colin9730, If by 'people are in danger on the street' you mean the public I would say report it to whoever Gibraltar has that deals with health and safety issues. Whether they are nptc trained or not they should still be working without endangering the public.
-
Do you not read this to mean people other than the company / workers involved in the job. 'people are in danger on the street' This is what I am saying should be reported.
-
what do you think he should do?
-
Answering questions isn't hammering is it? Report it.
-
He thinks they are in danger and wants to do something about it what is so wrong with that?
-
He said they were.....
-
He asked a question based on what was included in his original post. Nothing to do with what you or anyone else believes in.
-
He said they were, he wasn't too specific.
-
Sorry, when he said 'people are in danger on the street' I took it to mean the general public.
-
Still no. what do you think. Leave it for someone to get hurt?
-
The amount of people on here who just walk on by is amazing sometimes. If someone was on fire you probably wouldn't do anything either, not your problem. He has mentioned the public being in danger not just the workers why wouldn't you do something.
-
Yes, if people / public are in danger just forget about it and leave them to it.
-
The rubber bands would have lasted much longer than a week, months as a minimum.
-
Do you mean people who use poison in general or specifically meant for cats and dogs?
-
And people who like tuna!!

At work another employee has been told something which I believe is wrong regarding climbing equipment. Really can't see how it could be right. I asked why a rope grab wasn't being used on a rope side strop, not wire, and was told it couldn't be used without a soft link as you cannot connect metal to metal. I understand it could be a problem if there is no give in the set up, twisting / side loads etc. Surely if this was true krabs to d rings, lock jacks zigzags etc. would also be a problem. I won't mention names, but i was told it came from a qualified trainer.

Most locks only slow people down not stop them. Chubb Cruiser padlock pick - Largest Lock Pick Shop - Walker Locksmiths Chubb Battleship padlock pick - Largest Lock Pick Shop - Walker Locksmiths

Just a couple of things that made us laugh at work, won't mention any names. "What will happen when we eventually run out of electricity?" And my favorite, Whilst waiting for the climber to start cutting, I spotted a passenger jet going over head with some gaps in the vapor trail. "Looks like it's running out of fuel!" I said jokingly. "Don't be stupid" came the reply, "That's when it's changing gear"!! Anyone else got any good ones?

I was going to walk to the shop for some milk, but now I start thinking of what could go wrong.....
-
And maybe a parachute for if the rope breaks?
-
I would think there have been vehicle's brakes fail etc. not long after an MOT but it's still a way of spotting potential problems.

If your machine has been loler inspected (and probably gone back to the manufacturer after 10 years for a complete overhaul, check the handbook for when it should be done), daily checks done properly (assuming you know what to look for), you are sure of the ground conditions (if not you shouldn't be setting up there), and any where near other people or roads you should have your work area cordoned off with barriers, alternative footpaths and traffic control if necessary. Don't forget the rescue plan due to working at height which would consist of someone on the ground to get you down. If you have all this in place there is very little to go wrong.
-
What? Things like, If you don't know what you should be touching, you shouldn't be any where near it. And, I would assume you are not authorized to be working on the network at all so you shouldn't be anywhere near it.
-
It is correct. The only ones that are safe to touch are double insulated such as the polymeric cables. If you don't know what you should be touching, you shouldn't be any where near it. If you are not a 'power line expert' then I would assume you are not authorized to be working on the network at all so you shouldn't be anywhere near it, definitely further than the, 'that's low voltage, 1 metre safety zone' that keeps being repeated.

Has the mewp passed it's loler check recently?
