Hand Trolley

The Hand Trolley Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) gives clear, step-by-step guidance to help workers operate hand trolleys safely and efficiently.

It sets out the hazards (a faulty trolley, a falling load, manual handling and poor housekeeping), the PPE to wear, operator training, general safety tips, the pre-operational inspection, step-by-step operation, moving chemical containers, maintenance and storage.

A hazard checklist with Y, N and NA for each item helps confirm every safety measure is in place.
