We will ask all site teams to keep an eye on the weather forecasts in the area they are working and
consider making the following areas safe before leaving site if high winds are predicted:-
• Scaffolding & canopy sheeting
• Perimeter fencing to be checked for stability if we are acting as the lead contractor
• Skips – check contents are secure
• Materials stored at height – move to ground level or secure to the structure
• Edge protection on excavations
• Lifting operations may be rescheduled if winds are forecast
• Offloading & loading of vehicles – assessment made by competent person
• Work at height – continual monitoring as required using anemometer
• Scaffolding may be rescheduled if high winds are forecast
We are all a product of learning. Every skill we have; everything we know; everything we believe and everything we do has
been learned throughout the course of our lives. Some of us learn best by studying graphs and charts, some through visual
presentations, and some by reading detailed text books. It is important that we receive information in a format that works for
us as individuals! That’s why at Xmo Strata we use a variety of communication platforms such as bulletins, newsletters,
videos etc. However, if you feel there is a better way for us to share health and safety information, please let us know.
Ultimately, your safety is in your hands – but we will do all we can to keep you well informed!
