The GOOD TO GO™ SEMS allows you to take control of your workplace and carry out equipment checks as part of your quality, maintenance and H&S policies. Many companies need daily checks to be carried out on various types of equipment, whilst others may find weekly or even monthly checks to be sufficient, the GOOD TO GO™ SEMS adapts accordingly.

A bespoke service is also available with the option to include corporate branding and customisation of check lists to meet more specific needs of your organisation.

Many companies may ask the question, "Why do I need a SEMS if we haven’t had an accident?" GOOD TO GO™ is proactive in its quest to provide a safer workplace, we don’t believe in waiting for an accident to occur before taking action; we simply remove potential risks at the source.

Assumption is one of your company's biggest dangers. Employees can assume that equipment is safe because 'it worked fine yesterday', GOOD TO GO™ eradicates these assumptions by educating operatives to carry out regular equipment checks, empowering them in the process and making them feel a valued and trusted employee. The SEMS will become an essential training tool for supervisors and allocated 'competent persons'.

The GOOD TO GO™ SEMS is also unique in its ability to validate the status display. A patented tamper evident seal is fitted to the pod once a check has been carried out. This prevents the findings from being removed or altered without an operative's knowledge. All equipment checks are also stored in a duplicate book, providing a clear chronological audit trail which can be examined in the event of any future accidents (providing invaluable evidence).

WHO?

  • Under PUWER98 legislation, any inspection should be carried out by a competent person (this could be an employee if they have the necessary competence to perform the task) and a record kept until the next inspection.

  • Staff should be fully trained on the necessary procedures prior to the SEMS being introduced to the workplace.
  • The SEMS will become an essential tool for your H&S officer and/or site manager.
