British Safety Council supports ‘Battery Breakdown’ campaign

Commenting on British Safety Council’s support for the Battery Breakdown campaign, Phil Pinnington, head of audit and consultancy at British Safety Council said, “As with all new and developing technologies, the increasing use of e-bikes and scooters has prompted a wave of new questions, considerations, and challenges – not least for employers, as e-bikes and scooters have entered the workplace; and are routinely charged at (or under) our desks.

“British Safety Council is delighted to join other key supporters of this important campaign, and to work with Electrical Safety First to ensure that the future for e-bikes and e-scooters is both practical and safe.”
