AS1851:2005 compliance and youThe wider business community is starting to feel the significant impact brought by the introduction of the new Australian Standard AS1851: 2005 (Maintenance of Fire Protection Systems and Equipment). Why? Because there are various legislative and regulatory issues, OH&S, insurance impacts, costs and other matters that lie beyond the technical aspects that affect the decision making of business leaders and property professionals.
Service demands have increased and the importance of document management has increased with it. The amount of test questions has jumped by an average of 30%, which will place further time demands on those responsible for ensuring those systems are ready to operate at all times.
At Verified, we have fully compliant logbooks ready-to-order since the implementation of the new standard last year. In fact, clients have been using them since day one. If your company is ready to make the switch, contact Verified today on 03 9544 4500.
