Break News: THURSDAY 23rd APRIL 2020: SOUTH AFRICA REDUCES LOCKDOWN TO

‘LEVEL 4’ EFFECTIVE 1ST MAY

On Thursday 23rd April, President Cyril Ramaphosa advised the nation of the intended stand-down from the current ‘Level-5’ total lockdown to a more relieving ‘Level-4’. The majority of pre-cautionary measures will however remain. Of special note is the curtailing movement between the provinces and our national borders. This at least, brings welcome relief to essential engi-neering services such as the Lift Industry. LIASA’s concern is to meet the government regulated OHSAct LEPCR (Lift, Escalators and Passenger Conveyors Regulations) of September 2010.

TEI DONATES 9,000 N95 MASKS

TEI Group of NYC has do-nated 9,000 N95 masks to International Union of Eleva-tor Constructors, the compa-ny announced on April 21. This TEI and Local 1 effort was to protect those elevator technicians serving on the front lines during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The masks will essentially protect members working as part of the essential work-force who repair elevators and release entrapped pas-sengers on breakdowns.

THYSSENKRUPP PRO-VIDING FREE MAX PRE-MIUM TO HOSPITALS

Thyssenkrupp Elevator is providing its MAX Premium predictive-maintenance ser-vice free to select hospitals and medical customers im-pacted by COVID-19 in North America, the company announced on April 16.

The service is intended to help ensure the consistent and safe movement of pa-tients, medical personnel and supplies by allowing Thyssenkrupp technicians to

remotely monitor elevator performance and identify and address issues before they occur.

NEW COVID-19 HOSPITAL RUNNING

Schindler's Indonesian unit, Berca Schindler, helped trans-form part of the 2018 Asian Games athletes' village in cen-tral Jakarta into an emergency hospital to treat up to 22,000 COVID-19 patients.

One of the village's towers, Wisma Atlet Kemayoran, need-ed elevator refurbishments be-fore it could be used as a medi-cal facility.

Berca Schindler immediately assigned 20 field technicians to make the necessary repairs. The team, outfitted in the ap-propriate PPE (personal pro-tective equipment) and operat-ing under the guidelines of fre-quent handwashing and use of hand sanitizer, was able to complete the work in less than four days, the company said.

LIFTINSTITUUT OFFERS FREE WEBINARS ON

FUNCTIONAL SAFETY

"Functional safety" has be-come an important considera-tion in the international elevator industry, but many may not ful-ly understand what the term means. Liftinstituut is organiz-ing a series of four free webi-nars to shed light on the sub-ject.

The online gatherings will dis-cuss the most common mis-conceptions and failures of

functional safety, SIL and Pro-grammable Electronic Safety Systems (PESS).

PESS experts will introduce functional safety and its appli-cation to elevators. Each webi-nar lasts 1 hr and starts at 9 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time.

For more information and to register, visit our website. The topics are: • "What Is Functional Safe-

ty?" (April 28) • "What Is Safety Integrity

Level (SIL)?" (May 12) • "The Bigger Picture of

Functional Safety: The Interconnection of Stand-ards" (May 26)

• "What Is the FMEA (Failure Mode Effects Analysis)?" (June 9).

Failure to Communicate

Some years ago, I was briefly stuck in an elevator in China. Alone in the dark, it was frighten-ing, even to an elevator person. I found the emergency button and pushed it, trying to remain calm.

They answered quickly, but only a few Chinese words came through. I simply could not communicate! Luckily, I was on my way down to meet several men in the lobby. They were from the company responsible for the elevators in that hotel, so I was quickly rescued. But I still remember that helpless feeling when I could not make myself understood.

NEW 2020 AIA

APPROACH?

Is it not time that we

should now embark on a

new path of inspection

process where … we add

perceptive value to our

work, connecting better

with our customers, our

peers and in fact the whole

Lift Industry at large?

INSPECTION FUNNIES … Willem du Toit

Sometimes we AIA’s must deal with blatant disregard for the Regulations and Standards.

In the lift industry we should ALL by now know that the machinery room is for the ‘exclusive use of the lift machinery and associated equipment’.

The user of this machinery room has chosen to convert the room into a fully equipped workshop … yet the service mechanics do not say a word about it!

How many socket outlets are

enough?

