No we aren't; we are discussing needles on site, and no-one is suggesting that anyone should work in those conditions.
If your unit is unaware of whether a site is safe, that's an omission on their part, but that wasn't what you were complaining about was it? You were complaining about them not doing contamination surveys.
As I said:
'archaeological contractors aren't responsible for the sites they send staff onto, only for the staff themselves'.
You appear to be making the same point:
'My employer has a duty of care and if that has`nt been discharged (had`nt bothered asking client/believed client without documentation) then my employer is responsible.'
Same content; different emphasis.
'Have a good plan, execute it violently, do it today'.
