Overview
What this RAVS document does
Lead is a cumulative poison, and work that disturbs lead-based paint, lead solder, or lead-containing material can expose workers without any obvious sign. Hiring clients require a lead answer because they need to see exposure is identified and controlled.
This document states your company's lead program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: how lead-containing material and lead tasks are identified, exposure controls and containment, respiratory protection and hygiene, worker training, and health monitoring. Each point ties back to Part 4 of the Alberta OHS Code. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies
What ISNetworld checks
ISNetworld does not just check that a lead answer exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For the lead element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- A written lead program with a clear purpose and scope
- Identification of lead-containing material and lead-generating tasks
- Exposure controls and containment
- Respiratory protection and personal hygiene practices
- Worker training on lead hazards
- Health monitoring where exposure warrants it

Who it is for
Who needs this RAVS
This RAVS is for Alberta contractors whose hiring clients require the lead element in ISNetworld, Avetta, or ComplyWorks. It applies to painting, abrasive blasting, demolition, renovation, and industrial maintenance contractors whose work can disturb lead-containing material. If a hiring client's pre-qualification configuration flags lead, this is the document the reviewer is waiting on.
Practical guidance
How to pass the lead review the first time
- Use the Alberta version. The document is written to Part 4 of the Alberta OHS Code, the framework ISNetworld reviewers expect for Alberta work.
- Cover hygiene, not just PPE. Lead is carried home on clothing and hands - a reviewer wants washing and decontamination practices in the program, not respirators alone.
- Identify lead before work. A reviewer expects lead-containing material to be identified before a task disturbs it.
