The Working at Height Regulations 2005 requires regular inspection of equipment at suitable intervals which is recorded and retained until the next inspection is due.
In addition, the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 stipulates that where work equipment is exposed to conditions causing deterioration which is liable to result in dangerous situations it must be inspected at suitable intervals by a competent person. Records of inspections must be kept with sufficient information to properly identify the equipment, its normal location, dates, faults found, action take, to whom faults were reported, who carried out the inspection.
Compliance is based on the following 3 criteria:
- It is in an efficient state
- It is in efficient working order
- It is in good repair
Use the Harness Inspection Record included with Health and Safety Xpert to inspect and record the results of your inspections. It is important to file these records so that they could be consulted by an inspector if necessary.
