Health And Safety Guidance

New NASC guidance note released in 2014. 8 pages

Supervision must enable and support employees to build effective professional relationships, develop good practice, and exercise both professional judgement and discretion in decision-making. For supervision to be effective it needs to combine a performance management approach with a dynamic, empowering and enabling supervisory relationship. Supervision should improve the quality of practice, support the development of integrated working and ensure continuing professional development.

This guidance is for people who have management, supervisory or other health and safety responsibilities in scaffolding yards and intended as an aid to health, safety and environmental management and help reduce the number of injuries, cases of occupational ill health or harm to the environment.
