UVEX SAFETY (UK) LTD are BSIF Registered Safety Suppliers
The British Safety Industry Federation (BSIF) has created the Registered Safety Supplier Scheme (RSSS) where companies displaying the scheme’s logo have signed a binding declaration that the safety equipment they offer meets the appropriate standards, fully complies with the PPE regulations and is appropriately CE marked.
Taking a stand on fake PPE
To help combat the influx of counterfeit and illegal PPE The British Safety Industry Federation (BSIF) has introduced the Registered Safety Supplier Scheme (RSSS). This scheme allows members to identify themselves as having made a formal declaration that they are selling only products that are genuine and legal. The Registered Safety Supplier Scheme acts as a signpost for people to ensure they can buy from a reputable company that they can trust to supply genuine legal products and provide good advice.
UVEX SAFETY (UK) LTD is a member of the BSIF Registered Safety Supplier Scheme and guarantees all its safety equipment meets the appropriate standards, fully complies with the PPE regulations and is appropriately CE marked. As a condition of the scheme, this is independently audited within our ISO 9001 Certification to verify conformance.
Anyone can sell safety, but you wouldn't buy safety from just anyone. Always specify the shield. |
CHECK-SELECT-PROTECT
Using certified goods when looking after your workforce is paramount when lives are at risk. Be aware of the type of counterfeit items available on the marketplace and remembering that offers that seem too good to be true usually are. Purchasing the right PPE is a big responsibility and safety equipment that doesn’t perform properly isn’t just inconvenient, it may actually cost lives.
1. CHECK
Check your supplier is BSIF Registered. BSIF audited suppliers are compliant, competent and trustworthy.
2. SELECT
Select appropriate, certified and approved products. Registered Safety Suppliers can support the product selection process through their competence, capability and knowledge.
3. PROTECT
Protect your people, your most precious asset, and help your business to thrive.
The Safety Supply Accreditation Course
The BSIF have developed the Safe Supply Accreditation Course to help customers have confidence that the advice they are receiving from their PPE supplier is accurate and the products are appropriate for their needs. The course is endorsed by NEBOSH, the National Education Board in Occupational Safety and Health.
