Episode 18: Tool Safety Manual

In this week’s episode, Dr. Oscar Slotosch explores the importance of the Tool Safety Manual — an essential part of qualification documentation and the only resource the end user has to help them use a tool safely. Learn how tool safety manuals are created and how you can use them responsibly, but also what it is that makes a tool safety manual good. At the end of this episode, Oscar announces a special project: Validas’s online database of good tool qualification kits. To learn more about the documents used with a well-qualified tool, listen to our Episode 14: Qualification Documents, and if you would like to hear about the real-world effects of tool safety oversights, join us in Episode 39: Excel and COVID-19 Tool Safety.
