EXCERPTS FROM THE HEALTH AND SAFETY RISK ASSESSMENT 
 
Risks associated with working in a hot atmosphere on the campsite: Campsite staff regularly have to work in a hot atmosphere. This is unavoidable, given that the campsite is primarily an open-air establishment, whose peak season is the height of summer, which means that they have to work more intensively during the summer months. What's more, heatwaves are occurring earlier and earlier, for longer and longer, with increasingly high temperatures, increasing the risks associated with working in a hot atmosphere. At the height of the season (July-August), the risks associated with working in a hot atmosphere are present on an almost daily basis, apart from the rare days when the weather is bad. In these conditions, failure to schedule outdoor tasks as early as possible in the working day is a risk factor. Not taking a break in a cool/air-conditioned area several times during the working day is also a major risk factor. Possible damage caused by working in a hot atmosphere is mainly dehydration. If dehydration is severe, it can lead to physical exhaustion, which in turn reduces concentration and alertness, increasing the likelihood of injury from other sources of risk (e.g. sharp machines/tools). In addition, working in a hot atmosphere for long periods can cause discomfort.
 
Risks associated with vehicle traffic on the campsite: When on foot, campsite staff can be hit or run over by light vehicles (e.g. holidaymakers' cars, small motorhomes), heavy vehicles (e.g. large motorhomes), or small miscellaneous vehicles (e.g. motorcycles, quad bikes, small carts, etc.) on the move, even if all these vehicles have to move slowly on the campsite's traffic lanes, and the probability of running over pedestrians and/or cyclists is therefore low. The likelihood of pedestrians and/or cyclists being run over by a vehicle moving on the campsite is greater when visibility is poor. This can be the case at the end of the day, but also when weather conditions are poor (e.g. thunderstorms). To reduce these risks, it's important to set low speed limits in the aisles of the campsite, to make sure that these are known to everyone (signs), and to remind offenders of these limits. The main potential damage resulting from accidents involving vehicle manoeuvres is human, notably the crushing of one or more cyclists/pedestrians. Several limbs can be affected, including the feet (crushed by a wheel) or the entire torso (against a wall, under a vehicle). Damage can be severe, with fractures, haemorrhaging, crushed limbs and even death.
