Create a Permit from a Work Pack
Status:
Request →
Awaiting Validation
TO BE CONFIRMED — Entry point and full behaviour. A Work Pack permit is created from the Work Pack module, not from the PTW create menu (confirmed: the "+ New" menu shows only Permit to Work / Routine / Questionnaire). The exact navigation and the complete field/edit rules belong to the Work Pack module (module 6). Source needed: Work Pack swimlane / FDD Work Pack section / UAT capture.
Create a permit that is linked to a Work Pack, so that it is planned and issued within that pack.
When to use
Use this task when the work is organised under a Work Pack and the permit must be tied to it.
Before you start — check before launching the task
- You hold the Permit Requester role.
- The Work Pack exists and the permit needs to be attached to it.
Step-by-step
- From the Work Pack, create the linked permit. (exact steps — TO BE CONFIRMED)
- Complete the general information and risk assessment as for a new permit (see Create a New Permit to Work). While in Request, permit fields attached to a Work Pack are editable by the Permit Requester, the Operating Authority and the RSES (not the Permit Requester alone).
- Sign the request to submit the permit for validation. Note for later: the permit can only be issued once its Work Pack is in the Active state (see Issue a Permit).
Expected result
The permit moves from Request to Awaiting Validation, linked to its Work Pack. The next task is Validate a Permit.
Key Referentiel rules
- A permit to work is based on a risk analysis reflecting the actual work — being part of a Work Pack does not change this. (CR-GR-HSE-402, Req 3.2.1)
- Coordination of multiple permits in a zone and the related SIMOPS/co-activity risks must be taken into account. (CR-GR-HSE-402, Req 3.4.1)
- Reuse / packaging does not remove the need to check current conditions. (CR-GR-HSE-402, Req 3.2.1)
Tips & pitfalls
Tip — the Work Pack must be Active to issue. Plan the pack's state so the permit can be issued when needed.
Pitfall — assuming only the requester edits the permit. In a Work Pack, OA and RSES can also edit fields in Request; coordinate changes.
Common mistakes
| Mistake | Consequence |
|---|---|
| Trying to issue while the Work Pack is not Active | Issue blocked |
| Uncoordinated edits by PR/OA/RSES in Request | Conflicting changes; confusion |
