Why should you Test & Tag your Appliances
The reason workplaces need to have their electrical appliances test and tagged is because of what is contained in OHS legislation that requires all employers to provide and maintain a safe workplace.
This requirement includes taking steps to ensure all electrical appliances used in the workplace are electrically safe for personal use and thereby reduce the risk of workers, visitors and other people being injured or killed due to electric shock from faulty appliances.
1 in 20 Appliances Unsafe
Our experience reveals a sobering statistic for all workers and business owners; around 5% of all electrical appliances used in the workplace today have some type of fault or defect that places the user at the risk of being injured or killed by electric shock.
That’s around one in twenty appliances!
Could one of those appliances be the next one you use???
Of course, for some workplaces this figure is higher and for others, much lower. It’s only through having your electrical appliances correctly tested and tagged that you will know if they really are electrically safe to use.
