Learn how to inspect racking yourself
Pallet Racking is considered work equipment by the Provision and Use Of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER). Therefore it should be independently inspected by competent and trained inspectors on an annual basis.
The purpose is to find any damage that is causing a risk to safety as set by the European Standard EN15635. The Rack Group, leading suppliers of this service supply this in a Red, Amber, Green format so you can schedule the severity of repairs and keep the pallet racking safe and fit for purpose.
