[QUOTE="unlacedgecko, post: 5769724, member: 19130"] Production facilities are awful places to operate as a haulier. I worked a contract (non Ag) where curtain side trailers were loaded on site. Drivers were not allowed to enter the trailers on site. If there was a problem which required the driver to enter the trailer to rectify he had to leave site to do so. This led to drivers entering and working on trailers on the side of a live road, risking death/life changing injury as well as road congestion. The policy had nothing to do with reducing risk/health and safety. It was purely to reduce the exposure of the facility to personal accident litigation. I didn't work there long. [/QUOTE]
