Health, Safety & Environmental Bulletin No 226

                                       K Parmentier – 06 January 2011



                                                       Barriers



           Please see enclosed self explanatory bulletin from Coteba.

           Always ensure barriers are secure, complete, visible, and suitable for the task.  In windy
           conditions  this  may  require  additional  weights  such  as  sand  bags to be placed on the
           barrier support feet.

           If a barrier / signs blows over, don't just pick it up and carry on - it will just blow over
           again, if you can't secure it 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.
