It is very difficult to implement a routine inspection system for newly produced units, unless penalties are used. The most common excuse is that there is too much work to carry out inspections; over time, this not only fails to establish the habit of conducting inspections on time but also poses a serious threat to the proper operation of the equipment. Let’s discuss this: “Even if you’re busy, you should carry out inspections on time; if you’re too busy to do so, wait until you have time.””
This mindset is unacceptable; inspections must be carried out when it’s time for them.
Conduct inspections on time – no excuses!
Inspections should be carried out on schedule; it is important to remember that the purpose of these inspections is to identify problems promptly as well as any signs of problems, and to address them. If there are no inspections, problems can only be addressed after they occur.
People these days are quite lazy and reluctant to take initiative in doing their work; they tend to delay things as much as possible. Ensuring that they carry out inspections voluntarily is indeed a complex issue that cannot be resolved simply by imposing fines.
Inspections should be carried out on time in accordance with the regulatory requirements! ! !
All our inspection points are equipped with tickers, so failures to conduct inspections on time or perfunctory inspections can be detected! Inspections are also a very important task; working means carrying out inspections and process operations – that’s what’s most crucial!
Sure, inspections must be carried out on time! When busy, you can assign someone else to conduct inspections. At the beginning, it is necessary to develop good *habits.
If there is no time to carry out inspections due to being too busy, and this happens frequently, then it’s necessary to find the reasons behind it. Is it due to a shortage of staff, poor skills or efficiency among employees, or issues with their work attitude? Don’t blame the employees outright; rather than focusing on them, efforts should first be made to optimize the work system and staffing arrangements. If it is indeed due to the employees, then the evaluation system needs to be revised and strictly enforced.

Previously, exemptions from such evaluations were allowed, but of course there had to be special and valid reasons for that, such as sudden power outages in the facilities, or strong winds of force 6 or higher, or stormy weather, which made it unsafe to conduct inspections at heights. The entire plant awards points to the top two and bottom two performers each month. But a few months ago, the permission for exemption from liability in the workshop was revoked; now an application is required to obtain such exemption. The key point is that we release a ranking of each unit’s inspection performance from the previous month at our monthly economic activity meetings, and the general manager often asks the units with lower rankings to give explanations – which is unbearable.
First, it is necessary to check whether there are any constraints in terms of hardware and systems that affect inspections. If it is truly due to deficiencies in hardware and systems that employees are asked to do this, it is somewhat unfair to them. If human factors fail to ensure proper inspections, strict management is necessary. Management and being managed are inherently contradictory; as long as managers carry out their duties in a reasonable and proper manner, they must do so based on principles. One should not tolerate seemingly reasonable excuses – over time, management will become meaningless!
