Where should I position my safety shower and eye/face wash equipment?
Where to position your safety equipment for compliance to safety standards and considerations for contractors and site visitors.
In the realm of workplace accidents and chemical spills, every second counts. The rapid response to emergency situations can often be the line between minor inconvenience and severe injury. With regulations such as those set by both international and European standards, the importance of safety equipment positioning cannot be overstated to ensure that anyone affected by a nearby chemical spill can quickly decontaminate to mitigate further harm. In addition to regular workers, site visitors and contractors should also be made familiar with the positioning and use of nearby safety equipment during their induction to ensure the safety of all those on site.
Hughes Safety Showers have detailed a guide on the correct positioning of safety equipment to achieve compliance to safety standards and optimally protect your workers and site visitors.
