Plan your learning
It is important to plan your learning before you start because you may
already have some of the knowledge and skills that are covered in this
Learner’s Guide. This might be because:
• you have been working in the industry for some time,
and/or
• you have already completed training in this area.
Together with your supervisor or trainer, use the checklist on the
following pages to help you plan your study program. Your answers to
the questions in the checklist will help you work out which sections of
this Learner’s Guide you need to complete.
This Learner’s Guide is written with the idea that learning is made
more relevant when you, the learner, are actually working in the
industry. This means that you will have people within your enterprise
that can show you things discuss how things are done and answer any
questions you have. Also you can practise what you learn and see how
what you learn is applied in the enterprise.
If you are working through this Learner’s Guide and have not yet found
a job in the industry, you will need to talk to your trainer about doing
work experience or working and learning in some sort of simulated
workplace.

supervision.
You will be required to demonstrate that you can:

• identify causes and effects of a breakdown or emergency
situation
• apply breakdown or emergency coordination procedures
• render assistance to injured person within the limitations
of duty of care
• identify the risks and hazards of loads
• appropriate precautions and actions are taken for
dangerous and hazardous loads.

Section 1 Evaluating
breakdown and

Section outline
Areas covered in this section are:
• identifying, clarifying and reporting the causes and effects
of breakdown or emergency situations
• applying breakdown and emergency coordination
procedures
• rendering assistance to injured persons
• establishing the risks and hazards of a load and
communicating this to the relevant authorities
• taking appropriate action where the load has been
identified as including dangerous or hazardous substances.


How are causes and effects of a breakdown or

emergency situation identified and reported?
Breakdowns usually occur at the most inconvenient times. Some of the
most common types can be categorised as follows:
• Vehicle type situations
 collision
 bogged vehicle
 breakdown
 overturned vehicle
 accident involving another vehicle.
• Goods
 shifting load
 spillage of fuel or other dangerous goods
 fire or explosion.
• Mechanical
 engine failure
 broken axel
 brake failure
 steering failure
 tyre blow out / flat tyre
 electrical failure.
Causes and effects are identified by gathering and assessing

information from the surroundings and from people involved in the
breakdown or emergency. When you are carrying out an investigation
look for:
• the existence of a hazard
• whether the hazard was properly controlled
• contributing factors
• whether any injured persons wore protective clothing and
followed safety rules
• whether the breakdown or emergency was caused by
negligence, ignorance or carelessness.

In situations of breakdowns and emergencies, including dangerous

occurrences, any injury or death should be reported to the relevant
State, Territory or Commonwealth authority. Health and Safety
Representative within the company must also be notified as well as
your employer as a legislative requirement.
Workplace procedures require forms and documentation to be

completed to cover the specifics of the breakdown or emergency and
may include a section where recommendations can be made to
suggest ways to stop a repeat of the event and action to be taken to
make the area safe.

Activity 1: Identifying and reporting causes and effects of a

breakdown or emergency situation
Imaging you work for a truck haulage company and you receive a
report that one of your trucks carrying chemicals in large drums has
broken down while making deliveries. Your investigation reveals:
• the truck has broken down on a major arterial road
• the truck is partially blocking the left lane of the road
• the engine has failed; reason unknown
• no one is injured
• the truck is not secured, not made safe.
From the information you have collected, how do you interpret the
causes of the breakdown and the effects this breakdown could have?
At the scene of the breakdown how would you ensure that the truck
and its load are made secure?
Who should be notified of the causes and effects of the breakdown?
There is feedback on this activity at the back of this Learner’s Guide.

