The Livestock Off-Loading and Loading Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) is a tool for safe and efficient handling of livestock during transport operations.

It covers the hazards (animal strikes, crushing, and exposure to diseases like Q Fever and Tetanus), the PPE to wear, vaccination precautions, the checks to make before starting, step-by-step instructions for off-loading and loading, and the steps on completion.

A training and induction register records each worker's induction, training and competency.
