How Safe Are Your Working Conditions?

Robin Clevett looks at the dangers of working in hazardous environments and asks whether tradespeople are sometimes being put in situations where safety is being compromised. Robin reacts to the story of a joiner who was left paralysed after falling through a skylight, as he shares his experience of the accident and the pressures he faced working in an unsafe environment. David Byrne talks about how even decades in, there's many times where you will find yourself put in potentially unsafe situations and why common sense is so valuable as you gain experience in the trade. Sean Matthews joins Robin to discuss the responsibility of managing large teams, maintaining safe working practices and what can happen when safety starts to take a back seat. John Argyle talks about his experiences in the past and what he learnt from others.
