HSE INDG401 — Working at height: a brief guide (rev 2, 2014)

Provisions the documents cite: emergency and rescue planning — do not rely entirely on the emergency services for rescue

What it requires

HSE's short guide to the Work at Height Regulations for employers and the self-employed: plan the work, including emergencies and rescue, and do not rely entirely on the emergency services for rescue in the plan.

The instrument itself: https://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/indg401.htm. The summary above is our plain-English reading, not the text of the instrument — always work from the source.
