Pagination: 30 pages

Series Code: HSG 144

Every year people are killed or injured by vehicles on construction sites. This book provides practical guidance on how to prevent these accidents by avoiding hazards and controlling the risks arising from the use of vehicles in construction work. This second edition has been revised in light of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007.

It provides information on:

planning and managing vehicle operations on construction sites;
selecting and maintaining vehicles; and
safe driving and working practices.

The key message of this guidance is:

Construction vehicle accidents can be prevented by the effective management of transport operations throughout the construction process.

This book is directed at all those who can influence construction vehicle operations, including clients, designers, employers, managers, the self-employed, employees, safety representatives and plant hirers. It supplements general guidance on workplace transport issues given in Workplace transport safety: An employers' guide HSG136. 1

This book forms part of the Health and Safety Executive's (HSE's) specific guidance for the construction sector, which aims to help all those involved in construction to identify the main causes of accidents and ill health, and explains how to eliminate hazards and control risks.
