Work Equipment You Can Rely On
Whether it’s power tools, machinery, or other work equipment, employees must be able to trust that it functions safely. Intensive use, wear and tear, or damage can create risks that aren’t always immediately visible.
With periodic inspections, you can detect defects in a timely manner and prevent minor defects from leading to accidents or unexpected downtime. Normec supports organizations with independent inspections that contribute to safe and responsible work practices.
Every inspection begins with a thorough check
During the inspection, we assess, among other things:
- The general technical condition
- Wear, damage, and defects
- Electrical safety, where applicable
- Safety devices and safety features
- The functionality of the work equipment
After the inspection, you will receive a report with the results and any recommendations. If desired, we will register the inspected work equipment and affix an inspection label to it.
Prevention is safer than repair
By having work equipment inspected periodically:
- You increase employee safety
- You comply with the obligations under the Occupational Safety and Health Act
- You reduce the risk of malfunctions and downtime
- You maintain insight into the condition of your work equipment
- You can better plan maintenance and replacement
