Electrical Safety Policy

13.1 We will report robust key performance indicator (KPI) measures for electrical safety that follow the principles set out in the Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs). Although electrical safety is not specifically covered by these measures, we will adopt the same approach to ensure consistency with other compliance areas and ensure all dwellings at risk are accounted for.

13.2 Performance will be reported internally monthly to SMT and Cabinet. The position reported will be based on the following criteria:

Electrical Safety Checks: Proportion of homes for which all required electrical safety checks have been carried out.

13.3 The reported percentage will include all individual homes which require electrical safety checks and those homes within a communal block that are served by communal equipment. This ensures that all individual homes that may be at risk because of any non-compliance are identified, including those within a communal block that share an electrical source. The completion of remedial works is not included.

13.4 We will also report the following:

Data - the total number of:

• properties - split by category (domestic, communal, commercial/others)
• properties on the electrical inspection and testing programme - split by category (domestic, communal, commercial/others)
• properties not on the electrical inspection and testing programme
• properties with a satisfactory and in date EICR
• properties without a satisfactory and in date EICR
• properties due to be inspected and tested within the next 30 days; and
• overdue follow-up works/actions arising from the inspection programme

Narrative - an explanation of the:

• current position
• corrective action required
• anticipated impact of corrective action; and
• progress with completion of follow-up works

In addition:

• the number of RIDDOR notifications to the HSE with regards to electrical safety

13.5 The full detail of our performance measures for Electrical Safety will be outlined in a KPI Definition Document which includes the relevant data sources used for each calculation, the calculation methodology, any exclusions, and the accountable roles for producing and managing the KPIs.
