A permit-to-work (PTW) system ensures that formal validation and authority is given when hazardous work is to be undertaken. It ensures that all components of a safe system of work are established before high risk work commences, thereby controlling and reducing risk to individuals and the organization.
The permit to work is also a means of communication and control between site managers, site supervisors, contractors, and those carrying out the hazardous work. Because of this, effective permit-to-work training is crucial for working safely when involved in high-risk activities.
