Download the FNP rules for conducting industrial safety examinations. Industrial safety examination

Industrial safety examination (ISA) is the process of assessing the compliance of an object with industrial safety requirements and standards. The latter in the industrial sector are described and regulated in paragraph 1, Article 13, 116 of the “Federal Law on Industrial Safety”.

The implementation of any work related to safety assessment at industrial enterprises has its own specific order and sequence of actions. Thus, the examination can be divided into several conditional stages.

1. Negotiation. At the beginning, the customer and representatives of the expert organization resolve issues regarding the entire upcoming process. The organization explains to the customer all the nuances of the verification, the customer receives information about exactly what documents he must provide. During the initial stage, a clear calendar plan is drawn up and the timing of the examination is specified. .

2. Preparation of the document database. The customer must provide in full all the necessary information, all technical documentation, without which it is impossible to carry out the work. Wherein:

• It is indicated which objects are subject to examination and all the necessary information about them is given;
• To conduct an examination, an organization must receive a certain set of documents (in each specific case, the package of documents may vary depending on the object that is subject to examination). This can be design and construction documentation, various kinds of instructions, technical regulations, etc.;
• If the customer has test reports, any certificates, calculations, these may also be necessary;
• Samples of equipment may be provided if necessary.

How long will it take?

This question is always asked by the customer. It can only be answered by studying the amount of work that will need to be done. In other words, the time that will need to be spent on industrial safety expertise is always determined by the degree of complexity of the order. But in any case, carrying out all the necessary actions does not take more than three months. The countdown begins from the day the customer provides the entire set of documents to begin work. Until the expert organization receives a complete set of documents, no work on conducting an industrial safety survey will be carried out.

3. Carrying out industrial safety examinations (industrial safety examinations): at this stage, experts (one or more) are appointed who will conduct the inspection. All information that was previously provided by the customer is subject to analysis. To what extent do all documents, measurements, calculations, etc. comply with all standards prescribed by law?

To check all the necessary parameters and ensure that all data complies with industrial safety conditions, experts can carry out the necessary tests, measurements, etc. according to the developed program for carrying out industrial safety surveys.

To carry out an industrial safety examination, specialists can be sent to the inspection site, and a commission can be created, which includes employees of the organization with the necessary qualifications. They are personally present on site:

• assess the conduct of the production process;
• monitor the actions of both the workforce and management;
• assess the condition of the premises and equipment located at the enterprise;
• check the presence of markings;
• pay attention to the technical and methodological documentation base (their presence or absence), to work instructions, etc.;
• check how accurately the reporting documentation is maintained.

After all the important nuances have been taken into account and verified, they are summarized, and the remaining points required to fully complete the industrial safety review are discussed with the customer.

4. Issuance of the document itself - the expert opinion. It is the main stage of the entire event. To begin with, the commission and experts conducting the examination, having summarized all the data received, draw up a draft conclusion. It is this document that the organization relies on to issue the main conclusion (positive or negative). The customer receives the designated project, gets acquainted with it, and can send his comments in response. 14 days are given for this (from the moment the customer receives the draft conclusion).

If after the examination a positive conclusion is drawn up and no violations were identified, then in this case the document lists those objects to which this conclusion applies. Also, the document may contain additional conditions for the operation of certain equipment.

If, after conducting an industrial safety inspection, violations are identified and experts draw up a conclusion that the object does not comply with existing requirements, then the customer receives documents indicating all the shortcomings and violations. They need to be eliminated. A positive conclusion is issued only after problems and violations have been corrected, after which a re-examination is carried out.

The document (examination conclusion), which is issued to the customer after an industrial safety examination, is signed by the head of the organization that conducted the inspection, and must also have the organization’s seal. The conclusion is stitched, the number of pages is indicated in it. In this form, the document is transferred to the customer.