This photo was taken at the top floor

of a grain silo. This power supply was

for the use of the mobile phone tech-

nicians when they carry out service

and repairs on the antennas and oth-

er associated electronics.

The photo is indicative that they at

least appear to be utilising 10 out of

the forty outlets available.

With the total ‘LOCKDOWN’ in South Africa due to Covid-19, a downside has been the preclusion of

carrying out the regulatory preventative maintenance and compliance inspections on lifts and esca-

lators. Our concern is the safety of public users and the lapsing of comprehensive reports.

Regulations guru Willem du Toit, stated this week that the regulated role players in the Lift Industry

will have to take this up with the DOL Regulator. Since the inception of AIA’s with the September

2010 OHSAct, the RLI’s have not had much of a role to play in the regulated inspection requirements.

For all the gazetted days of the lock down, we can automatically accept an extension, because the lockdown is Law and a law takes preference over any regulation. Lift inspections are not a “critical service” and therefore inspections or follow-up inspections should not take place during this period. Secondly, the lift service providers cannot in any event attend to the 60-day items during this period. He stated as a natural consequence, that SANAS assessors will have to take this into consideration when they do vertical assessments on AIA’s after the Lockdown.

LIASA Chairman Sanjeev Singh when approached, stated the fact that … We need to stress that LIASA does not have any mandate to represent AIA's, as this is definitely

neither within our articles of association, nor within our mandate as a recognised ECSA V.A. This has been re-iterated repetitively at numerous forums.

In any event, we cannot place LIASA RLI’s at risk regarding Comprehensive Reports, since the OHSAct amendments now define AIA’s as being responsible for carrying out the regulated in-spections.

Further, that LIASA cannot now be requested to get involved in any communications with the Regu-

lator regarding comprehensive report extension requests, simply because we have no locus

standi to do so. Only the two parties most affected, should get involved with any communica-

tions … LIASA as an interested party will, however, lend support to a unified request for a com-

prehensively defined extension.

These are the ‘Owners/Users’ who are by Law obliged to have the inspections performed, and their contracted service providers to whom they have contractually deputed their legal authority. Possibly AIA’s who in fact perform the actual inspections, could become a part of the initiative to motivate an extension to the DOL Regulator. SANAS who are responsible for accrediting the AIA’s, can obviously not be part of any such initiative.

The Educom Editorial Team, who receive and deal with lift industry communications around the world, on the strength of the above discussions, have included these discussions in this May issue of EDUCOM :

Firstly, to request the Owners/Users and their Facilities’ Managers of all the South African lift installations, to initiate such requests to the Regulator since the OHSAct holds them primarily responsible for the requisite legal compliance of these installations.

Secondly, that the multi-national and local independent lift engineering associations address such communication requirements to the Regulator simply because (according to the OHSAct LEPCR), they are contractually responsible for these installations. They more than anyone else, possess the critical registration and certification data of each lift and escalator that they are con-tracted to maintain according to the OHSAct regulations and its incorporated SANS standards.

Thirdly, that it is now time that every AIA becomes involved in a collective movement to obtain national recognition as an inspection service provider association, since the AIA’s role in lift and escalator inspection is defined by the OHSAct.

Finally, that the Regulator may already have commenced with such proposed legislation amend-ment to ensure legal compliance of every installation. It is undoubtedly their duty to keep the Lift Industry informed of such event. Perhaps the Regulator can advise Educom in this regard?

TRANSFER OF ACCREDITATION

AND FRANCHISING

What happens when the owner(s) of an approved inspection authority (AIA) for the inspection of Lifts, Escalators and Passenger Conveyors (LEPCs) decides to sell the business or to appoint a new management team to take over control of the AIA? Unfortunately, it will not be business as usual as far as the accredita-tion status of the AIA is concerned.

SANAS retains the sole responsibility for the granting, maintaining, extending, reducing, suspending, with-drawing of accreditation status. When accreditation is granted to an AIA, it is granted to the AIA compris-ing of identified and assessed personnel (including top management), equipment, management system documents (manual and procedures) etc.

When any of these variables change, the AIA shall inform SANAS immediately, since their accreditation status may be affected.

What are the changes that could lead to the suspension and /or withdrawal

of accreditation?

