In a Non-visit case you should undertake a walkthrough of each of the employer’s/contractor’s systems relating to the risk or risks identified and record on the systems tested (see COG905085). You should:
- walkthrough/test an appropriate number of records to satisfy yourself that the system in operation enables the employer/contractor to meet his statutory obligations.
Where an employer fails to provide records to enable this to be undertaken you should consider:
- arranging a visit to the employer’s premises, or
- consider action in accordance with COG905170.
