Adding safety hazards and precautions to PM schedules

Add hazards and precautions to PM schedules that inform your employees on how to use equipment safely when working in hazards that can cause bodily harm and alert them in advance of the precautions to take to protect themselves from the hazard. For example, you can add a precaution to turn equipment off and remove the power cord from the power outlet before performing repairs on electrical equipment.

If PMRVCTRL is set to YES, existing safety records can only be modified when the PM schedule Revision Status is Unfinished.

Select Work > WO Planning > PM Schedules.
Select the PM schedule for which to add safety precautions and hazards, and then click the Safety tab.
