Slingco sister company Thurra supports local manufacturers

Thurra has produced a comprehensive guide on manufacturing and industrial inspections for factories, workshops, engineering, fabrication and industrial sites.

Each year in manufacturing, an average of 22 workers die in workplace accidents. There is also an average of more than 3,100 reports of major injuries and about 4,100 reports of injuries that kept workers away from work for seven days or more.

According to the HSE, many manufacturing workers also suffer ill health from workplace exposures. It is estimated that each year an average of 33,000 workers suffer from illness caused or made worse by their current or most recent job in manufacturing.
