Health and Safety - London Scaffolders

Health and Safety

There are some golden industry rules in Scaffolding one has to follow if you want to avoid accidents. Here are some of our best recommended practices that have worked well for us in 12 years of treading with 0 incidents.

1. Let the same team who builds the scaffold to also dismantle. This is a must and nowadays as a result of cost cutting this practice is not being followed.

2. Never rush or overload your team with unrealistic tasks

3. Company overloaded with work. Taking more work than you can control will open you up to problems as you have to rely to much on new workers that have no history on company..

4. New untested employees appointed to run projects. Just because someone has its qualifications does not mean they are capable of running projects safe!

5. Agency Workers, We find that agencies will appoint anyone who says he is a scaffolder.
