ken,

as a matter of interest who do you have your insurance with, and what height does it cover for ladder work.

thanks

the problem with most of these directives and govt notices, is that they are open to differnet interpretation by differing regiond and bodies.

what one safety officer thinks is ok, may be completely disagreed with by another safety officer.

regards

martin

I'm insured through Academy Insurance in Mold. If memory serves I'm covered up to 11m! I think that is over the HSE recommendation. Fat chance of me working that high off a ladder, I'd have to bolt my 2 together!

Hello all
I emailed hse the other day and they told me the new law is in a consulation period and the law will be finalized in november and will be inforce at the end of the year, what the law will be exactely has yet to be decided.

Its all to much of a grey area, this is our lively hood, if we knew the laws we could plan.
