A new initiative by the British Occupational Hygiene Society (BOHS) is set to enhance air safety in industrial settings with the introduction of ‘P’ proficiency qualifications. These qualifications formally acknowledge the skills and knowledge required for the effective operation of Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) systems.
Filtermist Limited, a leading company in the field of air filtration, has ensured all its LEV Test Engineers are certified to at least the minimum P601 level. Many team members hold multiple P certificates, underscoring the company’s commitment to maintaining high safety standards. This is exemplified by long-serving Installation Engineer, Romans, who is one of the many skilled professionals at Filtermist.
The new ‘P’ qualifications play a significant role in verifying contractor competency, specifically concerning the safe operation and installation of LEV systems. These systems are crucial in ensuring the air within production facilities remains clean and safe for workers to breathe, thus reducing health risks associated with poor air quality.
Filtermist’s adherence to these new standards highlights the company’s dedication to providing a safe working environment across various industrial sectors. By prioritising qualifications and training, Filtermist continues to lead in creating safer workplaces, which is an essential assurance for manufacturing facilities worldwide.
To find out more about the ‘P’ qualifications and their impact on LEV contractor competency, Filtermist encourages stakeholders and industry participants to delve deeper into the significance of these certifications for improved health and safety measures in the manufacturing industry.
