OHS

  • See attached OHS eNews – July 2022 for this month’s OHS new and updated resources. Some highlights include:
    • Vehicles as work sites: It is an OHS requirement for vehicles being used for work purposes (i.e. being dispatched by employer to a contractor site) to be inspected before each use – that’s where RAE’s HSE HSE-230D(i) Vehicle Condition Report Form (Driver's Inspection) comes in.
      • Whether you’re driving a RAE truck or your personal vehicle, if you’re driving on RAE business you must perform a weekly inspection with a daily walkaround and indicate you have done so using the form.
    • Selecting respirators and masks
    • Emergency Response and Preparedness Planning
