Hi all Trawling through the search tab for discussion on colour coding for our lifting accessories but cant seem to find any , any pointer please Just had all our lifting gear inspected and appropriate colour changed , however a new workplace owner wants us to tie in with their colour when we mobilise to their site. I can just see headaches ahead. Especially as we may only be on site for 10 days max. I see zero pros in this and I suppose am looking for plenty of cons to put forward. Thoughts please Joe

Hi Hillary That sound very sensible and still compliant. Anyone else used this option I wonder ? Thanks Hillary J

Is this is a client additional imposing post contract conditions? If so, find out how much it will cost to get all your kit retested and retagged. Add a minimum of 15% for admin and profit margin, then ask if he is willing to foot the bill as an extra on the contract! How long I wonder before someone suggests we should be using the same colours, or perhaps tagging with numbers sequentially like car number plates.... The client is entitled to ask how you ensure the safety of your kit.anything beyond that is an unreasonably imposition and should be resisted or charged as an extra. Always assuming his guys won't be borrowing your kit and vice versa of course?!
