High risk construction work: Involves a risk of a person falling more than 2m; Involves demolition of an element of a structure that is load bearing or related to the physical integrity of the structure; Involves, or is likely to involve, disturbing asbestos; Involves structural alteration or repair that requires temporary support to prevent collapse; Is carried out in or near a confined space; Is carried out in or near a shaft or trench deeper than 1.5m or a tunnel; Is carried out on or near pressurised gas mains; Is carried out on or near energised electrical installations or services; Is carried out on, in or adjacent to a road or railway.
