Overview
What this RAVS document does
Operating and maintaining machinery safely depends on competent operators, controlled clothing and jewellery near moving parts, and equipment that is immobilized when left unattended. A hiring client that configures this element wants to see that program written down.
This document states your company's machine safety program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: clothing and jewellery near moving parts, starting machinery, the operator's responsibility to check the area, immobilizing unattended machines, and handling defective equipment. Each point ties back to The Occupational Health and Safety Regulations. 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 machine safety answer exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For this element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- A written machine safety program with purpose and scope
- Control of clothing, jewellery, and hair near moving parts
- Operation of machines only by competent, trained workers
- The operator's responsibility to check the machine and surrounding area
- Immobilizing and securing a machine left unattended
- Handling defective equipment and protecting workers at risk
