  • Ашиглах заавар: Энэхүү сар тутмын хяналт шалгатын хуудас нь ХАБЭАБОны үзлэг шалгалтын зориулалтаар хийгдсэн болно. ХАБЭАБОны нийцлийн шалгуур үзүүлэлтийн тоо нь тухайн салбар нэгжийн онцлогоос хамаарна. Хэрэв тухайн салбар нэгжид тухайн хэсэг хамааралгүй бол бөглөхгүй байж болно. Тухайн хэсэг тус бүр Y, N, NA гэсэн хариулттай. Танай салбар нэгжийн нийцлийн үр дүн зөвхөн Y, N гэсэн хариултад тулгуурлан автоматаар бодогдож гарч ирнэ. Хяналт шалгалт дууссаны дараа "Сарын Хяналт Шалгалтын Үр дүнгийн Тайлан" дээр дарж, үл нийцлийн тайлангаа гаргана. "Үл нийцлийн жагсаалт" товчин дээр дарахад жагсаалт нь автоматаар гарна. Хариуцах эзэн болон эцсийн хугацааны багануудыг бөглөнө. Илэрсэн үл нийцлүүдийн хувьд одоогийн төлөв байдал болон авах арга хэмжээний багануудыг бөглөнө. Хяналт шалгалтын тайланг сар бүрийн сүүлийн Баасан гарагаас өмнө гаргаж, HSE SharePoint дээр тавих хэрэгтэй бөгөөд дараа сарын эхний долоо хоног дуусахаас өмнө нэвтэрч үзэх боломжтой байна

  • Хамгаалалтын бээлий нь тусгай химийн бодистой ажиллахад тохиромжтой эсэх Хэрэглэж байгаа бодисын MSDS ийг шалгаж өгч байгаа бээлий тухайн шаардлагыг хангаж байгаа эсэхийг шалгах

Бүх бодисуудыг дэлхий нийтэд хүлээн зөвшөөрөгдсөн систем буюу GHS ын шаардлагуудын тодорхой бөгөөд зөв хаяглагдсан байна уу? Шилэн эдлэлүүдийн нөхцөл байдал хэвийн бөгөөд хагарсан шил савыг ашиглалтаас хассан байна уу?

  • Худалдаанд байгаа химийн бодисууд нь үйлдвэрлэгчээсээ зөв хаяглагдсан байх шаардлагатай.

Quarterly Audit

  • Instructions for Use: This template Quarterly Inspection is designed for a "walk through" inspection. A number of HSE compliance criteria are applied to each section of the site. If a section is not relevant to your site, do not complete that section. In relevant sections, enter Y, N or NA as your answer. Your compliance rate will be automatically calculated based only on the questions answered Y or N. On completion, open the 'Formulate Monthly Report' sheet and click the 'Format List button'. A list of noncompliances will be automatically displayed. Complete the responsibilities and due date columns. As noncompliances are addressed, complete the status and action columns. The report is due the last Friday of every month and is to be posted on HSE Sharepoint where access is currently available before the end of the first week of the new month
