Hi All,
First off I would like to say happy Independence Day as I know most are out of the office celebrating today as we here in Canada were Friday...
But seriously, I was hit with a training lulu during our registration audit last week. Our system is integrated 3-ways (quality, environmental and safety) our registration is only 2-way (quality and environmental). Therefore the statement made by our registrar was only a statement and not a nonconformance because it is mainly directed at safety.
In reviewing training records it was identified that not all reading/sign-off records are completed in a timely manner. Because many of our documents also contain safety requirements it was said that if an injury occurred the training record could be used against us instead of for us in a court of law...
Eventually all records do get completed but with many employees on 4X4 rotations to cover 24/7 production it can take weeks for the trainer to track down all signatures and for the most part operators are aware of changes they just haven't signed-off.
Anyone else ever had to deal with the safety implecations of reading/sign-off and how have you overcome it? Is there a better way?
Thanks,
Karen-Dawn
