What does R1420 require?

Every logging employer organises a safety committee under Rule 1040 and provides medical and dental services under Rule 1960, every person in charge of a work group is a trained first aider, and every worksite has communication and transport so an injured worker can reach a clinic or hospital. Hand tools are well maintained, used only for their purpose by trained workers, with mushroomed impact tools repaired and blasting and powder-actuated tools used only by trained and authorised workers. No work starts or continues in timbered areas in high winds, heavy fog or hazardous weather or in darkness without adequate lighting; safety shoes, hard hats and other PPE are provided where hazards warrant; machinery decks carry non-slip material; embedded metal is removed from logs before milling; workers returning from the woods are accounted for after every shift with a daily report; dangerous snags are felled; blocks, straps, clevises, lines, rigging, boilers and prime movers are inspected and repaired before use with screw-pin or lock-nut shackles; saw teeth are shielded in transport; nobody rides rigging; lines and loading equipment withstand the imposed strains; refuelling keeps open flame 30 metres away and gasoline out of open containers; and passenger cars carry at most 19 litres of fuel outside the tank with no smoking. Power saws, logging engines and their operation, tractor yarding, and lines, blocks and rigging follow Rules 1424 to 1428.
