When you are conducting a task where there is a possibility of a fall you should make sure all of the correct equipment is used and do anything else possible to prevent a fall. You need to ensure that you know how to use the equipment too. Equipment should not be a hazard in itself, and whether you need someone to help with the task. Additionally, you should check whether where you have set up the task is a safe place. Ensure it is not by a doorway or corridor without providing the correct signage and information.
