As we have talked in the past the SCCR has no hidden agenda either.
We have been very open we what we are doing.
The minutes of the HSE are on this site.
You just have to look at all the posts in relation to training to know there is a problem there. Even Simon Hughes at the meeting stated as much when his training centre pays more attention to detail with the candidate & company in relation to length of training & amount of experience needed. This needs to be monitored across all training centres if its working!
Development of new techniques to keep up with the ever changing guidelines, getting involved in the set up of these guidelines.
Help with training funding.
Trying to help the ECITB guys due to the way they have been treated. (This one we all know has been stretched now so I kept it short)
Help with legal aspects in relation to employee contracts & employment issues.
Help with insurance matters.
Trying to create the link between employer, employee & Industry bodies.
The above is mainly what we are doing. Anyone in scaffolding can become a member. All with have input & will be able to change the committee or be on the committee, no funny handshakes!!
I hope this helps Phil.
Regards Stewart
P.S. Yes Steve said something out of hand but the backlash was out of order. Everyone says silly things on here, after all this is a chat forum. If such a comment had appeared on the SCCR web site then string us up. The SCCR wants to work alongside the NASC, CISRS ETC.
