Would you put your eyes on this?

We get it — testing and inspections of emergency safety showers and eyewashes are just one of many jobs on your list. But when it comes to protecting your team, compliance with AS 4775 isn’t optional — it’s essential.
This blog post makes it simple and straightforward to ensure your decontamination systems are up to standard.

✅ Your Key Responsibilities (AS 4775 Made Simple)

According to AS 4775:2007, here’s what you’re required to do:

1. Weekly Run Test
Activate all safety showers and eyewash units weekly to ensure they’re working and to flush out any sediment or stagnant water.

2. Annual Inspection
Get a full system inspection by a suitably qualified person at least once every year. This includes verifying flow rates, spray patterns, temperature (tepid water), and unobstructed access.

These checks keep your team safe — and your site compliant.
