Safe Delivery and Unloading of Steel Products Members Price: £0.00 Non Members Price: £0.00 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).

Video – Moving Steel by Crane and Beating the Odds Members Price: £75.00 Non Members Price: £150.00 NASS’ two industry specific videos have been updated and digitally re-mastered to show the minimum standards expected within the stockholding industry. Available as a package in either VHS or Autorun CD, these are the only videos that relate specifically to the steel stockholding and processing industry.
Moving Steel by Crane demonstrates the correct procedures within the handling cycle – and highlights some of the incorrect actions that can, and do, cause serious and sometimes fatal accidents. Included with the video is a questionnaire based on the film, which should be copied and distributed to the employees to whom the video is shown. When completed by them, it can be included with their personnel file as part of their training record, something that the enforcing authorities take very seriously. The package is therefore an important part of a warehouse operative’s training programme.
Beating the Odds is an indispensable part of the induction training for new entrants to the industry, and is valuable refresher training for longer serving employees, reminding them of the hazards in the familiar surrounds of the workplace.
Health & Safety Guidelines Members Price: £50.00 Non Members Price: £100.00 The NASS Health & Safety Guidelines have just undergone a complete revision. It also now incorporates the NASS Load Safety Document and is available in either CD format or hard copy.
