November 2007: Good practise for SMART sprayers by the Health & Safety Executive (HSE)

“This guide for SMART (small and medium-area repair technique) repair sprayers describes how you can adequately control risks to health, safety and the environment. It was prepared by a working group of industry and government representatives (including the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) to represent ‘good control practice’ as defined under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH), as amended. The working group members and their affiliation are listed at the back of this leaflet.

The guide tells you what is, and is not, permitted in SMART repairs by sprayers who have no fixed place of work. It is also useful for franchisees, managers and operators in motor vehicle dealership or repair who manage, carry out or commission SMART repair. To view the guide click the link below:
