Even the most innocuous looking workplaces contain all sorts of hazards. Hazards that can cause devastating effects to businesses and its employees. That’s why good health and safety practices are so important (despite what some sections of the press would have people believe). Health and safety has been unfairly derided by people without the full understanding of just how important it is.
Take an office for example: This might seem like one of the most low risk environments anyone could work in, but even here there’s plenty to be wary and cautious of.
One of the most important things for any organisation to manage in its place of business is electrical safety. Electricity can kill – so it’s vital to carry out regular electrical testing of equipment to ensure it’s working safely and doesn’t pose a risk to employee safety and well being.
Electrical safety matters. Every organisation must ensure their appliances are working safely. Of course this is a moral duty, but preventing electrical danger is also a legal requirement. Quite rightly, legislation governs electrical safety in the workplace, so businesses must ensure that they comply with regulation.
