The Health and Safety can be alittle strange at times

[robpage]

I do a lot of RAMS ( No Cappy nothing to do with sheep ) Risk Assessment Method Statements . I have just been asked to modify one for three men digging a hole to remove a broken clay drain pipe , there will be service pipes and cables in the hole the guys dig , and the contractors pet HEalth and Safety expert has just asked if we can get and use rubber picks to prevent damaging the GAs and Electric services , How do you cut concrete with a rubber Pick , YES the guy is serious , I have just suggested No-Spark tools s, but Rubber , Oh what is this world coming to , I kept thinking Zebedee from the Magic Roundabout , Biong - Boing

Hi shipmates, Hi Robpage, Send in an Irishman with a shovel, Paddy knows what to do??? too be sure too be sure.

I actually solved it in the end , the man reviewing the Health and safety plan meant Rubber handled Pick and Shovel , so if a man hit an underground high voltage cable it would lessen the chance of killing him , He had badly written the instruction and meant insulated not rubber , I wonder how many incidents like that happen , just because of poor English usage

Glad to see this is all cleared up and not rubber picks but insulated there was no mention if these are left or right handed though

HI Rob
As the first trip deck boy said "Do I blow the rubber dingy up before I put it in the water of after"
Cheers Des

Rob, could you do a RAM for the demolition of ships in Gadani Beach and if so how long would it take to produce?

[robpage]

Not long at all , there is no health or safety
