Moving 1tone bag of loose ballast

The task was to move a 1 ton bag of loose ballast from the car park area to a loading area using a wheel barrow and shovel to move the material. One of the hazards were the road  and oncoming traffic. we done it in two teams to see who could do it the quickest and and tidyest.
The PPE was steel toe cap boots to protect our feet, safety goggles to protect our eyes from the the loose ballast spraying into our eyes and gloves to protect our hands from any substances that may be in the ballast.
