Puwer inspections in Luton
Work equipment at your Luton site, from roller shutter doors to production machinery, can be assessed under PUWER and a report issued the same visit.
The puwer inspection process for Luton premises
The checks depend on the premises and the systems in them.
| Guarding and hazard inspection | Fixed and interlocked guards are checked for gaps, damage and bypassing around moving parts, and each machine is photographed and logged. |
|---|---|
| Controls and emergency stop testing | Start and stop controls, emergency stops and isolators are tested to confirm they work and are clearly marked. Faults are noted against each machine so repairs are simple to track. |
| Maintenance and training review | A competent person reads the maintenance log, past thorough examination reports and operator training records to confirm servicing is current and staff know how to use each item. |
| Written defect report | Every finding is recorded with its location, a photo and a clear result, giving a report that supports the risk assessment and any repair work. |
