6. Racking Inspections
Racking inspections play a critical role in ensuring safe hazardous storage by identifying potential risks and ensuring compliance with safety standards.
Here’s how they help:
- Preventing Accidents: Regular inspections detect damage, wear, or misalignment in racking systems that could lead to collapses, especially when storing hazardous materials.
- Ensuring Load Compliance: Inspections verify that racks are properly designed for the weight and type of hazardous materials stored, preventing overloading or improper storage.
- Improving Safety Measures: Inspections ensure that safety features such as barriers, safety clips, and proper labelling are in place, reducing the risk of spills or leaks.
- Compliance with Regulations: Regular inspections help ensure compliance with local safety regulations, such as the Control of Major Accident Hazards (COMAH), minimising legal risks.
- Fire Hazard Mitigation: Inspections can identify any issues that may contribute to fire risks, such as improper spacing or ventilation, and ensure the storage of hazardous materials follows fire safety codes.
At NSI Projects, our team of SARI inspectors can conduct a comprehensive rack inspection at your premises. This ensures compliance with PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998) guidelines, helping to maintain health and safety standards while preventing or minimizing workplace accidents.
