Ask them if they still have the green chemical apron. If yes, confiscate it.

  • Has the SE demonstrated the proper inspection technique for electrical gloves and sleeves?<br><br>Have them demonstrate how to perform the flip rollup test. Do not allow them to do the twist test…it damages the gloves. See if they inspect the fingers, cuff, etc. .<br>

Have they covered / draped items that cannot be removed?

  • If hot work is required, did another Person perform the Fire Watch duties?<br><br>This IS required if hot work is preformed. Ask the fire watch SE what training they have had. They must answer Fire Extinguisher training

  • Did the Fire Watch attend their post for at least 60 minutes after hot work? <br><br>Ask them how long they must remain at the fire watch after the end of the hot work. Answer…either 60 minutes or longer if the customer requires it.

Where did they go to identify all sources of energy? <br>

  • Have all energy sources (electrical & mechanical) been locked out and tagged?<br><br>Ask the associate to show you the locks and tags on all lockout points. Ask them…” how do they know that all sources of energy have been isolated…What they are doing today that requires LOTO?” FYI – red flag if they state NA. Liebert ONLY - CoHE procedures exist for almost all tasks. Ask them to show you where the CoHE instruction is for their task. Ask them what a Liebert HERT chart is, and how it is used to verify de-energized state. Have them show you the Liebert HERT table for the specific task being performed.

  • Require a demonstration of LOTO…did SE perform the procedure correctly?<br><br>Almost all work requires some form of CoHE. Verify that the CoHE steps were followed.

  • Has the SE tested the circuit / component being worked on to verify that it is at a zero energy state (de-energized) using a company approved voltage detector?​​​ <br><br>Review the meter. Make sure that it is a Class III or Class IV meter. <br>

  • Does the SE have a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)?

  • Has SE requested a current One Line diagram for the electrical distribution, from the Customer?<br><br>If yes, ask if the Service Engineer discussed the One Line with the customer…have there been any changes since the One Line was created.

All of the above conditions must be met to assure a safe lift every time they lift any weight above 2.2 pounds (1 Kg).<br>

  • Did the Service Engineer (SE) create a “clear path” before lift and carry? <br><br>A clear path allows Service Engineers to keep load in front of them, and keep balance. <br>

  • When the SE transports their equipment to the job site are they limiting the weight and distance they carry or are they using material handling devices?

  • Has the SE reduced the stresses of overhead work by reducing the duration of time, weight and effort?<br><br>If SEs are working with hands above their shoulders, their elbows will rise up away from their body. This creates stress on shoulder and upper back. This should be avoided. If they cannot avoid, break this activity up…do a little over shoulder or over head work, then stop and do something else to allow muscles to rest

  • If the company has established a maximum safe lifting limit, did the SE understand and conform to the policy limit? ​ <br><br>If applicable, ask them to tell you the company’s maximum safe lifting limit.
