Using Plant Assessor to Conduct Machinery Risk Assessments

The plant & equipment risk assessment process has traditionally been highly subjective and requires unwavering consistency and a deep understanding of machinery and safety legislation.

Consequently, plant risk assessments are often inconsistent, incomplete and often do not apply the correct controls to manage the risk of each hazard identified. They can also take many hours to complete.

Plant Assessor simplifies and speeds up this process. Our technical team have conducted tens of thousands of plant risk assessments, the results of which are embedded in our smart software.

Plant Assessor has already completed a comprehensive tedious hazard identification, risk assessment and risk control process for the machines in the system, therefore an inspector using Plant Assessor is essentially looking for the presence of the relevant controls (treatments) required for the machine in question.

The only pre-requisites for a user of Plant Assessor are:

1. Core knowledge about the item of plant or equipment they are assessing
2. Reasonable comprehension skills to read and answer yes/no style questions

We never set out to be a safety label supplier, but as Plant Assessor assists users identify labelling deficiencies on tens of thousands of machines a year, we felt obliged to provide tailored and top quality safety labels for Plant Assessor users and others in the machinery industry.

You can order safety labels from within Plant Assessor, or visit our secure online store and purchase from our extensive range of individual labels and machine label kits.  Postage is intentionally kept low, with Express Post options for urgent situations.

Professional Services – Inspection and Label Application

As part of our professional services suite, we also provide an “assess and label” service option for clients who wish us to inspect their equipment, produce risk assessments and rectify labelling deficiencies at the same time.  This is very convenient for larger plant owners and project mobilisation.

We have tried a few different materials over the years and source materials and utilise production processes that result in our labels being both highly durable and affordable.
