1.1 INTRODUCTION
Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) is a document created by project team and a critical part of any
project, as it enables to agree a set of quality targets with the client. This is to ensure that the
project is well executed with the highest level of quality and efficiency
The objective of this Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) is to facilitate the Quality Control and
implementation system is drawn up to ensure that the materials used, and the works carried out for
this project are in accordance with the specification and to established good engineering practice.
Implementation of Quality Assurance Plan through the quality parameters and guidelines, for both
technical inspection and quality control testing for each item of works is to preclude the
incorporation of faulty or substandard materials in the works, and to enable unsatisfactory
workmanship to be detected and rectified. Therefore, this shall fulfil the objective of Quality
Assurance Plan.

Inspections of site shall be carried out regularly, prior to the commencement of daily activit
while executing a new activity or during any time of the day by the site engineers/
supervisors,
safety officers and all other site management personnel. The high potential HSE deficiencies
shall be recorded and forwarded to the cm for immediate action.
Safety audit is a detailed and organized process. It could be time consuming and requires
money but it is more beneficial at the long run. It also helps improve the overall health and
safety performance and safety culture.

Height work permit is required to work at the height above 1.8 meters.
Electrical Permit
An electrical permit is required for any work on energized electrical system
Excavation Permit
Within the restricted area excavation authorization is required for all excavations regardless
of depth. In addition to that other appropriate work permits shall be obtained prior to start
of excavation.
The procedure:
Injured person or the first‐aider to report accident to Safety personnel giving all
relevant details.
Safety personnel to enter the detail in the accident book taking care to ascertain
exactly what occurred.
Injuries which require the first aider to refer the injured person to hospital or to their
doctor should be immediately notified to the Safety Supervisor on site and notified
to the company office by telephone.
In such cases the Safety Supervisor, accompanied by a representative of the
employees, must investigate all the circumstances of how the injury was sustained
and a company accident investigation report completed.
The findings of the investigation will be examined by the Safety Manager and the
chief executive with the objective of identifying measures to avoid a repetition.
These control measures will be introduced after consultation by the Safety Manager
on site.
Injuries or incidents at work leading to ill health which result in an absence from
work of more than 3 days must be notified to the Health and Safety Executive
immediately.
Injuries or incidents leading to ill health which are more serious than those
mentioned above (including injuries leading to death) must be notified to the Safety

Department immediately by the quickest possible means (i.e. by telephone). This call
must be followed by a written report within seven days.
The accident location should be barricaded off pending an investigation into the
circumstances of the incident, which led to the injuries. This investigation should
include statements from all witnesses and any plant or equipment involved in the
incident should not be touched nor moved until the investigation has been
concluded.
The investigators will discuss their findings with the chief executive to identify
measures needed to avoid a repetition. These measures will be introduced as soon

Hand Tools
Accidents arising out of hand tools can be attributed to any of the following reasons:
Using the wrong tools
Using the tools which are in poor condition
Using the tool in a wrong way or ignorance on part of user of particular tools
If the above three conditions are taken care of, we can eliminate all the hand tool
accidents.
Using the tool in a wrong way or ignorance on part of user of particular tools
- Wrench should always be placed on nuts with jaw opening facing the direction in which the wrench
is to be rotated. Wrench should not be pushed but be pulled.
- Chisels should be held with steady but relaxed grip. Chisels being stuck by others should be held by
tongs or other holding devices. Always chip away from yourself and protect others by screening.
Use goggles while chipping. While using screwdriver, the object should not be held in hand or
thigh.
- Blades of hack saw should always point forward and the entire length of the blade should be used in
the forward cutting stroke. The stroke should be steady and firm to avoid jumping of blade.

All equipment and materials arrive at site shall be inspected or otherwise verified as conforming to
specified requirement. Verification shall be accordance with documented procedures.
It is needed to describe how inspections and acceptance testing of instruments, equipment, and
their components affecting quality will be performed and documented. Inspections and tests shall be
performed accordance with quality plans, specification requirement, site inspection and test plans
and checklists to ensure the material and manufactured items supplied are constructed and installed
in accordance with specified requirements.
Moreover, it is needed to describe how deficiencies are to be resolved, when re-inspection will be
performed, and how the effectiveness of the corrective action shall be determined and documented.
There are needed to identify all tools, gauges, instruments, and other sampling, measuring, and test
equipment used for data generation or collection activities affecting quality that must be controlled
and calibrated. The relevant test and inspection data or reports shall be submitted.
Inspection and test reports shall be compiled at all stages and distributed in accordance with a
Project Distribution Plan to ensure that the Project Management Team is fully informed.
For works that require approval from the S.O, a joint inspection shall be carried out together with
the representatives of the S.O.
At all stages of the inspection, testing and commissioning process, records shall be established and
maintained to give clear evidence that equipment and materials have passed inspection and/or
tested in accordance with the defined acceptance criteria.
