Click the Doc 3 link for a picture of very dangerous practice.
I was working on a building site today (25/02/16) with various subcontractors and observed this young lad working with an angle grinder with no ear protection. Research has shown that this will cause permanent damage to his hearing. He also had no eye protection. So I took the photograph and then voiced my concerns adding that I had photographic evidence of a breach in health and safety regulations. The job was immediately stopped and within an hour the lad was supplied with protection. The lesson is always have a camera to hand (which most people have on their phones) and use it before you raise your concerns
