6. Why are we here? READ OUT:
Since tRIIO started to use Global Safety Stand Downs five have related to incidents that have happened at some stage of the delivery process.
In the UK, whilst there have not been any fatalities there have been several incidents with the potential to be a lot more serious than their actual outcome.
We are going to start by looking at some of these and some of the factors that caused them.

All those involved in loading and unloading on site must have the specified toolbox talk
Vehicle Marshal training is not a substitute for having this toolbox talk
READ OUT
This toolbox talk is the second mandatory requirement – the first being the loading and unloading management plan.
At present there is no recognised and agreed training standard including loading and unloading. This toolbox talk is to ensure those physically undertaking the loading and unloading activity have the knowledge and understanding to prevent incidents occuring. It is in addition to any training the individual may have for being a vehicle marshal.
There is both a hard copy version and a PowerPoint version.
INSTRUCTIONS TO TRAINER
