⦁ Regulations provide exceptions for trainees; however, the regulations must be complied with regarding training, supervision and the keeping of records.

8.0. Procedure

Employers are to supply employees with appropriate PPE as determined by hazard analysis assessment that is documented in the Job Safety Analysis or Work Method Statements.

9.0. Selection and Use

⦁ Employers will ensure all items of PPE are manufactured, used and maintained according to the relevant Australian Standards. Proof of Australian Standards compliance will be provided i.e. labelling

⦁ All issues of PPE to each individual are to be recorded in the employer's Safety Management Plan.

⦁ Each employee will be instructed in the correct use and maintenance of the PPE item before use.

⦁ The employee when signing for the receipt of a PPE item should also acknowledge receipt of the relevant training

⦁ As a general guide, no person should be required to lift, lower or carry loads above 55kg unless mechanical assistance or team lifting arrangements are provided. It is also generally accepted that adults are less likely to have a back injury if the objects are kept below 16kg.

⦁ The weights between 16kg and 55kg therefore require more care in the assessment process. Mechanical assistance and/or team lifting arrangements should be provided to reduce the risk of injury associated with these heavier weights.

Test frequency for NSW domestic construction is each two months and each month for commercial/industrial construction.

Register

Regulations require a register of all electrical equipment to be used on the worksite or workshop to be recorded including the inspection expiry date as shown on the test tags.

Subcontractors must provide a copy of the register to the principal contractor as part of their Safety Management Plan before work commences.

10.6. Scaffolds 

All scaffolds must be erected and maintained to AS/NZS 1576.1:2010 Scaffolding – General requirements and other relevant legislative requirements.

When used in a working platform at a duty loading by AS/NZS 1576.1:2010 Scaffolding – General requirements the maximum working span of a scaffold plank shall not exceed the allowable span marked on the scaffold plank.

Notes:

a) Where scaffold planks are used as a single plank working platform, the spacing between supports may be increased to permit a deflection of span/80 at a working load indicated by the supplier.

b) Were multiple scaffold planks in a working platform are clamped together by a prefabricated component used by the supplier’s instructions, to prevent differential deflection, the spacing between supports may be increased to permit a deflection of span/80, provided that the working load on the platform does not exceed 240kg.

10.7. Scaffolds - continued

Ladders

Portable metal and timber stepladders, single and extension shall be industrial ladders and shall have a load rating of not less than 120kg.

10.9. Top Plate Hung Brackets 

Brackets shall be designed to support the intended loads in the most adverse position that a plank may be placed in. Where a bracket is intended to support a multiple-bay working platform, the effect of the concentration of dead and live loads from adjacent bays shall be considered.

Where a plank bracket is intended to support a guardrail, the bracket shall be capable of resisting, without permanent deformation.

Brackets shall be fabricated from steel or aluminium and shall be installed, used and maintained only as set out in the supplier’s documented information.

Note: A risk assessment may be necessary to determine the need for edge protection at a lesser height than 2m or at that stipulated in legislation. Where the nature of the work makes it difficult for a person to be fully aware of the proximity of the platform edge (e.g. overhead work), edge protection should be provided, regardless of the height of the working platform.

For a working platform 450mm or wider, the guard railing shall be no further than 100mm outside the platform edge. For a working platform less than 450mm in width, the guard railing shall be no further than 150mm outside the platform edge.

Materials shall not be stored on single-plant working platforms. For working platforms, other than single working platforms, concentrated loads shall not exceed the loads specified in the table below. 

Notes:

1. The major loads on a working platform should be placed near the supports. Other loads should be placed to give a uniform distribution on the working platform.

2. Tools not exceeding 10kg may be placed on single plank working platforms, provided that the working load limit of the plank is not exceeded when accompanied by workers and working materials.

3. Materials may be handled by workers on a single plank working platform provided that the working load limit of any plank is not exceeded.

10.14. Working at Height 

a) Working at heights 3m or more is high risk and requires a Hazard Assessment and Work Method Statements to be prepared as per the requirements of relevant State Government OH&S Regulations.

b) Platforms, scaffolds or any other work where a person could fall 2m must have handrails or other approved fall restraint systems in place.

c) Sub-contractors working at heights 2m or more must prepare a Hazard Analysis including Job Safety Analysis and Work Method Statements in their Safety Management Plan and provide them to the principal contractor for approval before commencing work on-site

d) Use of elevated work platform (EWP), Scissor or boom lift.

⦁ Check for overhead electrical hazards

⦁ Ensure the area is well-ventilated

⦁ Check equipment for serviceability; including warning devices

⦁ Check for obvious hazards in the area; form and level ground, overhead obstruction (live cables)

⦁ Ensure all removable operating devices (key control pads) are stored separately

10.15. Falling Object Protection 

a) Organise work schedules to prevent the need for workers to be below other work which could cause falling objects.

b) Use Site Specific Inductions to advise workers of No Go areas around scaffolds, rooves or other raised work areas.

c) Barriers and signage to prevent persons from entering an area may be required to prevent injury from falling objects. I.e. when tiling rooves.

d) Mesh barriers on scaffolding or physical barriers such as hoardings may be required if persons cannot be excluded from the risk area.

e) Toe boards are to be erected on scaffolds, floors or raised work areas where materials could be dislodged and create a hazard.

f) Enforce head protection requirements. I.e. hardhats.

RISK ASSESSMENT FOR TESTING AND COMMISSIONING OF CHILLED WATER PUMPS

HSE Documents Ensuring a chilled water system functions efficiently and reliably relies on the proper testing and commissioning of its pumps. This process verifies the pump's performance meets design specifications and identifies any potential issues before full operation. It typically involves pre-commissioning checks, operational testing, and performance monitoring. Pre-commissioning ensures correct installation, cleanliness, and proper rotation of pump components. 

Operational testing involves starting the pump with closed discharge valves, recording pressure readings as valves open, and monitoring for overheating vibration, and motor performance. Finally, performance is compared to pump curves to confirm flow and pressure meet design requirements. This systematic approach safeguards the chilled water system's integrity and optimizes its overall efficiency