5. Information about industrial safety must be entered into the register of Rostechnadzor (RTN). The customer himself is obliged to submit an application to the RTN authorities for inclusion in the register after receiving the conclusion. The application is submitted according to the address principle (to the territorial department of Rostechnadzor). The application is registered at the territorial authority, after which the information must be entered into the register within five working days. The conclusion is assigned a special designation, which is placed on the main (title) page and consists of several, more precisely, four, groups of symbols. Each group has its own meaning:

• First of all, the digital code of the territorial body in which the conclusion is entered into the register is entered;
• The second group of signs is the object of examination itself;
• The third is the number assigned to the conclusion (ordinal number);
• The last numbers are the year of entry into the register.

What is indicated on the form in the conclusion

1. Name of the examination report;
2. Information about the basis for the examination, information about the organization that carried out all the actions, about the experts and their competence to conduct such activities;
3. A list of those objects on which the examination was carried out and which are subject to the resulting conclusion;
4. Information about the customer;
5. The purpose of the examination is indicated;
6. Data on those documents that were provided for consideration by the customer are recorded;
7. Description of the object where the examination was carried out;
8. The result of the examination;
9. Conclusions made by the commission, as well as recommendations to the customer;
10. Appendices can be added to the main form, which will indicate a list of all documentation used, as well as test reports.

Possible results

After the expert commission carries out its work, the specialists draw up a report that reflects all the actions taken, research and their results. A project is drawn up that serves as the basis for the main conclusion. It can be both positive and negative. If all standards and norms are met at the facility, a positive conclusion is issued. It does not cover some part of the object, its workshop, zone, but refers to the entire object as a whole.

A negative conclusion serves as a signal to the customer that it is necessary to eliminate the deficiencies identified during the examination. After their elimination, a re-inspection should be carried out. The executing organization can give recommendations to the customer regarding the measures that should be taken to correct the situation and, in the future, obtain a positive conclusion.

Responsibility of examination organizations

Administrative and criminal liability is provided for issuing false reports. If such violations are detected, such documents are excluded from the register.

A conclusion of the EPB is considered deliberately false if:

• It was prepared without reason, i.e. without actually carrying out the necessary measures to study documents, conduct tests, etc.;
• A conclusion, the data of which does not reflect the real facts about the condition of those devices that were subjected to examination and do not agree in content with the materials that were provided to the experts.

To ensure the safe operation of the facility, a regulatory framework has been developed, certain standards, the violation of which can have serious consequences. Determining how well an object complies with all safety requirements is the purpose of conducting an industrial safety inspection.

To get a real assessment of the security situation at an enterprise, you should contact only those organizations that already have experience and have proven themselves in the market for providing such services. Only by working with professionals can you be sure of an objective procedure and a real assessment of industrial safety.

How to conduct an industrial safety examination of technical devices? What are the rules for conducting examination of hazardous production facilities? Why is an examination of design documentation needed?

Greetings, dear readers of the HeatherBeaver online magazine! Today I, Alla Prosyukova, will tell you about industrial safety expertise.

1. What is an industrial safety assessment and when might it be needed?

Independent expertise is in demand in various spheres of society, including in the field of industrial safety.

(EPB) is a confirmation of compliance of the object of examination with current industrial safety standards.

Industrial safety inspection is carried out in relation to all enterprises that contain production facilities and devices of any hazard class.

This kind of examination is aimed at protecting the interests of people and society as a whole from incidents at facilities classified as dangerous, as well as their consequences.

The objects of examination include: buildings, structures, equipment, technical devices used in hazardous enterprises.

The main cases when EPB may be required:

• There are no documents for the technical device:
• the technical passport does not indicate the service life of the object;
• the technical device was affected by external power loads not taken into account by the design parameters;
• repair work is carried out to change the structure of the object or replace the materials of its supporting structures:
• the facility is undergoing reconstruction or modernization;
• changes/additions are made to project documents;
• new construction is underway;
• at the request of supervisory authorities.

Depending on the type of hazardous object, the direction of work and its required volume within the framework of the industrial safety regulations are determined.

• checking the design documentation of a hazardous facility;
• checking technical devices (their availability and compliance with industrial safety standards);
• comprehensive inspection of a hazardous industrial facility.

The duration of the electronic security policy depends on its complexity: for simple objects – up to 30 days; objects of medium complexity – up to 60 days; complex objects – up to 90 days.
