Ask Foreman
Can you verify this before I keep going? I’m looking at: Not reporting a near-miss incident because it seems minor. What’s the approved correction for this job?
Do not
Do not hide, force, cover, or “make it work” if this affects safety, access, airflow, rated assemblies, supports, equipment, or inspection. Stop and verify the approved correction.
