John This annual HSE construction site blitz has been occurring as long as I care to remember - with the same awful results each time. One day the penny will drop in that serving ENs is not the answer, you have to prosecute to get the message home.

Well hopefully that is changing. An inspector i have dealt with in the past was moving from one HSE section to Construction, and said there were so few of them that they were unable to follow up too much. They're currently on a large recruitment drive but it'll take a good few years for these 'new' inspectors to get anywhere near what they've lost over the last five years.

Said with full Friday mode turned on, Lots of EN's served, so FFI will apply. Seems to be a very good self funding campaign from where I'm looking....long may it continue. Poor performance within a specific targeted sector, they literally pay the price.
