Please see the message from Health and Safety Advisor regarding the new guidance and inspection checklist for the safe use of kick stools.
Dear Safety Coordinator
Please find attached updated guidance on the Safe Use of Kick Stools, including an inspection check list which can be found on our Working at Height web page.
It should be noted that kick stools are not always appropriate and that step ladders with or without a handrail maybe required instead.
There is a huge range of equipment so please contact us if you are in any doubt as to what you should be using, especially prior to purchasing.
Kind Regards
Suzanne Mason
