Maintaining Scaffolding Protection

Small steps to continuously improve site safety can go a long way to reducing the risk of a hazards occurring.

Keeping site equipment organised not only maintains a good appearance but also reduces potential safety risks.

Below is an example of how one site maintained scaffold protection:

This was very successful to maintain the integrity of the barriers and safety associated with it.
