Having safe systems of work is a legal requirement according to Regulation 4(3) of the Electricity at Work Regulations. This is best achieved through an integrated Electrical Safety Management system which can be designed and maintained by Electrical Safety UK Ltd. Our years of experience managing and operating electrical systems and equipment both at Low Voltage and High Voltage puts us in an ideal position to protect your interests.
We offer a range of services to assist you in managing electrical safety in your workplace. We work with our clients to ensure that the systems and procedures that we recommend will not only fulfil the legal requirement for your business but also fit with your company ethos, structure and current range of rules and procedures.
Our Electrical Safety Management Services
The team at ESUK can also come to your premises and undertake an on-site audit of your existing procedures, systems and work practices. We’ll present you with a gap-report and a series of recommendations which we can then assist you in implementing if required. In some cases your site may already have adequate safe systems of work but a review by an external body may be required, our team of experts can carry this out, reporting on and recommending any alterations or improvements.
For some, this is the entry point on our service offerings, but in the majority of cases it is the next stage in the Electrical Safety Management Process. We work closely with you to develop a set of electrical safety rules, supporting procedures and safety documents and we’re able to integrate anything that you already have in place.
It is important that the safety rules and procedures have the right feel and approach for your business as well as achieving compliance with legislation and standards. What is right for one client is not necessarily right for the others. There will be several meetings to ensure that we have met your requirements and only when you have signed off on the safety rules will we move to the next stage.
Many of our clients request that we arrange for the Safety Rules and Supporting Procedures to be printed in a handy A5 or A6 booklet format, likewise we are able to arrange for Safety Documents such as Permit-to-Work to be printed in duplicate or triplicate format. A training package, including trainer notes, PowerPoint Presentation and end-of-course assessment will be developed and can either be issued for delivery by your own training staff or we can send one of our experienced trainers to you.
We will assist you in setting up your competency systems and can even develop a database to get you on the right lines. We are able to offer Authorising Engineer capabilities and develop Certificates of Appointment for you to manage on site. We can even offer an audit service to ensure that you stay compliant.
You may not require the full package or may want a tailored approach to meet your specific needs- not a problem! Just drop us a line and we will work with you to ensure that you get the best service. We are able to offer a range of electrical technician and engineering consultancy services and advise on projects and issues that you may have.
Our engineering team has extensive experience of incident investigations and working alongside the enforcing authorities. We also have our Electrical Systems Studies division that works closely alongside Electrical Safety Management and don’t forget- we have an extensive training department too!
What sets us apart from the rest is our ethos of working alongside our clients and building long-lasting relationships. We prefer to be ‘in it for the long-haul’ and ensure that your compliance requirements are maintained.
We prefer to work on a ‘first-name’ and welcome phone calls and emails from our clients whenever there is a need, or just to say hi. We offer ongoing support packages and are able to provide guidance, auditing services and reviews of documents and persons as your need arises. In essence Electrical Safety UK Ltd is able to offer a one-stop-shop for all for all of your compliance needs. We are able to ‘think outside of the box’ and develop solutions that work for you.
