Typical hazards & measures
- Food allergies and hygiene — Label all ingredients, provide allergen info, and keep vegetarian and allergen-safe prep separate. Volunteers should complete basic hygiene training.
- Raffle and prize security — Store raffle items in a secure, supervised room until needed. Record numbers sold, and prevent overcrowding at announcement time with clear signage and PA calls.
- Cooking stalls or barbecues — Place fire blankets, extinguishers, and first aid nearby. Train volunteers, keep food prep areas away from crowd flows, and ensure gas bottles or hot oil are guarded.
- Cash handling and security risks — Use mobile card readers, limit float size, keep cash out of sight, and arrange secure banking. Use two-person counts and assign a trusted team member for secure transport.
- Slips and falls from wet or uneven ground — Walk the site, highlight hazards with tape or signage, provide non-slip mats, and cordon off unsafe areas. Reinspect regularly, especially outdoors or after rain.
