4,000+

This general permit to work template covers the entire Permit to Work System. Start by recording job details, tools and equipment to be used, and other work which may affect the tasks at hand. Next clearly identify tasks which are considered hazardous. You may conduct a risk assessment to evaluate uncontrolled or undetected hazards present on site. After which, ensure that precautions are being taken such as wearing proper PPE. Next endorse the Permit to Work to the Authorizing Officer for review before commencing work. Ensure that the permit information has been explained to all workers involved. Complete the audit by confirming that all necessary processes were rolled out and that it is safe to carry out the work defined. After the task is accomplished hand back the audit to the Authorizing personnel for confirmation and future reference.

Obtain Required Work Permit Checklist

This permit to work checklist helps ensure all requirements are in place before starting a task. It guides teams to clearly define the work area and task, complete a pre-task risk assessment, and attach required documents such as spade lists, vessel entry logs, and excavation certificates. It prompts identification of waste and disposal methods, verification of hot work restrictions and higher-level approvals, and confirmation that the permit is authorized, valid, and issued at the place of work. The checklist verifies remaining hazards, adequate and available PPE, any tool restrictions and additional precautions, and that all role players are authorized, competent, and trained on the permit to work procedure. It also covers sign-off upon completion, availability of the permit issuer, and noting any changes in conditions.
