Totally agree. I do a risk assessment everytime I start a job. Just step back take a second weigh the job up then get on with it. Called common sense.So for a farm like mine where there is no employees who is gonna want to see the elf and safety policy apart from rt?
it’s ticked a box but hasn’t achieved anything!
therefore it’s pointless.
sounds like a classic case of trying to replace common sense with health and safety, and seems like rt been suckered into it!
I will challenge the inspector on the day and make bloody well sure I tie them in knots over it.
Edit- before anyone pulls me to pieces over the above, yes farm safety is very important but anything written down has to achieve something or it’s not worth doing,
At it’s most extreme I’m probably going to end up rushing a job and cutting corners so I can get back into the farm office to write a policy that no one is ever going to read, Totally counter productive imo. And against all its trying to achieve!
