QEHS/NCR Ref: OBS-IA202615-01
Date: 12/05/2026
CAR ID: CAR-2026-010
Document Number: FORM_CAR001 Rev 1 ID 01/09/2025
Process/Area/Department: Legal Compliance / Communication
Requirement/Clause No.(s): ISO 45001:2018 - Clause 7.4 / 6.1.3
Type: ☑ Internal Audit ☐ Client Audit ☐ Inspection ☐ Complaint ☐ Sub-contractor ☐ Certification Review
Classification: ☐ Nonconformity ☑ Observation ☐ Opportunity for Improvement
Details of Observation¶
Statement of Observation: Rolled forward from CAR-2025-021. The TBT Programme cascade is in place, with each brief carrying its relevant legal reference. Standalone one-page visual compliance summaries for high-traffic regulatory topics (NRSWA service strikes, COSHH chlorine handling, RIDDOR thresholds) would reinforce the cascade for operatives who arrive after a TBT.
Planned Actions¶
Containment Action(s), including correction, with supporting completion date(s):
- Produce 3 one-page visual compliance summaries for the yard notice board (30/09/2026)
Root Cause¶
Primary Cause: Legal cascade operates through TBTs; a standing visual reference for between-TBT reinforcement was never produced. Contributing Factors: Notice-board content not yet standardised.
Proposed Corrective Action¶
- Create 3 one-page visual summaries: NRSWA service strikes, COSHH chlorine, RIDDOR thresholds.
- Place on the yard notice board; refresh on legal change.
Verification¶
- [x] 3 one-page visual summaries on the notice board.
- [x] Each references the controlling regulation / policy.
Points noted¶
- Reuse the TBT legal references as the source content.
- Keep visual and short — these are reinforcement, not the primary cascade.
Feedback & Acknowledgments¶
Raised by the 2026 internal-audit cycle (IA202615). Owner and target agreed at the standing weekly Director / HSQE compliance call.
