Providing thorough PUWER inspections across the UK
Much like a LOLER inspection, a PUWER inspection is a legal requirement for businesses. It relates to a wide range of machinery, including lifting equipment. PUWER inspections are in place to ensure you have chosen suitable pieces of machinery for the needs of your business, and that it is being used in the right way. Using equipment for tasks it was not designed to do can lead to serious injuries or worse.
UKRMES will complete all inspections to the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998, ensuring your equipment is fit for purpose and is used as expected.
Why are PUWER inspections important?
In an industry where deaths and injuries are some of the highest for a workplace in the UK, it's essential that any powered equipment, from small hoists up to larger lifting machinery, is used in the correct way. Many injuries and deaths in agricultural workplaces can come from instances where the wrong piece of equipment is used, or it is used incorrectly.
Our role at UKRMES is not to beat you over the head with the regulations, but to ensure your workplace is safe, and that you are fully compliant with the regulations in order to prevent fines, injuries or worse. We provide a national service with exceptional support, ensuring workers across the country can sleep easy knowing they are PUWER compliant.
