LEV Hoods – Am I Required to Fit Hood Indicators & Gauges?
OXYL8 have recently produced a paper which considers whether there is a need in law for hood indicators/gauges. We know that HSE asks for these to be fitted but they also indicate in their LEV FAQ pages that there is no direct legal requirement.
But how would the Courts view this? We need to be aware of the fact that there are “explicit” and “implicit” requirements in the law. This article concludes that although there are no “explicit” requirements for hood indicators that in fact it is highly likely the Courts will see that hood indicators are ‘implied’ in law.
