Scaffolding Inspector lafarge

1. Health & Safety Leadership:

• Field Engagement: Verify that scaffolding crews are conducting daily Personal Risk Assessments (PRA) and Location Specific Talks (LST) tailored specifically to the drop hazards and fall risks of their daily tasks.

• Risk Mitigation: Mitigate fall-from-height and dropped-object risks, ensuring 100% compliance with Holcim Working at Height standards across all overlapping work zones (SIMOPS).

2. Functional & Operational Governance:

• Material Validation (Critical Hold Point): Physically inspect and validate scaffolding material samples (including tubes, boards, couplers, and ladders) to verify the Main Contractor's commitment to using 100% approved materials before bulk procurement or site delivery is authorized.

• Design & Calculation Review: Review, assess, and approve scaffolding drawings and load-bearing calculations for complex, heavy, or high-elevation structures (e.g., Preheater ID Fan, Main Filter, Cooler ESP) before any erection begins.

• Execution & Daily Inspections: Conduct rigorous, documented daily physical inspections of all erected scaffolds. Verify structural integrity, including proper foundations, load distribution, bracing, guardrails (top and mid-rails), toe boards, and safe access/egress points.

• Tagging & PTW System: Implement, strictly control, and audit the daily scaffold tagging system (e.g., Red, Yellow, Green tags). Validate and sign off on all Working at Height Permits to Work (PTW) prior to task execution.

• Competency Verification: Assess and verify the certifications, training, and physical competency of the Main Contractor s scaffolding supervisors, inspectors, and erecting crews prior to their mobilization.

• Intervention & Corrective Action: Maintain the absolute authority to immediately "Red Tag" and issue a Stop Work Order for any scaffold deemed unsafe, incomplete, or altered by unauthorized personnel. Lead the immediate implementation of corrective actions.
