Ritter Safety Responsibilities for Qualified Electrical Worker Audit
During the Qualified Electrical Worker Audit (QEW Audit), our representative from Ritter Safety undertakes several critical responsibilities to ensure a seamless and effective evaluation. Initially, they facilitate the entire audit, acting as a bridge between supervisors and employees to guarantee all involved parties are well-versed in their respective roles in the audit process.

A focal point of the QEW Audit revolves around the identification and management of electrical hazards. Our Ritter Safety representative ensures that the employee can accurately pinpoint these hazards. Following identification, they verify that the employee chooses the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) tailored to each specific hazard.

Lastly, they oversee the employee’s journey through every stage of the audit process, ensuring each task is completed comprehensively and with utmost accuracy.
Employer Responsibilities for Qualified Electrical Worker Audit
In the Qualified Electrical Worker Audit (QEW Audit), it is essential for employers to validate that employees have received the requisite electrical safety training. This training arms them with the capability to undertake comprehensive Risk Assessments, discern electrical perils, define the boundaries for shock and arc flash, and judiciously select the correct PPE and insulated tools. A routine inspection of equipment to identify any signs of wear, potential defects, or damages is indispensable.
Additionally, the audit mandates the presence of a qualified supervisor. This individual, backed by robust technical knowledge, plays a pivotal role in the audit’s facilitation. Their authority extends to verifying an employee’s adeptness in task execution, an intimate understanding of equipment nuances, and aptitude in determining and handling testing instruments. They must ensure these devices function optimally, understand their intricacies, detect any flaws, and be aware of their inherent limitations.
Employer Responsibilities

- perform a proper Risk Assessment procedure to identify any electrical hazards
- identify the approach boundaries for shock and the arc flash boundary
- select the proper PPE and insulated tools for shock and arc flash hazards
- inspect the equipment for potential defects or damage
- Provide a supervisor or other designated qualified person to assist with the facilitation of the audit. The supervisor must have sufficient technical knowledge and possess the authority to verify that the employee has:
