The common types of scaffolding are proprietary and prefabricated, tube and coupler, and suspended scaffold. If you want to know more about these systems, click <\/span><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hazardco-resources.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com\/production\/common+types+of+scaffolding+(1).pdf\">here<\/a><\/strong><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Anyone involved in the installation of scaffolding is required to have the knowledge and skills to do so. Scaffolding up to 5 metres should be installed by a competent person. Competent means someone who has the knowledge and skills to carry out a particular task like installing scaffolding. The easiest way to gain this knowledge and skills is through training, qualification, experience or a combination of all three.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is important that you know that scaffolding greater than 5 metres must be installed by a person who holds the appropriate class of certificate of competence (COC) for the type of scaffolding. Scaffolding over 5m is also notifiable to WorkSafe. This can be done online <\/span><em><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/forms.worksafe.govt.nz\/hazardous-work-notification\">here<\/a><\/strong><\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We have a Scaffolding Task Analysis (TA) that you can use. This TA outlines the hazards, risks and controls that need to be put in place when it comes to installing and using a scaffold. Also available is a pre-start checklist for you to conduct your daily checks before use. These can both be found in the templates section of the HazardCo <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/hub.hazardcoapp.com\/login\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><em><strong>HUB<\/strong><\/em>. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">W<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">e will touch on in week 3 about the when, what, how and why when it comes to checking scaffolds.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Working at height for work such as building a house, renovations, painting, decorating, or roof work?
