ONSITE

           ❖ Is the site lit well enough to carry
                out work?

           ❖ What are the conditions of the
                working area? Have you checked
                for ice etc?

           ❖ Is your van protecting your work
                area? This is the safest way to
                protect yourself from oncoming
                vehicles, especially on a busy
                forecourt.

           ❖ Are weather conditions safe to
                work in? High winds, heavy rain,

                sleet/snow?

           ❖ Have you signed-in? Is the site manager aware you are onsite?

           ❖ Do you know the procedures for reporting hazards?

           ❖ Are you aware of the refusal to work procedures?


           Please THINK  back to all your training in risk assessments, managing change and
           reporting/managing hazards.

           ASK questions whenever you need to; there is always someone available to help.


           And finally…..don’t forget to turn your clocks back at 2am on Sunday 31 October.

           Enjoy the extra hour!

           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
