Introduction
The fact that we often fail to learn from experience is commonplace. Time after time accidents occur
because well established safe procedures and practices have been ignored or forgotten. Investigation
will often reveal that the basic cause of an accident has been the steady deterioration of working
practices since a plant was installed. It is incredible how quickly a well-constructed plant with clear
procedures and safeguards can become unsafe without management or workers being aware. A short
cut in procedures becomes accepted practice; a small malfunction of equipment is overcome by the
operator and the new procedure adopted as standard. And so it goes on, until the inevitable accident
occurs and the manager cannot understand how he came to walk past the problem every day without
seeing the hazard.
It is because of this that all responsible management sees the need to promote systematic and regular
auditing of their safety procedures and practices.
It is the overall responsibility of management to ensure that operational related activities are
adequately controlled. The responsibility covers both the human and physical elements, as accidents
are often caused by failure to achieve control in these areas; accidents are not, as is often believed,
the result of straightforward failures of technology, but also result from social, organisational and
technical problems.
A major part of this responsibility is to make sure that personnel will not be exposed to hazards which
they are unaware of or are unable to control.
This implies high technical competence, but on its own it will not ensure a consistently safe place of
work. The behaviour of the human being in an advanced technological working place is also of
fundamental importance.
Hazards may cause accidents. One definition of hazards is that they are unsafe acts of persons,
unsafe mechanical conditions or unsafe environmental conditions.
A safety audit is aimed at the reduction of exposure to all of the aforementioned conditions as part of
an overall safety programme.
The adoption of this systematic approach has, in some companies, originated from their concern
generated by major accidents, or an internal realisation that safety standards may be falling, often
brought about by better accident reporting and investigation.
It therefore becomes possible to publish criteria and lead plant management, with specialist
assistance, into more objective analysis of their activity, with resulting improved standards becoming a
useful tool for reducing accidents.

2.1
Scope
These Safety Audit Guidelines have been prepared by operational experts in the Industrial Gases
Business and they not only explain how to set about introducing a comprehensive safety audit system,
but also provide audit checklists for a range of activities in the Industrial Gas Business.
This document gives general guidance information for the detection of unsafe conditions, prevention of
hazards and accidents.
The specific areas covered are:
- General site matters
- Industrial gas cylinder filling
- Cryogenic liquid bulk storage at a production site
- Industrial gas and liquid plant
AIGA 014/05
-
For each of these areas a questionnaire is provided so that a standard approach can be used opposite
each activity, no matter how simple or complex a site may be.
These questionnaires:
do not
include design
make recommendations
include local/national regulations
but do
must
be as exhaustive as possible
not constitute too large a document.
It should be realised that these guidelines do not incorporate all the requirements of local or national
legislation, which will have to be inserted in the document by the reader according to local conditions.
The reader should be aware that in order to enhance the overall standard of safety performance, it is
necessary to complement safety audits by safety inspections (see 5.2) and safety walks (see 5.3). As
these elements are not part of the scope of this document, they are only described in brief.
2.2
Purpose
The Guidelines are presented with the real hope that all AIGA member companies who have not done
so already, will introduce systems of safety audits, safety inspections and safety walks. Such action,
together with the development of a correct attitude towards safety, will surely improve the safety record
of individual companies - and the Industrial Gas Business as a whole.
It is intended that this document will guide those companies who have not carried out in-depth reviews
of their total operation, such that using the information contained, in the way of checklists,
questionnaires etc, it will enable them to carry out the necessary procedures.
For those who may have their own system, it will present a basis for comparison and may in certain
areas, identify improvements that can be made.

Safety audits are intended to promote, improve and then maintain good safety performance.
Safety audits (unlike accident statistics, which only record past accidents) are an instrument for the
direct prevention of accidents, as they immediately generate positive actions across the whole
business activity.
When accident levels have dropped to levels which are of the order of company, or IGC, targets (e.g.
10/12 accidents per million hours) as a result of the use of a good safety programme, then Safety
Audits are a positive means by which performance can be further improved.
They are a structured and effective (review of the total factory which emphasises the need for good
housekeeping and planned maintenance) way of preventing accidents and controlling safety hazards.
AIGA 014/05
4
The objective of the safety audit is to evaluate the effectiveness of the companys safety effort and
make recommendations which lead to a reduction in accidents and minimisation of loss potential.
Safety audits are an important part of a companys control system and these checks ensure that
deteriorating standards are detected. Examination of the defects exposed in this review results in
hazardous conditions and potential accidents being avoided.
Regular audits should be based on the premise that resources should be made available to identify
and eliminate hazards before accidents occur, rather than use the resource of manpower and
materials only after injuries and damage to equipment have resulted in human suffering, significant
monetary loss which, in certain circumstances, affect the profitability severely.
Mistaken belief that management and sites are operating satisfactorily within the requirements of
appropriate legislation/regulations and standards/codes of practice is eradicated, and the direct
contact with individual workers has as its aim the resultant change in attitude and commitment to the
use of safe working practices, which continual involvement and education generate.
The safety audits will monitor all activities performed on site, and in particular:
Safety audit practice subjects each area of a companys activity to a systematic critical examination
with the object of minimising human suffering and monetary loss. Every component of the total system
is included, e.g. management policy, attitudes training, features of the process, layout and construction
of the plant, operating procedures, emergency plans, personal protection standards, accident records,
etc. An audit, as in the fields of accountancy, aims to disclose the strengths, the weaknesses and the
main areas of vulnerability or risk, and is carried out by appropriately qualified personnel.
It is important to ensure that the attitude of all personnel to safety audit practice is positive. It may
need to be pointed out that the reason for the audit is to help the plant management to establish those
areas within the plant where additional effort is required to ensure safety at all times. The audit is not
there to find fault with the efforts of local manage. The safety audit is an aid to sound, safe, plant
management.
Audits will involve plant operatives and review training, work experience, knowledge of procedures,
emergency procedures and other plant operating instructions.
A formal report and action plan is subsequently prepared and monitored.
AIGA 014/05

