You must carry out a risk assessment of all manual handling operations associated with your mobile vehicle eg lifting water containers or LPG cylinders or manoeuvring the vehicle into place.

When possible you must introduce measures to either eliminate or reduce the amount of manual handling undertaken eg provide a trolley for moving LPG cylinders.

Where the risk cannot be eliminated or reduced then the staff must be given adequate instruction and training in manual handling.

Provision must be made for access to a toilet and the toilet must be kept clean and provided with the means to wash hands eg soap, hot water and towel (preferably disposable paper towels).

Where trailers operate from the same site throughout the day arrangements must be made for access to a toilet in nearby premises.

Toilets provided inside a catering vehicle must be suitable ventilated to the outside air. Entry to the toilet compartment must be through a ventilated lobby or from outside the vehicle.

A Portaloo or chemical closet should be provided if no alternative arrangements can be made.
