The HSE have published new guidance to help prevent vehicle accidents at work.

The most common accidents are identified as:

    The information includes a checklist for establishing what management control/supervision is in place, what actually happens in practice, route layouts, vehicle safety / suitability / maintenance, loading / unloading operations and driver competence.
