Hi i am an employer with 1 employee i was wandering what everyone else does with supplying power tools and hand tools i spoke to a few others who have told me to supply van and sundry items drill bits ect only they are responsible to bring own hand tools,drills that are used everyday ect anything not used everyday i supply, it seems i am forever buying new tools ect whats everyones thoughts
 
One solution might be if the employee is good in other respects is to get a list written down once of what she / he wants, buy it in and if it is breaks then has to be be demonstrated as duff to you. When the employee leaves at end of contract, deduct at list cost any company items not returned. All power tools issued to a named member of staff. You could ask why they are going missing and ask if he wants a new tool box with padlock.
 
I trained with an electricity board in the early 60s, no tools were supplied. Power tools as such were a rare thing indeed, the first electric drill being shown off by another lad who of course had bought his own. Apart from obvious specialist tools I feel each person should provide their own tools, these are always cared for much better than those bought by an employer. We've come a long way from fibre rawlplugs a hammer and a rawlplug tool, or if the wall was soft enough a hand drill and masonary bit - thank goodness. We even had someone come in to demonstrate how good a new type of screw was, the posidrive, slotted up till then.
