Safe use of pressure systems

Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 place a statutory duty on employers to provide a safe workplace and safe work equipment (pressure systems).

Employers have a requirement to:

  • Provide safe and suitable equipment
  • Know the operating conditions of the pressure system
  • Fit suitable protective devices and ensure they function properly
  • Carry out suitable maintenance
  • Make provision for appropriate training
  • Ensure the pressure system has a Written Scheme of Examination (WSE)
  • Ensure the system is being examined in accordance with the WSE
  • Choose a competent person

We offer a full service to help organisations comply with the PSSR 2000 legislation. This includes the preparation of Written Schemes of Examination, system testing and maintenance. Click here for more information.

Our workshops also provide graphic instruction as to the potential risks of using unsafe pressure systems.
