Pressure Systems Policy Writers
What are Pressure Systems Policies?
Pressure systems policies outline how organisations manage equipment that contains or uses pressurised fluids or gases, ensuring that it is designed, operated and maintained safely.
These policies help employers meet their legal duties under the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 (PSSR), protecting employees, contractors and the public from risks associated with stored energy release, leaks or explosions.
What Do Pressure Systems Policies Cover?
A pressure systems policy typically includes:
-
Identification of all pressure systems and related equipment on site
-
Risk assessment procedures and safe operating limits
-
Written schemes of examination and inspection intervals
-
Competence requirements for employees and contractors working with pressure systems
-
Emergency procedures in the event of leaks, ruptures or failures
-
Maintenance, repair and record-keeping requirements
-
Links to health and safety, equipment management and incident reporting policies
A clear policy ensures that equipment such as boilers, compressors and air receivers is properly managed and that safety-critical inspections are carried out by competent individuals.
It also helps organisations demonstrate compliance with the PSSR, reducing the likelihood of enforcement action, costly breakdowns or serious accidents.
Pressure systems incidents can cause significant harm and disruption. A structured approach to maintenance, inspection and risk control reduces the potential for catastrophic failure and provides reassurance to regulators, insurers and employees.
By embedding these practices, businesses can improve safety, extend the lifespan of equipment and demonstrate strong governance in high-risk operational environments.
