Dangerous Tile Removal : Untethered Axe & Missing Safety Gear
Показать описание
A Little Wisdom Helps You Become Smarter !
In the video, a construction worker removes loose exterior tiles from a multi-story residential building while seated on a wooden plank suspended by ropes from the roof. Using the blunt end of an axe, he strikes hollow-sounding tiles that break away and fall to the ground. Three primary safety concerns are visible:
The worker isn’t wearing a safety helmet, leaving him unprotected from falling debris.
The axe lacks a safety tether, creating a drop hazard for people below.
No protective netting or ground barriers are installed to contain falling tiles.
The suspended work platform appears to rely solely on roof-mounted anchor points without secondary fall protection. Tile fragments can be seen falling freely past multiple balcony levels. While the method effectively removes damaged tiles, standard safety protocols for high-rise exterior work – including secured tools, debris containment systems, and personal protective equipment – are not being followed. Proper procedures would involve using certified suspended scaffolds, tool lanyards, and establishing safety zones at ground level.