How are breakdown or emergency coordination

procedures applied?
Depending on the type and extent of the breakdown or emergency
the action taken to coordinate the breakdown or emergency may
include:
• identifying and following established breakdown or
emergency procedures
• evaluating the cause and effects of the breakdown or
emergency
• coordinating emergency procedures and rendering
assistance and first aid if required
• contacting and cooperating with relevant emergency
authorities as required
• controlling traffic at the site of a breakdown or emergency
• taking appropriate action to secure the breakdown or
emergency situation
• obtaining and recording information about the incident
• reporting on breakdown or emergency situation in
accordance with regulatory and workplace requirements.
Broken down vehicles are a hazard to the safety of other road users. If
a vehicle breaks down or becomes unsafe to drive it should:
• be parked it off the road, if possible
• have hazard warning lights switched on
• have reflectors or other warning devices placed at
appropriate places, as required by state regulations.
If you need help securing a broken down vehicle, send someone else
for help, while you stay with the vehicle, otherwise make the vehicle
secure before leaving the vehicle and seeking help.
Transport drivers are bound to face an emergency at some time. This
could be a problem with a load of dangerous goods, skidding, brake
failure, tyre failure or even a fire. Emergencies may also involve
accidents; therefore you must be aware of the state regulations
concerning correct accident procedures to follow.
Workplace procedures describe the actions to be taken in an
emergency situation. The procedures require operators to act
according to warnings in an orderly and calm manner.

Activity 2: Applying breakdown or emergency coordination

procedures
In general terms, describe the actions that you would take to
coordinate a breakdown or emergency?

What assistance should be rendered to injured

persons?
In providing assistance to injured persons you must work within

workplace requirements and the limitations of duty of care.
The first-‐aid warden, a doctor or an ambulance officer are trained to
provide the best medical help and should be the ones to administer
any necessary assistance.
If, however, you are responsible for controlling the site until
authorised personnel arrive, use the standard St. John’s Ambulance
procedure for emergencies, ‘DR ABC’ (Danger, Response, Airways,
Breathing, and Circulation) when attending an injured person. Only use
this procedure if you are trained in expired air resuscitation (EAR) and
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and your workplace policies allow
you to.
The steps used are:
D = DANGER
• Check for any danger to yourself, then other bystanders,
and lastly to the injured person.
• Check for power cables etc. DO NOT enter areas (room or
confined spaces) where air may be contaminated.
R = RESPONSE
• Check for response from casualty.
• Send for help.
A = AIRWAYS
• Check airways of injured person are not blocked.
B = BREATHING
• Check to see if person is breathing.
C = CIRCULATION
• Check the injured person for pulse/heart rate.

There are two critical first-‐aid emergencies which require immediate

attention and for which timely action is absolutely critical. These are:
• If someone stops breathing; artificial respiration must start
as soon as possible before the brain is starved of oxygen
and begins to die.
• Burns; the sooner cool water is applied to the burn, the
sooner tissue damage stops and the severity of the burn is
reduced.
Because time is critical in both of these situations, all employees need
to be aware of the action plan for basic life support (DRABC as
outlined above), how to perform expired air resuscitation (EAR) and
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and first-‐aid for burns.
You may need to take action while you wait for the arrival of the first-‐
aid officer and ambulance. Ideally, everyone should be trained in First
Aid practices.

Activity 3: Rendering assistance to injured persons
In a situation where the transport truck has been involved in a collision
and the driver has been injured, what assistance would you offer to
the driver after assessing the situation?

How are the risks and hazards of loads

identified and communicated to authorities?
At the site of the breakdown, the load type is identified and a risk
analysis is performed to identify any hazards that need to be
controlled. This information is communicated to the relevant
authorities.
Accidents, fires, emergencies, chemical spills and bomb scares are all
hazardous events. A hazard is defined as a situation that can be
dangerous to people or can cause damage. Physical hazards include:
• noise
• badly stacked loads
• damage to the truck
• fuel leakage
• poor lighting and visibility.
Loads can be identified by the safety symbol signage attached to the
vehicles, by looking in the driver’s log book and paperwork and
speaking with the driver to determine amount and type of materials in
the load.

