Security aren’t responsible for supervision of contractors, they allow access ensuring they are signed in. I wouldn’t expect a security man to know RA/MS, the extent of the works or to check if they have the correct qualification to be doing what they are doing and working in accordance with the HASAW act 1974. A security man won’t escort them to their place of work, they will tell their point of contact on site to do that and show them the welfare facilities and a site induction for escape purposes. If they make security a scapegoat, then they truly are taking the piss.

Agree with this, the fault lies with the people who signed off the work who did not check what was going on. Left it until photos emerged on the Thursday afternoon before the game. Wonder who that could be?

When we do work on the airfield someone from airfield ops, not security, is there at all times for oversight.

They say it's boring 99% of the time, but they're there for when the 1% happens.

We have just picked up a job at an airport and have to have somewhere there watching all time we are on the roof. Apparently it's to stop someone dropping something and it being picked up and put on a plane?

Potentially. It's security and safety. If a contractor has an accident the airport can be in as much **** as the contractor if they've not been doing oversight properly, for example.

The amount of assurance paperwork you have to put in to the CAA is unbelievable.

It was interesting hearing the security measures, I thought raf bases where strict!

God help my company when we start stripping the roof, they have already said someone will be there all day every day
