Why scaffolders need a proper RAMS

Scaffolding has more inspection regimes and more legislation than almost any other UK trade. TG20:21 governs design, SG4:22 governs assembly, SG6:23 governs inspection, BS EN 12811 governs the general standard. A proper scaffolding RAMS has to reference all of these plus Work at Height Regulations, CDM 2015, LOLER and PUWER. Writing one from a generic template is impossible. Complys has 28 scaffolding-specific hazards in its library, all referenced to the relevant guidance.
