Health, Safety & Environmental Bulletin No 281
29 December 2011
Disc Cutters
Please see enclosed self-explanatory bulletin from Artelia.
Although we do not generally use this type of equipment but should always ensure that all equipment
that we bring onto site is safe and suitable for the location it will be used. Always inspect all tools and
plant before use and carry out a last minute risk assessment (LMRA) to ensure it is appropriate to use it
on the specific job and site.
If any equipment is damaged or defective, or you are concerned about its suitability, contact your
supervisor.
Risk management is a big step towards accident prevention; however, it is dependent on the risk firstly
being identified, then controlled. We need safety awareness to be instinctive and form an integral part
of both our working and home lives; it is this, in turn, that may save the lives of others. Remember: if
shared, risks can be mitigated before they pose a threat.
If you have any queries regarding the Safety Bulletin content or require further information please
contact any staff member of Xmo Strata Ltd.