Activity 4: Identifying risks and hazards of loads
In a situation where there has been a truck breakdown, how do you go
about identifying the risks and hazards of the load?
What principle would you follow to control these hazards?

What precautions and actions should be taken

when a load is identified as dangerous or
hazardous?
Once the load has been identified as dangerous or hazardous, you
should make the site safe by securing the area, notify the police, fire
brigade, and any other essential services. Place reflectors or other
warning signs at appropriate places around the truck in accordance
with state regulations. You should also control traffic at the site of the
breakdown or emergency to reduce further damage to property or
injury to people.
If your vehicle breaks down while carrying dangerous goods you

should:
• switch on your hazard warning lights
• set out reflective warning signs in accordance with state
requirements
• warn any people nearby who may be at risk
• follow the instructions of your Emergency Procedures
Guide
• notify the police, the fire brigade and any other necessary
emergency service
• provide assistance and information to the emergency
services
• inform your company what has happened.

Activity 5: Precautions and actions for dangerous and

hazardous loads
If during your investigation you discover the load is dangerous, what
precautions and actions should you take?

Section 2 Consulting
with relevant persons
and authorities

Section outline

• providing assistance and cooperation to authorities
• obtaining and exchanging information about an
emergency.


What assistance and cooperation should be

provided to authorities?
Emergency situations can happen at any time. Events such as
contamination, leakage, fire, a bomb threat or an accident could make
it necessary to secure the affected area and require you to contact the
relevant authorities.
Your employer should have written procedures describing what you

have to do in any given emergency. Training may be required to assist
you to the control of emergency situations when they actually occur.
It is important that emergency procedures are practised so that

everyone is aware about how to deal with emergency situations.
It is important to remain calm when assisting relevant authorities

during and emergency. Communicate to the authorities:
• what happened
• how it happened
• what the damage is
• what injuries have occurred
• the condition of the truck and the load
• the types of goods on board
• any special requirements for the truck and the load.

Activity 6: Assistance and cooperation provided to authorities
List the authorities that you may need to assist and cooperate with in a
breakdown or emergency situation.
What assistance should you provide them with?

How is information about an emergency

obtained or exchanged?
Some records and reports are for internal company use only, while
others must be passed onto the appropriate State and Territory or
Commonwealth Occupational Health and Safety Authority.
Information is obtained by:

• interviewing
• inspecting and observing.
Information is exchanged with relevant OHS authorities and may take
the form of formal reports.

Section 3 Coordinating
breakdown and

Section outline

• suitable measures to control traffic and protect the site of
a breakdown or emergency
• personal security precautions
• requesting assistance to minimise damage to persons or
property.


What measures should be taken to control

traffic and protect a breakdown or emergency
site?
The action you take to control an emergency or breakdown site will in
part depend on the nature of the situation.
You may need to cordon off the site, with signs and assistance from
other persons, until authorised personnel arrive. This will ensure
protection for the injured people or other personnel in the warehouse.
Broken-‐down vehicles are a hazard to the safety of other road users.
They are even more dangerous when the vehicle is hard to see due to
darkness, poor weather, or dangerous location. If your vehicle breaks
down or is unsafe to drive you should:
• park it off the road, if possible
• switch on the hazard warning lights
• place reflectors and other warning devices at appropriate
places, as required by state regulations
• if help is required, send someone else for assistance and
remain with your vehicle. If this is not possible, make sure
your vehicle and its load are secure before you leave and
do not leave it unattended for longer than is absolutely
necessary.
If your vehicle breaks down or is involved in an accident while carrying
dangerous goods you should:
• switch on the hazard waring lights
• set out reflective warning signs
• warn any people who may be at risk
• follow the instructions given in the Emergency Procedures
Guide, which should be in a pocket on the inside of the
driver’s door
• notify the police, fire brigade and any other relevant
emergency services as required
• provide assistance and information to the emergency
services
• inform the person or the company for whom you are
transporting the goods what has happened.

