Safety records
IRATA is committed to the production of annual statistics as they clearly demonstrates the excellent safe working record of IRATA members and the effective controls IRATA has in place through its Training and Registration Scheme for Operatives, its "General Requirements for Safe Working" and "Guidelines" and, not least, the stringent vetting procedure all companies undergo before becoming irata members to ensure a safe working environment within the industry.
The IRATA Work and Safety Analysis, featuring these statistics, is independently compiled by Dr C H Robbins. The Reports are available in .pdf format (you will need Adobe Acrobat to read these files.)
