Typical hazards & measures
Power supply and generator safety
— Use qualified electricians for all power setups. Install RCDs, weatherproof cabling, and safe routing. Fence generator zones, provide ventilation, and store fuel in locked cages with spill kits and extinguishers.
Lighting and visibility after dark
— Place lighting towers at high-traffic areas, entrances, and exits. Provide headtorches for staff, backup batteries for towers, and reflective tape on obstacles. Check lighting nightly during multi-day events.
Safeguarding for children and vulnerable people
— Designate a staffed “lost child point,” provide ID wristbands, and train volunteers in safeguarding protocols. Escort separated individuals calmly to the reunion point and keep contact logs.
Weather conditions and environmental exposure
— Monitor forecasts continuously. Provide shaded rest areas, rain shelters, grit or mats for slippery surfaces, and contingency plans for severe conditions. Halt or reschedule if unsafe weather persists.
Slips, trips, and uneven terrain
— Inspect venues for hazards, use mats and ramps, and mark uneven areas. Install non-slip flooring in wet areas. Assign staff to guide vulnerable visitors through challenging terrain.
