Tell me about it, the idiots that instigate all this tosh don’t get a move on to fill out work permits, sign you in, make you sit and watch an induction video, all the while the bill is going up by the minute, as for work permits 99.9% of people who fill them in have absolutely no idea what you’re doing and how you’re going to do it, and we wonder why nothing gets done and everything goes over budgetIt's also the fear of invalidating insurances and warranties.
20 years ago, where I work, if the lights went out we would try and find the cause. Nine times out of ten you'd figure it out and do a repair.
Now, you have to call a company approved electrician and he has to fill out a risk assessment and sign a visitors book before he does the obvious and flicks the circuit breaker from off to on.
Trying to do it yourself could result in the sack.
