james.wilson Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 Or not be tradespeople. Millennials, gen Z workers and other younger people who work as plumbers, electricians, and in other trades need to take the risk of asbestos much more seriously. That’s the message from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). The workplace regulator is launching a new campaign to raise awareness of the risks associated with the dangerous substance. Are we going back to 'you need a degree' All this isnt helpful the current genZ are scared enough of actual work, as it is. Im thinking we should have a work thing rather than an oh i cant, this isnt my thing, have you checked you can say this, etc etc ffs Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.

PeterJames Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 I had an apprentice leave because he refused to test smoke detectors where the ceilings had asbestos stickers after the engineer he was working with told him there was no danger. I had done the UKATA with him and we provided PPE but whats the danger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
