A bear is not allowed a dump or a piss in the woods anymore. According to the powers that be we have to have a welfare unit so I got a Groundhog, tow along job which hydraulically lowers to the floor. Has a gas genny, chemical loo, a sink and a rest room. Not a bad little lot, its on a civils job at the moment and then its off across the heath.

you feeling ok Bob? ?

The bears will still dump in the woods, as the welfare unit is always too far away. Hope you site it in a shady spot.

There is always that but we have to be seen to be doing our bit. My lads are the first to rib me on things like this but they seem to think its worthwhile. Its got heating so at the very least there can be a dry change of clothes on winter work.

Top man, look after them who look after you.

Well done Bob,
It's been the norm in construction for years.
However there is normally a caveat....
A site is 5 or more work persons....
Otherwise back in the hedge.

I can just imagine the conversation with our finance dept....

“We need a welfare van...”

“What’s one of those?...”

“It’s a van..”

“What like a work van?”

“Err, no not quite.. it’s a van that you sit down and rest in”

“Oh I see.... so it’s like a van ‘not’ to work in..”

“Errr.. yes kind of”

“So how much is one of them then?”

“Oh, I dunno, bout £30k brand new.... apparently HSE says we need them now”

“ is that right!??....?[emoji23]?[emoji23]?[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]??????[emoji23]?...........
