The Strategic Forum Plant Safety Group has published a guidance document
on the "Safe Use of Dumpers": https://www.cpa.uk.net/sfpsgpublications
This publication was produced following a number of serious injuries and death occurring to operators operating forward tipping dumpers or those near to a moving dumper.
The safe use guidance is designed to help those involved with planning and carrying out dumper activities achieve a better awareness of the particular risks involved and the measures that can be put in place to mitigate those risks and is aimed at forward tipping types as they are commonly used on most construction sites to predominately transport earth and materials.
The guidance is aimed at clients, contractors, users, owners, operators, manufacturers, training bodies and those that maintain forward tipping dumpers.
