An Advanced Interactive fall protection course, and its deepest, delivering 25 interactions and 9 validated competencies across anchorages, harness inspection, and rescue planning. Every critical decision is made before the boots leave the ground.
Fall Protection is the training course for workers who use fall protection systems — full-body harnesses, lanyards and energy absorbers, lifelines, anchors, travel restraint and fall arrest. Manitoba requires the employer to ensure that a worker using a fall protection system is trained in its use, care and inspection by a competent person (MR 217/2006 s. 14.11).
Train the workers who use fall protection systems in their use, care and inspection (MR 217/2006 s. 14.11): identify the hazard, apply the highest control on the hierarchy of fall protection controls, choose the system, inspect the harness and connecting…
Workers exposed to falls from height, and the supervisors who plan and authorize their work.
Passing the final test issues a QR-verified certificate, valid for one year.
This certificate records that the holder completed Orientra’s Fall Protection training course and passed its written test: training in the use, care and inspection of fall protection systems — full-body harnesses, lanyards and energy absorbers, lifelines, anchors, travel restraint and fall arrest — the subjects M.R. 217/2006 s.14.11 names. Section 14.11 places the duty on the employer: a worker using a fall protection system must be trained in its use, care and inspection by a competent person. Part 14 prescribes no certificate, course length, practical test or refresher interval. It leaves to the employer the training in the workplace’s own safe work procedures — where each system is used, how it is assembled, maintained, inspected, used and disassembled, and, where applicable, the rescue procedures (s.14.2(1)(b), (3)) — and a full-body harness properly fitted to the worker and used, adjusted and stored as its manufacturer specifies (s.14.18). Carrying out a rescue is taught in the Fall Rescue course.
