SCAFFOLDING SAFETY STANDARDS UPDATE

Updated NASC scaffold falls prevention standard available later in 2010

The National Access and Scaffolding Confederation (NASC) is currently reviewing standard SG4 (Preventing Falls in Scaffolding and Falsework). The new (SG4:10) version of the guidance will be available later into 2010.

NASC recommends that until SG4:10 is released the the scaffolding industry shouldoperates to SG4:05 including the interim Appendix A guidance.
