Height safety certification
Manage height safety system certification with expiry tracking, evidence attachments and recertification visibility.
Height safety certification covers the installed systems that make work at height lawful and auditable: anchor arrays, static lines, fall-arrest components and related installations. Veritas Compliance retains certification records with expiry dates, evidence and location context.
Facility managers need to know what is current, not what was true at handover three years ago. Certification records stay linked to the building rather than buried in a contractor inbox.
Recertification programmes reuse prior test and inspection history so technicians mobilise with context instead of rediscovering every installation.
The problem this solves
Expired or missing height safety certification creates stop-work risk and liability exposure. When records are PDF-only, nobody notices expiry until someone asks on the day work is due to start.
In-platform certification with expiry visibility reduces surprise failures and supports planned recertification.
Workflow narrative
- 1. Register installed systems
Configure height safety assets with location, type and certification requirements.
- 2. Capture certification evidence
Attach test results, photos and inspector records to each system.
- 3. Set expiry and recertification rules
Define when recertification is due and what evidence is required.
- 4. Monitor and recertify
Use register views to mobilise recertification before expiry where possible.
