Who is online fall protection training aimed at?

If you work at a height of more than two metres or are a supervisor for work carried out at higher heights, it is important that you have undergone fall protection training. Falling accidents are one of the most common types of accidents at workplaces in Sweden and are particularly common at construction sites.

According to health and safety legislation, it is compulsory for anyone who carries out construction work at heights of more than 2 metres, where there is a risk of falling, to have undergone fall protection training.

Failure to provide fall protection at heights above 2 metres can result in fines of SEK 400 000.

The training follows the Swedish Work Environment Authority's regulations based on, among other things, AFS 2001:3 § use of personal protective equipment. It is important that the employer ensures that the information given to the employee about the equipment is understood correctly. It is also important that the worker has understood the contents of the instructions. It is advantageous if the purchaser and stockist are also involved in the information (§§ 10-12)

Background

As a member of the European Union (EU), Sweden must transpose EC directives into Swedish regulations. The EU's rules for workers' safety and health are set out in a framework directive that provides the basic rules for safety and health at work. A number of specific directives also set minimum requirements that must not be exceeded in the EU member states. The third individual directive (89/656/EEC) lays down requirements for the use of personal protective equipment by workers at work. The regulations on the use of personal protective equipment are based on this directive. Examples of personal protective equipment that may well be used by different people include fall protection equipment. This requires training in fall protection.

Purpose of fall protection training

Provides participants with the basic principles and knowledge of the type of equipment required for different types of work and is aimed at anyone who works at height (with a fall height of over two metres), e.g. on roofs, scaffolding or in lifts.

Frequently Asked Questions

You ask, we answer. Don't hesitate to call or chat with us if you have more questions. 

According to AFS 1999:3 57-58 §, the risk of the employee falling to a lower level must be prevented. Where necessary, guard rails, work platforms, work baskets or scaffolding must be used. If guard rails or equipment cannot be used due to the nature of the work, personal fall protection equipment must be used.

Section 16 An employer who allows a worker or hired labor to use work equipment
in accordance with Section 15 shall have documentation of his practical and theoretical knowledge with regard to the safe use of the equipment. This online training course provides the necessary theoretical knowledge of the basic principles that apply and the type of equipment required for different types of work. 

A worker who is not covered by the first paragraph but uses work equipment in accordance with Section 15 at a
joint workplace shall have the corresponding documentation available at the workplace.

Fall protection training is a requirement for anyone working at a height of two metres or higher where there is a risk of falling. 

The course should be repeated every three years.

We recommend a review every three years based on the Work Environment Act, which emphasises that employers must ensure that employees have the right skills for their work. This is so that you can keep up to date with any changes in regulations the course is based on. Such as AFS 2001:3. 

However, there is no general requirement to repeat fall protection training after three years in legislation or regulations in Sweden. It is up to the employer to decide when and how often training should be repeated, based on the specific requirements and risks at the workplace.

On the other hand, under the Work Environment Act, the employer is obliged to ensure that the work is organised in such a way that employees are protected against accidents and ill-health. This includes ensuring that workers have the necessary training and knowledge to perform their tasks safely, including fall protection training if relevant to the workplace.

When choosing fall protection, you need to consider:

  • What kind of work you will do.
  • Possible working methods with a focus on the best working environment and safety.
  • How to get up and down to the workplace. What the workplace looks like (height, gradient, load-bearing capacity, etc.).
  • How long the work will take.
  • How many people will be working there, are you one or several contractors.
  • Need for barriers. 
After you have completed your order, you can start the course directly with the password you have chosen on the checkout page. If you order for other participants, the login will be sent to their email directly. 

The use of personal fall protection equipment is ALWAYS a last resort when working with fall hazards, except when shoveling snow. Use of personal fall protection equipment poses risks
of falling and hanging, with risk of injury.

A fall can cause great stress to the body and requires a plan to rescue a person who falls quickly.

Since a person who falls can suffer circulatory problems, rescue is required within about 15 minutes. Work with personal protective equipment must never be done alone.

There are different fall arrest systems available for use with harnesses:
- fall arrest line
- safety block with fall arrest function
- controlled slide lock on fixed anchorage line or rail or
- controlled slide lock on flexible anchorage line.

The course is theoretical and does not include practical elements. It is aimed at those who need to take a refresher course or who carry out practical training through employers. If you are looking for a combination course, you can call us and we will help you.
