Pallet Racking Inspections

Health and Safety regulations are continually applying layer upon layer of responsibility and accountability to business owners and management to carry out self-assessment of the safety risks in their warehouse. Here at Oracle Storage systems, we can help you in a straight forward, no nonsense way to successfully manage this increasingly burdensome task.

Oracle Storage carry out inspections electronically using PDA hand held devices. Clients can then instantly view inspections on completion on our portal which is accessed via our website. This gives the added benefit of Senior Management having the facility, to view all completed inspections within their company on the click of a button, before the inspector has left the site.

Pallet Racking Safety Inspections
Oracle’s approach to Pallet Racking Safety Inspections is in essence a common sense, reality based assessment of what is actually observed on site at the time of inspection taking full account of your operational demands. Our experience of over 35 years guides us as to what is, and what is not assessed as actionable in your storage area taking in to account not purely the racking system itself, but the environment, systems of work, palletised loads, MHE operator behaviour and even the seasonal aspects that can effect levels of damage and associated dangers. Most IMPORTANTLY of all, through our long standing relationships with our clients, we understand the demands that you require AND the ones you do not.

Your Safety Inspections Report
The end result is an easy to follow, actionable inspection report that is tailored to YOUR warehouse, based on YOUR undertakings and aims to secure YOUR safety and operational priorities.

Qualified inspectors
All our inspectors are NEBOSH qualified, time served ex-racking installers who are experienced in warehouse management and your day to day needs and understand what is required when it comes to hassle free solutions of your storage equipment.

Racking inspection guidelines
The SEMA (Storage Equipment Manufacturers Association) Guidelines to the conduct of pallet racking inspections are taken in to account during our inspections but not at the expense of common sense risk assessment and the day to day hands on experience we have gathered during the 35 years since we began one of the countries earliest rack inspection services.

Pallet racking safety - real world approach
We continue to pioneer our 'real world' approach to racking inspections and have sourced our technical experience from integrating best practice.

We take our guiding principles from:
• The Health & Safety at Work Act etc. 1974
• The Management of Health and Safety at Work
Regulations 1999 - primarily the use of Risk Assessment principles subjectively assessing the hazards and risks based on observations made on site with the clients business needs as part of such assessments, i.e. "so far as is reasonably practicable".

• The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998
• The Workplace (Health, Safety & Welfare) Regulations 1992
