Provide heritage handling training and document any protective actions taken.
- Heritage damage during repairs — Train all workers in conservation techniques, prohibit unauthorised alterations, and use conservation-approved materials. Document all interventions for records.
- Chemical exposure from paints, solvents, or adhesives — Ventilate work areas, use low-VOC products where possible, and provide gloves, masks, and eye protection. Store substances in labelled containers and remove waste promptly.
- Rodent or pest exposure during maintenance — Wear gloves and masks when working in lofts or storage, disinfect areas after work, and contract pest control services if infestations are suspected.
- Vehicle access for maintenance deliveries and contractors — Designate loading zones away from pedestrian entrances, restrict vehicle times to quiet periods, and use banksmen for reversing. Keep gates locked outside work hours and maintain clear signage for drivers. Inspect surfaces to prevent damage from heavy loads.
