It is essential that all personnel entering the Venue are aware of their responsibilities in relation to work health and safety. CitiPower Centre is a workplace, and due to the nature of the work, venues can be hazardous even to those who are familiar with them. We urge you to exercise caution at all times.

Working at Height You have a general duty to take reasonable care for your own health and safety, and that of others who may be affected by your work, and to cooperate with your employer’s efforts to make the workplace safe If there is a risk of a fall of more than 2 metres, specific duties apply. You must identify any task where a person may fall more than two metres. If it is reasonably practicable, you must eliminate the risk- (e.g. by doing the work on the ground or on a solid construction). If this is not reasonably practicable, you must control the risk using the following measures in order of priority, so far as is reasonably practicable: • use a passive fall prevention device • use a work positioning system to ensure employees work within a safe area • •
install a fall arrest system to limit the risk of injuries in the event of a fall use a fixed or portable ladder, or implement an administrative control. If you use a control measure other than working on the ground or on a solid construction, then you must establish emergency procedures covering the rescue of an employee in the event of a fall and the provision of first aid. Any equipment or materials used to control the risk of a fall must be appropriately designed and constructed for the task and the conditions it will be used in. In addition, fixed or portable ladders must be fit for purpose, appropriate for the duration of the task, and set up properly. 10
To Do’s – Emergencies The extent of the evacuation or response required will differ from one emergency to another. A partial or total evacuation will be in most cases instigated by the Chief Warden and involves the release of all exit gates at the venue. The purpose is to direct and assist the public to the safest exit ensuring an orderly evacuation of the venue by utilising Cricket Victoria Match Staff. However, if necessary, Match Staff may have to self-evacuate from the immediate area of a danger prior to the activation of the evacuation plan. Full Evacuation: All persons will be required to vacate the venue; Partial Evacuation: Selected areas or persons will be required to vacate the site In the event of an emergency, the Chief Warden will facilitate a message asking patrons to leave the venue immediately by the safest, nearest exit in an orderly manner. If safe to do so all staff will assist with the evacuation of the venue. Do 1. Listen to any Emergency Messages 2. Make safe any plant or equipment 3. Follow the direction of the chief warden
