Substance register

What is on site, and where it is stored.

  • On the file

    What is on site, where it is stored, and the safety data sheet.

  • Duty

    COSHH 2002

  • Where it is used

    On site, when the substance arrives.

What it does

  • The inventory of substances, with the safety data sheet attached.
  • Location, quantity, and who holds it.
  • A new substance does not sit in a van until it is on the register.

On the file

  • The substance
  • The quantity
  • Where it is stored
  • Who holds it
  • The safety data sheet
  • The day it arrived

How this duty should sit

These notes describe how the duty should sit on a digital record. Pure Safety today ships incidents, observations, and actions — not a separate screen for every module on this list.

  • The inventory is the one the site is using, not a list from mobilisation.
  • Searchable. You are not flicking through a folder when someone asks.

The duty

UK law. We name it. We do not invent a badge.

  • COSHH 2002

    You cannot control a substance you have not listed.

  • Who uses it

    Whoever receives it adds it. The COSHH assessment uses the same list.

  • Sits with

    The inventory the COSHH assessment starts from.

  • What good looks like

    The list matches what is on site, including what is still in the van.
