We offer HSE-recommended inspections conducted by independent SEMA Approved Rack Inspectors (SARIs).
In compliance with legislation, your warehouse pallet racking and shelving systems must be inspected at least once a year by a qualified SEMA Approved Rack Inspector to ensure they meet health and safety standards.
Regular warehouse safety inspections not only help fulfill your legal obligations under the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 and Provision & Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER) 1998, but they also contribute to creating a safer working environment for all staff.
Working in or around warehouses requires a thorough understanding of health and safety protocols, including the safe operation of machinery, lifting equipment, and storage systems.
Without proper precautions, warehouses pose risks such as accidents involving forklifts, falling objects, hazardous substances, and even fire-related incidents. Unfortunately, injuries and fatalities have been reported in these scenarios.
To mitigate these risks, training staff on serious hazards, safety procedures, and good housekeeping practices is essential.
Providing proper personal protective equipment (PPE), such as eye protection and hard hats, is also critical to maintaining safety standards.
At SEC Storage, we are committed to helping you safeguard your warehouse. Our services include:
- HSE-advised inspections by independent SARIs.
- Comprehensive guidance on warehouse health and safety, racking safety, and fire safety.
- Pallet racking repairs for any identified damages.
By ensuring your warehouse adheres to these safety measures, you can protect your staff, minimise risks, and maintain a safe, compliant working environment.
