  N/A

(c) The working environment including aircraft hangars, component workshops and office accommodation is appropriate for the task carried out and in particular special requirements observed. Unless otherwise dictated by the particular task environment, the working environment must be such that the effectiveness of personnel is not impaired:

• 1. Are temperatures maintained such that personnel can carry out required tasks without undue discomfort?

  Yes

  No

  N/A

• Guidance: Regulation 7 Temperature in indoor workplaces: 61 The temperature in a workplace should normally be at least 16 degrees Celsius. If work involves rigorous physical effort, the temperature should be at least 13 degrees Celsius. However, these temperatures may not necessarily provide reasonable comfort, depending on other factors such as air movement, relative humidity and worker clothing. Temperature readings should be taken close to workstations, at working height and away from
  windows.

• 2. Is dust and any other airborne contamination kept to a minimum and not be permitted to reach a level in the work task area where visible aircraft/component surface contamination is evident?(Where dust/other airborne contamination results in visible surface contamination, all susceptible systems are sealed until acceptable conditions are re-established).

  Yes

  No

  N/A

• 3. Is lighting such, as to ensure each inspection and maintenance task can be carried out in an effective manner?

  Yes

  No

  N/A

• HSE minimum lighting recommendations and CAA publication CAP 716 provide guidance on lighting requirements.

• 4. Noise shall not distract personnel from carrying out inspection tasks. Where it is impractical to control the noise source, such personnel are provided with the necessary personal equipment to stop excessive noise causing distraction during inspection tasks. Are noise levels such that they are considered a distraction?

  Yes

  No

  N/A

• HSE Control of noise at work regulations 2005 provides guidance WRT noise, in conjunction with the requirement specified above.

• 5. Does the particular maintenance task require the application of specific environmental conditions different to the foregoing? (Specific conditions are identified in the maintenance data).

  Yes

  No

  N/A

• 6. The working environment for line maintenance is such that the particular maintenance or inspection task can be carried out without undue distraction. Therefore where the working environment deteriorates to an unacceptable level in respect of temperature, moisture, hail, ice, snow, wind, light, dust/other airborne contamination, the particular maintenance or inspection tasks must be suspended until satisfactory conditions are re-established.

  Yes

  No
