Q. At what specific height is fall protection strictly required by safety regulations?
OSHA regulations mandate strict fall protection for general industry workers at elevations of 4 feet (1.2 meters) and for construction workers at 6 feet (1.8 meters) or higher.
Q. Does the Work at Height training cover proper harness inspection?
Yes, a core component of the course is teaching workers how to thoroughly inspect full-body harnesses, lanyards, and anchor points for defects before every single use.

A fall restraint system prevents a worker from reaching an edge where a fall could occur, while a fall arrest system stops a worker safely mid-air if a fall actually happens.

The work at height training certification is generally valid for two years. However, refresher training is legally required sooner if workplace conditions change or if a worker demonstrates unsafe behavior.
