Knowing Your Limits

This article is an important safety message for customers. Professional tradespeople should know where their competence begins and ends, especially where safety-critical systems are involved.
A Professional Safety Message
Good tradespeople should understand not only what they can do, but also what they should not do. This is especially important where safety-critical systems are involved.
Electrical Work Is Specialist Work
Decorative plaster installers may need to work around light fittings, but disconnecting, reconnecting or altering electrical systems should be carried out by suitably qualified electricians.
Why This Matters
If a tradesperson is willing to carry out work on systems they are not qualified to handle, customers should consider what that says about their wider approach to safety and responsibility.
Protecting The Customer
Professional boundaries protect the property, the customer and the tradesperson. They also help ensure that each part of the project is completed by the right specialist.
