When working around helicopters, always approach and depart from the front, never from the rear.

To prevent injury or damage, never raise anything above your head.

If the helicopter is landed on a slope, approach and depart from the down slope side only.

When the helicopter is loaded and ready for take off, keep the departure path free of vehicles and spectators. In an emergency, this area is needed to execute a landing.
