Safetyworks roof inspection as legally required

Leading manufacturers of roof safety systems, Safetyworks and Solutions provide authorised inspection and maintenance of systems and personnel protective equipment in accordance with HSE legislation.

In order to ensure the continued safety of operatives and maintenance personnel who have to access roof areas, it is a legal requirement that the roof safety systems are inspected regularly and re-certified annually.

The process ensures that all components are inspected for signs of damage/wear and tear, or corrosion, as well as testing relevant fall arrest and restraint products to confirm that they remain fully operational in terms of sustaining their designated load issued upon installation.

Safetyworks and Solutions have offices in both Cambridgeshire and Shropshire, where their highly experienced personnel are fully trained to undertake inspections, testing, and re-certification, and if so required, can supply and install replacement systems.

Companies need to be aware that if the certification of a roof safety system does expire, then they must ensure that no one uses the system until the relevant legally required inspection, testing and re-certification measures have been put in place.
