Utilities Sector Welfare Units

Having sufficient welfare units for utilities contracts means that workers will have the proper facilities that are a requirement under health and safety rules.

Providing environmentally-friendly, clean and legally-compliant welfare facilities for utilities contracts is made a simple issue by EasyCabin. We manufacture a wide variety of mobile and static welfare units and toilets and can work with your project manager to ensure that your site is correctly equipped.

EasyCabin’s mobile, vehicle-mounted and static welfare units for utility workers are used throughout the UK and beyond. Energy performance is maintained by high standards of insulation, LED lighting, low carbon ‘air’ heating and fuel-saving battery/generator combinations.

HSE Compliance

The law states that clients and contractors have responsibilities regarding welfare facilities on construction projects.

Contractors are legally obliged to provide welfare facilities, and clients must ensure this happens. The pre-construction information prepared by the client should include the arrangements for welfare provision.

On notifiable projects (longer than 30 days or 500 person days), the client must ensure the construction phase does not start unless they are satisfied that there are arrangements for welfare facilities to be provided.

Contractors must maintain the welfare units for utility contracts throughout the life of the project. The nature and scale of facilities required will depend on the size, location and type of project. Facilities include:

Toilets
Washing facilities
Drinking water
Changing rooms and lockers
Facilities for rest
