The window was able to open 254mm, but since 1989 NHS standards have required such a window to only open to 100mm by fitting a window restrictor.

Shortly before the incident the Department of Health required the PCT  to identify any window restrictors that didn’t comply – this was not done!

HSE Inspector Kim Wicks said:

“North East Essex Primary Care Trust failed in its duty to ensure the health and safety of this retired gentleman, … All PCTs must ensure they adhere to recognised NHS safety standards … If North East Essex PCT had done so this unfortunate incident could have been avoided.”

Section 3(1) of the Health and Safety at Work etc Act states: “It shall be the duty of every employer to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, that persons not in his employment are not exposed to risks to their health or safety.”

“When asked about the recession I thought about it and decided not to participate”

Sam Walton, founder or WalMart

The Employer Engagement Team gave an upbeat talk to 50+ delegates at the Retford Business Club today at the Idle Valley Rural Learning Centre.  The talk outlined some of the opportunities available for employers to access funding to cover the costs of training existing staff and recruiting and training new staff as we approach the cusp of economic growth.

“Hard times may continue for a time yet but I’d encourage all employers to ensure they continue to invest in training their staff, having a skilled workforce is just as critical during a downturn as when times are good” 

Tim Gladman Business Development Manager NNC.
