Golden Best Practice Company 4. Harsco Nederland B.V. Scaffold Security Device Title Summary: To prevent contractors, subcontractors, visitors and third parties from accessing unsafe scaffolds, ladder access can be blocked by means of a scaffold security device covering several rungs of the ladder. Practice all too often shows that people still access scaffolds fitted with a red Scafftag, whereas only certified scaffolders are allowed to do so. The scaffold security device is designed to keep it from falling or blowing off. The red colour immediately signifies that the scaffold is closed off and unsafe. This is supported by the large print stating that access to the scaffold is prohibited. A large pictogram clearly expresses in every language that access is prohibited.
