Why your builders need portable shower trailers 16 May 2022 When overseeing a construction or renovation project, there is a legal requirement to provide adequate welfare facilities for site workers. We look at things to consider when planning a project, so you have everything in place. Large renovation projects and construction sites present many hazards to the workforce employed on them, from the dirty conditions they will be working in, to the risk of exposure to potentially dangerous materials. The provision of portable toilet and portable shower facilities will help you to fulfill all your legal obligations. Health and Safety Executive (HSE) Guidelines The HSE is the government agency responsible for workplace health, safety and welfare and its guidelines state that on a construction or demolition site, workers must have access to large wash basins and running hot and cold water. The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 give guidance with particular reference to managing health and safety in construction. On projects with more than one contractor, clients share the responsibility for providing adequate facilities. Apart from compliance with government guidelines, portable shower rental from Fortis Hire Ltd. has many other benefits. Portable shower trailer rental from Fortis Hire Portable shower trailers give workers the opportunity to shower off the dust, dirt and debris of the day, before travelling home. This not only prevents extended or prolonged contact with harmful materials but helps to keep the interior of their vehicles in a cleaner state. Knowing that these facilities are in place for them will make workers feel valued, which will lead to increased productivity. We supply 4-bay, 5-bay and 6-bay shower trailers to suit individual site requirements. If no mains water is available, we are able to provide an intermediate bulk container (IBC) with pump. All trailers have individual, lockable shower cubicles each with mirror, seat and wash basin as well as a safety, non-slip floor covering. When choosing Fortis Hire, you can decide between short- or long-term hire contracts and rest in the knowledge that our staff will take responsibility for the delivery, installation and removal of all units; all that we ask for is a flat surface on which to site the unit! We also take responsibility for the removal and ethical disposal of all waste from the portable shower units and we can offer a maintenance and cleaning service so that regular personnel do not have to be diverted from their usual roles. All clients have full 24-hour access to support from emergency technicians for the entirety of the hire period.
