What You Need to Know About Working at Heights in South Australia
Understanding Height Safety Regulations for sa
Understanding South Australia's height safety regulations is crucial when your team works at heights or if you need to hire a maintenance crew to access a roof or elevated areas.
Installing solar panels, maintaining HVAC systems, or carrying out general building upkeep comes with clear legal requirements to protect anyone working at height.
Understanding fall protection measures and compliant access systems helps you plan properly, choose the right solutions, and meet local safety standards.
Under the WHS Regulations, all employers (referred to as Persons Conducting a Business or Undertaking, or PCBUs) will need to:
- Manage risks of falls from one level to another
- Ensure work is conducted on the ground or from solid construction whenever possible
- Use appropriate fall protection measures when working at height cannot be avoided
Differences in South Australia’s Regulations
South Australia’s specific requirements include:
- High-Risk Construction Work Threshold: Work involving a risk of falling more than 3 metres is classified as high-risk construction work. A Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) is mandatory at this height.
- In contrast, most other states and territories classify work as high-risk if there is a risk of falling more than 2 metres, making an SWMS mandatory at this lower threshold.
Despite this distinction, PCBUs in South Australia must still manage the risks of falls from any height by using appropriate control measures.
