Loto? - Why Bother!...

[Sidewinder]

Supplies locked out & tagged out as they were disconnected, unsafe, not I&T'd etc.

Client wanted them on, so...

 

[Andy™]

i hope no-one was working on the other end

 

[kerching]

Whenever possible I try to take a pic with the phone along with some form of date confirmation.

I know it does not stop tw@s but it makes me feel like I have tried and can at least show that there WAS a padlock in place

Would that be classed as attempted murder?

 

[Andy™]

Would that be classed as attempted murder?

only if it was intentional to try to kill someone, otherwise could be manslaughter

 

[steptoe]

well its deffo wilful damage,

and Im sure there are numerous other more powerful laws it breaks as well, as well as a complete and utter breach of H&S , (isnt that a statue law as well?)

 

[Sidewinder]

They've given me 3 new padlocks to replace them!

 

[Evans Electric]

Oh,,, That makes it allright then !!!

Serious breach of H&S I'd 've thought.

Years back , a multi-lock system was used at the Round Oak Steel Works and the consequences were dire if the procedure wasn't followed .

It started with the overhead cranes , of which there were many, and a caliper with numorous holes was fitted to the isolator if you were working on or above the crane rails. 

Each trade/ contractor would fit their own lock to the caliper .

I'd disconnect the entire supply to the premises and forget to warn them in advance next time I worked on something. Also next time you lock something out just leave it as a short circuit at the far end.

I'd be seriously pissed off.
