One might even say it was getting fascinating...

argumentum ad hominem aside; an article to the point: http://www.pobonline.com/articles/98237 ... ing-safety

“With the advancement of technology, in many cases, that crew of four has been reduced to one. You’ve got a person who’s using robotics to actually do the survey, so you significantly reduce the opportunity for some of the younger folks to gain field experience and just practical experience; also to give them the opportunity to find out what the field is about.” Article

If you can't access the link, obviously someone doesn't want you to be able to.

I was sent this article by CLSA member and am sharing.

Can we all agree this mandate is not for safety.

The u-tube CLSA audio was a good show, it is clear this
mandate is driven by the union for financial gain otherwise min wage observers
could be used for safety.

I heard over and over that some surveyors are pressured by clients to limit crew.
Dont work in the big city but still I have never been pressured by clients about
the number of crew I use, if fact clients appreciated that we are fully staffed and
get the job done on time.

This is a hot subject and would like to see the Member Numbers on where we stand with location and public or private info.

"Don't Mandate Me Bro."

I support all aspects of a minimum two person crew doing a job. For safety reasons, for boredom reasons, for mentoring, etc. I hate going out alone, I have nobody to laugh about but myself.
