Before discharging the load, the driver must check the area in which the load is to be
deposited is clear of personnel and obstructions.
The driver should not leave the cab unless suitably equipped with Personal Protection
Equipment (PPE), consisting of a hard hat, gloves, safety boots and a high visibility vest or
jacket, plus when appropriate eye and ear protection, and the handbrake applied.
Leaving the tipping area
A vehicle leaving site after delivery of the load should be subjected to the same basic
damage and cleanliness checks as when leaving the loading point. If the vehicle has
operated in ‘off road’ conditions and if there is any likelihood of debris blowing out of the
body, it should be adequately sheeted. The rear lamps and reflective marker boards should
be checked for cleanliness and damage.
