General Health and Safety Inspection of the Facility

Regular workplace inspections are an important part of the overall occupational health and safety program and helps prevent injuries and illness. Through critical examination of the workplace, inspections identify and record hazards for corrective action. Hence, Kevron Consulting Limited (KCL) can help your organisation carry out a thorough inspection of its facilities. The purpose of the inspection is to:

• Listen to the concerns of workers and supervisors
• Gain further understanding of jobs and tasks
• Identify existing and potential hazards
• Determine underlying causes of hazards
• Monitor hazard controls (personal protective equipment, engineering controls, policies, procedures)
• Recommend corrective action

Our Approach

• Stage 1: To understanding and agree on the scope of the inspection.
• Stage 2: To carry out a desktop review of health and safety documentation, and inspection via observation of the entire workplace area including areas where no work is done regularly, such as parking lots, rest areas, office storage areas and any other areas to be agreed with management. Particular attention would be paid to items most likely to develop unsafe or unhealthy conditions because of some hazards such as poor housekeeping, stress, wear, impact, vibration, heat, corrosion, chemical reaction or misuse, manaual handling, vehicle movements, mechanical equipments, electricity,slips and trips, noise, workstation, lighting, faulty tools and equipments including working patterns that pose a risk etc.

Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) and Fire Safety Inspection

The purpose is to assist your organisation in identifying the preventative and protective measures required to comply with the law. Our approach is to work with your organisation in setting up a suitable and sufficient fire safety management strategy tailored towards meeting your legal and corporate social responsibilities as regard fire safety management.

In achieving this, the following stages of work would have to be followed:

• Stage 1: Kevron to carry out a fire risk assessment (FRA) of the building /facility or workplace
• Stage 2: Development of an FRA report
• Stage 3: Implementation of the control measures as contained in the report.
• Stage 4: Fire Safety Awareness Training for staff and Fire Warden Training for nominated staff member.

Please, note that the Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) is required for us to be able to make a decision on whether your existing arrangement is adequate and meets legislative requirements.

FRA is the process of identifying fire hazards and evaluating the level of risk arising from the hazards, taking into account any existing control measures already put in place by your organisation.
