SOPs for power tools and other equipment which introduce increased levels of risk in their operation have been developed.

Users are required to confirm that they have read these after completing an induction (which may take Recognition of Prior Learning into account) on each item of equipment, and copies are displayed adjacent to where the equipment is stored or installed.
