Just remember legally you can't manage their sickness but you can manage (& monitor) their absences. Sounds daft I know but I used to manage upto 50 members of staff in a previous career & it can be a minefield. Think fsb offer H.R advice? Maybe Google return to work interviews & print off some forms to use & it will help to cover your arse as well. Good luck

You want to double that if they're a lil old lady, or triple it if there's a range rover on the drive!

That you're good at maths! :-)

Start doing return to work interviews for any unauthorised absences for all staff, then you can bring it up then & then decide whether it's genuine or to take it as unpaid or holiday. It can help to cut down on sickies because they don't want to be accountable for their absence, unless it's genuine. Mark every absence on your calendar & you may star to see a pattern!

Yeah sure if it includes a return flight to Norway?!

Still just twigs mate! Unless they're definite leaners (away from you into field) make sure you get a pull line on every one just to be sure. Take your time & don't over think it

Hahaha, pretty much zero I'd say :-) Reckon most farmers think LOLER is a song by the kinks!

You just need to side off the fence with hedge cutters before hand & around the rhody stems that you want to keep (!?) The real pita of this job will be getting all the leftover bits left on the fence, if that's part of the works spec? Always wondered if a jet wash would be any good for this task as it's very time consuming by hand. Good luck & don't forget before & after pics for your website (& us!)

Thanks for the link & information openspaceman :-)

Thought if it was a proper cage & not a bucket it was OK? The one I go up in sometimes has the drop down legs at the front, I wouldn't use it without them! Following post intently now for more info :-)

So take ya kid to a work site / yard & leave it play unattended then blame the company for their cock up? World's gone mad!

If you feel confident & are competent at work & it's within your comfort zone to be able to work safe then go for it, what else pays the bills? Just make sure you're in a harness with a strop attached & don't go up if it's windy
