Christmas Compliance
With the festive season approaching, buildings are quickly being covered with Christmas lights and other decorations. The process of spreading Christmas cheer to your building will most likely include working at height, be it using ladders, MEWPS or even rope access techniques.
Make sure you’re compliant this Christmas season to work at height. This means being properly trained, having a knowledge of the code of practice, how to use different ladders safely and making sure all your PPE equipment has been inspected.
