HSE has produced a set of posters to promote awareness of the hazards involved. These can be used as training aids, for briefing purposes and for display in workplaces.

Safe maintenance - Set of 5 posters

NAPO in... Safe maintenance

A consortium of European health and safety organisations, including HSE, has produced an animated DVD to support this campaign.

The film sets out the benefits of good health and safety practices through a number of short stories which use humour to help explain important risk messages to a workforce. The film is likely to be most effective when it is used in a training environment. The film is made up of the following chapters:

• Caution hazards!
• Assess the risk
• Identify the unknown
• Act on risks
• Risky combination
• Eliminate the hazard
• Safety pays
