Hvordan arbeide sikkert i høyden og unngå fallskader? I følge Arbeidstilsynet er fall en av de vanligste årsakene til skader og dødsfall på arbeidsplasser. Derfor er det viktig at arbeidsgiver kartlegger farer og vurderer risikoen, og sørger for at arbeidstakere får tilstrekkelig opplæring slik at arbeidet foregår på en sikker måte. Eksempler på arbeid i høyden kan være arbeid på tak og i stige, stillasarbeid, arbeid i personløfter (lift) og arbeid på spinkle underlag med fare for å falle igjennom. Kurset gir en overordnet innføring i regelverk og bruk av utstyr og passer godt for arbeidsgivere og ledere som skal føre tilsyn ved arbeid i høyden.

Stress is our body's way of responding to physical, emotional, or mental demands. Although typically associated with negative circumstances, stress can be caused by both good and bad experiences. Our bodies react to stress by releasing chemicals into the blood to give us energy and strength to handle the situation. This evolutionary reaction can be a good thing when stress is caused by real physical danger; however, this survival response can wreak havoc if it builds up without a proper outlet. This interactive online course discusses signs and symptoms of stress, and explains the physical and emotional effects of built up stress, such as pain and anxiety. The course also describes stress management techniques, treatment options, and lifestyle changes to help alleviate stress.
