Correct Maintenance of Tools and

A further part of a health and safety strategy is to
maintain tools and
equipment regularly. This helps to identify safety
problems before they become a serious hazard. Only
qualified people should carry out the maintenance.
They
should also keep records of their inspections.
Management
There is one important way to follow the rules and to
manage the safe use and maintenance of tools and
equipment. This is to assess and control the risks.

Employers should conduct Risk Assessments that cover


the setting up, use and maintenance of tools and equipment at
work.
Management
The risk assessment process must identify the environments
in which workers will use the tools and equipment; any local
conditions that m Risk assessments such as these let
employers know what orientation and training they need to
run. The assessments also show what information employers
must make available in the form of posters, user guides and
Safety Signs.
By limiting risks in this way, employers have some control over
potential hazards.
Specifically, employers should:
• Place guards on machinery to protect fingers and limbs.
• Ensure that system controls have appropriate warning devices.
• Insist staff wear personal protective clothing as necessary.
• Arrange for maintenance when equipment is safely shut down and
not in use.
