PRODUCTS & SERVICES MINITEC MAKE THE
WORKPLACE SAFER MiniTec is a UK designer and manufacturer of modular aluminium profile systems. Based in Basingstoke, MiniTec estimate that over 80% of orders built by MiniTec have a health and safety element, whether it is a relationship with guards for machinery and equipment, enclosures, ergonomics of workstations and assembly lines or potentially hazardous enclosures.
LEGISLATION REQUIREMENTS The Machinery Safety Directive EN ISO 13849-1 places an obligation on both machinery designer and operator to ensure that equipment is fitted with adequate safeguards to protect machine operators, and any other staff working in the vicinity of such production machinery, from accidental injury.
SAFETY IN THE WORKPLACE The range of equipment that can be put together with MiniTec profiles is endless, but we will look now at some of the major applications which contribute to safety in the workplace.
Providing a safe working environment in a manufacturing site is not simply about protecting
GO PAPERLESS WITH HEALTH AND SAFETY
SYSTEMS UK Be it paper or spreadsheet based, in the past health and safety management has been a difficult process. Files can take up significant amounts of virtual or real space whilst data management and analysis of disparate systems can be onerous and cumbersome.
With the dawn of cloud computing, Health and Safety Systems UK has developed eVolution, a product suite of systems and mobile applications that could revolutionise your health and safety management.
eVolution is a comprehensive package that allows you to manage, monitor

staff from the dangers of rotating equipment, providing safe walkways to prevent accidents involving fork lift trucks or making sure noise levels are acceptable.
MACHINE GUARDS
AND CAGES Whilst CNC lathes and machining centres will always be designed with a robust guard door to protect
and act upon all aspects of day-to-day health and safety, from one portal. Modules include: Compliance, Risk Assessments, Corrective Actions, Incident Reporting, Corrective Actions and Training.
We have applied our near 20 years of experience in designing health and safety systems to each module. Creating a system that is easy to use, with little training required whilst at the same time not sacrificing any expected functionality.
All information is stored on the system and can be quickly drilled down into for easy access to your file library. This provides an unprecedented view into health and safety trends within your company. Make best use of all the data that you have collected to quickly identify and

act on areas that are not compliant or are of particular risk, saving time, money and improving your efficiency.
In the digital age ease of use and accessibility are key and are at the forefront of the eVolution design. You can seamlessly transition from using the system on your computer to any other device, such as a mobile phone or tablet, allowing you to input important data in real time from anywhere. Never run the risk of information getting ‘lost in translation’ again.
Our free Incident Reporting App is now available on the Windows, Google and Apple stores, to download simply type in eVolution Incident Reporting into your mobile store.
