On site you have to wear hard hats incase something falls from a height so why can pedestrians walk under scaffolders working with the same risk as something dropping I think it’s a loop hole in hse

harsh on the scaffs, no matter what barriers and stuff you have in place had so many times people decide to walk through and get in your business when trying to put up or take down jobs

I think for street scaffolding in this case,every safety features should be mandatory and priced into jobs, accidents can happen so preventing them is better and cost less then huge fines

No sorry Scaff guy I stopped at i feel sorry for the company,I agree in some sense what you are saying but £28 000 compared to a fatality payout which could be in to the millions he got of lightly

Should have maybe something tied to ur gun for tools is a easily prevented but if it’s a clip or pole ur disassembling then can’t fault dropping it

I had one of my boys drop a spanner from 2.5m. Not near to hitting someone and we got reported. We had the 2nd highest H&S officer in England watch us take the whole lot down

You pretend scaff’s argue over tethers for nothing, use a tether simple. Not better then anyone

I am working above people ,but if that tool was tethered it wouldn’t fall down to the ground and nearly hit a pedestrian,could be avoid ,health and safety at work it’s really important

This is the problem with street scaffolding. HSE pay too much attention to sites but the majority of risk is on the street work
