Posted By Nigel Souster Hello, I've been landed the task of performing a health and safety survey of two manufacturing plants within my company. This will be the first such survey that I have carried out.I think I have covered most topics but wondered if anybody could add anything to my list, that I need to be looking at. The company's business is printing. Legislation Accidents & emergencies COSHH Noise Electricity Risk assessments Manual Handling Environment DSE Machinery PPE Fire Staff Training Traffic Management 1st Aid Work at heights Thanks, Nigel.

Posted By Nigel Souster It's the first time a survey will have been done. We need to see exactly where H & S is at these two sites.

Good luck, Fraser