Activity 7: Measures to control traffic and protect a

breakdown or emergency site
Compile a list of transport breakdowns or emergencies which could

potentially occur. For each type decide what control measures would
be needed to protect the breakdown site and what equipment would
be necessary.

Breakdown or Control measures Equipment needed

Emergency
Examples, mechanical
breakdown, chemical
spill, breakdown
putting motorists at
risk


What personal security precautions need to be

taken?
When you investigate a breakdown or emergency always be prepared

to use precautions to protect yourself from danger. Personal security
precautions may include the use of emergency equipment such as:
• personal protective equipment
• first aid materials
• fire extinguishers
• warning signs and indicators
• mobile phone or radio.
Always try to remove yourself and others from potential danger
caused by the breakdown or emergency.

Activity 8: Personal security precautions
What precautions would you take if your investigation identified

physical hazards and hazardous substances were leaking from their
containers?

Why should assistance be requested to

minimise damage to persons and property?
Render First Aid to injured persons, remove them from danger if
possible or if they are badly injured call an ambulance. You may need
to help from others to carry out First Aid.
As well as rendering assistance to anyone injured, you also need to
make sure that the situation does not get worse.
For example, after a car accident there may be debris on the road
which might increase the chances of a further accident or a light pole
may have been hit and the area is in darkness. You should organise
other people to help assist traffic to avoid the situation. Use warning
signs and similar indicators to warn other road users of danger.
Once you have attended to the First Aid of injured people you may
need to reduce the risk of a further accident by clearing up any debris
on the road. You may need to provide light to the area, put up warning
signs or use fire extinguishers to put out fires.

Activity 9: Assistance to minimise damage to persons and

property
List five things you could do after a road accident to minimise injury to
people and damage to property?

Section 4 Completing
documentation

Section outline

• completing documentation and reports on a breakdown or
emergency.


What documentation and reports on a

breakdown or emergency need to be
completed?
Your workplace policies and procedures will explain the types of
documents that need to be completed to report breakdowns and
emergencies and may include:
• injury record forms
• incident record forms
• damage record forms
• safety record forms
• internal reports.
The type of information that you may record in these documents
includes:
• vehicle specifications
• load characteristics
• how it happened
• persons injured
• affects of breakdown or emergency on the environment
• property damage
• what happened
• names, addresses and contact details of other drivers
involved
• registration and insurance details of vehicles involved.
All accidents and injuries, however small, should be reported for legal
and as information records for future analysis. The accident or
incident will be recorded by management or the OHS representative
and an Accident Report Form completed and forwarded to relevant
authorities. If you have a camera available, take pictures of the
accident scene.

Activity 10: Completing documentation and reports on a

breakdown or emergency
In your work area what types of documentation and reports need to
be completed when an equipment breakdown or emergency occurs?

Feedback on activities
The responses provided in this section are suggested responses. Because
every workplace is different, your responses may vary according to your
specific workplace procedures, the equipment available and the nature of the
business.

Activity 1: Identifying and reporting causes and effects of a

breakdown or emergency situation
From the information you have gathered from your investigation of the truck
breakdown you decide that without a mechanic present you are unable to
determine the cause of the breakdown. If the truck can be made operational
or towed back to the workshop then a thorough investigation can be carried
out.
The effects of this breakdown may include:

• traffic delays, since the truck is partially blocking the left lane
• driver frustration due to traffic delays potentially leading to further traffic
delays
• the truck is in a dangerous position which could lead to a collision from
another vehicle
• a collision with the broken down truck and its load of chemicals could
cause a chemical spill
• a chemical spill could cause environmental problems and endanger
people through health problems, fire or loss of life.
It is important that you make the area safe until the truck can be off loaded or
moved to a safer position. In the meantime the truck should have its:
• hazard warning lights switched on
• reflectors and other warning devices placed around the truck
• traffic control to avoid the chance of a collision.
Depending on the nature of the load, you may require to transfer the load to
another vehicle to reduce the risk of damage or contamination to the
environment. If there is a chemical spill authorities such as the police, the fire
brigade and emergency services should be involved to manage the situation
and clean up and remove the danger of the spill.
Your OHS and management team should be notified of any breakdowns or
emergencies to manage the situation and make the area safe.

