Approved EUSR Rooftop Worker Scheme!

Xi Training Ltd is latest training provider to deliver new Rooftop Worker Scheme

Xi Training is pleased to announce it is now an approved training provider for the new Rooftop Worker Scheme from the Energy & Utility Skills Register (EUSR), taking safety standards to new heights by ensuring those required to access flat rooftops are trained to do so safely.

Suitable for those who need to undertake jobs at heights of three metres and above, the Rooftop Worker Scheme has been designed not just for individuals that need to climb masts and towers, but any industry role that requires working at height on a flat roof.

Falls are still the leading cause of fatal workplace injuries in the UK. In the latest Health & Safety Executive report, a total of 123 workers were killed in work-related accidents in Great Britain in 2021/22, with the most common reason being falls from a height, which led to 29 deaths - almost a quarter of all work-related accidents.
