This procedure applies to all Network Rail managed lever frame signal boxes.
PURPOSE
This procedure provides Network Rail with a consistent and documented approach for the annual risk assessment at lever frame signal boxes.

This procedure mitigates the risk of accidents and health issues for staff employed at sites that have heavy pull levers.
