assessment team & submit to Client for review & approval.
11.4 Procedure:
To identify & evaluate hazard involved in every activity during execution & to find appropriate
practical control measure to avoid harm to Personal & Property of the Contractor.
Risk Assessment (HIRA-Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment) is a part of planning stage &
It should be prepared well before start of every activity.
11.5 HIRA Preparation

 Standard risk assessment method as below will be followed.
 All undertake design and construction work for client construction Site, will refer to the safety
regulation under contract condition for guidance.
 The level of risk associated with identified hazards will be prior listed in accordance with their
probability, severity and classified under risk categories A, B, C and D. The objective shall to
be reducing the risk level to ‘D’.
 "Method of Risk Classification" outlines the method of risk classification and suggested risk
control measures which may be considered.
 This can be used to identify all hazards associated with the construction work being carried
out prior to classifying the risk before and after control measures have been identified using
the attached Hazard identification and Risk Assessment Sheet in Appendix - 1.
 The control measures which will be used to eliminate, reduce and manage risks will be
specified in Risk Assessments to enable cross checking to be carried out.

Every activity, sub-activity and tasks have its own hazards & risks.
While identifying the hazards and subsequent risk, following points shall be taken into
consideration, these are:
 Human behaviors, capabilities & other human factors. (Workplace layout, operator
information, physical work, work patterns also personnel competency)
 Infrastructure, equipment & materials at the workplace, whether provided by the
organization or others. (e.g. hazards caused by stored material, handling & placement of
materials, Hired vehicles)
 Changes or proposed changes in the organization, its activities, materials.
 Modifications to the safety management system, including temporary changes, and their
impacts on operations, processes, and activities.

manuals of plant and machinery and MSDS of the chemicals etc.…
 Records or reports of incidents
 Audit & inspection report, assessments and review
 Process review and improvement of activities in the workplace
 Information on best practices and typical hazards in similar organization
 Information on the facilities processes and activities of the organization plan, OEP etc.
 Nature, Timing, Scope of work and methodology should be considered.
11.9 Method of Risk Classification:

To identify level of risk associated to identified hazards, the hazards will be evaluated in accordance
with their probability & severity and classified in category indicated below,
Step 1 Hazard Identification
Identify the Hazards to health and safety to which persons are exposed. Objective is to develop a
proactive approach to Occupational Health and Safety Management System by anticipating and
managing the changes.
Step 2 Risk Rating (R) without control
For each hazard identified assess and estimate the Risk associated with it in relation to probability
(P) and severity (S) of occurrence, without considering the existing controls. Match the probability
index and severity index and calculate Risk Rating (PX S).
Refer –Table no.1 for probability; Table No-2 for severity

Step 3 Risk Rating R with control

Evaluate the risk rating (PX S) by considering controls in place. Focus on:
 Exposure to specific hazard
 Probability (P) of the occurrence of the hazard.
 Severity (S) consequences of injury or ill-health
Table 1
Probability of
Rating Description
Occurrence
Very Unlikely
(Improbable) Hazardous event or exposure may occur in exceptional
1 circumstances. (Very remote chance)
Hazardous event or exposure is unlikely to occur (Rare
Unlikely (Remote)
2 chance
Hazardous event or exposure has a significant chance to
Likely (Possible)
3 occur
4 Very Likely (Probable) Hazardous event or exposure is certain to occur
Table 2
Severity

1 Negligible Minor injuries such as small cuts and bruise, back to work
Injury/ill health with short term effect, not reportable - away from
2
Minor work for less than two days
Major injury or permanent disability or ill health with long term effect
3
Severe reportable;
4 Major Fatality, disasters.
Step4: RISK Calculation / Evaluation:
Probability(P) 1. Negligible 2. Minor 3. Severe 4. Major
1. Improbable L L M M
2. Remote L M M H
3. Possible M M H H
4. Probable M H H H
H: Hazard must be avoided (or the level of risk reduced significantly and reliable by controls).
M: Hazard should be avoided (or the level of risk reduced significantly and reliable by controls).
N: Risk to be controlled as far as reasonably practicable.
L: Risk is controlled as far as reasonably practicable.
---: No control measures necessary.

