Yes No NA NS * Inspector A PTW "working at height" was issued to the inspector prior to going on the monkey island to have a closer look at the condition of some of antennae. A generic risk assessment was used.The RA considered the risks of falls,dropped items, use of ladders etc. A tool box talk was undertaken and amongst other items a rescue plan was devised and the correct use of safety harness with a fall arrester was discussed. Full PPE was checked. The PTW was issued and the job undertaken. Post task the PTW was signed closed and an opportunity was given to discuss how the job might have been safer Operator At the time of inspection, comment on the number of tasks managed by permit. The inspector should try to confirm that the relevant permit controls are in place at the worksite.

Does the PTW detail all the safety equipment and procedures required? This atmosphere test should be conducted both before and during the enclosed space entry to ensure acceptable limits are maintained throughout the operation. Atmosphere measuring instrumentation should be calibrated; a process should be in place for ensuring staff are trained and aware of limitations of gas meters. Records should be fully completed and signed off when work completed. Enclosed spaces should be adequately ventilated during entry. Vent fans should be available and be operated in extraction mode when in use. What type of breathing apparatus is available; if there are limitations on its use, is there a process for ensuring staff are aware of these limitations? What rescue equipment is made available for use, and where will it be located? Enclosed spaces should be identified and labelled with procedures in place for entry. Check for date of last enclosed space rescue drill.
