Our members include ATLAS, EPF, FASET, IPAF, IRATA, The Ladder Association, NASC, PASMA, SAEMA and WAHSA. That\u2019s a lot of abbreviations I know! Each member organisation represents a different sector of the access industry and are the \u2018go-to\u2019 authorities in their respective fields. On a day-to-day basis each member generally operates individually, but when it comes to advancing safety, best practice and competency when working at height, we all come together with a common goal \u2013 we strive for a future where everyone who works at height comes back down safely. We all have a part to play to make that happen.<\/p><p>We actively support the work of the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Working at Height that brings together MPs and Peers with government, industry leaders, trade associations, SMEs and contractors. The aim is to raise awareness of the risks of working at height, understand why accidents happen and propose effective, sensible measures to make work at height safer.\u00a0\u00a0We\u2019re committed to supporting the APPG throughout 2022 and I\u2019d encourage you to do the same. Take a <a href=\"https:\/\/workingatheight.info\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">look at their website<\/a> for further information and details of upcoming meetings (being held virtually for now), as you\u2019re welcome to attend.<\/p><p>Of course we are also proud supporters of The No Falls Foundation, with many AIF members having already joined their <a href=\"https:\/\/nofallsfoundation.org\/index.php\/get-involved\/supporter-scheme\/become-a-supporter\/\">Supporter Scheme<\/a>. If you\u2019re looking for a worthy cause to support this year, look no further, and help them continue their important work in the sector.<\/p><p><strong>That\u2019s a bit about the AIF, how can we help you?<\/strong><\/p><ol><li>Think of the AIF as your first port of call for any work at height queries. As a central point of contact for all ten associations, we can point you in the right direction to get the information you need, please just ask!<br \/><br \/><\/li><li>We also offer free guidance that you can download from our website. One resource I recommend you look it is \u2018Safety Steps\u2019, created by the Managing Risk Well group, a safety body within CONIAC, with input from the AIF. \u2018Safety Steps\u2019 is a series of guidance documents for different duty holders from client to designer, manager through to operatives. It starts with a range of questions to consider and provides prompts to help you evaluate the risks and issues when working at height can\u2019t be avoided. They are available from <a href=\"https:\/\/accessindustryforum.org.uk\/guidance\/safety-steps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">our website<\/a>.<br \/><br \/><\/li><li>This year, we\u2019re excited to be launching a series of webinars hosted by our members. Expect topics such as Managing Work at Height, Training &amp; Competency and Temporary Works. While we\u2019re still finalising the exact dates for these, make sure you\u2019re following us on social media as I\u2019ll be posting updates there first. You can find us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/access-industry-forum\/?\">LinkedIn<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/aifworkatheight\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/accessindustryforum\">Facebook<\/a>.<\/li><\/ol><p>Working at height takes place all day, every day, and everywhere. Whatever sector you\u2019re in, however big or small your business, and whatever method you\u2019re using to work at height, we have a network of members who can help \u2013 feel free to contact the AIF or any one of our members when you need specific advice.<\/p><p>For more information, visit our website:\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/accessindustryforum.org.uk\/\">https:\/\/accessindustryforum.org.uk\/<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0c98e15 elementor-author-box--layout-image-left elementor-author-box--align-left elementor-author-box--image-valign-top elementor-widget elementor-widget-author-box\" data-id=\"0c98e15\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"author-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div  class=\"elementor-author-box__avatar\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nofallsfoundation.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Lorraine-Brown-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Lorraine Brown\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-author-box__name\">Lorraine Brown<\/h4>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box__bio\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Lorraine has 20 years\u2019 marketing experience, employed throughout that time with a number of access manufacturers, equipment suppliers, and health and safety consultancies.
