Inspection systems
April 1st 2008 A simple, pre-shift
inspection of plant
machinery and vehicles
could keep you from being
prosecuted under the
corporate Manslaughter Act,
says SG World.
The company provides
inspection systems that
consist of a simple checklist
and a highly visible safety
status indicator that shows
whether the equipment has
been inspected that day and
if it is safe to use. As the
checklists are provided in
duplicate, a master record is
automatically generated,
providing a comprehensive
audit trail.
The company believes
that such a system, along
with other control measures,
will help reduce the
opportunity for accidents
caused by unsafe vehicles.
