Over 100 Free Guidance Documents Helping to Raise Standards Across the Work at Height Industry

What makes FASET so valuable for those working at height is the support it provides. This takes the form of training, exclusive benefits for members – and over 100 free guidance documents available on its website. 

This guidance is aimed at increasing the safety of all trades working with and around safety nets and temporary safety systems. 

Developed by industry experts and informed by decades of practical experience, FASET's guidance library covers a wide range of topics including safety netting, edge protection, stair towers and access platform decking. The documents are designed to help contractors, principal contractors, safety professionals and site managers understand best practice and apply it consistently on site. 

The work at height sector continues to evolve, with new technologies, changing regulations and increasingly complex projects creating fresh challenges for those responsible for worker safety. Access to clear, practical guidance is therefore more important than ever. 

FASET's guidance documents provide an invaluable resource for both experienced professionals and those new to the industry. They offer practical advice on planning, installation, inspection, maintenance and safe use, helping organisations to improve competence, reduce risk and promote a positive safety culture throughout their operations. 

Importantly, the guidance is not limited to specialist installers. Many documents are specifically designed to help other trades understand how to work safely around temporary safety systems, improving cooperation between contractors and reducing the potential for accidents on site. 

The guidance library also demonstrates the collaborative nature of FASET membership. Many of the documents have been developed through the collective expertise of member companies, drawing on real-world experience from projects across the UK. This collaborative approach helps ensure that the guidance remains practical, relevant and aligned with current industry expectations. 

By making these resources freely available, FASET is helping to raise standards across the wider construction and work at height sectors. Whether you are looking for technical information, operational guidance or best practice advice, the FASET guidance library provides a trusted source of knowledge to support safer working environments. 

With more than 100 documents available to download, there has never been a better time to explore the guidance resources and benefit from the expertise that has made FASET a leading voice in temporary safety systems and work at height safety.
