hamilton32 started following Your Risk Assessment system
-
Have you got a very basic site risk assessment system that is simple and easy to fill out that then refers to a more in-depth one within your health and safety policy or do you just have a standard table that is filled out each job? Did anyone think of a simple system that involves minimal writing? We are trying to sort our system out and develop a succinct and simple to complete risk assessment sheet. I haven't got very far with it tbh. If anyone cares to share a template or ideas of their own it would be appreciated! Cheers

Hi Patrick, I am already in Nelson in New Zealand. Do you have any part-time positions or options for self-employed workers? I am helping with my cousins business in forestry but still want to climb and do arb work! I have a 3-year essential skills visa, 5 years arb experience and a level 3 extended diploma in arboriculture, I am always looking to meet more arborists and tree firms to further develop my skills. If you think you might have a position for me id love to hear from you. You can contact me here or call me on 0212042836. Cheers, Hamilton

We've got a 2007 Jensen A540 it starts fine and picks up revs fine when engaged nothing sounds wrong but then after a minute or so the revs drop suddenly and it cuts out. This happens repeatedly. It's recently had a service and I can't find any obvious fault's. Does anyone know what it could be? Help massively appreciated! Thanks

I currently climb on a Spiderjack 2.1 which I now really enjoy using. Has anyone gone from the 2.1 to the spiderjack 3 and found that the switch is easy and there are benefits worth the price tag? The locking function interests me, a drawback on the 2.1 is working above your anchor or going out on branches with the rope pulling behind you... I'm used to and like the braking system on the 2.1 and want to know if its basically the same on the sj3? Interested to hear what peoples experiences of it are? # Cheers

hla 65 is fantastic. So light, no fumes or noise highly recommend!

I want something like this https://engrope.com/shop/industries/arborist/ring-to-ring-slings/ for general rigging. I like the simplicity of it and have been in situations where being retrievable would be good. I can only find the rings by themselves in the UK which is not much good to me... Cheers in advance!

I've been a subby for 3 years now and just charge each company an individual day rate as there are a few variables: i factor in the hours i'll be working there, distance travelled and the kit I'm required to use and how regularly they can guarantee me work. This varies alot. I travel up to 45 mins without thinking about adding cost for travel. Most people that work have to travel to work and get paid nothing for it. It's finding a balance between getting paid fairly and not pricing yourself out of work.

We still have a vacancy for an Experienced Climber
hamilton32 replied to Bawden Tree Care's topic in Employment
I can definitely do some days for you guys if you need the extra manpower, although I am not looking for permanent full-time work I could happily commit to part-time if the pay suits. I've just got back from New Zealand and I'll be here for a few months. I am a self-employed climber looking for a couple of days a week. I have 5 years experience in the industry, 3 years as a subby climber/2nd climber. I have a Level 3 extended diploma in Arboriculture with distinction Tickets from chipper to rigging, first aid and full clean licence. I'm hard working and easy going, with good organisation and communication skills and experience in all aspects of tree work and all operations like reductions etc are carried out to the highest standard. I turn up on time every day and work hard without moaning. I can email a CV and provide references and copies of qualifications etc on request. Give me a call on 07934782915. Cheers, Hamilton -
