Several factors contribute to workplace safety in an organization:
- Task category
- Technical specifications of the system
- Organization within the maintenance department
- Employee skills and education
WCM is integrated into the Plant Maintenance (PM) component, allowing safety considerations to be incorporated alongside traditional tasks like material planning and scheduling. Not only must the tasks be planned, but safety measures for handling affected system parts must also be considered.
Implementation of WCM:
The use of the Work Clearance Management component is highly recommended for companies where specific safety regulations apply. These regulations may include laws concerning industrial health and safety standards and handling hazardous materials. The component is also recommended for the following operational requirements:
- Employees in plant maintenance work in environments with a high risk of accidents, such as those involving high voltage, radioactivity, and hazardous gases.
- Employees work under difficult conditions, such as limited space, poor visibility, heat, noise, or dust.
- Work-related illnesses typical in the industry require specialized health and safety measures.
- Work must be performed while the system is still operational.
- Functional safety devices are not available for all technical systems.
- Additional parts of the system must be protected from any impact.
This component is commonly used in industries such as chemical, oil, gas, and utilities.
