If there is no audit process for company membership then how can the SCCR offer any contractor some form QA for their members?

Who said no audit !!
so correct are you frederick numbers make changes and as for ecitb tickets bet a lot of people dont know the durys still out on this one!!! scaff step well think it would be fine if you had 10 scaffolders working together lifting each end of the ledgers and handrails ect as this dont happen there s!it hard work and dangerous get rid of them up down down up up down!!! scaffoldings a young mans job anyway as for the step you got to be really young non productive and fooking fit and as i said non productive
So what's the difference mate? - anyone can join the NASC as long as they fulfill the audit criteria.

I think a lot of guys on here will disagree with that comment.
The amount of threads about the closed shop attitude speak for themselves.
I know a company that was refused entry over two years ago because 1 employee was still holding an ECITB ticket. The ticket was good up to last year?
Another because not enough Advanced scaffolders, they would not include the owners ticket in the count!
I have many many more.

What would be the point of joining anything if the member didn't get something back?
Who would do the auditing then - someone with no connection whatsoever to a scaffolding contractor?

But it's not a closed shop Stewart, is it?
Like we've established, anyone can join the NASC as long as they fulfill the audit criteria - Just like the SCCR.

to me the elite does sound very much like the nasc
and any company individual can join thats not really setting the standard is it if any tom **** and harry can join unless there is just as a single member tom **** and harry cna join to be herd and not as a company i hope that companie do have to go threw procdiures to be accepted to keep standards high. I also hope that it never become a who you knwo rather than what you know for the commitie members i like the idea i really do i am just a bit unsure as to the future of the sccr and will it leave us scaff high and dry once the money rolls in and bending to legislations etc etc i hope not as i do do !!!!!!! Think the princable idea is a good 1 the scaffolder voice, were your original intentions but be more of a nasc or more of a union the sccrs seem stuck in the middle i do not mean to be rude or upset any one with my view am just trying to get my head aroudn the hole thing cheers callum
Mate, I'm not trying to dig the SCCR out here, just trying to get my head round this.
Why would having individuals as members have any value for contractors who employ the services of scaffolding contractors?
A different criteria for different companies.
What, like Benchmark?
Well I don't know anything about them, what have they done wrong?
Its a voice for scaffolders Phil. If 10,000 scaffs say,We dont agree with this new ruling,imposed by 'Whoever Ltd,' someones got to listen. At the moment theres no group who will speak up for scaffs rights/welfare. Apart from the Sccr.
That, is a Union mate.

I don't know anything about them either, what have they done wrong?
Yes, but that doesn't get away from the fact that organisations that campaign for the welfare and working conditions of workers is called a 'Union'
Not all Union's are militant.
