CONTROL MEASURES
Existing control measures taken
against the risk
1)bags being put out of the way or
included in the shot so that no one
going passed can trip ion them.
2)staying away from the edges of
the slabs and not messing around
there them as someone could get
hurt
3) We will wear suitable footwear
and will carry an umbrella. We will
walk slowly so that we do not slide.
4) We will walk slowly down the
steps so that we do not trick up.
5) We will be taking the shots when
students will be in lesson so they
will not disrupt or prevent us from
taking pictures or getting in the
way.
