Plant and Equipment Risk Assessment (PERA) for Padfoot Rollers
Ensure Safety and Compliance with Our Comprehensive PERA
We understand the importance of maintaining safety standards in the workplace, especially when operating heavy machinery like padfoot rollers. Our Plant and Equipment Risk Assessment (PERA) provides a detailed analysis of potential hazards associated with padfoot roller operations, ensuring that you are fully compliant with industry regulations and that your team remains safe.
This risk assessment covers the safe operation and maintenance of a padfoot roller, commonly used in compaction tasks on construction sites. It includes the identification of hazards, potential risks, control measures, and responsibilities to ensure the safety of operators and other workers on site.

The requirements are outlined in the Managing risks of plant in the workplace code of Practice.
