Sporting Amenities Industry Receives 2012 Safety Guide

Fulfilling its role of providing industries across Australia with detailed and up-to-date safety information, Pro-Visual Publishing has released the 2012 edition of the Sporting Amenities Industry Guide to Safety, supported by the Sports Turf Association and the Turf Grass Association.

Distributed at no cost to thousands of golf clubs / courses, racecourses, stadiums and parks & reserves divisions of councils across Australia, this guide helps ensure that curators, head greenkeepers, landscape contractors, superintendents and public works officers have the information they need to help establish and nurture a safe and productive working environment. Additional copies are also available upon request.

The latest edition of the guide contains a wide array of topics, each broken down to essential information in an easy-to-follow format that’s relevant to the Sporting Amenities industry. The safe use of Hazardous Materials is a key focus, with information on proper storage, labelling and risk assessment. Spray Drift Management and Irrigation Management are other prominent topics, with a strong focus on adapting watering techniques depending on the weather and tips on minimising waste.

In addition, the Contractor Management section details the process of following legislation that requires employers to consult and advise new workers of specific workplace risks and hazards that may affect their health and safety. Finally, the sections on Machine Maintenance & Safety and Incident Management provide recipients with essential tips not only on how to deal with accidents but also on preventing them altogether.

“The Sporting Amenities Industry Guide to Safety is an easily accessible resource for all members of the industry. I would like to thank all of the sponsors who through their support, were able to have made it possible for the Guide to be distributed free of charge to the industry”, said John Hutchings, CEO, Pro- Visual Publishing.

Recipients of the Guide are also provided with the opportunity to enter a competition in which the best entry wins a $5,000 dollar holiday voucher! (See terms and conditions)
