Typical hazards & measures
Catering and use of kitchen facilities
— Provide clear kitchen rules, restrict children from hot zones, and ensure cooking appliances are supervised. Display allergen information when food is sold, and insist hirers clean surfaces and equipment after use.
Overcrowding of hall space
— Set a maximum occupancy based on fire regulations, monitor numbers at entry, and provide overflow rooms or marquees if needed. Ensure chairs and tables don’t block fire routes during setup.
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.
Fire safety in hall
— Test alarms weekly, keep extinguishers serviced annually, and brief hirers on evacuation plans. Ensure escape routes are signposted and illuminated, and assign marshals at larger gatherings.
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.
