Despite strict rules and regulations to ensure the safety of workers in the UK, working at height remains one of the most dangerous jobs in the UK today.  Although we have some of the most stringent regulations in the world that are designed to ensure that risks are kept to the minimum, since 2001 an average of 50 people in Great Britain have died each year as a result of a fall from height whilst a further 8,702 are injured annually.
