Drop comes despite increase in scaffolders
Reported scaffolding accidents and incidents have decreased 20 per cent according to the National Access and Scaffolding Confederation annual report.
The decline comes despite a 12 per cent increase in the number of scaffolders within the NASC, the report said.
NASC immediate past president Bob Whincap said:
“Non-regulated scaffolding firms are at odds with the demands that industry now expects, if a company cannot meet the criteria of the NASC then you have to question their safety practices and ultimately the very serious risk they expose to themselves and others around them.”
