Questions each of us should ask …….
Is there an up to date induction for all the areas where you work ?
Have you been recently inducted for all the areas where you work ?
If the answer to either of these questions is No, talk to your Team
Leader and resolve the issue.
Inductions
We Induct personnel because we have both Legal and Moral
responsibilities to comply with legislation i.e. HASAWA (Information and
Training) & Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) order 2005.
By inducting people we comply with these requirements, and advise
new people (and remind existing staff) about…….
Hazards in the area
Safe systems of work that need to be followed
Location of key facilities i.e. Fire Call Points and Fire Assembly
Points, emergency exits, amenities, car parks
Accounting of people - In/out system & visitor/host responsibilities
What to do in the event of a toxic release or fire
Of expected standards, and who to go to for assistance
The process to follow if an injury is sustained
We should review induction packs on at least an annual basis to make
sure changes to the location or processes have been captured.
We should re-induct personnel whenever significant changes are made,
and every 3 years in any event – people forget what they are told !
