The Necessity of Internal Inspections
While an annual Expert Inspection by a SEMA Approved Racking Inspector (SARI) is mandatory, it is legally insufficient on its own.HSE Guidance (HSG76) requires that every warehouse appoints P.R.R.S. (Person Responsible for Storage Equipment Safety);who must ensure weekly or regular internal inspections are performed.
