AUDITING THE CONFORMITY WITH LEGAL AND OTHER PROVISIONS IN TERMS OF OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH ANDSAFETY OF THE 400/220/110/20 kV MINTIA POWER SUBSTATION.

In order to ensure energy security the state must ensure access to electricity to all domestic and industrial consumers, which are made through power substations, which are very dangerous workplaces by the fact that the voltage are very high. For this reson role of Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) is to ensure secure workplaces in an ergonomic and healthy working environment for personnel. In many unfortunate cases, OHS activity is subordinate to production or service activity and risk assessments and audits are also made formally by non-specialized personnel, leading to undesirable events with an unstable effect, and the need for auditing with legal and other provisions is intended to verify compliance with OHS rules and principles and to limit or stop work accidents. This paper addresses the verification of OHS, by "INCDPM Bucharest method" - Auditing of conformity with legal and other provisions" - to an 400/220/110/20 kV power substation, for the purpose of verifying knowledge and conformity with legal and other provisions at the workplaces level and assessing the efficiency or failure of the OHS management system of the analyzed economic entity management, and after implementation it will serve as a tool to verify the functioning of the system. The auditing of the OHS shows that the power substation under consideration has an overall level of security close to maximum and a low overall risk level, which means that OHS rules are met and the auditing has had a positive effect.
