Typical hazards & measures
Carbon monoxide exposure (generators & grills)
— Position generators and grills outside the truck or ensure forced ventilation. Install CO detectors with alarms, test monthly, and service equipment regularly. Train staff to recognise symptoms of CO poisoning and maintain incident response plans.
LPG gas leaks and explosions
— Install gas detectors with alarms, test regulators and hoses daily, and store cylinders upright in ventilated cages. Train staff in leak testing (soapy water method), fit auto shut-off valves, and carry out annual servicing by Gas Safe engineers.
Structural stability of truck (ramps, hatches, awnings)
— Inspect serving hatches, fold-out counters, and ramps daily before use. Anchor awnings securely, lock hinges, and remove damaged equipment immediately. Train staff to set up and dismantle safely, and record inspections in vehicle checklists.
Noise from generators and equipment
— Place generators at a distance, fit acoustic shielding, and maintain regularly to minimise excess noise. Train staff to monitor levels and restrict generator use at night. Comply with venue noise regulations and log complaints/responses.
Slippery floors in compact workspace
— Fit anti-slip mats and textured flooring inside the truck, clean grease/oil spills immediately with spill kits, and provide staff with slip-resistant footwear. Keep walkways clear of clutter and inspect surfaces hourly, logging checks in cleaning records.
