Keeping Water & Sewage Engineers Protected From Hazards

A cartoon graphic explaining the potential hazards you need to consider on site at a water or sewage facility.

Every day, over 50 million premises receive good quality water, sanitation, and drainage services, thanks to the UK’s fantastic framework of utility engineers.

Unfortunately, in the line of duty, waterboard and sewage engineers come across a variety of challenges that could pose significant risk to their health. When working in confined spaces, such as tunnels, shafts and tanks, the risks can include explosion, loss of consciousness, drowning or asphyxiation; it is therefore essential that the correct health and safety equipment is used on site.

Enclosed tanks, treatment facilities, sewage pipes, shafts and tunnels, are just a few of the high-risk environments that engineers are working in, and quite often they are exposed to adverse odours, ammonia, chlorine and phosphorous in the atmosphere.

Our simple water & sewage cartoon graphic reminds water engineers about the hazards they face, and the potential solutions available to keep them safe.
