When carrying out shutdown services for industrial plants or treatment facilities, safety must always come first. Our company is committed to ensuring all personnel follow strict safety training, Malaysian regulations, and international best practices before starting any shutdown or maintenance activities. Below is an overview of our safety preparation and compliance process.
a) Safety Classes Before Shutdown Service
Before work begins, every employee and contractor must attend a mandatory safety induction class. This training covers:
-
Hazard awareness during shutdown operations.
-
Safe handling of machinery, tools, and chemicals.
-
Emergency response procedures.
-
Roles and responsibilities of each worker.
By completing the safety class, workers are fully prepared to carry out tasks in a safe and professional manner.
b) Compliance with Safety Laws and Regulations
Our company strictly complies with all Occupational Safety and Health regulations in Malaysia. During shutdown service, we emphasize:
-
Following the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) 1994.
-
Ensuring compliance with Factories and Machinery Act (FMA) 1967.
-
Keeping proper documentation and safety checklists throughout the shutdown period.
Compliance is not just a legal requirement—it ensures the well-being of our workforce and protects our clients’ operations.
c) DOSH, DOE, and High-Risk Work Activities
We work closely with relevant Malaysian authorities:
-
DOSH (Department of Occupational Safety and Health): Ensuring all machinery inspections, certifications, and permits are valid.
-
DOE (Department of Environment): Complying with environmental safety standards during maintenance.
-
High-risk work compliance: Special precautions are taken for working at height, welding, confined spaces, and lifting operations. These activities are conducted only by certified and trained personnel.
d) Use of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)
Every worker is required to wear appropriate PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) based on the job scope, including:
-
Safety helmet, safety shoes, and high-visibility vest.
-
Welding masks, gloves, and fire-resistant clothing for welding activities.
-
Full body harness and lanyards for working at height.
-
Respirators and eye protection where necessary.
We ensure that all PPE meets the required standards and is inspected before use.
e) Emergency Gathering Point
In the event of an emergency, all personnel must proceed immediately to the designated assembly point. Safety marshals will conduct a headcount to ensure everyone is accounted for. This organized procedure minimizes risks and ensures quick response in critical situations.
Why Safety Matters in Shutdown Services
Safety is not just a policy—it is the foundation of our shutdown operations. By prioritizing safety classes, regulatory compliance, PPE, and emergency planning, we protect lives, reduce downtime, and deliver reliable results to our clients.
