[FSP England @FSP_England]

As well as it being important you select the right MEWP, you need to have the right personal fall protection equipment. @AIFworkatheight members @IPAForg and WAHSA can help. https://t.co/a6omnIJ2NU

An often overlooked consideration when working at height and handling materials is the weather. Wind and slippery conditions can cause serious safety issues for operatives.

[FSP England @FSP_England]

Farmers are always thinking how the weather is affecting their livestock and crops, but are you considering the risk it might have on anyone working at height? Temporary access and safety systems might not be safe to use above certain wind speeds for example.

To all our Saturday morning workers 🔨🏗

Just because it’s the weekend don’t turn a blind eye to Health & Safety.

Are you working at height?
Are the fall prevention systems compliant?
Have they been inspected at least once in the past 7 days including the weekends?
