What if I also need Manual Handling, Fire Safety or HACCP?
Many Irish workers need a small bundle of compliance tickets. The most common combinations:
- Working at Heights Course + Manual Handling - common for warehouse, logistics, construction
- Working at Heights Course + Fire Warden - common for FM, retail, hospitality
- Working at Heights Course + First Aid Awareness - common for site supervisors
Each course is priced and delivered separately so you only pay for what you actually need. Total bundle for the most popular pair (Working at Heights + Manual Handling) sits at around 60 to 65 euro per learner.
Total cost of compliance over 12 years
Every Working at Heights Certificate is valid 3 years, so over a typical 12-year working life a learner needs four Working at Heights Courses (one initial, three refreshers). At 35 euro each that is 140 euro spread across 12 years, or under 12 euro a year for a fully compliant worker. Classroom equivalent over 12 years: roughly 1,400 to 2,400 euro per learner once lost productivity is included.
