Whether you need a general permit to work or specific permits, make sure your permits are good

In construction and other hazardous industries, a permit to work is used to ensure that specific types of work receive the attention and assessment they require to be performed safely.

In order to mitigate and reduce the chances of incidents occurring from these types of activity, companies and workers use and approve permits to work.

Not completing and/or storing your permits properly can result in catastrophic consequences, for personnel and for companies.

The most important sections and form fields to have on your permit template no matter how you  choose to run your templates via digital forms, Word, Excel or PDF include:

  • The pre activity risk assessment
  • The instructions/plan for the operator/s and team conducting this type of activity, ideally with a checklist of sorts
  • Any important associated information (drawings, photos etc.)
  • Comments from the operator/s, team and supervisor about any specific potential problems
  • A signoff section for everyone to acknowledge the permit to work, so that work can begin
