DEFINITION

SAFETY AUDIT-

IS0 19011 : 2002Systematic, independent & documented process for obtaining audit evidence and evaluating it objectively to determine the extent to which audit criteria are fulfilled

IS 14489Systematic examination to determine whether activities& arrangements are implemented effectively to prevent accidents

8

DEFINITION

SAFETY AUDIT-

1) It is a systematic ,objective approach to verify both safety compliance and the systems in place to manage safety responsibilities

2) Overall safety performance improvement

3) Co-operative effort between plant personnel &audit team

9

TOM- Top of The Mind

Audit is Systematic

Inspection is RANDOM

Audit Criteria is Standard

10

WHY?

SAFETY AUDIT-

1) Respect to legislation

2) Compliance to standards

3) Management Tool to assess

4) Standard Methodology

5) Viewed by Outside parties

6) Done By Unbiased Audit team

7) Open & transparent system

11

Purpose of Safety audit

PurposeMinimize Losses

Prevent InjuriesUnsafe act

elimination

Hazard Recognition&

Control

Periodic Monitoring &

appraisal

Self Evaluation&Accident Prevention

12

Role in safety Management

Safety Performance is evaluated by indicators like LTIFR ,Severity rates& Losses in financial &Man hours

Indicators are quantitative in nature

Safety audit is a methodology that evaluates Qualitative performance and indicates the Character of overall Safety ,Programme/Performance

Judges it’s effectiveness

13

Role in safety Management

“An audit is Technique designed to ensure that standards achieved at any given place of work and other places affected by work activities conform as closely as possible to the objectives specified by the management for the control of risk of injury and ill health, and damage to property, plant &equipment and environment and to provide information to the management to justify continuation of same strategy or change of course”

14

Role in safety Management

The vibration analysis reveals it’s out of

balance.At 7 mm/sec it’s only

slightly rough.

That’s good!We can continue

operations but plan maintenance.

SAFETY FIRST

15

Audit Objectives

16

Audit Objectives1. Identify Deviations fro planned operating

&Maintenance procedures and Standards

2. Identify plant conditions or operating procedures that could lead to an accident and significant losses in life or property

3. Ensure that the plant &operating procedures match the design ,intent standards

4. Keep operating personnel alert to the process hazards

5. Review of operating procedures for necessary revisions

17

Audit Objectives

6. Seek to identify equipment or process changes that could lead to new hazards

7. Initiate application of new technology to existing hazard mitigation

8. Review adequacy of safety inspection

9. Look for major risk situations and

10. Recommend measures to improve overall safety performance of the plant

Types of Audit

Types of Audit

External(Consultant/Third Party) Internal((Corporate/In house)

CLI

RLI

NSC

VSC

From Other Units

Local Plant Personnel

Other Deptt. Personnel

ODSO/NDO/OWSO

20

Internal Audit

These comprise in company teams that addressPlant safety inspections carried out by Trained EngineersInternal safety Audits conducted by Multi functional & Multi disciplinary officersPlant Inspections by safety Committee membersAudit Team from sister units in multi unit organizations

21

External Audit

External audits are done by Independent &third Party agencies ,they are

1. Government: Central &Regional Labour Institutes of

DGFASLI organization2. Public Sector Undertakings: Leading Engineering &Consultancy

organisations like EIL(Engineer’s India Limited,) FACT Engineering &design organization etc.

22

External Audit

3. Semi Government &Autonomous Body/Professional body associations:

They are like National Safety Counil, (NSC) Loss Prevention Association of India.

4. Private Consultants:

Many private company's are available in the field works

23

External Audit -Merits & De-Merits

3. Merits : Free from Bias Independent Evaluation Backed up by professional status &expertise Wide range of experience Better knowledge of statutory Provisions Brings industry standard good practices

Demerits Recommendations may be more general in Nature Constraints in implementation

24

Internal Audit -Merits & De-Merits

4. Merits : Familiarity with the technology Long Years of experience &detailed knowledge of operations Better probing Greater detailing &Easy implementation. Better knowledge of statutory Provisions specific to industry Demerits Limited Exposure of the best in class standards Unwillingness to change

25

Internal Audit -External audit

At HZL –CSC we Have both Safety systems of audit in Practice & place

27

Motivation for Audits

28

Motivation for Audits

Initiative of Local management Unit Management decides to have an

independent assessment To institute improvement Motivation reflects Confidence in The

management of organisation’s safety programmes

29

Motivation for Audits

Direction from External agencies As directed by Factories inspectors while processing for Clearances required

for expansion of plants Sought by financial institutions Mandatory under Certification process

30

Motivation for Audits

Direction from Top management Amended safety &environment legislations

place responsibility on Top Management Top management are keen in third party

Inspections Directives from specific to nature of Industry

31

Authorization, Scope &Frequency of Safety Audit

32

Authorization

Organization’s policy &unit management directivesClearly spelt objectives & policy statement

Allocation of Resources & Manpower

Commitment to implement changes

33

Scope of Safety audit

All activities as per objectives

To gain employee involvement

Encourage comments & suggestions related to safety

Invite co operation

Discover condition that need correction

bringing to an approved safety standard

It is an appraisal

34

Frequency of Safety Audit

General Guide is Normally once in a year

In chemical &Maintenance functions its periodic in nature

More Frequent inspections in the areas of Specific to certain activities Eg Boilers, Hoists etc.

Based on accident &injury records the high risk areas are to be prioritized and require frequent inspection

35

Surveillance techniques

36

Surveillance Audit Techniques

1. Safety Audit2. Safety Survey3. Safety Inspection4. Safety Tour5. Safety Sampling6. Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP)

37

Safety Audit1. subjects each area of a company’s activity to a

systematic critical examination with the object of

minimizing loss.2. Every component of the total system is included.

– aims to disclose the strengths and the weaknesses - the main areas of vulnerability or risk- is carried out by appropriately qualified personnel,- including safety professionals. - A formal report and action plan is subsequently

prepared and monitored.

38

Safety Survey

A safety Survey is a detailed examination in depth of a narrower field of activity, e.g. major key areas revealed by Safety Audits,

individual plants, procedures or specific problems common to a work as a whole.

These too are followed by a formal report, action plan and subsequent monitoring.

39

• A routine, scheduled inspection of a unit or department which carried out by personnel within the unit, possibly accompanied person from outside.

• The inspection would check maintenance standards, employee involvement, work practices, and that work is carried out in accordance with procedure etc.,

Safety Inspection

40

Safety Tour

An unscheduled examination of work area,

Carried out by any one of a range of personnel from works managers to safety committee members,

To ensure that e.g. standards of housekeeping are at an acceptable level, obvious hazards are removed and in general that safety standards are observed.

41

Safety Sampling

• A specific application of Safety Inspection/Tour designed to measure by random sampling the accident potential by counting safety defects.

• Trained observers record the number of safety defects seen while touring specified location by a prescribed route. Typically, tour last only 15 minutes and are conducted at weekly intervals.

• The un weighted count of defects is used to portray trends in the safety situation.

42

• The application of a formal critical examination to the process and engineering intensions of new facilities to assess the hazard potential of mal-operation or mal-functioning of individual items of equipment and the consequential effects on the facility as a whole.

• Remedial action is then usually possible at a very early stage of the project with maximum effectiveness and minimum cost.

• The techniques can also be applied to existing assets.
