EEESafe. A Standard for Ethical Repairs on White Goods

The Standard is backed by the Trade Association Domestic Appliance Service Association. www.dasa.org.uk It is also supported by Dixon Training, who is the world renowned Author of the Haynes Repair Manuals for Domestic Appliances. www.dixontraining.co.uk Graham Dixon has been training on appliance repairs for many commercial companies for over 30 years.

EEESafe, with this support, have issued a Competence Based Scheme that consumers can recognise as being expert in their field, and operate safe practices in the consumers home.

The Electrical Safety Council www.esc.org.uk has reported from its research, there are 70 Fatalities and 350,000 serious injuries annually that are attributable to faulty appliances. It’s recognised that some of this could be due to a fault in manufacturing, but it’s equally possible that further accidents could be preventable through working to a safer standard of repair by using an evidence based competent and experienced person. It’s been widely known that anyone can set themselves up as a Domestic Appliance Repairer, and EEESafe seek to reduce the potential of rogue entrants into the sector and recognise those who have done a great job already and are happy to be more accountable for their work. However, EEESafe is more than that, because it’s committed to a sustainable ethic of Waste Prevention and Positive Social Outcomes.
