  1. I understand what your saying. I check my gear before use takes about 15-20 mins now I have to fill in the paper war adds another 10 mins realisticly, I the have to go in the office, they check my checks, cross reference with their paper war and photocopy the check sheet and add it to the file, about 30-45 mins. Theres about an hour gone there where you could have been working. Doing site clearence work esp. at the moment where the jobs are priced under the going rates, equals less time and less men to win the tender do the job already, then minus that hour per day and the huge amount of pressure to complete the job on time from managment equals stupid decisions and cutting corners. Catch 22. Personally Im use to upsetting managment but others arnt. It just fustrates me when the aim of the extra paper war is to save themselves rather than save lives
  2. Nope not there. The only other bit of info Ive got is an 8"x4" piece of card with the art no and reg no on it but deffo no lable even taken all the pads off

  4. :cursing:Its less than 2 months old but I thought I would make a start with the records so I didnt have loads of paper war in one hit. Besides the inspection sheet have to marry up with the item some how as Ive been told my krabs need permanent markings so they cannot be mistaken for other ones that look similar:w00t:. 1 sheet for 1 item. bollox:cursing:

  7. site agent not saying what site but its the paper trail they want for the blame game!!!! There has been a few fatal accidents on site involving other trades and apparently heads rolled now they ve been on h&s courses and up to speed on all the laws or so they would have you believe. Last month they would ask, you would answer, and watch there eyes glaze over then they would leave you alone. But not now

Does anyone know where the label with the serial num and date of manufacture ect is on the treemotion harness:confused1:? Cheers Ben
