Plate and Roller Safety Toolbox Talk: Preventing Injuries and Ensuring Compliance
The Plate and Roller Safety Toolbox Talk template from The Health & Safety Zone is an essential training resource for educating employees on the safe operation of vibrating plates and rollers in construction and groundwork. This fully customisable template ensures compliance with UK health and safety regulations while reducing risks such as hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS), rollovers, and struck-by incidents.
Why Plate and Roller Safety is Essential
Vibrating plates and rollers are commonly used for soil and asphalt compaction, but improper operation can lead to serious injuries, including crush accidents, vibration-related disorders, and equipment overturns. UK regulations, including the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER) and the Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005, require businesses to ensure these machines are operated safely and by trained personnel.
