The Importance of Scaffolding Safety Procedures

Our scaffolding company promotes the importance of scaffolding safety procedures onsite by outlining the following to our domestic and commercial clients:

Safety Equipment

Load Limits

Site Clearance

Be Responsible

Current Standards

Gold Scaffolding Services Ltd strictly observes the latest protocols relating to scaffold hire, i.e. we work to TG20:21 compliance. This is essential as many scaffold structures are erected in public areas, busy construction sites, and close to main roads. We follow these rules not only for ourselves and our clients but for the general public also.

Safety Equipment

Working at height is commonplace for many in the construction industry, and safety procedures must be followed to avoid accidents and fatalities. Our scaffolding contractors ensure all systems are fully serviced with features including edge protectors, safety barriers, safety netting, rubbish chutes and staircases.

Load Limits

We urge our clients to be sensible when using scaffolding systems. It’s better to access the platform several times with lighter loads than to attempt a single climb whilst overloaded with additional weight. Too many accidents have been caused this way, so please know your limit.

Site Clearance

Keeping the areas surrounding our scaffolding systems clear from debris, inexperienced personnel, and vehicles is vital. Our scaffolding company covers all safety aspects with our clients in advance, as outlined in our RAMS documents – Risk Assessment and Method Statements.

Weather Conditions

No one should climb scaffolding in bad weather conditions. We carry out regular safety checks on all rigs in Southampton, Portsmouth, Chichester, Waterlooville and the surrounding areas, making a point to thoroughly inspect those that have withstood harsh winds as soon as possible to make any necessary adjustments. 

Be Responsible

It goes without saying that you should not attempt to climb any scaffolding system that has not been checked in advance or during unfavourable conditions. It’s always better to be safe than sorry, and at Gold Scaffolding Services Ltd, our scaffolding contractors follow all necessary safety procedures precisely and diligently.
