The law

Employers must manage workplace transport risks under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and related regulations.

The HSE’s guidance on workplace transport safety (HSG136) covers reversing vehicles and the use of banksmen.

This is awareness training. A supervisor should confirm practical competence on your own site before someone works unsupervised as a banksman.

03 / Questions
