· Venues are strict in their enforcement of the OH&S requirements which affects all companies involved in exhibitions including organisers, stand builders, logistics companies and exhibitors.

· Move In and Move Out deemed ''construction zones'' meaning that clearly identifiable safety clothing is to be worn at all times. Children are not permitted in the exhibition hall at these times.

· The Exhibitor Manual has details of OH&S requirements of exhibitors and the companies they appoint to assist in their involvement in the show.

· Exhibitors are responsible for passing this information on to these companies.

· Additional copies of the manual are available for the exhibiting companies to pass onto their suppliers.

· Minimum 3 metre clear aisles must be maintained at all times.

· Special rules apply in constructing stands with double storeys, using flammable materials or housing dangerous/hazardous goods. Seek advice and clarification from the organiser or venue as sometimes written approval is required prior to Move In.
