Before work starts
Services must be disconnected, the site barricaded, access controlled and adjoining structures assessed. If none of this has happened, the site is not ready for machinery.
During demolition
Workers should be in appropriate personal protective equipment, exclusion zones should be maintained around working machinery, and demolition should follow a planned sequence with supervision on site.
Public and neighbour safety
Debris must not fall outside the site boundary, footpaths and roads should stay usable, and dust should be suppressed rather than allowed to drift into neighbouring homes.
The owner's role
Give accurate information about the building, allow time for proper preparation, and avoid pressing for shortcuts on schedule. Most safety incidents on demolition sites trace back to rushed sequencing.
