What are ‘Site Specific’ Safety Files?
Safety files are a set of documents relating to a specific site and show that the steps you have taken to ensure that no one is going to get injured.
While a company will generally do similar work on many sites, each site will carry its own specific hazards and risks.
Safety Files generally include:
Employees and their training
Medicals
Appointments – Who is responsible for what?
Policy – What has management decided about how the company will operate?
Procedures – How will things get done safely?
Hazard and risk – Identify them, and state what is going to be done to reduce or eliminate them.
Working at height – what to do so nobody falls.
Education – The key to safer sites.
Incidents and Accidents – What to do if they occur. How to avoid a repeat incident.
Registers and checklists – Are tools and equipment in good condition, and fit for purpose?
