UK Safety Alert

A Driver puts himself at risk whilst working alone.  Please be aware of this Safety Alert and share with your teams:

Returning to site from a vehicle maintenance workshop repair, a Readymix truck mixer Driver heard noises coming from inside the mixer drum. Working alone on site, he reversed the vehicle into the wash out bay to discharge the object causing the noise. He then proceeded to investigate further by attempting to access the drum via the fixed ladder platform, above the handrail and without wearing any protective clothing or equipment.

Thankfully he wasn’t injured, however, due to his risk taking behaviour, he is no longer working on behalf of the business.
