Unsafe work at height in the pump station, Contractor was yesterday advised not to commence works prior to providing suitable fall protection for workers when installing the insulation and roof sheets.  Today a worker was observed on top of the purlin riveting the insulation sheet to the purlin and exposed to the risk of fall from heights.  Failure to plan the works and identify all hazards prior to commencement of works leads to such unsafe work conditions.  Inadequate pretask briefings for work at height and lack of competent supervision.
Hazard category: Falls from height
