Sports hall and Gymnasium inspection and maintenance
Every gymnasium and sports hall should have an annual inspection (at least) and maintenance carried out by a reputable company to ensure the facilities are safe for use. Olympic Gymnasium Services are the leading specialist providing inspection, maintenance and repair services for PE, gymnastic, sports and fitness equipment and sports surfaces. Some reasons for and benefits of having regular inspections and maintenance are:
- Establishments owe a Duty of Care to all users of their facilities;
- Teachers owe a high duty of care to students, the care that would be expected of a reasonable parent, whether in school, on weekends or holidays (in loco parentis);
- Legislation requires managers, PE teachers and coaches to have carried out Risk Assessments to identify risks and implement measures to mitigate these (the managing body or principle is responsible for ensuring such a system is in operation from 1/1/93);
- PE equipment carries a high risk and requires regular inspection and servicing by specialists - British Standard 1892 Part 1:1986 states "An inspection should be carried out at least once a year."
- "A stitch in time saves nine". It is generally more cost effective to keep your equipment in good order than have to pay for disposal and replacement or an extensive repair.
