Users should bear in mind the following considerations, amongst others, when specifying tags:
Clear and Durable: Use more weatherproof, tear-resistant tags if they’ll be exposed to the elements.
Visible Placement: Attach the tag in a prominent location where users can easily see it before use.
Detailed Information: Consider capturing some or all of the following information: Date of inspection / Inspector's name or initials / Equipment ID or serial number / Inspection findings / Next inspection date (if applicable)
Colour Coding: Use consistent colour coding for easy identification of equipment status.
Replace When Needed: Tags should be updated or replaced after every inspection or when conditions change.
Documentation: Log inspection details in a maintenance system or paper record for tracking and compliance
