Audit-ready
every day, not once a year.

A once-a-year consultancy audit tells you where you stood on one day. Vardeck runs the whole compliance backbone of your facility continuously — RIDDOR deadlines, risk-assessment reviews, Legionella checks, pool safety and COSHH — and scores your readiness every single morning.

Why it's different

Compliance is a state you hold, not a report you file

Consultancies photograph a moment. Vardeck runs the film — so the evidence an inspector, insurer or coroner asks for is already there, dated and signed.

Deadlines that chase you

RIDDOR windows, risk-assessment reviews and Legionella cadences are tracked automatically. If something is drifting out of date, the system tells the manager before it lapses — not after.

A daily readiness score

A weighted compliance score — water safety, safety systems, records and governance — recalculated continuously, so you know your position this morning, not at last year's audit.

Evidence, already signed

Every check, decision and reading is timestamped, attributed and retained for three years — the trail an HSE inspector, insurer or injury claim actually asks to see.

One system

Every compliance touchpoint, covered

From poolside water tests to the plant room to the accident book — the statutory duties of a UK leisure facility, in one place.
