Health & Safety

Health and safety can very literally cost lives with scaffolding, high standards are essential and we always aim to exceed.

We operate a detailed health and safety policy designed to protect our team, your team, the general public and the work in progress. We go out of our way to make sure you meet all of your legal requirements and we carry out a number of services to keep well ahead of ours.

Some of our safety measures include:

  • Thorough risk assessments and method statements
  • Carefully planned design
  • Compliance with BSEN 12811 & NASC SG4:05
  • Strong safety barriers
  • Incorporation of rubbish chutes and lifts
  • Weekly structural checks
  • Extreme weather safety checks
  • Insurance to £10m

Remember, some of the essentials for you, which we can help advise you on, include:

Scaffolding Licences
Any scaffolding erected on public roads or pavements requires a licence from the relevant local authority.

Planning Permission
If your project needs scaffolding, it almost certainly needs planning permission as well, don’t forget to clear everything long before you hire us!

We work hard to ensure that our sites are some of the safest you could possibly be on, and our focus on communication and liaison helps you keep on top of your responsibilities and lets everyone become aware of any potential safety risks that may come up.

No matter what your requirements for scaffolding get it done safely with the experts at MWS Scaffolding Services; contact us today to speak to one of our experienced team and arrange a full survey and quotation.
