UV safety in the workplace

Organisations operating artificial UV light sources are required to protect workers under the Control of Artificial Optical Radiation at Work Regulations.

We help UK businesses achieve full compliance through a complete UV safety programme: risk management training, onsite exposure assessment, and ongoing compliance support.

With nearly 20 years’ UV industry experience, we’ve assessed hundreds of installations across aerospace, food, healthcare and manufacturing.

UV safety matters

The Control of Artificial Optical Radiation at Work Regulations 2010 require employers to:

  • Identify and assess UV exposure risks
  • Implement controls and provide training to protect workers
  • Measure personal exposure and compare to the statutory limits
  • Provide workers with UV hazard awareness training
  • Keep clear, documented evidence of compliance

Unfortunately, many organisations are unaware of their legal obligations, or how to ensure full compliance.
