PPE Audit & Health Check

What is a PPE Audit & Health Check?

PPE audits and health checks are designed to collect and analyse information about your PPE standards, practices, and procedures. Typically done through direct observation as well as through the review of PPE policies and procurement data.

The experts in safety for over 45 years, PWS have worked with organisations to develop and implement standardisation and rationalisation of PPE, safety and workwear products to significantly reduce costs, whilst maintaining the safety of end users.

Workwear Audit for Workplace Safety

A review of your PPE and its applications is a vitally important process all organisations should undertake regularly to prevent accidents and identify hazards that can be caused by the allocation of inappropriate safety wear. Reviewing your standards and procedures around PPE procurement and allocation will help to identify any gaps or barriers to legal compliance and can also help with evaluating training and education programs to ensure correct use of safety equipment amongst end users.

Be PPE Compliant

Maintaining a fully compliant PPE product range is essential for helping to keep your staff safe. As an employer, you are responsible for providing your employees with the correct, industry approved workwear as well as appropriate training to effectively and safely use relevant PPE.
If you do not provide your staff with appropriate, compliant PPE suitable for their job role, you could be liable for any injury sustained as a result of this. Ensuring all of your workwear is fully compliant with industry regulations will give you and your employees peace of mind.

PPE Regulations

PPE regulations are regularly reviewed by the Health & Safety Executive (HSE). Updated PPE Regulations can be found on the HSE website, as well as useful information on using PPE to control risks at work. It is important to keep up with regulations to ensure that you are fulfilling your legal duties as an employer to protect your staff where there are health and safety risks.
