Conveyor Pre-Use Visual Inspection Checklist (pad of 30)
Conveyors move material and goods throughout plants and warehouses every day. In many cases, a conveyor breakdown can shut down the entire operation until repairs are complete. The conveyor inspection pad helps businesses perform their pre-use or daily safety inspections. The checklist is designed to help you comply with your duty of care under HSE guidance. The duplicate checklist design creates two signed copies of each inspection and incorporates a PASS/FAIL notice. Each pad has 30 checklists and is used in tandem with a hi-vis display wallet

How to use
Before every shift, the operator of the conveyor can simply work down the inspection checklist, checking the safety of each component in turn. Once the inspection is complete, assuming safety has been established, the green PASS inspection certificate can be placed inside a safety status indicator on the conveyor ensuring that everyone can clearly see that the conveyor is safe for use. Failing conveyors can be similarly identified by a red FAIL certificate and reported for maintenance. The duplicate copy of the certificate remains inside the inspection pad and can be used as evidence of inspections should you ever need to produce this for the HSE or other official parties.

FAQs
What are the common hazards when using conveyors?
There are many hazards associated with working at or near a conveyor, including:

Do conveyors need to be inspected under PUWER?
Yes, they are covered by PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998). PUWER states that you should make sure equipment is suitable for use in the purpose and conditions in which you’re using it, that it’s maintained in a safe condition, and that it’s inspected by a competent person to make sure that it continues to be safe to use.
