• Lifting operations effectively managed
• Where required, a current manbox and or working-at-heights permit is in place
• Current permit to manage excavations in place, services identified, and available for review
• Plant and people are separated, defined exclusion zones are maintained, and entry to work areas is controlled
• Controls such as tool lanyards, barricading and signage in place to prevent and manage the risk of dropped objects where works are occurring above or adjacent
• Changes of process, equipment, temporary and permanent works design re-assessed by competent persons with controls in place and understood by the work crew
