NASC re-joins AIF

The UK’s National Access & Scaffolding Confederation (NASC) has re-joined the Access Industry Forum (AIF) – which brings together associations in the work at height sector.

The confederation was originally a member, but left the forum four years ago. However, following the successful introduction of TG20:13 good practice guidance for tube and fitting scaffolding in 2014, and publication of the updated SG4:15 preventing falls in scaffolding operations in 2015, it opened discussions to rejoin.

NASC managing director Robin James said: “We are extremely pleased to be re-joining the Access Industry Forum. NASC, and CISRS (the UK scaffolding industry training scheme) will contribute a great deal to debate and discussion within AIF, and will bring a wealth of expertise in terms of the work at height agenda and training in the access sector. The confederation is looking forward to re-engaging with its partner AIF members during the second half of 2016.”

Access Industry Forum chairman Peter Bennett added: “We are delighted to welcome NASC back into the AIF fold. The presence of NASC as the representative trade body for the UK scaffolding industry will bring a welcome additional dimension to debate and discussion at AIF.”
