Exercise caution when driving, reversing, filling, parking, and spraying around workers, vehicles, machinery, excavations, buildings, and other hazards. Ensure the vehicle is parked safely and secured when not in use. Keep the water bowser clean and in a safe and roadworthy condition. Immediately report accidents, near misses, breakdowns, environmental incidents, or damage involving the vehicle.

Previous experience in construction, road works, quarrying, mining, or civil engineering projects is highly desirable. Experience operating water pumps, spray bars, hoses, valves, and similar equipment is an advantage. Basic knowledge of heavy-vehicle operation and routine maintenance. Knowledge of road safety and construction-site safety procedures. Defensive-driving or professional-driver training is an advantage. 4. SKILLS AND COMPETENCIES Competent and safe heavy-vehicle driving skills. Good knowledge of road traffic rules and safe-driving practices. Ability to operate water-distribution systems and related equipment. Basic mechanical knowledge and ability to identify faults. Good spatial awareness and ability to manoeuvre safely in restricted areas. Good understanding of construction-site hazards. Good communication and teamwork skills. Ability to follow instructions and work with minimal supervision. Good time management and ability to follow work schedules. High level of responsibility and accountability. Reliability, punctuality, and good work discipline. Commitment to health, safety, and environmental protection. 5. HEALTH & SAFETY REQUIREMENTS Exercise caution when reversing and use a banksman/spotter where required by site procedures. Never exceed the vehicle’s permitted load or water-tank capacity. Ensure the water-distribution system is safely operated and does not create hazards for workers or road users. Never operate the vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or any substance that may impair driving ability. Report accidents, near misses, unsafe conditions, leaks, spills, and equipment defects immediately. Use water responsibly and avoid unnecessary wastage.
