From AFAG

- Identify the appropriate equipment, number of workers and

skills required. A minimum of two people must be present

during all tree-climbing operations. One of the ground team

must be available, competent and equipped to perform an

aerial rescue without delay

 

 

If your employing a ticketed groundie, who is not competent then you are not compliant. Period.

 

Plus if you run a ltd company, you are an employee, hence you have a duty of care to yourself. You could be prosecuted as company owner.
