Description
Pallet racking inspection checklist pad
Pallet racking inspection checklist pad is a simple, yet disciplined procedure to help organisations ensure that all of their pallet racking is safe for use.
The pallet racking inspection pad enables an organisation to work through a duplicate checklist and carry out an inspection of their racking ensuring that it is safe for use. The top copy of the checklist is displayed on the racking to indicate its safety. The duplicate copy remains fast in the pad as evidence that the inspection has taken place in the event of an HSE investigation.
At regular intervals, the person responsible for racking safety can simply work down the inspection checklist, checking the safety of each component in turn. This simple procedure helps you to comply with HSE guidance HSG76 Warehousing and Storage that recommends pallet racking be inspected every week as well as the Provision & Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 commonly referred to as PUWER, that state that all work equipment provided to employees must be maintained and be safe to do the job for which it is intended.
Once the inspection is complete, assuming safety has been established, the inspection certificate can be placed inside a safety status indicator on the racking ensuring that every employee can clearly see that it is safe for use. Failing racking can be similarly identified but ‘handed over’ for maintenance.
