The "Wash Up" Report

During an eight month period from May 2008, all English and Scottish Premier League clubs were visited by the Health & Safety Executive who were reviewing the work at height undertaken by broadcast staff in accordance with Work at Height Regulations.

The HSE has now published its findings and recommendations in a recently published report entitled:

A Review of Work at Height Practices by the Broadcasting Industry in Sports Stadiums used by the UK Premier and Scottish Premier Football Leagues - The "Wash Up" Report.

As an organisation whose members treat the safety of spectators, staff, contractors and other visitors with the utmost concern, the FSOA welcomes the 43 page report.

It can be viewed online via the HSE website at:
