PUWER
Provision of Work Equipment Regulations 1998
HWEC inspection services provides comprehensive inspection services to help the duty holder meet their obligations, examining a wide range of work equipment.
Under PUWER the duty holder is responsible for the safety and welfare of the work force, therefore it is crucial they understand these
Pallet Trucks and handling
Pallets trucks, electric pallet trucks, orderpickers, and trolleys need regular inspections to ensure they are in a safe working condition and meet the regulations and standards.
HWEC inspection services can regularly inspect your pallet trucks and other equipment to ensure they meet the regulations
Axle stands, stands, vehicle and supports
With the HSE's ongoing campaign highlighting the dangers of incorrectly supported vehicles it is essential that axle stands and other support equipment inspections are prioritised.
HWEC inspection services can assess the condition and suitability of your stands and supports
PPE - Personal Protective Equipment
Using the right PPE and maintaining its condition is essential for the safety of your workforce
Working at Height
WAH equipment should be appropriate for use, at HWEC we can assess and inspect your equipment to ensure it is safe, meets the regulations and the correct equipment is being used for the job. Ladders and step ladders aren't the best and safest solution for every task. We can help you to find the most appropriate and safest solution, and inspect your WAH equipment to ensure it remains safe and compliant.
Fall restraint systems (man-safe)
For maintenance of roof mounted systems, including solar panels man-safe systems can be essential for the safety of the workforce and contractors. HWEC specialises in the periodic inspection of these systems to ensure they remain in a safe condition, and we also inspect them following any disturbance of maintenance to the roof and its structure
