Overview
What this RAVS document does
Flammable and combustible liquids and gases - fuels, solvents, and the vapours they give off - can ignite or explode when they are stored, handled, or used carelessly. Hiring clients require this element because they need to see a contractor controls ignition sources and stores these substances safely.
This document states your company's flammable and combustible substances program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: identification and classification, safe storage and handling, ignition source control, ventilation, and worker training. Each point ties back to Part 10 of the Alberta OHS Code. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
