In relation to the Rigger... I personally don't wear em... but surely the PPE should be fit for purpose...
So as an archaeological site will have a risk assessment about what you do... then appropriate footwear should fit the task... Rigger can be worn quite safely on an archaeological site... in most cases...
To me it seems that the next step will be to wear full scaffolders harness, if there is scaffolding on-site.... rather than if you go up the scaffolding. Perhaps we should ban cars from roads as well.
