CFM 4TD-02 Blind spots on heavy vehicles are not considered in workplace layout

 Blind spots on Heavy Vehicles are not considered when deciding on workplace layout (during mine or shift planning), caused by:

• Location of walkways without adequate sight lines
• Failure to establish or improve intersection demarcation and/or lighting

 This Credible Failure mode is addressed by:

• BI-01P.13 Sight lines and blind spots from outside – information prepared for people who work around vehicles
• BI-04D.03 Road design guidelines specify walkway designs considering vehicle sight lines
• BI-05D.01 Clear accountabilities for managers, superintendents and supervisors are included in comprehensive, site relevant road design guidelines and traffic management plans
• BI-05S.05 Appropriate system for scheduled inspections include structured checklists and defect reporting
