but sadly common sense isn't always so common. we used to regularly have people turn up with deliveries and no practical method of getting them unloaded.

A big ramp and stop quickly in reverse. You can unload almost anything that way As long as it's insured that is!

Digs.

You should find yourself getting asked more often for RAs, Method Statements and proof of competency - the Corporate Manslaughter Act will see to that. If you are a contractor on a site, the site is responsible for ensuring that you are safe and that you work safely. If they fail to do so they can be liable in the event of an accident. I have sent contractors of site for failing to be able to follow their own method statement and I will stand behind that decision 100%. Sorry, but your 'common sense' when you are a stranger to me does not cut the mustard.

NOT instructions. It is how it will be done, not how to do it. A subtle, but important, distinction.
