A truck mounted scaffold

Spotted by a reader on a job site in Glasgow, Scotland, scaffold in action on the back of a van.

The two men clearly needing to gain access to work on a wall some four metres above the ground, used a 1.8 metre room scaffold on the back of a van/pick up and then worked half on half off.

While they have all the PPE gear on… helmets, hi-viz vests and most likely steel toecap boots… yet when it comes to access equipment we are in Death Wish territory.
