The Rules of Scaffolding in Staffordshire

Every project we undertake for scaffolding in Staffordshire works in line with the Government’s Work at Height Regulations which include:

  • Only properly trained and competent scaffold contractors can be used to set up scaffold towers and structures
  • It’s the responsibility of that contractor to obtain the relevant and correct licences for the scaffold to be set up on public highways and pavements
  • The company employing the scaffolders much also check they have correct licence, that’s in date and won’t expire before works are completed
  • If the scaffold is erected in a public place, the company should schedule work during quieter times to lower the risk to passers-by
  • Once erected, all scaffolding must be thoroughly inspected before its used. Inspections should then take place every day, after any alterations to the structure or extreme weather conditions

By adhering to these rules every scaffolding assignment Network Scaffold Services is part of is safe for all involved and the general public.
