Risk Assessment
Some workplace hazards can be easily spotted. However, many can be easily overlooked.
Included on our work checklist are:
• tidy up loose or trailing cabling or hoses
• look out for wet, slippery, unclean or badly surfaced floors
• ensure all areas are well lit
• ensure that chemicals, including cleaning substances, are stored, handled and disposed of properly
• check our equipment for faulty or inappropriate electrical equipment
• manage waste responsibly
• check for bad drainage which may create pooling and report where necessary
• check for exposure to vibration from tools, equipment or processes
• implement sufficient rest breaks
• provide appropriate and well-maintained protective wear
• provide appropriate training
• ensure vehicle loading and unloading operations are carried out safely
• check for exposure to excessive work pressure
