SAFETY CHECK LIST

This trade-specific guide is designed to help you take care of the occupational health and safety of all the workers in your company.  It contains all the key occupational safety factors in the form of an easy to use safety checklist.  By using it you can determine what points are in order and what still needs to be improved.  You can also calculate the ‘safety rating’  for your company, representing the proportion of safety points that are in order.

 

In theory this rating could vary from 0 - 100% but in practice it is unlikely that any company would be in a position where everything, or indeed nothing, would need to be changed.  Companies can use the rating as a tool for setting objectives: if the current rating is 65%, for example, a target of achieving an 85% rating by the following year could be set.

 

Creating a good working environment need not necessarily cost money.  A tidy, well-ordered work place with properly working equipment actually enhances productivity as well as occupational safety.  Everyone benefits.  The company’s costs are lower since lost time, accidents, damage and absence from work are all reduced.  Workers are more content at work and they stay healthier.  Society in turn benefits from a competitive company which generates employment and tax income without burdening the social and health budgets.

 

The employer is also bound by law to regularly monitor working conditions, determine possible hazards and to estimate the potential risk they represent.  This guide will help in the monitoring process and form a basis for developing safety measures and for the company's occupational safety programme.


 

(Page 3,4)

HOW TO USE THE CHECK LIST

When defining safety, you must consider all the employees within the company as well as all the different job functions.  If necessary the list can be completed separately for different types of work.  Some of the items on the list are best completed actually at the work station and/or through discussion with individual employees.  The list should be completed once a year or as the situation demands when changes occur within the company.

 

Complete the check list by simply marking a cross under the heading ‘in order’, ‘not in order’ or ‘not applicable’.  A matter is in order when it meets statutory requirements or the safety rules defined by the company.  If a matter does not meet these requirements, ‘not in order’ should be ticked and if the whole question does not apply, simply tick ‘not applicable’.

 

If you are not sure whether a matter is in order or not, omit the question and the matter can be discussed later.  It could mean that additional information is required, for example, from the occupational health department or in the form of occupational hygiene surveys etc.

 

The check list also contains possible measures that can be usefully taken, especially to correct matters which are not in order.  You can tick items of possible interest which will hopefully stimulate your own thoughts about safety at the work place.

SUMMARY AND SAFETY RATING

To calculate the safety rating of a company or organization, all the information is collated on one form.  This shows at a glance how many things are ‘in order’, and how many are not.  The form helps you to calculate simply the aggregate percentage of things that are in order.

On this form you should note all measures to be taken, the name of the person responsible and the agreed timetable.  It is a good idea to monitor compliance with these decisions, but at the very latest this will become obvious when the check list is next carried out, preferably within at least twelve months.

It is the responsibility of every employer to evaluate the health and safety conditions at the workplace on a regular basis and to make the necessary improvements.  This guide is designed specifically to help smaller companies and places of work to meet this obligation.  Different trades have different specific hazards.  This guide features a trade-specific safety checklist which the company can use to assess its own situation.  The guide also contains proposed measures to improve health and safety.

 

This first edition has been produced to ensure it works in practice.  This is why your feedback is required and why you will find an evaluation form inside.  All views will be taken on board and any necessary changes will be implemented before the actual publication at the end of 1988. 

Thank you in advance for your help!
