Safety in the communications tower industry will be the focus of "Tower Week," an international event running from Nov. 2 to Nov. 6, 2015.
Organized by the UK-based Prefabricated Access Suppliers' and Manufacturers' Association (PASMA), Tower Week was established to promote the safe use of towers and bring focus to ideas, the exchange of information and the development of height safety in general.
PASMA members will deliver a series of events and activities throughout the UK focusing on the versatility of towers across multiple industry sectors and their safe and productive use. There will be something for everyone who uses or supervises the use of towers.
PASMA Managing Director, Peter Bennett said, "Tower Week is a collaborative effort between PASMA and our partners.Together we are aiming to produce a special week that will benefit the industry and make a real difference to keeping people safe."
"With an increase in partnership and some new initiatives,Tower Week 2015 promises to be the biggest and best yet."
Tower Week will begin with a special free webinar at 14.00 on the 2nd of November, which will feature a panel of mobile access tower experts discussing tower safety and best practice.
Tower Week will also help its members raise funds for charity through the ‘High Tower Challenge’, which will see PASMA members gain sponsorship by building towers to the height of famous buildings, such as the Shard in London, throughout the week.
