Frequently

Asked Questions

Who needs to take Fall Protection Training in BC?

Reliable Equipment Rentals understands the importance of adhering to the OHS (Occupational Health and Safety) Regulation. This regulation mandates the use of fall protection systems for workers who face the risk of falling from a height of 3 m (10 ft.) or more, or where even a fall from a lesser height could result in serious injury. If you are involved in construction, heavy industry, emergency response, or safety management, and your work involves performing tasks at these heights, it is imperative that you receive proper Fall Protection Training. Take the necessary steps to ensure your safety and comply with the OHS Regulation.

Does a Fall Protection Certificate expire in BC?

Upon successful completion of this course, participants will receive a wallet card, valid for 3 years, indicating that they have met the training requirements mandated in the province of British Columbia. Participants are required to get re-certified before the 3-year expiration date on their card.

Annual review of this training is strongly recommended and participants are welcome to come back and practice as much as they need to feel comfortable at no additional charge – please call us for more details.

Do I need to be trained to use a fall protection harness in BC?

Absolutely—yes. In BC, it is not only highly recommended but also a legal requirement to receive proper instruction on wearing a fall protection harness and securing it to a structured anchor point. As per WorkSafe BC Regulations, before entering an area where there is a risk of falling, employers must ensure that workers are educated on the fall protection system specific to that area and the necessary procedures to be followed.

Do companies need to keep records of who has completed Fall Protection Training?
Employers are required to retain written records of employee education to ensure proof of compliance with regulations. Reliable Training provides a certification card upon successful completion of our training programs and maintains individual trainee records to prove due diligence.
What is the maximum height you can work at in BC before needing Fall Protection Training?
According to the OHS (Occupational Health and Safety) Regulation, workers need Fall Protection Training when working from a height of 3 meters (10 ft.) or more, or when a fall from a lesser height could result in serious injury.
