Great insight into what went on behind the scenes.
I have now figured why there was a transition from the manual booking system to a computer based one.
No one could get around this
Identify work activities where a fall hazard may exist; and
Where a fall hazard is identified, develop and implement management strategies according to the hierarchy of control.
For falls of less than two metres:
Develop and document safe work procedures (SWPs) to outline the way in which the hazard will be managed; and
Provide training to employees to provide them with the skills and knowledge to do their work safely
If there is a risk of a fall of more than two metres, specific duties apply:
Perform the task on the ground if possible;
Use a passive fall prevention device;
Use a work positioning system to ensure employees work within a safe area;
Install a fall arrest system to limit the risk of injuries in the event of a fall;
Use a fixed or portable ladder incorporating a risk assessment, safe work procedures and training; and if you are not able to work on the ground or on a solid construction prior to working at height then;
Establish emergency procedures and First Aid provision prior to undertaking the task;
Review documented safe systems of work for contractors who are required to work at height;
Make sure ladders are compliant with AS 1892; and
Monitor the work at height practices of all employees and contractors to ensure they are working safely.
Please don't let these bureaucrats know that aircraft get higher than 2 metres!!
