Leaders of the Construction Industry Scaffolders Record Scheme (CISR) have published the guides to explain what the eight different skills card in the industry mean.

David Mosley, CISRS Training Scheme Manager said: “The main reason why some scaffolds are seen erected unsafely is due to lack of training.

“Hopefully clients and contractors will use these two new tools to help them understand the CISRS scheme and enable them to prevent non-skilled scaffolders erecting dangerous scaffolds”
