Complication of job
• Business was opened 13 hours a day with most of drying equipment running on low or not at all during business hours
• The temperature was between 22-24 Celsius as the training centre was environmentally controlled by an air conditioner
• It was the end of winter and the nights were cold. The training centre windows were many and wide. Environment was cold throughout the day which made it hard for the dehumidification to work properly most of the time
• We needed to make sure our equipment was not going to cause any issue for trip hazard, as the training centre had many over 50 years’ plus clientele
