Typical hazards & measures
- Lighting for evening markets — Fit portable LED lights in prep and service zones, test emergency lighting, and check batteries before each event. Illuminate customer areas to prevent slips/trips, and record inspections.
- Fire from fryers, grills, or open flames — Fit Class F extinguishers, fire blankets, and suppression kits. Position cooking areas away from tent walls, clean grease daily, and train staff in emergency shutdown and fire evacuation procedures.
- Electrical safety with temporary supplies — Use RCD protection on extension leads, waterproof connections, and cable ramps to prevent trips. PAT test appliances annually and inspect before each event. Train staff in safe isolation of faulty equipment.
- Outdoor crowd congestion — Mark queue areas with barriers, maintain clear exits, and post signage. Station staff to manage peak crowds, liaise with event organisers, and restrict access if capacity is exceeded.
- Waste and wastewater management — Store waste in sealed bins with lids, empty regularly, and use licensed disposal sites. Maintain capped wastewater tanks, empty only off-site, and disinfect weekly. Keep logs for regulatory checks.
