Permit Request
海角直播 has a Permit Request system that requires approval from the Office of Risk Management before any hazardous work begins. Permit Requests apply to all 海角直播 faculty, staff, and service providers working under contract at 海角直播-owned or operated facilities.
海角直播 Permits are not a substitution for a service provider's contractually required safety program. Service providers are responsible for initiating, maintaining, and supervising all safety precautions and program in connection with their work. They are required to take reasonable precautions for the safety of persons performing the work and others who may be affected. They must also provide reasonable protection to prevent damage to property at the site and surrounding area, equipment, materials, tools, etc.
Permit Types
海角直播 has many confined spaces on campus, most of which do not require a permit. Contractors must adhere to all 海角直播 and OSHA policies and requirements. They are required to submit an online permit request for any Confined Space Entry(CSE) work. Contractors are responsible for informing their sub-contractors about their own safety procedures and 海角直播s. Contractors must provide their own confined space equipment and have the means to contact the rescue team when necessary. For any safety-related questions or concerns, contractors should contact the ORM through their project or district manager. Contractors will be informed of any known hazards or relevant past experiences related to the PRCS to be entered. After completing entry operations, the University's Project Manager will brief the contractor on the entry procedures used and any unknown or newly encountered hazards. Contractors must be familiar with 海角直播 Campus Emergency Services.
Before working in a confined space, a plan must be in place to summon the rescue team and notify emergency services. Rescue and emergency services must respond promptly, be properly trained, equipped, and proficient in the necessary rescue procedures. Please contact ORM if 海角直播 personnel require rescue services. Please be reminded that contractors are expected to organize and liaise with their respective rescue teams. Calling 911 does not replace having a standby rescue team.

Hot work involves any activity that produces flames or sparks, such as welding, cutting, brazing, burning, or other spark-producing operations. These activities can be hazardous and may lead to fires, injuries, or explosions.
Hot work permits cannot be requested online. To obtain a hot work permit, visit the Office of Risk Management located at 6300 North Central Expressway.
All operations that contain hazardous energy should be turned off, and physical locks should be used to eliminate the unexpected start of equipment. 海角直播 uses blue identification locks and digital tags to help with lock-out operations, and service providers are expected to use red locks.
No one is permitted to cut a lock-out device on campus unless the process is documented by a representative from the 海角直播 Office of Risk Management.

Erected scaffolding poses significant hazards to both workers and the general public. If not properly constructed, scaffolding can collapse, cause objects to fall, or even become electrified. Additionally, poorly designed scaffolding can obstruct emergency exits or other critical life-safety devices.
To ensure safety, all erected scaffolding must be inspected daily and signed off by a competent person, even in areas accessible to the general public. Where walk-through passages are permitted, overhead protection must be installed.
