Working at height has its risks, especially with use of ladders. To secure the ladder and prevent tampering or illegal access to areas at height lockable ladder guards are recommended.

Should a worker fall from a height, you should have the correct precautions in place to reduce injury. Site Equip’s Soft fall arrest landing system can reduce risk of injury from falls from up to 2 meters. It is also important to undertake training on how to use certain safety equipment, to ensure it is being used properly and effectively.

Site Equip can also provide portable welfare units that meet site safety requirements. HSE guidelines state that ‘Everyone who works on any site must have access to adequate toilet and washing facilities, a place for preparing and consuming refreshments and somewhere for storing and drying clothing and personal protective equipment.’

Site Equip will provide safety equipment to sites within a 70 mile radius from Alton, Hampshire, covering Berkshire, Surrey, Sussex, London and Hampshire. For more information or a quote, please call 01256 384 134.

A Guide to Good Practice in Waste Disposal

We all have responsibility in making sure liquid waste is disposed of safely and correctly. HSE guidelines state that “There should be clear procedures for the collection, transport, segregation and disposal of offensive/hygiene wastes.”

Here's a few pointers on how to dispose waste responsibly.

1. Companies dealing with waste disposal should adhere to environment policies to ensure minimal pollution and environmental impact. The different types of pollution that could be caused through poorly disposed sewage are:

• Water pollution ie. Contamination due to flooding
• Odour pollution
• Unwanted pests 

2. It is good practice to make sure your waste is being transported to an authorized site. Most importantly, ensure the servicers you use hold a waste carriers licence issued by The Environment Agency.

3. A detailed record should be kept to document all waste transfers, including a description, details of the disposers and time/date of transfer.

Site Equip are committed to providing an excellent disposal service that meets the necessary guidelines to prevent waste from being handled incorrectly or illegally. Site Equip has a fleet of tankers capable of holding from up to 2000 gallons of waste.

Building, Building, and More Building at Lasham

We may have only been at our yard in Lasham for 2 years in May, but we have definitely made an impact! Not only have we concreted the entire two and half acres of land we own, but have built purpose made offices and a workshop. We are currently continuing the trend by knocking down the old warehouse next to our new offices, incorporating a bigger warehouse to build and maintain our current units.

This development comes at a time when we are planning to build upon the 25 years of excellent service to the events and construction industry, providing worry free welfare facilities.
Keep an eye out for pictures and updates of the development as it continues...

Site Welfare Has Become A Top Priority

It has been estimated that over 70,000 construction workers have health issues. Health and safety regulations in the UK now state that sites should provide sufficient welfare facilities to reduce illnesses. HSE will be inspecting sites to ensure adequate welfare units are put in place for employees. In addition, it is a requirement to supply construction workers with hot water hand wash portable toilets, in order to prevent skin conditions. With the growing emphasis on site accommodation and welfare, construction firms should be making a conscious effort to meet a high standard of health and safety.

Site Equip Ltd can help create safe working conditions in the provision of affordable hot wash loos and practical mobile site stations.

The hot wash loos are cost efficient site accommodation to ensure you have a practical solution which is approved by Health and Safety guidelines.
