Can anyone help by providing a copy of their risk assessments for reversing manouvres for LGVs. E.G use of CCTV, single man vehicles, use of banksman, reversing horns etc
Thanks

Ray,
I have no idea of your level of knowledge and experience, so apologies if I'm teaching granny to suck eggs.
It is always dangerous to base your RA on others, as the assessment is by definition supposed to be specific to your site. Relying on someone elses may leave you liable in the case of an accident.
Perhaps you would be better obtaining HSE's guides: "5 steps to risk assessment" and "Workplace transport safety". They also do a free leaflet on reversing vehicles (as well as free summary leafets of the 2 previously mentioned titles).
Bear in mind that workplace transport is one of HSE's priority areas under Revitalising Health and Safety. They expect to see a safe workplace, a safe vehicle and a safe driver.
Kind regards,
Nick Higginson
PS I do have a PPT presentation on workplace transport if you want it. It was done for revision purposes, but may be helpful.
