UV Safety in the Workplace

If your organisation operates artificial UV light sources, you are legally obliged to:

• Reduce personal exposure as low as reasonably practicable;
• Compare personal exposure to the statutory limits; and
• Provide workers with specific information and training.

Failing to do so not only puts workers at risk of the acute and chronic health effects associated with exposure to UV light but also constitutes a regulatory offence.

We help organisations understand the requirements and provide support and services to achieve compliance.

Our free UV safety guide will provide an introduction to the requirements relating to UV inspection, disinfection and curing processes in the workplace.

And whether your are already using UV, or looking to introduce a new process, we can help you:

• Understand the adverse health effects associated with UV light.
• Ensure the statutory exposure limit values are not exceeded.
• Be prepared if queried by authorities around workplace exposure.
• Ensure safe use and regulatory compliance under UK law.
• Achieve peace of mind you have performance and safety covered.

We have 20 years experience in the UV industry, helping organisations ensure effective performance, safe use and compliance with their legal obligations under the Control of Artificial Optical Radiation at Work Regulations 2010 and European Directive 2006/25/EC, protecting workers and achieving regulatory compliance.
