Health & Safety

With our unblemished safety record, Anglia Access ensures the highest standards of health and safety are met.

Our platforms and booms undergo rigorous and detailed inspections and ensuring the highest standards of on site reliability are met.

All workers have a right to work in places where risks to their health and safety are properly controlled. Health and safety is about stopping you getting hurt at work or ill through work. Your employer is responsible for health and safety, but you must help.

Site managers within the construction industry have a duty to workers using cherry pickers or access equipment such as scissor lifts or booms. Recent legislation (Work at Height Regulations) means they must see proof of training and competence from any worker wishing to use access equipment.

Anglia Access can arrange operator safety training by IPAF approved instructors. The IPAF training can be carried out at your own site if required. For more information please contact the office on 01603 758246.

Report major injuries and fatalities at work to the HSE on the Incident Contact Centre number: 0845 300 9923.

Anglia Access Platforms are proud to support the Click It: The campaign for lives.

Click It is a worldwide campaign calling for all users of boom type platforms to wear a full body harness with a short restraint lanyard attached to a suitable anchor point.

The campaign started as a grassroots initiative by the UK Powered Access Interest Group (PAIG), a joint committee of the Construction Plant-hire Association and IPAF. Major rental companies took the initiative because unnecessary fatal accidents were happening when users were catapulted out of boom platforms because they were not wearing harnesses.
