One of the main causes of health and safety incidents at Duntilland is from slips, trips and falls caused by objects left on the ground. The long water hose, which is used to fill the water tanks on trucks, is the main problem. In order to avoid the possibility of the hose lying around, a fire reel has been installed, which can be swivelled around a vertical pivot and has been placed at a suitable height to prevent the need to bend over, thus reducing the risk of back problems. A warning sign has also been installed as a reminder that the hose should be wound back onto the reel after use.
