Racking Inspections

Racking inspections are crucial for maintaining workplace safety and complying with regulations, especially for businesses using racking systems in warehouses and storage facilities. They help identify damage, prevent accidents, and ensure the continued integrity of the racking, potentially saving costs and lives.

8 Reasons why you should prioritise Racking Inspections

01

HSE Guidlines

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) recommends regular racking inspections to ensure workplace safety and compliance with PUWER 1998 legislation, which requires regular inspections of work equipment. 

04

Reducing Risks

By identifying and addressing damage early, inspections reduce the risk of racking failure, which can cause accidents, injuries, and property damage. 

07

Reducing Insurance Costs

Safe racking reduces the risk of accidents, which can lead to lower insurance premiums. 

02

Legal Obligations

Businesses have a legal obligation to ensure racking is properly maintained and inspected. 

05

Protecting Workers

Regular inspections are vital for protecting employees from potential hazards associated with unsafe racking. 

08

Minimizing Legal Risks

Adherence to racking inspection standards can help businesses avoid legal repercussions and fines if accidents occur due to inadequate racking maintenance. 

03

Identifying Damage

Inspections help identify damage to racking, including small impacts or scrapes, which can degrade the racking and potentially lead to collapse. 

06

Cost Avoidance

Promptly addressing minor damage can prevent costly repairs or replacement of damaged racking.
