These core programs we argue include; inspection, investigation, training and education, standard operating procedures and job planning, disability management, The first two of these programs are discussed in this module are inspection and investigation. Inspection programs are typically arranged to ensure an examination is periodically completed on a planned basis with the intent to identify unsafe conditions in the workplace. Inspection activities are considered proactive because they are not usually driven by incidents or accidents.

Jhsc to perform inspections on a monthly basis and to report back to the jhsc any dangerous or hazardous situations.
