| | Safe Delivery and Unloading of Steel Products
This document offers practical advice to everyone involved in the delivery and unloading of steel, and will be particularly useful for stockholders and steel users who receive steel at their premises, as well as those delivering it. It highlights the planning that should take place to ensure that steel can be safely unloaded on site, as well as the practical precautions necessary during the unloading procedure.
The information in the document is based on joint work by NASS and UK Steel (representing the steel producers and steel converters in the UK). The HSE and Wolverhampton MBC (representing Local Authorities in the Local Authority Partnership Scheme with NASS) were consulted during the preparation of the guidance and endorse it as good industry practice which updates and supercedes the information in HSE guidance "Safe Unloading of Steel Products" (INDG313).
