ELECTRICAL SAFETY AUDITS:
Our Scope & Approach
The key objective of the NFPA 70E Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace is to
reduce human exposure to the hazards of shock, arc flash, and arc blast while working on
or near exposed electrical conductors or circuit parts that are or can become energized. It
provides guidance to help companies establish a practical safe working area for employees
who are exposed to electrical hazards arising from the use of electricity in activities such as
installation, maintenance, and uninstallation of equipment.
 
Electrical equipment and electrical safety devices are constantly changing and improving.
The NFPA 70E Committee addresses these changes and updates the standard every 3
years as part of keeping up with current technology and safety concerns. Employers
need to keep their electrical safety program up-to-date, to address those changes,
and conduct on-going audits to verify compliance with the standard.   
 
Scope: The focus of the Electrical Safety Audit is in the following 5 Critical
Areas:
1. Electrical Safety Program
2. Safety Training Plan
3. Hazard Assessment & Mitigation
4. Job Safety Plan / Job Safety Briefings
5. Preventive Maintenance
 
Approach: The Electrical Safety Audit process is completed in (3) stages:
1. On-Site Information Collection
2. Development of Audit Report
3. Audit Report Review - Findings & Recommendations

IMPLEMENTING AN ELECTRICAL SAFETY AUDIT
PROGRAM
Creating a safe workplace is an ongoing process. At SEAM Group, we don’t leave you with
an abstract plan written in stone. Instead, our safety experts work to understand your
individual workplace, integrate your team in developing an improved safety program, and
then consult during and after implementation to smooth out any transition and account for
workplace changes. After all, your work doesn’t stand still – neither should your safety
partner.

OUR APPROACH TO CREATING YOUR ELECTRICAL SAFETY


PROGRAM

Program Review and Development


SEAM’s safety experts will gather information about your company’s operations to better
understand your working conditions and common tasks. We will review the current written
program, when applicable, and provide notes and comments on existing policies. From
there, a first draft of the written electrical safety program is created.

First Draft Discussion and Findings


SEAM’s safety team will communicate with your electrical and maintenance teams, via
phone conference, to discuss findings and details of the program review and first draft of the
written program. Based on feedback, revisions will be made to the first draft and then
returned to the client for review.

Final Draft Overview and Implementation Process


SEAM Group’s safety team will communicate with the client (those individuals responsible
for implementing and enforcing the program) to:

 Go through the “Qualified Person” process for better understanding


 Discuss how to get started with implementation of the program
 A question and answer period related to the new written electrical safety program

As your trusted safety partner, once your electrical safety program has been implemented,
SEAM Group is available for ongoing review and consultation. We succeed when you
succeed – safely.