It is an essential requirement of an audit system that it will originate, like any safety policy or safety
programme, with the policy-making executive because of the monetary implications, e.g.:
It is important that line management accepts the objectives and supports the activity; properly
assessing the audit findings and ensuring that agreed actions are carried out.
Safety Programmes embody three essential elements:
Safety Audits
Safety Inspections
Safety Walks.
See Appendix A for a Summary of Proposed Characteristics of Safety Audits, Safety Inspections and
Safety Walks.
6.1
Safety Audits
6.1.1 Preparation
In view of reaching the aims described, every safety audit should be carefully prepared.
Questionnaires should be established for each activity and plant by the safety audit team and be
approved by Company Management. Safety audit questionnaires will also include questions on
general organisation, management and training.
Previous audit reports must be studied prior to the next audit to ensure that all actions from the
previous audit either have been carried out satisfactorily or are included as an additional item on the
current audit report.
6.1.2 Frequency of Safety Audits
As safety audits are by nature in-depth assessments of the safety situation of an activity, a frequency
of one every three or four years seems to be appropriate.
The frequency will enable the audit team to better identify technical and personnel changes, evaluate
the effectiveness of training at all levels, review the application of codes of practice and recent
statutory regulations.
6.1.3 Safety Audit Team
Safety audits should be carried out at general management level and at each plant or site.
The audit team members should be carefully selected for their knowledge and experience in the field
of audit, from general management, plant management, and other safety specialists.
For example, at plant level, the team should consist of, as a minimum:
As safety audits are carried out at a number of levels in a factory, e.g. small department, followed by
operating and then general management level, it is essential that a team member at the lowest level is
4
AIGA 014/05
also incorporated in the next level team, and so on, so as to ensure a common approach, improved
ease of reporting and communication.
When safety audits are carried out at a Main Branch satellite works, it is recommended that one of the
Safety Audit Team who conducted the audit at the satellite works, participate in the Main Branch
Team.
The indications given for frequency, duration, team composition and areas of activity may be adjusted
according to plant size.
6.1.4 Safety Audit Report
Local management must be involved in the review of the findings of the audit team before the audit
team leaves site.
Following the audits, a report should be issued containing the following:
A description of all findings relative to items needing a proposal for remedial action.
A description of any defects detected on equipment and initial proposals for remedial actions.
The names and job titles of those people who are responsible for initiating remedial actions.
The need for any revision of operating instructions or company standards.
Agreed target dates for completion (which realistically allow sufficient time for thorough technical
assessment and consequent changes, if necessary).
Copies of the audit report shall be given to the local plant manager and to the company management,
who will take decisions and supervise follow-up actions agreed by the safety audit team.
6.1.5 Monitoring and Follow-up
Monitoring of approved safety audit conclusions and recommendations is an important activity to
ensure improvement of the safety level of a plant or company.
It is the responsibility of the Plant Manager to see that audit conclusions and recommendations are
implemented by the agreed target dates.
6.2
Safety Inspection
A safety inspection is a scheduled inspection of a plant area, conducted by the plant supervisor or
plant management member, one of the plant employees and a company safety officer.
Safety inspections will be carried out with a frequency of one year, and may last up to one or two days.
Safety inspections may cover the following subjects:
Housekeeping
Unsafe acts or conditions
It will use lists referring to specialised equipment and procedures according to activity.
The result of the safety inspection, provided by the checklists filled in by the visiting team, will be
handed over to the plant manager who will be responsible for monitoring all resultant actions and
follow-up.
6.3
Safety Walks
AIGA 014/05
Housekeeping
Visible unsafe acts and conditions.
The use of a simple aide memoire is of assistance in reminding those involved of the objectives. The
result of the safety walk will be recorded and reported to the plant manager who will decide on the
follow-up to be given.
The team conducting the safety walk should have received adequate training in observing unsafe acts
and conditions.
7
Questionnaires
The object of the questionnaires included in this document is to allow company management to check
that the necessary safety procedures have been established, and that they are followed, in order to
ensure all plant personnel are conforming to company practices, resulting in a totally safe operation.
These questionnaires do not include any questions relating to plant design, which is supposed to have
been suitably established so as to allow the operation of a safe and efficient business. However, the
questionnaires do include questions which establish that any modifications to plant and machinery
have been duly authorised. In addition, if aspects of poor design are noted, these should be reported
to line management for further specialist investigation.
The questionnaires contain numerous references to testing at regular or frequent intervals. These
intervals are usually incorporated in the planned maintenance system. In the event that the safety
audit team considers any of the company test intervals to be inappropriate, then these should be
referred back to specialist for reconsideration.
The questionnaires in this document, which have been compiled by Working Group Members,
following a study of their company practices, may need to be complemented/adapted to accommodate
equipment or procedures which differ from one company to another. However, to avoid rewording of
certain questions, a column Not Applicable has been provided and may be used.
The questionnaires incorporated in this document are presented as forms to as to allow immediate
use.
