Working at height risk assessment is an important part of the toolbox meeting. This involves identifying all the risks associated with working at height.

It is very important to minimise risks as much as possible. This can be done by using the right personal protective equipment.

Safer working environment
One of the benefits of a toolbox working at height is that it contributes to a safer working environment. By identifying the risks and taking the right measures, you reduce the risk of accidents.
This not only benefits your employees, but also your company. After all, a safe working environment reduces absenteeism and production losses.

In addition, organising a toolbox meeting is an obligation for companies carrying out work at height. Under the Occupational Health and Safety Act, an employer is obliged to inform its employees about the risks of the work and how they can be reduced.
A toolbox meeting is an important part of this obligation.

By discussing the risks together and looking at solutions, there is more understanding and commitment among employees. This can lead to a better working atmosphere and higher productivity.
