Typical hazards & measures
Storage room and equipment access
— Keep storerooms locked when not supervised, clearly label hazardous areas like boiler rooms, and restrict access to ladders or heavy equipment. Include this in hirer induction packs.
Slips and trips on hall floor
— Inspect floors before hire, mop spills promptly with signage, secure cables with covers, and keep exits clear of obstructions. Conduct routine checks during events, especially when food/drink is served.
Volunteer or hirer fatigue during long events
— Encourage breaks, rotate duties like stewarding or catering, and provide seating and hydration stations. Ask hirers to plan schedules that allow downtime for volunteers and staff.
Manual handling of tables and chairs
— Provide trolleys for stacked chairs, train users in safe lifting, and limit stacking heights. Assign set-up teams for larger events and store furniture in accessible areas to reduce strain on hirers.
Decorations and temporary fixtures
— Restrict use of naked flames, avoid taping to fire exits, and require flame-retardant materials for drapes. Inspect temporary staging and decorations for stability and secure anchoring.
