  • Set up the work area and manage vehicle and pedestrian interaction
  • Access pits, manholes and other openings
  • Assess atmospheric and confined-space-related hazards near openings
  • Use electrical CCTV equipment in wet or conductive conditions
  • Handle and operate reels, cables, monitors and inspection equipment
  • Manage exposure to contaminated water, waste and biological hazards
  • Control slips, trips, falls and changing environmental conditions
  • Work around jetting units, vacuum trucks and support plant

Activities & Hazards Covered

Activity Potential Hazards
Planning and site assessment
  • Unidentified underground services or live assets

Atmospheric and confined space related hazards
  • Oxygen deficiency or toxic atmosphere near sewer or stormwater openings
  • Flammable gases or vapours igniting

  • Heat stress, cold stress or fatigue during outdoor work
  • Reduced visibility in rain, low light or glare
Interaction with jetting units, vacuum trucks or support plant
  • Hit by moving vehicles or reversing plant
  • High pressure water or suction injuries where combined cleaning and inspection activities occur
  • Noise affecting communication and warning signals
