scope:

This Guidance applies to all LU sites and teams whose aim is to deliver outstanding Health Safety and Environmental performance and achieve Beacon Status.

Purpose

The purpose of this Guidance is to develop and spread best practice in terms of site set up and management and site health, safety and welfare. In spreading best practice, we also assist the drive for the economic and efficient approach we need. Beacon Sites should be at the heart of what we do best. This information and picture guide has been prepared to assist everyone in achieving this goal. All the photos are from real LU sites, and show real examples of our achievements, we are sure elements can be improved, and we look to you to help us do so.

The Beacon Site Standard, is contained in 5 interrelated themes, these are:

• Consideration
• Environment
• Cleanliness
• Safety and Health
• Management & Values

Local site specific issues are also considered. What the pictures show are examples of good practice against each of the 5 categories. There is text and a photo guide relating to each question from the Beacon assessment form.
