• How do you store materials and equipment?

  Worksites should always be kept tidy and clean with proper storage for all site supplies.

  It's important that sites:

  • Clearly mark out storage areas to prevent traffic flow disruption and trip hazards.
  • Flammable materials such as fuel should be kept away from other site supplies in specialist flammable storage containers.
  • Put up signs that indicate what’s being stored, and use storage cabinets to keep equipment and materials safely locked away. 
• How to keep on top of ordering site supplies?

  Site supplies are the most common work site items to break down, go missing, or need replacing. 

  Trying to stay on top of replacing site consumables and small accessories requires a significant amount of time and effort.
