About this report
This routine report should be completed every day before any visitors access the facility and at another appropriate time in the day and will replace the hourly QC report. Close inspection should be given to all aspects of the environment and the infrastructure.
The purpose of creating this report has multiple uses:
To assist at some point in the future to recreate the specific detail of weather and the ice surface of a particular session for the purposes of an investigation into an incident.
To assist in the identification of issues associated with the refrigeration plant or ice surface and by checking them on an hour basis will avoid them becoming an issue.
Document issues that if they should be recurring steps can be taken to rectify the issue.
Provide background information to a refrigeration engineer in the event of breakdown.
It is your opportunity to communicate issues to the Management team, and be proactive in providing a safe and efficient location.
In the event that in your opinion something or someone is un-safe you should report it to Mr/Mrs Jo Bloggs 0800 123456
If you have any suggestions or urgent messages please add them to the email in the export window. -
