Agreed.Lets make this the year we remember as the death of HS muppetry in the archaeological industry and not the potential death of an archaeologist. I don`t just mean gratuitous use of wobbly orange fencing either. Those of you responsible for HS out there, please-buy the SCAUM manual and place one copy per site available to site staff.Lets see professional risk assessments.Lets see if we can`t find a nice unit/university that is willing to provide professional training courses/qualifications for those charged with Health and safety. AND- lets see if we can`t get site staff to comply with HS mitigation too.It goes both ways.Happy new year BAJR.Lets make HS a priority in 2006 and beyond.
