Workplace NL FP Refresher
Jun 24, 2024
To be eligible for recurrence training you must complete the 8 hour training
PRIOR to the anniversary date of your 16 hour training. Candidates that do not
hold a valid Fall Protection certificate will have to complete the full 16 hour
training.
Fall protection is required for workers who work at three (3) metres (10 feet) or
more above the nearest safe surface or water, above a surface or thing that
could cause injury if the worker were to fall, or above an open pit, tank or vat
containing a hazardous substance.
Fall protection includes a harness, net, rope, body belt, structure or other
equipment and or device that will restrain a worker who is at risk of falling or
stop a worker who has fallen. Any worker who uses fall protection is required to
complete a fall protection training program prescribed by Workplace NL as
outlined in Section 139 of the Newfoundland and Labrador Occupational Health
and Safety Regulations, 2009.
Recurrence training will be 8 hours in duration for recertification and consist of 4
hours for a review of theory and 4 hours for practical exercises.
