General Workplace & Event Safety
Safety Goes Beyond Fire
Many incidents are prevented by staff noticing ordinary hazards before somebody is hurt.
Slips, trips & falls+
Report or safely address spills, trailing cables, damaged surfaces, poor lighting and obstructions. Protect the area while help is arranged where necessary.
Manual handling+
Do not lift or move loads beyond your ability or training. Use equipment, assistance and the approved method where provided.
Temporary infrastructure+
Report damaged barriers, fencing, structures, signage, flooring or electrical equipment. Do not assume another team has already noticed.
PPE & task controls+
Wear required PPE and follow the risk controls for the task/site. Never bypass a control simply to save time.
An incident that nearly caused injury may expose a failing control. Report it so action can be taken before somebody is harmed.