LEGAL: If activity come under legal implication (significant) than additional control measures is
to be taken and must be reviewed periodically.
T: Tolerable
NT: Non – Tolerable
Step 5: Implementation of Control Measure:

 Eliminating the hazard - Elimination of risk by avoiding a certain activity/ process or use of
alternatives; design improvements; change of process etc.
 Substitution - Reducing risk using a hazardous substance or chemical which is relatively less
risky; using low voltage electrical appliances
For example - Use hydraulic machine in wet condition instead of electrical power-driven
machine to avoid shock hazards.
 Engineering Controls
Redesign: Jobs and processes can be reworked to make them safer. For example, containers
can be made easier to hold and lift.
Isolation - If a hazard cannot be eliminated or replaced, it can sometimes be isolated, contained
or otherwise kept away from workers. For example, an insulated and air-conditioned control room
can protect operators from a toxic chemical and installing guarding on equipment or operating
machinery remotely.
Prevent or minimize exposure to the risk: If a hazard cannot be eliminated, there are many
control options that can be used alone, or in combination, to prevent or minimize exposure to
the risk.
For example - Remote control operation of the Boom Placer, anti-collision device of tower
crane etc....
 Administrative controls
Minimizing exposure to a risk using SOP (safe operating procedures), instructions or by
displaying signage’s/warning.
For example - Display warning signs or providing safety training.
Also, risk can be minimized by adequate supervision, training, job rotation, housekeeping,
repairs and maintenance schedule and hygiene at the work place.
 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Protective Clothing /Aprons, Safety Goggles,

Earplugs, hand-gloves, Appropriate Foot wear, fall protection equipment’s are some of the
PPEs used. Personal protective equipment (PPE) and clothing is used when other controls
measures are not feasible and where additional protection is needed. Workers must be trained
to use and maintain equipment properly. The employer and workers must understand the
limitations of the personal protective equipment. The employer is expected to require workers
to use their equipment whenever it is needed. Care must be taken to ensure that equipment is
working properly

For example - using respiratory protection to minimize exposure to inhalation of silica dust,
fine particles, cement dust etc.
Step 6: Submission of HIRA:

The Contractor will be responsible to submit site specific construction Risk assessment to
Client Site Management for review two weeks before commencement of the construction
activity
Client Site Management will review the completeness and content of the Risk Assessment and
will comment on it and submit the same to Client Site Head for approval. After approval
release the HIRA for the preparation of method statement and specific checklist.

approved the assembly.
• Bamboo scaffold should be strictly restricted at CLIENT site; it can be used in certain
situation with prior permission from site head after accessing the risk involved.
 All scaffolds shall be tagged in accordance with Section 7.1 of this work instruction.
Working Platform:
 All work platforms erected or altered will be constructed in such a manner that the work, for
which they were designed, may be performed safely.
 Every working platform from which a person is liable to fall more than 2 meters shall be:
1) Either closely boarded, planked or plated or guarded well.
2) At least 600mm wide if the platform is used by employee only and not for the deposit any
materials.
3) At least 900mm wide if the platform is used for the deposit of materials and work.
 Every metal tube scaffold exceeding 40 meters in height and every other scaffold exceeding '15
meters’ height shall be constructed in accordance with the design and drawings of a
Professional Engineer.
 Every MS board or plank which forms a part of a working platform shall:
1) Rest securely and evenly on its support and;
2) Rest on at least three supports, unless considering the distance between the supports and
the length & thickness of the board or plank, the conditions are such to prevent undue
sagging.
 Any working platform from which a person is liable to fall more than 2 m shall be provided with
suitable guard rails of adequate strength to a height of 1m (950mm to 1150mm) above the
platform or place and above any raised stand place on the platform.
 Where work at the face of a building is done from a working platform, the space between the
face of the building and the working platform shall be as small as practical and where
employees sit at the edge of the platform to work, the space shall not exceed 300mm.
 Each end of the platform unless cleated or otherwise restrained by hooks or equivalent means,
shall extend over its supports at least 150mm.

