Managers and HODs are responsible for ensuring that health and safety inspections take place at least ONCE A TERM - AT ANY TIME during that term (DUE DATES). The Occupational Health and Safety Act (1993) requires that health and safety in the workplace is monitored on a regular basis.

Health & Safety Inspection Reports:

• Health & Safety Reps should use the relevant Checklist (BELOW) to complete the workplace health and safety inspection report.
• They must consult other employees, who they represent.
• They must discuss the report with the Manager/HOD, who must countersign the report.
• They must keep a copy of the report in the workplace Health & Safety File (for at least 3 years).
• They must send a copy to the SHE Officer - by email to safety(at)ru.ac.za or hand in at quarterly health and safety sub-committee meeting

   (to reduce paper use, we strongly encourage electronic submission).
