Exhibitors Health and Safety
 
We take our responsibility, as laid out in accordance with the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, very seriously and it is vital that our Exhibitors do the same. The Health & Safety at Work Act embraces the Exhibition and Conference venues as places of work. As an exhibitor, it is essential that you are aware of your obligations of the Act.
These responsibilities are to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare of all employees and any plant, article, substance or system of work, which may be used, are safe and without risk to health.
This includes that all employees and contractors employed by you are provided with information, instruction, training and supervision to ensure the health & safety of themselves and others working, or present, in the vicinity by what they do or fail to do. Main areas which you must give due thought and consideration to before and during your time on site are:
There is an important need to keep walkways clear during build-up/breakdown and throughout the Expo open day.
Only acceptable substances are allowed on-site and full compliance with the COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) regulation is required.
Ensure portable power equipment is only used for the purpose for which it is designed, with safety guards and devices fitted and used. Power leads must be kept to a minimum and not cross walkways. Power requirements must not overload the systems. Such equipment must never be left unattended with power supplied to it. Please do not create a floor hazard at any time.
