The challenge?
a) Amey operates a wide variety of machinery that has to be serviced on a regular basis.
b) Certain machines may only be operated for limited time periods.
Example
Anyone operating a machine that causes hand/arm or whole body vibration is restricted to a set period of continuous use.
The Ritchey ID solution?
Ritchey ID large flag tags are affixed to all construction and rail plant, detailing the next due service date. Printed by Ritchey ID, the tags display the Amey logo.
A traffic light colour coded tag system is also provided by Ritchey ID, for transmitting health and safety time limitations to the operator.
User comments
Amey Health and Safety officer, Gareth Stokes has been a Ritchey ID customer since 2005. He says the company’s tags are easier to affix to plant than some of the rival brands. They have proved to be useful for making sure equipment is properly maintained and transmitting health and safety information, he comments.
