Scaffolding is a working platform used to work at height. Scaffolding is available in various forms to perform work activities in various locations which include the following ones;

1. Tower Scaffolding;
2. Single Scaffolding
3. Cantilever Scaffolding
4. Suspended Scaffolding

The erection and dismantling of the scaffolding is also a hazardous activity due to various factors including the fall from height during erection, contact with overhead lines, imbalance during scaffolding erection and dismantling, etc.

Moreover, if the scaffolding is erected by an incompetent person the risk of collapse exists, and the structure collapse can lead to severe consequences. It is mandatory that each and every step is assessed by a competent person before the erection/dismantling job commencement and make sure it is done safely. All of the hazards and risks are accounted for and risk level is mitigated to minimum workers are provided with a Safe System of Work (SSoW), a Safe Workplace, Correct tools, Training is provided, and workers are provided with PPEs and Fall Protection to ensure the minor risk of fall is also countered.

All of this can be achieved if the Job Safety Analysis is performed. The job safety analysis is a Hazard Identification technique that divides the main activity into steps and even further to ensure each step of the activity is analyzed & assessed individually and relevant controls are adapted for implementation. In layman's terms, the risk associated with each step of the main activity is assessed separately and managed.
