Self Inspection Process
A self-inspection is a walk-through of your areas by you or someone in your department with the objective of identifying any unsafe conditions. The inspection should cover every area that is occupied or used by members of your department on a regular basis. This includes but is not limited to offices, laboratories and common rooms.

There will be a new Lab and Shop Inspection form EACH quarter with questions on:
- General Safety
- Hazardous Materials and Waste
- Quarterly Topic - a new set of questions each quarter are an opportunity to review various safety issues in depth .
- Comments and Additional Findings - Use this section to follow up on items noted in your area by regulatory agencies during the past year.
All work areas should complete the appropriate Self-Inspection Checklist for the quarter by the due date. The completed form(s) are maintained by the department Health and Safety Contact (HSC).
A single summary form is returned to our office by the HSC stating that the process has been completed for the department.
Completed checklists and a record of the actions taken to correct identified unsafe conditions are kept on file by the department for three years (Santa Clara County and Cal/OSHA requirements).
