Overview
What this RAVS document does
Every worksite relies on a base layer of general safety precautions - housekeeping, signage, safe access, and the everyday practices that prevent the most common incidents. Hiring clients require this element because it shows a contractor manages the routine hazards, not only the high-profile ones.
This document states your company's general safety precautions in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: housekeeping, worksite signage and barricading, safe access and egress, general worker conduct, and worker responsibilities. Each point ties back to Alberta OHS legislation. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies

- A written general safety precautions program with a clear purpose and scope
- Housekeeping and the control of slip, trip, and fall hazards
- Worksite signage, barricading, and hazard identification
- Safe access and egress to and from work areas
- General worker conduct and safe work practices
- Roles and responsibilities for employers, supervisors, and workers

Who it is for
Who needs this RAVS
This RAVS is for Alberta contractors whose hiring clients require the general safety precautions element in ISNetworld, Avetta, or ComplyWorks. It applies to every type of contractor, because general precautions underpin work on every site - construction, oil and gas, utilities, transportation, and the trades. If a hiring client's pre-qualification configuration flags general safety precautions, this is the document the reviewer is waiting on.
Practical guidance
How to pass the general safety precautions review the first time
- Use the Alberta version. The document is written to Alberta OHS legislation, the framework ISNetworld reviewers expect for Alberta work.
- Treat housekeeping as real safety. A reviewer wants housekeeping handled as hazard control - slips, trips, and falls - not as tidiness.
- Cover access and egress. The RAVS describes safe access to and from work areas. Confirm this is part of your everyday worksite setup.
