It is important to remember contractors and that they should be included in the audit process. Regular contractors may be responsible for load & haul, drill & blast and other activities so involve them in the audit process, including any planning so that they can contribute their knowledge and understanding. For other contractors check that procedures for managing excavations and tips are in place, and that they are understood and effective. Together with a host of industry experts QNJAC has produced a self-audit form to help you identify weaknesses in the systems on site that could lead to serious injury or loss of life.
