Fire Safety Audit

The work of construction site safety audit can be an essential tool to keep your projects on time and budget. Ongoing attention to safety and loss control is the ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

On a regular basis, identify and correct or eliminate workplace hazards, a safety audit of use of the site effectively minimizes accidents and injuries.

Here are nine relatively common security issues that are revealed by an audit of safety of the regular construction site:

Slicing

- The excessive depth increases the risk of collapse trenches

- Work must proceed only when the protection is in place collapse

- Reduce the protection can be accomplished with the proper slope.

Containers

gas cans must be clearly labeled as to contents and hazards.

Lifting Slings

Rigging must be decommissioned when heavily damaged or when wear sensors are visible.

Stairs

Stairs should be properly constructed with a steady and execution, secure steps, and railings in place.

Office Trailers

Unused access and gateways must be physically prevented from using it to prevent falls.

Loading Platforms

Guardrails to prevent falls, must have medium and high rails in place. Under certain conditions, the channels can be used.

Storing flammable liquids

A flammable storage cabinet must be installed and used in a building or a trailer where more than 25 gallons of flammable liquids are stored.

Extinguishers

storage trailers containing flammable or combustible materials must have fire extinguishers within 50 foot proximity.

Ladders

damaged ladders or ladder sections must be labeled "Do not use" until removed from site and destroyed.

With the risks identified in a timely fashion, many can be handled immediately, while others may require programming. Whether business interruption so can be minimized.
