on the Instant Planet training seminar. Simply call 0800 0854 161 or visit the website address below for further information.
