INDUSTRY FOCUS
SAFETY IN ENGINEERING
debut Industry Focus we will be highlighting the importance of Safety in Engineering. The topics that will be covered include PPE, safety in the workplace, safety training, machine safety and fire safety. With the 18th Edition of the wiring
T
regulations being published later this year, safety in the workplace is proving to be a hot topic. Following the July 2018 publication, there will be a six-month period for electricians to prepare for 1st January 2019, when new installation designs will be required. The 18th edition will include both new and updated regulations and will have a direct impact on the safety and energy efficiency of new electrical installations. According to a new poll conducted
his month we have launched a new Industry Focus section into Electrical Engineering. For the
amongst Bureau Veritas UK customers, the large majority (93 per cent) of those working in the industry welcome the legislative change. Of the key reasons cited, 50 per cent feel it will help to raise standards, almost a quarter (23 per cent) claim a duty to embrace new safety regulation and a fifth (20 per cent) say safety is their number one priority. To help prepare engineers for the
upcoming changes NICEIC have organised a unique training event. On 4 July this year NICEIC and ELECSA will be transmitting a live talk on the 18th Edition, which will be beamed via satellite to 40 cinema screens simultaneously. The seminar will be broadcast live to over 40 screens across the UK. See the full list of all participating cinemas now on NICEIC’s website. Find out more about 18th Edition Live on PG28.
