TYPE OF INSPECTION

Daily and monthly inspections are to be performed by a “competent person”, who is capable of identifying existing
and predictable hazards in the surroundings or working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous to
employees, and who has authorization to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them.
Quarterly and annual inspections are to be performed by a “qualified person” who, by possession of a recognized
degree, certificate, or professional standing, or who by extensive knowledge, training and experience, successfully
demonstrated the ability to solve/resolve problems relating to the subject matter, the work, or the project.
