Manufacturing

Machinery risk, COSHH and workforce competence in one connected workspace for manufacturing sites.

Machinery risk

Guarding and PUWER, not an afterthought

Machinery entanglement and guarding failures are a real production-floor risk — equipment checks and PUWER records for every machine sit in one place, not scattered maintenance sheets.

Guarding, on record
Substance control

COSHH tracked where the work happens

Dusts and process chemicals used on the shop floor are tracked in one COSHH register by location, so exposure risk doesn't rely on institutional memory.

Substances, by location
Operator competence

See who's authorised on which machine

Training records connect to specific machines, so a shift supervisor can confirm an operator is authorised and current before they start, not after an incident.

Authorised, at a glance

Overview

Manufacturing environments combine machinery risk, hazardous substances and shift-based workforces. SafetyOps brings Risk Assessments, PUWER, COSHH and Training together so your team can see equipment and substance status without switching systems.

Common risks

  • Machinery entanglement and guarding failures
  • Exposure to hazardous substances (dusts, chemicals)
  • Manual handling injuries on the production floor

Applicable legislation

Recommended SafetyOps modules

Equipment & PUWER

Work equipment checks and guarding records for production machinery.

COSHH register

Hazardous substances used on the production floor, tracked by location.

Workforce competence

Training and certification records connected to every operator.

SafetyOps AI

How AI helps your team

Understands your machinery and substances

Describe production-floor work in plain English and SafetyOps AI highlights the PUWER, COSHH and manual-handling considerations to check.

Tracks operator competency

SafetyOps monitors machine-operator training expiry and recommends refresher training before it lapses.

AI helps, guides and highlights — it never replaces the judgement of a competent person, and SafetyOps never claims guaranteed legal compliance.

Typical workflow

  1. Register production machinery in the Equipment Register
  2. Log substance data in the COSHH register
  3. Track operator training against each machine
  4. Route defects and review findings through the Action Centre

Frequently asked questions

Does SafetyOps replace our COSHH assessments?
No. SafetyOps AI helps you build and organise COSHH assessments faster, but a competent person always reviews and confirms them before they're relied on.
Can SafetyOps track which operators are authorised on which machine?
Yes. Equipment records connect to authorised operators, so you can see at a glance who is trained and authorised to use a specific machine.
Is SafetyOps suitable for a single production site or multiple sites?
Both. Sites and Locations let you scope machinery, substances and risk assessments to the right location, whether you run one factory or several.
