DID YOU KNOW?
The UK Health and Safety Executive states that any builder, worker or sub-contractor is responsible for the health and safety on site, regardless of the size of the company (even if you are self-employed).
Furthermore it advises that even small builders should ‘keep people, including the public, away from danger’ – fence the site off and use signs to warn people.

Tagging Systems
Scaffold Tagging System
Scaffold must be inspected in the following conditions:
• Following initial erection.
• Exposure to adverse weather.
• Conditions that could affect its strength or stability.
• Following substantial alteration (addition or subtraction).
• At regular intervals not exceeding 7 days from previous inspection.
Tower Scaffold Tagging System
The Work at Height Regulations 2005 require an assessment to be undertaken before starting any work. Erection should be made to Prefabricated Access Suppliers and Manufacturers Association (PASMA) approved methods.
The Tower Scaffold Safety Tag provides an essential platform for entering and storing essential safety information, including movements and safe weight tolerances. Designed for use with the ClawTag holder, these tags can be fixed to the scaffold after erection without needing to dismantle part of the structure.
Essential safety and audit information can be referenced with the storage of these inserts after job completion.
Tag size: 75 x 180mm
Ladder Tagging System
The Work at Height Regulations came into force in 2005. These regulations apply to work at height where there is a risk of fall liable to cause personal injury. This applies to both internal and external work at height, and includes below ground level and low height.
All ladders should be checked daily and prior to use for any damage, faults or wear and tear. In addition they should be inspected at defined intervals as part of a risk assessment programme. Use these inserts to manage the identification, safety, maintenance of ladders and help conform to the Work at Height Regulations 2005.
The AssetTag holder should be permanently fixed to the ladder in a suitable safe place. Perform an inspection of the ladder (a checklist is printed on the reverse) and record the result on the tag. If the ladder fails the inspection remove insert and inform a supervisor.
Tag size: 50 x 181mm
Universal Equipment Inspection
Our Universal Equipment Inspection record helps an employer comply with legislative requirements when inspecting and helps maintain equipment at suitable periods as deemed appropriate by a risk assessment.
The insert has clearly defined areas to record equipment identification or reference numbers, alongside an inspection record. This allows a user instant access to important safety information.
Should equipment fail inspection, the tag can be removed to clearly display the message ‘Do Not Use This Equipment’ which is printed on the holder.
Tag size: 50 x 181mm
Ultra-fine Permanent Marker
Suitable for writing on all of our asset management products.
