So it's the NEBOSH plan for capping results, preventing 'Exam Creep' as we're always hearing about with Teenagers Examination.....
An interesting situation....

Re: 4 year until charges were brought.....
And the final update on this case. Both reports are a worthwhile read. https://www.leics.police.uk/news/leicestershire/news/2022/june/company-convicted-of-corporate-manslaughter-following-death-of-two-employees/ Greenfeeds Ltd was fined a total of £2million after being found guilty of two counts of ...

Re: emergency eyewash and showers
It's possible for alarms to sound anywhere you need them, not just the immediate vicinity. For example, it used to be very common for RAF flying stations to have Liquid Oxygen Facilities*, to provide LOX for use in aircraft oxygen systems; each LOX facility would have an emergency drench shower. The...

Re: Torque Wrench - new but when opened was last calibrated in 2017
It really depends on what it's being used for as to how 'seriously' you take it.... Your comment about... Note the cost to buy new is cheaper than recalibration testing. is symptomatic of this quandary... Cheaper to buy 'new' but how do you know if you'll get another 5 year old one. Is it a pre-set ...

Re: Free training courses in England applications are open again.
It was a good course and I learnt quite a lot. This particular course, in relation to a workplace, is a good insight into Autism Spectrum Disorder, how broad it is and how different each individual is. A good section about what legal requirements are there. Until I did this course, I'd never heard o...

Re: Free training courses in England applications are open again.
I'd just like to say that I signed up for the 'Level 2 Certificate in Understanding Autism' It was one of the hardest L2 things I've done, possibly because they had so many additional resources to read for 'further info' that you could spend hours down rabbit holes. A lot of detail and a lot of ques...

Re: External electrical transformers
Just a word from me about Substations and their changes over the years. Not far from me is a substation that when I moved here some 30+ years ago consisted just of some large transformers and switchgear behind a fence. Then, early 2000s or thereabouts, they added a lean-to roof over the switchgear (...

Re: Keeping up with changes in BSI
Well actually BS8599-1 was updated in 2019, not last year. Ah yes, good point. The last two years seem to have merged into one! Quite agree re BSI. It seems counterproductive to publish standards that we need to adhere to and then hide them behind a substantial pay wall. I hadn't though of checking...

Re: Train Your Staff - And that includes contractors.
they dont see the point when the building is empty and wont do it when the building is full Well it's perfectly sensible NOT to do it when full of the Public, but the whole point of doing 'Walk Through' Drills when it is empty is to ensure that staff actually know what they are doing. Then they don...

Re: Keeping up with changes in BSI
Well actually BS8599-1 was updated in 2019, not last year. BSI do, in some cases, published 'Tracked Changes' versions of the old and new versions, but for example, I've not seen a monthly list of new editions. To be honest, BSI get on my nerves. They have all these standards, but then hide them beh...

Re: 1st March - Happy St David's Day
Hello Mrs Marple :wave: Nice to see you back. Messy, I know what you mean about Plastering, it's definitely a difficult thing to master. I've got a day out training tomorrow, so need to make sure I'm ready for an early start for a change. Get the car loaded with the training gear, ready to go. Nice ...

Well I'll say it because we can't ignore it..... A sorry day in history. A morning like no other, the first full scale War on European Soil for 77 years started this morning. Other 'Conflicts' since 1945 have principally been internal breakups of Post WWII creations, or semi-peaceful annexations. Pu...
