Supporting employers, facilities managers and landlords
When unsafe work equipment puts operators near moving parts, unguarded controls or overdue servicing, the inspector goes through each machine, ties every defect to its location and asset number, and produces a written record for site managers. The report feeds into risk assessments and repair planning, and identifies which guards, emergency stops and maintenance items require action.
What PUWER Inspections does
Written records you can rely on
Every inspection produces a dated report recording the equipment examined, any defects found, and the actions required. That document stays with you for your health and safety file.
Bookings taken now
Choose a date that suits your production schedule. The booking is confirmed at a set price, so there is nothing left to negotiate before the specialist arrives.
Proportionate findings
Where equipment meets the regulations, the report says so. Where it does not, the specific regulation and the required action are spelled out, not padded with generic recommendations.
Covers a wide range of equipment
PUWER applies to machinery, hand tools, industrial doors, roller shutter doors, racking systems, plant and most other powered or manually operated equipment used at work.
Site-based assessment
The specialist inspects equipment in the condition and location in which it is used, rather than working from photographs or manufacturer data alone.
Nationwide coverage
Inspections are booked across the United Kingdom, from large manufacturing sites to small workshops, in cities and rural locations alike.
LOLER and PUWER on the same visit
Where a site has lifting equipment that falls under the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 as well as general work equipment under PUWER, a specialist can address both on a single visit.
