2. Equipment

During my visit I observed various unsafe acts using various items of company equipment. Damaged ladders were in use for maintenance work on the warehouse lighting and one employee was spotted standing on the forks of the fork lift truck while stacking boxes at height. Both these activities are breaches of the PUWER regulations. Actually a breach of the WAH Regs and HASAW too.Firstly as a company are failing to provide safe equipment and additionally employees are using equipment in ways which their use was not intended. Regular inspection and maintenance programmes how and by who - trained, competent - training required, how will it be managed- timescale and costs for our equipment would tackle the issue concerning the use of damaged equipment, which coupled with training our employees on reporting defects would ensure that this does not continue. However, this would need to be backed up with improvements to the supervision of our workforce and this could be achieved by a refresher course for all supervisors at minimal cost. Again - internal/external and costs and timescale needed here

sir otto...

Can you kindly give me an example in this topic the internal/external and cost and timescale that need to be in here...
sorry sir, i am new and on the process of review for the upcoming exam..
thank you.
p.s., well anyone can give an idea not only otto.
