Typical hazards & measures
- Weather exposure (wind, rain, heat) — Anchor tents/gazebos with weights, secure canopies, and monitor forecasts. Provide shade in hot weather, non-slip mats in rain, and suspend service in storms/extreme conditions. Inspect setups regularly.
- Food hygiene and cross-contamination — Separate raw/cooked food with colour-coded containers, sanitise prep zones between batches, and log fridge/freezer temperatures. Train staff in HACCP standards and handwashing between handling tasks.
- 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.
- LPG cylinder leaks and fire — Store cylinders upright in ventilated cages, check hoses daily, and fit leak detectors. Keep extinguishers/fire blankets accessible, prohibit smoking, and service appliances annually by Gas Safe engineers.
- Noise from generators and public spaces — Place generators away from customer areas, fit acoustic covers, and comply with event noise limits. Train staff to monitor complaints, restrict late-night operation, and log incidents.
