HARD RULES. NO EXCEPTIONS.

• [ ] Pre-visit hazard assessment done and signed
• [ ] PPE on before you enter the building
• [ ] Escorted at all times
• [ ] No entry into any pit, sump, vault or crawl space. Leaning in counts as entry

• [ ] Never open an electrical door, cover or panel

• [ ] Pre-1981: pipe lagging, sprayed fireproofing and asphalt or vinyl flooring are asbestos until proven otherwise (29 CFR 1910.1001(j)(2)). Do not touch. Ask for the survey
• [ ] Photo permission confirmed per space, not per building
• [ ] Record who controls codes and keys. Never the codes themselves
