Occupational Health & Safety Requirements for National Water Company Clients
Occupational health and safety requirements are a core part of qualification and internal classification files for many contractors and service providers working on water projects. A good file needs more than a safety policy or an ISO certificate: it requires documented procedures and actual examples from previous projects demonstrating implementation in practice.
Important Note
The following checklist supports practical preparation based on requirements commonly requested in National Water Company client files. Items may change or be added depending on the activity, project or updates from the relevant entity.
Occupational Health & Safety Requirements
1. HSE Management Organization Chart
Attach the company’s current health, safety and environmental management organization chart, showing the safety manager’s administrative and technical reporting lines and responsibilities within the business.
2. Safety Representatives’ CVs
Prepare CVs for occupational health and safety representatives showing qualifications and experience, and specify the number of safety representatives relative to workers on each project.
3. Approved Safety Policy
Attach the company’s occupational health and safety policy, approved and signed by the general manager or an authorized officer.
4. Occupational Health & Safety Management Regulations
Attach an official, documented copy of the occupational health and safety management regulations in line with the legal requirements applicable to the business’s activity.
5. Risk Assessments from Previous Work
Prepare three examples from previous work or projects listing risks and control measures. Varied examples are preferable.
6. Training & Awareness Procedures
Attach a documented procedure showing that all workers, including new workers, receive appropriate training, with a register of trained employees and the courses they completed.
7. Current ISO 45001 Certificate
Attach a valid, current ISO 45001 occupational health and safety management system certificate, ensuring the business details and certification scope are clear.
8. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Prepare a documented procedure for providing suitable personal protective equipment, with an example showing workers’ names, tasks and the equipment issued to them.
9. Permits for Hazardous Work
Attach a procedure explaining how permits for hazardous work are implemented, with three examples of actual safety permits from previous work.
10. Safety & Emergency Response Plan
Attach a safety and emergency response plan, with a practical example from a previous project showing how potential incidents or emergencies are addressed.
11. Reporting & Investigating Incidents and Injuries
Provide a documented procedure for reporting and investigating occupational incidents and injuries, with a sample or copy of a previous incident report where available and appropriate.
12. Three Years of Occupational Injury Statistics
Attach occupational injury statistics issued by the General Organization for Social Insurance for the previous three years, as requested by the relevant entity.
How to Organize the Safety File Before Uploading
Divide the file into clearly labeled folders or PDFs covering:
- Organization structure and policies.
- Safety team and CVs.
- Training and awareness.
- Risk assessments.
- Personal protective equipment.
- Work permits.
- Emergencies and incidents.
- Certificates and statistics.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- An unsigned or unapproved policy.
- An expired ISO 45001 certificate or unclear scope.
- Uploading blank templates instead of examples used on previous projects.
- Not relating the safety team to projects and worker numbers.
- Missing records demonstrating training or PPE issue.
- Procedures without clear dates or approvals.
