Book Description

A safety inspection is a formalized and properly documented process of identifying hazards in the workplace. Safety inspections come in all different forms depending on the environment being tested, but they generally compare results against acceptable standards to ensure that a given environment falls within acceptable safety limits. The inspection process involves various people, such as health and safety specialists, managers, supervisors, and members of health and safety management committees, depending on the type and frequency of inspection. The inspection process mainly focuses on four key areas: People: Workers, their behavior and methods Plant: Machinery, equipment and vehicles Premises: The workplace itself and the working environment Procedures: The methodologies, safe system of work and permit-to-work system The frequency of inspection depends upon the nature of work being done, the materials, substances and equipment involved in the work process and the procedures being followed.
