Machine safety compliance is harder than it should be.

Most businesses want to do the right thing. The problem is keeping on top of it. Inspections fall out of date, findings get lost and no one has a clear picture of where the risks actually are.

Inspections slip through the gaps

PUWER and LOLER examinations have statutory deadlines. Without a clear system, it's easy for plant to go overdue without anyone realising.

📋

Findings don't get acted on

Issues are identified on-site, written up somewhere, and then nothing happens. No ownership, no tracking, no closure.

🔄

No single source of truth

Assessments spread across email threads, folders and spreadsheets. When an inspector asks questions, nobody can find the paperwork.

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

hazardIQ covers the full assessment lifecycle, from initial hazard identification to signed-off corrective actions.

📋
