Safety
The Adelaide Produce Markets site operates with an estimated 1500 individuals each day, and is continuously filled with market activities, especially in the early hours of the morning where trucks, delivery vehicles, forklifts, cars and trolley’s are more prominent.
‘No commercial pressure should ever warrant deliberate risk or wilful endangerment of the lives of any of our colleagues, work mates, customers and visitors’.
The success of the Market relies heavily upon the health, safety and welfare of all Market Users. Market Users are relied upon to conduct their business safely and according to all Market Rules, as detailed in the Adelaide Produce Markets Limited Market Rules.
