Standard Operating Procedures for Safe Working

After getting a clear confirmation that there is nothing wrong, one may proceed to step up the production rate slowly till the rated capacity is reached and all operations are stabilised. Fine-tuning of the plant units may now commence till best performance levels are achieved. AU standard operating procedures and instructions for dos and don ts are to be obtained from original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and discussed with senior engineers. The plant shall be run thereafter as per instmctions. 

Checklists of important observations required for safe, pollution-free, and efficient operations of the plant which are to be made every half an hour, every two hours, and every four hours shall be clearly written down in standing instruction book. Instructions shall also be available for checking all safety devices while taking charge of the plant from previous shift and while handing over charge to next shift. 

Normally, no electrical interconnection provided for ensuring safety shall be bypassed. Any fault in these must be immediately attended.
