Safe & Well – February 2018
To: All Branches
Dear Colleagues,
Please see attached the February edition of Safe and Well newsletter with contributions from our USRs and field teams. This is a proper bumper edition: leading the way is the pole collapse/rugby poles feature – including the action for people to take, a focus on what the commentary around AMS checks on safe climbing tells us and updates on a new check for pole testers as well.
Shifting from poles; there’s the pre-habilitation service new flyer to help people understand how this can help, more about stools, a watch out for worn out things and a couple of “did you think about” pieces. And not forgetting guarding for hoists, engine idling, a good “Near Miss” and a reminder of a very close Near Miss on the motorway.
Yours sincerely
Dave Joyce
National Health, Safety & Environment Officer
