This damming image from Google street view shows scaffolders working unsafely while erecting a job in North Ferriby, East Riding of Yorkshire .
The link to the image was posted today on our Facebook page by one of our followers. The date when the image was taken is unknown but it shows scaffolders erecting a scaffold on what looks like a vicarage in North Ferriby with a total disregard for safety. No PPE is seen on any of the workers of the “cowboy outfit” and one so called scaffolder looks to be wearing trainers.
This image comes to light as the Health & Safety Executive just announced a month long safety blitz on construction sites across the country. Lets just hope firms like these cowboys are caught in the act before somebody is killed…
sod the PPE! Look at the state of the scaffold!
I’m sick of telling leepy lee from quartz to be careful cos the HSE will be at his door Hahar
everybodies done it
racks on wagons just mean a heavier load anyway ! POINTLESS if loaded right no need
Xbox 360 have just come out with a new game and you get points for knocking Bricklayers of your scaffold.
I dont know what the fuss is about. We are being ruled by a Nanny state. Before harnesses where used and the introduction of the middle handrail was brought in I never saw anymore accidents then than I do today.
I’m from Hull (just down the road from where this was took) and I don’t think that’s a local firm… Nobody round here tends to have the rack on the back of the wagons!!
wtf are they doing .. lolololololol
To be honest i think its all wrong google spying on people !
