i think you'll find that blue book has gone out of date and now dosn't satisfy HSE requirements and you will need to update to npct cs units.

You'll be telling me my driving license is out of date next:001_rolleyes:

I've got 41, but not 40.

 

Trees are either nicely pruned or they are not.

 

You need a good eye for it, its as much art as science.

 

We get plenty of pruning jobs on past results and recommendations thereof, so I don't see the need for 40.

 

However,having 41 is surely the best way to comply with PUWER regs?

 

Rigging gear is work equipment.

 

My insurance requires me to comply with PUWER.

 

I wouldn't want to try and explain, to a back pedalling insurance company, my track record and training with rigging gear, in the event of a hefty claim without 41.

 

Or if one of my staff were to be injured whilst carrying out work on spikes, or whilst rigging.

 

The first thing their no-win-no-fee solicitor is going to ask; " What training has this man had for using spikes etc ...."

 

For the cost of the assessment and a day off work, to me, holding 41 is a no-brainer.

i did some tickets last year and my blue book numbers were transfered and they were sat in 1995:biggrin:

 

but is that because of the training you had just done

 

the way i heard it you would just need to do a "refresher" course to bring it up to date.

 

the recomended thing seems to be refreshers for all tickets every five years.:thumbdown:
