Review and issue a work permit

Prepare and review

Open the safety workspace and select the permitted request for the site. A safety manager links a resolved or closed assessment for the same site and records the review. Verify the controls and time window. A different eligible safety manager issues the permit after the required checks.

Start, suspend, or close

1. At the start, verify the current approved window, risk assessment and controls. Record actual start through the permit workflow.
2. If conditions change, suspend and record the reason. Before restart, repeat risk and control checks and verify that the permit window still applies.
3. At completion, record handback and close. Verify that history contains the reviewer, issuer, start/suspension decisions and final closure.

Troubleshoot a blocked action

Check for a different-site assessment, an assessment still open, missing control verification, an ineligible reviewer, or an expired window. Correct the underlying condition and follow the current approval path. See Safety event intake and investigation.
