Cómo controlar: adverse weather
- Check forecasts and Bureau of Meteorology warnings before starting, and reschedule outdoor or at-height work when severe weather is expected.
- Set wind stop-work triggers for cranes, elevated work platforms and scaffold work, using the manufacturer's limits for each item of plant.
- Secure loose sheeting, materials and tools, and take down signs or screens that could become windborne in strong gusts.
- Stop work and move to shelter at the first sign of lightning, keeping away from tall plant and metal structures.
- Inspect scaffolds, excavations and access routes after storms or heavy rain before anyone resumes work.
- Provide wet-weather gear and slip-resistant footwear, and treat wet surfaces as slip hazards until they dry.
