Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Newtownards?
The employer or occupier, under PUWER (Northern Ireland) 1999 and the Workplace Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1993. Planned servicing, daily checks and a procedure to stop trailers moving during loading are the practical basics HSENI will expect.
Keeping your site running during the work
Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.

Questions from businesses in Newtownards
How soon can you repair a leveller at our Newtownards site?
We book repair visits as soon as we can and confirm the expected date when you call. We do not promise fixed response times. Photos and the leveller make help us bring likely parts.
Should we repair or replace our leveller in Newtownards?
Repair is usually the first step. If the platform is cracked, the pit edges are broken or repairs are frequent, we price a replacement into the existing pit alongside the repair so you can compare.
Is our dock leveller in Newtownards safe to use?
If it drifts, drops, leaks significantly, has cracked hinges or damaged toe guards, or will not return to stored position, stop using it and isolate it until it has been inspected and repaired.
