Truck maintenance involves equipment that needs to be used correctly and safely every time, as well as hazards that range from manual handling and falls to the use of grinders and hydraulic presses.

Businesses and managers have a duty to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health and safety of their workers. But what does this mean in practice?

In this session, you’ll explore how to make truck workshops safe, with a discussion including—

• the workshop environment and housekeeping
• how to make common workshop risk areas safe
• how to manage high risk tasks.
