All scaffolder harnesses in Ireland
have recently received a thorough inspection by our Safety Advisor.
This inspection is carried out every 3 months in line with Brogan Group
policy. It continues on a 3 monthly basis for the life span of the
equipment in addition to operatives inspecting their own
harness/lanyard before each shift to confirm it is still fit for
purpose.
Inspections are carried out by Brogan Group's Safety
Advisor who has attended a formal harness inspection course and who has
received certification to confirm such. When issuing employees
with a harness and lanyard, an I.D. number and tag is provided to
ensure 100% traceability and that all items of PFPE (Personal Fall
Protection Equipment) are registered and inspected to statutory
requirements.
All Brogan scaffolders have now also received formal training in the
inspection, maintenance and safe use of harnesses and lanyards (in
accordance with NASC guidance note SG4:05). |
