Waste Management experts Viridor have launched a new film to help improve health and safety at composting sites.
Designed for people who work on either in-vessel or windrow composting facilities, the film provides the information needed to comply with Health and Safety Executive guidelines and manage the risks of working with these processes. The film covers areas such as personal protective equipment; working with machinery, confined spaces and workplace transport in a composting environment.
Alan Cook, Viridor's health and safety advisor in the South East, said: "We have also developed a multi-choice test to reaffirm the key learning points from the film to ensure operatives have understood the information. The test and marking guide are available to download for use or to use as templates to create your own. We're really pleased to have support from the Association for Organics Recycling (AfoR) and the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) for the film, and to be able to share health and safety advice across the sector.”
