WRG Health & Safety Video
Buckingham Canal Society (BCS) operates work parties under terms of Insurance provided through the Inland Waterways Association (IWA). As a part of this, we work within many of the principles and methods of Waterway Recovery Group (WRG).
You will always be given a Health and Safety (H&S) briefing for any work party. All work parties involving construction machinery, often referred to as plant, will require that you confirm you have watched the video below within the past 12 months.
WRG’s Health & Safety Video contains important Health & Safety information that all new volunteers need to know. All volunteers are required to watch the WRG Health & Safety video before they go on site. Please watch video below to find out about WRG’s on site Health & Safety.
This video is only an introduction to site safety, and does not remove the need for a volunteer to have a full briefing about a specific site/project.
