OVERVIEW

• Instructions or procedures are adequate for most work activities, but some require extra care. A “permit to work” is a more formal system stating exactly what work is to be done and when, and which parts of the work are safe. Employees undertaking the job sign the permit to show that they understand the risks involved and what precautions are necessary.
• This Permit to Work Awareness course will enable managers to assess the requirements of a particular job or task and ensure that Permit to Work documentation is completed correctly -and that employees undertaking hazardous activities are competent to do so safely.

• All employees participating in a Permit to Work system.

A Permit to Work (PTW) system ensures that formal validation and authority is given when hazardous work is to be undertaken. It ensures that all components of the Safe System of Work are established before high risk work commences, thereby controlling and reducing risk to individuals and the Organization.
