Subject: Request for information (potencially dangerous equipment)
Importance: High
Dear colleagues!
The Ministry of Social Security and Labour of the Republic of Lithuania is
a state institution which make state policy on occupational safety and
health at work and permanently seeks to improve the legal regulation of
the potentially dangerous equipment in Lithuania.
It should be noted that the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on the
Supervision of Potentially Dangerous Equipment
(https://e-seimas.lrs.lt/portal/legalAct/lt/TAD/TAIS.27535/asr) regulates
the following categories of potentially dangerous equipment:
1. steam and water heating boilers;
2. pressure vessels (tanks);
3. pressure pipelines for dangerous substances, pressure steam pipelines
and hot water pipelines;
4. pressureless tanks for dangerous substances;
5. lifts;
6. hoists for lifting people and goods;
7. cableways;
8. escalators and moving walks for transporting people ;
9. lifting equipment (cranes);
10. motorized amusement equipment (attractions);
11. technological installations for burning gaseous fuels.
The Government of the Republic of Lithuania has appointed 3 ministries for
the administrative regulation of the mentioned categories of potentially
dangerous equipment – the Ministry of Social Security and Labor of the
Republic of Lithuania, the Ministry of Energy of the Republic of
Lithuania, the Ministry of Economy and Innovation of the Republic of
Lithuania.
The control of the implementation of the requirements for the supervision
of all categories of potentially dangerous equipment in Lithuania is
carried out by the State Labour Inspectorate of the Republic of Lithuania
under the Ministry of Social Security and Labour. It also performs the
functions of manager and administrator of the State Register of
Potentially Dangerous Equipment
(https://www.vdi.lt/Forms/Tema.aspx?Tema_ID=26&lang=lt).
Tests and inspections of the technical condition of potentially dangerous
equipment are carried out by accredited bodies
(https://www.vdi.lt/Forms/Tekstas1.aspx?Tekstai_ID=68). In Lithuania such
bodies are accredited by the National Accreditation Bureau
(https://nab.lrv.lt/en/).
More information about potentially dangerous equipment in Lithuania can be
found here:
https://socmin.lrv.lt/en/activities/labour-and-employment/technical-safety
/potentially-dangerous-equipment?lang=lt.
In this context, information about the regulatory and maintenance models
of potentially dangerous equipment in your countries is very important for
us.
We would be very grateful if you could provide by e-mail
(
[email protected];
[email protected]) (preferably by
September 12, 2022 or sooner if possible) the following information:
1. List of potentially dangerous equipment regulated in your country.
2. Law or other legislation governing potentially dangerous equipment (URL
link).
3. List of responsible state institutions (for state policy formation,
implementation, control, etc.) in the field of potentially dangerous
equipment.
4. Statistics of accidents (by categories light, serious, fatal) at work
related to potentially dangerous equipment (for example, since 2002
according to each category of potentially dangerous equipment).
5. Information about the presence of a common register of potentially
dangerous equipment (URL link).
6. Any other important relevant information, the disclosure of which would
better reflect the specificities and good practices of the legal
regulation and control model of potentially dangerous equipment in your
country.
If in your opinion these questions are within the competence of another
person, would you be so kind to forward this e-mail to the appropriate
person.
Thank you for cooperation!