Activity 2: Applying breakdown or emergency coordination
procedures
Actions to be considered when dealing with a breakdown or emergency are
listed below:
• identifying and following established breakdown or emergency
procedures
• evaluating the cause and effects of the breakdown or emergency
• coordinating emergency procedures and rendering assistance and
first aid if required
• contacting and cooperating with relevant emergency authorities
as required
• controlling traffic at the site of a breakdown or emergency
• taking appropriate action to secure the breakdown or emergency
situation
• obtaining and recording information about the incident
• reporting on breakdown or emergency situation in accordance with
regulatory and workplace requirements.
Always refer to your workplace polices and procedures to correctly
coordinate breakdown and emergency procedures.
Activity 3: Rendering assistance to injured persons
If you are faced with a situation, where there has been an injury associated
with the breakdown, remain calm and assess the situation. Follow First Aid
principles, making sure the area is safe before you render assistance. If a First
Aid warden, doctor or ambulance officer is available then assist them with the
injured person. If you are responsible for controlling the site apply what
assistance you can. You may need to perform expired air resuscitation (EAR)
and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

Activity 4: Identifying risks and hazards of loads
To identify the risks and hazards of the load you need to:
• inspect the location of the truck to ensure it is as safely positioned
• inspect the load for damage or leaks
• reposition the load or have it transferred to another vehicle if it is unsafe
• determine whether the load is dangerous from records or speaking with
the driver.
Definitions for dangerous goods includes:

• corrosive
• flammable
• explosive
• spontaneously combustible
• toxic
• oxidising
• water-‐reactive.
Loads can be identified by:

• referring to the Australian dangerous Goods Code.
• the signage on the truck
• speaking to the truck driver
• contacting the freight company
• reviewing the driver’s documentation.

Activity 5: Precautions and actions for dangerous and hazardous
loads
If your vehicle breaks down while carrying dangerous goods you should:
• switch on hazard warning lights
• set out reflective warning signs
• warn any people who may be at risk
• follow the instructions of your emergency procedures guide
• notify the police, the fire brigade and any other necessary
emergency service
• provide assistance and information to the emergency services
• inform your company what has happened.
Activity 6: Assistance and cooperation provided to authorities
The assistance and cooperation you provide to authorities varies with the
severity of the breakdown or emergency. A list of some of the authorities you
may need to deal with is below:
• police, to control traffic and provide safety to people
• fire brigade, to clear up chemical spills and reduce the risk of fires
• emergency services to minimise damage to the environment.
The assistance you can provide to authorities includes:

• information of the breakdown or emergency situation
• providing equipment to assist authorities contain and control the
emergency.

Activity 7: Measures to control traffic and protect a breakdown or

emergency site
Breakdown or Control measures Equipment needed

Activity 8: Personal security precautions
If your investigation identified physical hazards and hazardous substances at

the site of a breakdown the precautions would you take may include:
• wearing personal protective equipment
• using first aid materials
• using fire extinguishers
• placing warning signs and indicators
• contacting police, fire brigade, ambulance and emergency services with
mobile phones or by radio.

Activity 9: Assistance to minimise damage to persons and property
By seeking assistance at a breakdown or emergency site you will be reducing
your workload so that you can concentrate on your investigation and
collecting information.
Assistance in controlling traffic will reduce the chance of a collision or injury
to people involved with cleaning up the breakdown. The truck breakdown site
can be made safe.
Five things you could do to minimise injury to people and damage to property
includes:
• render assistance to injured people
• clear away debris
• move damaged vehicles to a safe location
• put up warning signs
• organise people to help with traffic flow.
