Falls from Vehicles

Falls from Vehicles

Many falls from vehicles occur during periods of loading and unloading.  Your employer should carry out risk assessments with a view to preventing such accidents occurring.   

Appropriate steps to reduce or eliminate the risk should be taken. 

Vehicles steps and handholds should be in good condition and the load area should be kept tidy.  Straps should be safely stored on curtainsiders so as to prevent trips and slips. 

Your employer could also avoid accidents by providing suitable access equipment such as walkways with guard rails. You should also have been given appropriate training in safety practices. 

Serious personal injuries such as back injury, neck injury and head injury can be sustained, even in cases below head height.