1. Accreditation status shall not be trans-ferred from one entity to another.

SANAS shall decline all applications for accreditation where the AIA sells, transfers or otherwise disposes of a material portion of its undertaking or changes

it’s a

its asset structure. This includes changes to the legal status of an AIA, for example, if a Close Corporation changes its CIPC Registration to a Proprietary Limited entity.

Note: Changes of a CAB’s asset structure in the normal course of its business is exempted from this requirement.

2. In accordance with the Terms and Condi tions of Accreditation (F147), and R03 “Nominated Representative and Signatories: Responsibilities, Qualifications and Approv al” an AIA shall inform SANAS in writing of any changes which may affect the AIA’s compliance with the Terms and Conditions and all relevant requirements, or which affect or may potentially affect the AIA’s capability or scope of accreditation, include ing but not limited to changes to:

i) Location

ii) legal, commercial, ownership or organisation-al status

iii) organisation, top management and key per-sonnel, including but not limited to nominat-ed representatives, technical signatories, quality managers, technical managers, all in respect of SANAS

iv) the scope of accreditation

v) resources, including equipment, facilities,

working environment or financial position

vi) capability to adequately service its scope of

Page 7

accreditation, due to, for example, acts of nature, industrial action

vii) material portion of its undertaking viii) asset structure ix) any matters that can affect the ability to comply with the accreditation requirements or x) major changes to policies or procedures that may affect the accreditation status.

Failure to notify SANAS of any such changes may result in the suspension of the AIA. SANAS may perform accreditation assessments if there are any changes as specified in paragraph 2 above. SANAS reserves the right to decide on the extent of the assessment as a result of any such chang-es. Where a change in ownership is requested, a formal application must be submitted by the AIA to the Accreditation Manager who will review the application to ascertain the extent of further actions required.

3. Franchising of Accredited CAB’s

Definition of Franchising: Franchising is the business practice whereby a franchisor allows a franchisee to use a certain trademark or trading name, and typically sup-plies support and training in exchange for a re-curring royalty fee. The trademark is typically the name under which the business operates. The franchisee is a separate legal entity to that of the franchisor, although this is not necessarily apparent to the customer who assumes that the legal entity is the holder of the trademark or name under which the organisation operates. As the franchisee does not own the trademark or name under which they operate, the franchisee is not explicitly identified as the entity that is legally responsible.

A practical example of franchising in the LEPC AIA environment is given below: An AIA allows a registered lift inspector (RLI) who does not own an AIA, to run his own non-accredi-ted business by giving the RLI permission to issue inspection reports (Annexures) using the AIAs name and displaying the accreditation symbol allocated by SANAS to the AIA. In return the RLI

pays the AIA a “royalty fee or a franchise fee.” This can be in the form of the RLI paying the AIA for each inspection report that is issued under the name of the AIA. The AIA has no contact with the user – the user is the RLI’s customer, not the AIA’s customer.

This should not be confused with the practice of employing contracted inspectors, which is an ISO/IEC 17020 allowed practice. A contracted inspector is an AIA employee who does not prac-tice on his/her own and is paid by the AIA. All communication between the contracted inspec-tor and a user goes through the official AIA chan-nels, i.e. the user is the customer of the AIA and not the customer of the contracted inspector. The user pays the AIA for the inspection services and not the contracted inspector directly. As soon as these roles are reversed, franchising comes into play.

AIA’s shall under no circumstances

franchise their accreditation activities to

RLIs or other non-accredited businesses.

Engineer Surveyors Section Bulletin Special Edition : Covid-19

In the first ‘Special Edition’, serious considera-

tion was requested to calculating the potential

impact of the circa 2,600 Surveyors (UK in-

spectors) moving around the country for at least

the immediate future and how that could affect

the spread of this disease, against the potential

impact of the inspections they should have car-

ried out during this period not being done. Hypo-

thetically, we are convinced that the former has

the potential to result in significantly higher fatal-

ity levels of surveyors than the latter.

Allianz urged SAFed to lobby for an … exten-

sion to be applied by the HSE (our DoL)

to the periodic inspections which we car-

ry out annually.

As has been said many times … “this is an un-

precedented situation we find ourselves in

and as such requires unprecedented levels

of leadership, understanding and support”.

SANAS COMUNICATION SANAS COMUNICATION -- 23rd April 2020 23rd April 2020

In this article, we shall interrogate items of concern that

are specifically related to the national lockdown and the

implications with respect to maintenance and inspection.

