Inspection Systems
Don't risk it... INSPECT IT!
Inspecting equipment on a regular basis can help ensure that accidents and danger to employees and sometimes the public, is kept to a minimum.
PUWER (Provision & Use of Work Equipment Regulations) 1998 and other specific legislation such as Working at Height Regulations 2005 make it a legal requirement to ensure that work equipment is safe to use for your employees.
SG World has a suite of inspection systems available to help organisations streamline their processes and meet these legal obligations.
Two of the more popular inspection systems include:
Safe-truck
The simplest way to inspect your lift trucks
- Ensure that all of your trucks receive pre-shift inspections
- Build an inspection history. Provide a permanent record of all your inspections
- Provide a visual safety status indicator so that you can see at a glance if a truck is safe to use
- Ensure that you comply with HSE best practice guidelines (as described in its publication, Safety in Working with Lift Trucks) that trucks should be inspected at the beginning of each shift
- Patented design – 0618246.3
- As available from the Fork Lift Truck Association
Safe-truck is our innovative fork lift truck inspection system that will ensure that all of your fork lift trucks are inspected before every shift. Using our patented product allows you to inspect all of your trucks for safety by using a simple checklist. An automatic record of your inspections is created as well as the production of a visible safety paddle for the truck.
Any safety certificate indicating faults that need to be rectified can be passed directly to maintenance for action thus leaving the paddle to indicate that the truck is unsafe to use. Alternatively the slip can be placed inside the inspection paddle appropriately, indicating that the truck is unsafe and that maintenance is required. The maintenance department will then work on any trucks with red slips showing.
The fork lift truck inspection system can be personalised to suit your requirements. We can design the system to reflect your brand image or specific needs or we have a generic system available – the choice is yours.

Safe-scaff
Scaffold inspecting made easy…
- Ensure that inspections are carried out and recorded at regular intervals
- Build an inspection history. Provide a permanent record of all your inspections
- Provide a visual safety status indicator so that you can see at a glance if the scaffold is safe to use
- Ensure that you comply with the Work at Height Regulations 2005
- Easy to use. The simple checklist ensures that no components are forgotten
Safe-scaff enables you to inspect all scaffold and scaffold towers in accordance with the Working at Height Regulations 2005 and HSG150.
The system provides a checklist to record all inspections at appropriate intervals as well as a visible identification for all workers as to the safety status of the scaffold. At the same time as the report is completed, it automatically updates the Scaffold Inspection Log which is the chronological record of all inspections carried out. This report not only lists all inspections but can highlight recurring faults identified at inspection time.
Any reports indicating faults that need to be rectified can be passed directly to the person who has requested the inspection, leaving the scaffold status paddle to indicate that the scaffold is unsafe for use.
As with the fork lift truck inspection system, we can personalise the scaffold inspection system to suit your requirements. We can design the system to reflect your brand image or specific needs or we have a generic system available – the choice is yours.
