More on staying safe at height
Falls from height remain one of the leading causes of serious and fatal workplace injury in Ireland, year after year. The pattern is depressingly consistent for safety nets and soft-landing systems use in Ardee: a short task, a familiar setting, a ladder or platform that seemed fine, and a single moment of overreach. Proper training breaks that pattern by making the safe choice the automatic one.
Competence is not the same as experience. A worker who has used ladders for twenty years can still carry twenty years of bad habits. Refresher training matters for safety nets and soft-landing systems use in Ardee precisely because confidence drifts away from the rules over time, and a quick refresher resets it.
