- technical inspection of equipment which includes external and internal visual inspection, diagnostics, as well as testing of equipment for determining its technical condition, possibility of safe operation and further maintenance
The legal basis in the field of industrial safety in kazakhstan is the law of the republic of kazakhstan “on civil protection” no. 188-v 3pk dated april 11, 2014
In accordance with this law, hazardous technical devices, as well as technical devices, materials and technologies intended for use at hazardous production facilities, must pass an industrial safety examination in order to obtain a permit to use from the authorized state body.
In accordance with the law “On civil protection”, such technical devices, materials and technologies must be put into operation only after obtaining permit to use from the authorized body.
Industrial safety expertise is carried out by expert organizations that have the appropriate certificate for the right to carry out these works.
Hazardous production facilities that meet the criteria for classifying hazardous production facilities as declared are subject to mandatory Declaration of industrial safety.
Development of Declaration is carried out by an organization certified for the right to develop Declaration.
Industrial safety Declarations must be registered with the authorized body.
Registration of the Industrial safety Declaration is carried out on the basis of an expert opinion, which must be developed by an organization that has appropriate certificate.
In accordance with this law, enterprises are obliged to conduct technical inspections of hazardous technical devices, as well as technical devices used at hazardous production facilities periodically, before commissioning, as well as during operation.
- after installation before commissioning;
- periodically during operation of equipment;
- after reconstruction or repair of equipment with the use of welding or soldering of elements working under pressure;
- if the equipment has not been used for more than 12 months;
- if the equipment has been dismantled and installed in a new location;
- before applying a protective coating to the walls of the equipment;
- if such inspection is necessary at the discretion of the person responsible for supervision of technical condition and operation of equipment.
Technical inspection is carried out by specialized expert organizations that have a certificate for the right to carry out work on industrial safety and have appropriate resources (qualified certified personnel and appropriate control and measuring devices).
- Accepting applications with documents;
- Review of application and documents;
- Visual inspection of equipment;
- Non-destructive testing of equipment (diagnostics);
- Hydraulic testing of equipment;
- Registration of diagnostics and test results (acts, protocols, records in the passport);
- Issue of the results of technical inspection to the Customer.
The procedure for issuing permits to use technologies, technical devices and materials is defined by the Rules of the state service “Issuing permits to use technologies, technical devices, materials used at hazardous production facilities, hazardous technical devices”, approved by The Order of the Minister of industry and infrastructure development of the Republic of Kazakhstan No. 208 dated April 16, 2020.
Permit to use is issued by the authorized body on the basis of an expert opinion which is developed by a certified organization.
Permit to use is issued in the form of an electronic document on the website of the authorized body, from where the document can be downloaded and, if necessary, printed. The validity period of received permits is unlimited, i.e. the document does not require renewal or extension.
- submitting an application for industrial safety expertise to the relevant expert organization (together with the application necessary documents must be submitted in accordance with the approved list)
- submission of an application in the form of electronic document certified by an electronic digital signature (EDS), together with an electronic copy of expert opinion through the e-government web portal www.egov.kz, www.elicense.kz
Due to the fact that the application is submitted via a web portal, the applicant can only be a legal entity registered in the Republic of Kazakhstan.
According to the Rules for the provision of public services “Issuing permits to use technologies, technical devices, materials used at hazardous production facilities, hazardous technical devices”, approved by the Order of the Minister of industry and infrastructure development of the Republic of Kazakhstan No. 208 dated April 16, 2020, the term for reviewing the application and issuing a permit to use or refusal by the authorized body should not exceed 7 working days.
DECLARATION OF INDUSTRIAL SAFETY
Procedure and requirements for the development of Industrial safety Declaration are set out in the “Rules for the development of Industrial safety Declaration for hazardous production facility”, approved by order No. 341 of the Minister of investment and development of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated December 30, 2014.
Procedure for registration of industrial safety declarations is governed by the Standard of the state service “Registration of industrial safety declarations of hazardous production facility”, approved by the Order of the Minister of investment and development of the Republic of Kazakhstan No. 511 dated April 28, 2015.
The necessity to develop Declaration of industrial safety is governed by the “Rules governing the criteria for classifying hazardous production facilities to be declared” approved by Order of Minister of investments and development of Kazakhstan No. 341 dated 30 December 2014 and “Criteria for classifying hazardous production facilities to be declared” approved by the Resolution of the Government № 864 dated 31 July 2014.
To determine criteria for classifying hazardous production facility to the declared, operator of the dangerous object, based on the analysis of the design documentation, shall determine the maximum possible occupational hazards in industrial processes, in the case of which there is a possibility of destruction of industrial buildings, technological structures and (or) engineering devices, uncontrollable explosion and (or) release of hazardous substances.
Established hazardous production factors are evaluated based on the design values of the maximum amount of hazardous substances handled at hazardous production facility, and technological processes that are signs of hazardous production facilities.
