Free poster and memo
October 1st 2007 Scafftag is offering a free
pocket memo on ladders
and podiums and a free
poster to HSS readers
(subject to availability).
The pocket memo
provides easy-to-assimilate
safety and maintenance
information checklists for
reference both before and
during use. A checklist for
ladders is on one side, with
podiums on the other.
The Work at Height
Regulations 2005 apply to
all work at height where
there is a risk of a fall liable
to cause a personal injury. A
common misconception is
that low-level height work
does not represent a
potential hazard.
However, whether it is
conventional ladders, step
ladders, kick stools or
podiums, and whether for
temporary or fixed access,
regular detailed inspections
must be carried out and
recorded.
Scafftag's visual tagging
systems help reinforce the
message that equipment
must be regularly maintained
and certified as such before
being used. More articles from Scafftag Limited: |
