What you do matters...!
This month’s bulletin focuses on what you as hauliers and drivers can do to make a difference.
Whilst there are rules, systems and processes in place at many collection locations, they can still fail.
Therefore the knowledge and common sense of the haulier and drivers, and the need to take responsibility for their own actions is paramount.

• Wear the appropriate Personal Protection
Equipment
o Required for the environment or the
site
o Required for the task
o Required for additional risks identified
by the driver
• Use the appropriate equipment
How can you help your drivers:-
• Communicate information and requirements before
arrival
• Ensure the driver has the correct equipment and Personal Protection Equipment
• Support the driver when he challenges or reports something wrong
• Manage his performance when he does something wrong
