HSE launches safety clampdown on Welsh construction sites
Unsafe practices on construction sites across Wales are to be targeted as part of a national initiative aimed at reducing death, injury and ill health.
To support a month-long drive to improve standards in one of Britain's most dangerous industries, inspectors from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) will visit sites in local authority areas across Wales where refurbishment or repair works are taking place.
Between 19 February and 17 March, they will make unannounced visits to ensure duty holders are managing high-risk activity, such as working at height.
