NIOSH Safety Checklist Program for SchoolsChapter 3. Training Handouts--Checklist Instructions |
![]() |
Part 1: Completing the ChecklistsEQUIPMENT NEEDED: A tape measure and polarity tester (outlet tester) may be necessary to complete some of the checklists. Having a colleague or safety committee perform the inspection with you may be helpful. An objective outsider may be better at identifying some hazards.
Part 2: After Completing the ChecklistsIf you answered "yes" to a question, you are probably in compliance with the regulation at this time. Realize, however, that conditions are subject to change and regulations are subject to interpretation. If you answered "not applicable" to any questions, verify this with a colleague. If you answered "don't know" to one or more questions, seek advice from someone who can help you. If no one at your school knows the answer, contact someone from one of the organizations listed in Appendix A (Resource Agencies and Organizations). If you answered "no" to a question, confirm any identified problem with an expert (see Appendix A (Resource Agencies and Organizations) for information). A "no" does not mean an automatic violation. If you know how to fix the problem, write your recommendations in the space at the bottom of each checklist (use additional paper if necessary). Then bring your recommendations to the attention of the person or committee in charge of remediating problems in your school. KEEP COPIES OF EVERY CHECKLIST THAT YOU COMPLETE!
