The Team Leader Is Wearing A High Visibility Vest Which Is Inadequate 🦺🎥🛸❌

Today we take a look around Webasto Roof Systems Ltd, Unit 7/Kingsbury Business Pk/Kingsbury Rd, Sutton Coldfield B76 9DL.
We walk up the side of the building to see where it leads, and have a good look at all the different stillages they use to move the Sun Roofs around which they manufature for Jaguar Landrover.
We then stand on the public footpath and have a quick peek into the back yard before we take the drone over for a good nosey around.
We are spoken to by a few members of staff who tell us we are being unsafe and ask us to leave the public footpath.
We try to educate them about filming and flying from a public place and also about how the Team Leader is not wearing a compliant High Vis Vest but we get nowhere and are still asked to leave.

Enjoy!

You're unsafe on the footpath, says the man standing in the road.

[@mrbilsulivan]

Then stands on the same footpath🤣

I made a comment on the exact same thing but a few ppl didn’t seem to get the joke 🥴🤣🤣

[@focuspocus3690]

Perhaps they're referring to the standard of their drivers by suggesting you're unsafe on a pavement. Maybe the owner of the car parked fully on the pavement works there too.

There's no risk standing on the footpath, apart from if the vehicle driver is driving without due care and attention. They really should stop trying to enforce traffic safety to members of the public when it is not needed, and maybe enforce some advice to the pavement parking that may cause a danger to members of the public, causing them to step into the roadway, into the path of those dangerous vehicles !!

I absolutely love your no nonsense approach these days.

[@concernedindividual7056]

Great video. Admitting that the public are in danger on the public pavement is admitting they are responsible before any accident or incident takes place. The calibre of drivers must be well below average in that case. Didn't notice if the little towing vehicle or trailer had number plates as are legally required to use the public road. At the same time wouldn't the insurance be void if the vehicle was not fit legally for the road.????? Petty deserves to be replied with requirement to be legally petty.

If I was ever spoken to by an employee I would walk in and demand the management, tell them I was recording on the public footpath out of public interest, but now im recording for my safety and to see how you deal with employees who enter the public then tell the public to leave. management well wet themselves hearing that.

[@ronprince1478]

Their statement that you are unsafe on the pathway is a serious admission that their drivers are incompetent and regularly drive on the public paths and not on the road. Serious retraining and testing needs to be carried out asap. David did a dummy spit because he didn’t get his way🤔😅😂🤣 I half expected him to throw himself on the ground and thrash around.😂😈.

Great Educational Audit and interesting insight to company. Staff totally out of there depth but least they didnt threaten you with the Police lol. Keep up the great work DJ

[@roberttew5928]

can't understand, you normally approach companies to explain what you're doing yet someone approaches and very politely answers uour questions but when trying to see what your doing you become quite offish and rude. Then leads off to safety for no reason agreed. Don't know why you behaved as you did in first instance contrary to you're normally interactions.

[@7Lace77]

A few times I have noticed that auditors tend to like the aggressive interactions, cos when they are friendly the auditor will sometimes become very arrogant, passive aggressive or just somewhat nasty.

[@alexworz4135]

You don't have to wear hi vis yellow or orange. The screen shot you put up confirms that

[@thenewbeester]

If I was buying/leasing a commercial property I would definitely be aware of the PUBLIC footpaths...get off our land...well it's a public footpath/right of way ! It always surprises me just how close members of the public can get to business premises quite legally on a footpath ! But if you can stand on a public footpath/right of way and see into a business, people working/processes and it computer screens then that's a BIG problem !! Guy at the end just made himself and the business look silly 🥱

[@martinbobfrank]

I've worked in places with different coloured hi-viz jackets, and they tended to be colour coded to that person's responsibilities. Yellow for normal staff, green for first-aid, purple for foremen or supervisors and black for a manager. The reason I saw was that in a factory or warehouse with multiple (hundreds) people, you could quickly make out who you needed; and it did work. The only other thing was that the fluorescent strips had to be on the outside as if the lights failed (even on a bright summer's day), you were still visible to vehicles (reflection) etc. You could get a warning if you put the vest on with the fluorescent strips on the inside and not visible! It's the first time I've even seen it on the HSE website. If you were in any danger on a publicly accessible piece of land, no matter who owns it, someone somewhere should have risk accessed it, and would themselves be accountable for any accident or injury on it; not you. The general public should be classed as stupid and unaware of any risk or injury, so there should be NO risk.

[@kevkonk]

Great video, not far from me , have actually visited there too. Absolutely love this channel…👍👍👍👍

[@svenpoletka5236]

What a nasty company, hope they aren't spouting toxic stuff in the atmosphere or water supply as well!

[@thomasdoran2363]

I think Webasto need to address the fact they are using an untaxed, roadworthy vehicle on the public highway - that's FAR more important an issue As well as blocking the footpaths with employee cars They get very defensive & confrontational when they're caught out!

[@DJAUDITS]

I am kicking myself that I didn’t focus on using it on the public highway. Well spotted 👍

[@timg6252]

Great audit. I still amazes me the authority some people think they have.

[@carolined5923]

And many of them do not realise the public are aware of the law too. Many years ago many companies used to film their companies and what they did with a tour and put it on youtube themselves

[@susanshone8185]

These employees are a disgrace and full of there own importance well done DJ you put them bang to rights there perceived authority is laughable they need to look at all the vehicles parked on the public paths which I'm sure are illegally parked and a hazard for the public meaning they would have to walk in the road causing major issues for this company they need to have a good look at themselves and put there house in order great work 👍 DJ finding them out

[@kevindixon9854]

I've always thought the black high viz a joke . company's love to give employees a status with different colour high viz .high viz is yellow or orange but we are forced to wear yellow at Warburtons so we don't clash with there trucks which are reddish orange .I get that but we stand next to our trucks for an hour on there site which are painted yellow so we just blend into our truck . health n safety have the last say until we dead cos the fork lift didn't see me .

To wear a black HI-viz in daylight or a well-lit environment is basically acceptable, there is only guidance on preferred colours, including pink, as long as it has reflective material. Just as long as he is following company policies, risk assessments there is no problem,,,,,

[@kenworkman3964]

Wasn't it PJ who, when advised he was in danger from lorries, asked if they had Stevie Wonder driving for them? Great video again DJ!

[@collieri]

It's not been mandated in law. Like most HSE information it's meant as guidance. Risk assessments will identify and form policy however with the amount of variants in any given application it's impossible to set binary (legal) rules. Yours, H&S professional of more than 25yrs.

[@DJAUDITS]

Would you agree that a Black High Vis vest does not comfirm to ISO 20471 as shown here? - www.iso.org/standard/42816.html I would value your proffesional opinion.

I may have misheard but DJ does say it's "guidance"

[@frankpalfreyman8183]

25 years experience wow🤥 and you are ONLY 35 hahaha

[@collieri]

@@DJAUDITS A black hi-vis is unusual, but QMS and QA standard breaches aren't covered under criminal law, per se, unless there's an incident. Hi-vis under the law is simply "adequate for the job". And as I said before that can't be binary because of the wide number of uses and applications. All comes down to risk assessment. More fool the company if they were to allow inadequate clothing if/when someone got hurt. It also isn't mandatory for a business to have a quality management program. Most do, but again it would be unusual for it to be so granular that it would cover the colour and type of hi-vis vests (unless the wearing of was important and integral to business main activities and associated risks). Hope that helps. Finally, big shout out to the abusive ghouls sending me love for what I thought was a passing and innocuous comment.
