Run a factory safety inspection
Guards, lifting gear and the records PUWER and LOLER ask for.
- Check every machine guard is in place
- Check LOLER inspections on lifting gear are in date. Most people forget this: Six monthly LOLER checks on lifting gear are easy to let lapse
- Check walkways, exits and fire points
- Check COSHH data sheets are on file for each chemical
- Check PPE is worn and in good order
- Put each finding on a dated list
- Sign off the inspection (Plant manager signs off)
