CIF Safety Campaign – Working From Heights Talk

11 Oct 2024

Yesterday, as part of the CIF Safety Campaign 2024, we were honoured to host Marian Deasy as she shared the heartbreaking story of her son Lorcan, who tragically lost his life falling from a height in his workplace in 2018. Marian’s story is a stark reminder of the importance of workplace safety, especially when working at heights. Marian’s words resonated with us all: “That attitude of ‘ah sure it’ll be alright’ cannot be accepted.”

Working at height poses one of the most significant risks on any construction site and by correctly mitigating for work at height risks, we can ensure everyone gets home safe, every day.
