1.1. Criteria for Evaluating Approved Inspection Authority

To advise occupational hygienists at platinum refineries on the
criteria for evaluating AIA applications by the Department of
Employment and Labour, it is important to note the legal
framework set out under the Occupational Health and Safety

as the Hazardous Chemical Substances (HCS) Regulations.

o The AIA should demonstrate specialised knowledge in
the specific industry (e.g., platinum refining) and have
experience dealing with industry-specific hazards like
dust, heavy metals, and chemical exposure.
o The authority must show familiarity with relevant
occupational exposure limits (OELs) and other legal
standards applicable to the industry.
3. Accreditation:
o The AIA must be accredited by a recognized body,
such as the South African National Accreditation
System (SANAS), in the relevant fields of
occupational hygiene and testing.
4. Compliance with Legal Requirements:
o The AIA must demonstrate compliance with all
regulatory standards, including providing proof of
adherence to the OHSA and specific regulations (e.g.,
HCS Regulations).
o It must also have a record of lawful conduct and no
history of violations of occupational health and safety
laws.
5. Technical Equipment and Facilities:
o The AIA must possess state-of-the-art equipment for
monitoring and testing workplace hazards, such as air