This article is compiled taking the points below into ac-

count:

There has not been any formal directive from the regulator to elabo-

rate on the regulatory function of maintenance and inspection during

the lockdown period.

There are numerous maintenance service providers that are operating

under the ambits of the permit issued by the CIPC.

There are numerous inspection service providers that are operating

under the ambits of the permit issued by the CIPC.

Despite being in possession of permits, the national lockdown regulations

do impose challenges to inspection and service providers alike. Limita-

tions on travel being the most significant. Further, all entities that are oper-

ational until Stage 1 of the lockdown is reached, are now required to have

a formal policy on operational procedures during the lockdown period.

Inspections

For AIA’s that are not operational during the lockdown ...

What happens to the scheduled 60 day follow up inspections?

What happens to inspections that were previously scheduled prior to the lockdown period?

What happens if a user (critical services provider) insists on an inspection?

What are the implications if there is a standing contract between the AIA and a user?

What happens in the event of directly- related non-conformances (60-ay follow up) during a SANAS assessment?

Will the comprehensive reports where the 60-day follow-up confirmation was not performed, be de-clared invalid and as such be reported to the regulator?

For AIA’s that are operational during the lockdown ...

What happens if you are required to perform an inspection across a provincial border?

What happens if you are due to perform an inspection (where you were contracted by the user) but the end user/tenant of a building etc. does not allow you access?

What happens if you were scheduled to perform an inspection, but the building is completely shut down?

What happens if you are permitted to perform an inspection, and the user insists that you sign an in-demnity agreement first?

What happens if you are permitted to perform an inspection, and the user insists that you provide a medical clearance?

What happens if you are permitted to perform an inspection, and the user insists that your PPE and/or mandatory operating procedures are unacceptable to them?

What happens if you are permitted to perform an inspection, and you insist that the user does not allow any persons in your proximity for the duration of the inspection?

When compiling the comprehensive report, will a missed service visit during the lockdown period be noted as a defect?

YOU BE THE JUDGE ... Sanjeev SinghYOU BE THE JUDGE ... Sanjeev Singh

Page 11

Maintenance

All maintenance contracts are valid during the lockdown period …

What happens when you are scheduled to perform a maintenance visit, but the user does

not allow you access?

What happens when you are scheduled to perform a maintenance visit, but the user does

not allow you access and requires you not to charge the monthly service fee?

What happens when you are scheduled to perform a maintenance visit, but the user is not

satisfied with your PPE or mandatory operating procedures?

What happens when you are scheduled to perform a maintenance visit, but the user can-

not guarantee social distancing?

What happens when you are scheduled to perform a maintenance visit, but the user in-

sists on a medical clearance for your field staff?

What happens when you are scheduled to perform a maintenance visit, but the user in-

sists on you signing and indemnity agreement first?

Is a user entitled to request “preservation service” in the event of a building being unoccu-

pied?

Is it permissible to extend the term of the maintenance contract for the same period where

access to the building was not permitted?

What happens when a serious defect is found during maintenance? Does the regulatory

prescript still apply?

While performing a maintenance visit it is discovered that the comprehensive report is not

valid, does the regulatory prescript still apply?

Perhaps the riskiest scenario is when maintenance visits are completed (and signed off) on units

where there are no valid comprehensive reports. What happens in the event of an accident or inci-

dent? While this scenario is possible regardless of the lockdown, it places the service provider in an

extremely vulnerable position. More so when one considers sub-regulations 7.3 and 7.4 …

7.3 If maintenance or an examination carried out in terms of sub regulation (1) or a test carried out in terms of sub regulation (2) shows that a weakness or defect exists whereby persons are endangered, the competent lift service provider shall report the weakness or defect immediately to the user and the provincial director, and no person shall be conveyed in or allowed to be conveyed in or on such lift, escalator or passen-ger conveyor or to enter such access goods only lift until such defect has been rectified to the satisfaction of an inspection service provider.

7.4 The user of a lift, escalator or passenger conveyor shall immediately take steps to stop the working thereof and to prevent the starting thereof if its use is or is likely to be dangerous to persons.

While there are obvious differences between “compliant” and “safe to operate or use”, a unit

left operational after a maintenance visit implies (by virtue of sub-regulation 7.3) that

the unit is safe to use.
