Safety Assessment

Owned by Matt Romeo
Last updated: 02 Mar 2025

Overview

A Safety Assessment is a required step for inspectors attending a Job to evaluate potential risks and classify the Job accordingly. This process ensures that all Interaction Cautions, related Jobs, and Persons of Interest (POIs) are reviewed before proceeding.

The Job Classification categories are:

  • Routine – No significant risks identified.

  • Moderate Concern – Some risks identified; extra caution needed.

  • High Vigilance – Significant risks; additional safety precautions required.

Inspectors must complete a Safety Assessment before attending a Job and update it if new risks are identified.

Where to Find the Safety Assessment

The Safety Assessment is accessed via the Quick Action on a Job record.