distance from the base of the ladder to the scaffold should be a quarter of the working height
(75 degrees), or four units up to each unit out from the base (4:1). It is permissible to use
ladders in the vertical position as long they are attached to each ledger and top rail of the
scaffold structure.
 All scaffolding ladders must extend a minimum of 1 meter (3 feet) above the platform deck, if
guardrails and handrails are not required, otherwise 0.3 meter (12 inches) above top rail to
provide a handhold during mounting and dismounting.
 Ladders must be placed on a firm footing to avoid slipping or tipping.
 Ladders must be of the correct length for the job and shall not be lashed or spliced together, or
placed on boxes or other loose packing to gain extra height.
 The responsible person shall inspect all ladders at least once in a month and provide an
inspection tag over it.

ladders shall not be used and should be marked "DO NOT USE.” If repairs cannot be made to
a damaged ladder, the ladder must be removed from service immediately.
 A person climbing a ladder shall face the ladder and use both hands for climbing. Tools and
materials shall not be carried up or down ladders. A hand line shall be used for raising or
lowering tools/materials.
 A person working on a ladder should not over-reach. The ladder should be re-positioned to a
more convenient site to allow safer access. It is essential that the position of the ladder is safe
and that it is secured at the top or held firmly at the base to prevent movement before the
ladder is ascended.
 Ladders should be removed as soon as a job is complete and stored in a horizontal position.
 Care should be taken when carrying ladders, especially at doorways or around corners.

be independent of the scaffold, and shall be protected from sharp edges and abrasion. Safe
points of anchorage include structural members of buildings, but do not include standpipes,
vents, other piping systems, electrical conduit, outrigger beams, or counterweights.
 When horizontal lifelines are used, they shall be secured to two or more structural members of
the scaffold, or they may be looped around both suspension and independent suspension lines
(on scaffolds so equipped) above the hoist and brake attached to the end of the scaffold.
Horizontal lifelines shall not be attached only to the suspension ropes.
 When lanyards are connected to horizontal lifelines or structural members on a single-point or
two-point adjustable suspension scaffold, the scaffold shall be equipped with additional
independent support lines and automatic locking devices capable of stopping the fall of the

scaffold in the event one or both suspension ropes fail. The independent support lines shall be
equal in number and strength to the suspension ropes.

1.0 Scaffold Tag Procedure:

 During erection or dismantling scaffolding, a red tag 'NOT SAFE TO USE" must be placed at
the access points to warn against employees' use of all scaffolds. Only scaffold erectors are
allowed on the scaffold now.
 After completion of the scaffold erection with placement of all required safe guard the red tag
should be replaced with a green tag "SAFE TO USE" to signify the scaffold is ready for use.
 Before use scaffold should be inspected by scaffolding supervisor, certify & sign the status of
tag and maintaining the scaffolding register at site with date of inspection and due date.
Work Methodology: Prior to authorizing erection of the scaffolding, the scaffolding design shall
be planned, and the work site inspected as to the soil characteristics, slope/grade of the ground

12.11 Plastering & Painting Safety
Plastering
General Requirement/Guideline:
In construction industry plaster works also have one of the highest risks of suffering from a manual
handling injury. For this, site should be plastering work on site requires using appropriate safety
equipment and work method statement / procedure that are attentively reviewed to ensure a
consistent approach to safety
 Site team should have plan and location for the storage / stacking of cement bags, stacking
of cement nags should be on a clean, dry, plane surface area and over the raised platform,
away from the moister area with proper access and egress and stack height shall not be
more than 10bags.
 Site team should ensure that the workers engaged for handling and storing of cement work
should be experienced, well trained and must have knowledge of MSDS of cement. Also
ensure the rotation of cement handler at every three months.
 Engaged workers shall cover their body to prevent spill of the mortar on their body, also
cement handlers should use appropriate nose mask to avoid inhaling of the cement dust.
 Plaster work should be carried out by trained workers and under the supervision of
competent person.
 All plastering workers should be trained in correct manual handling techniques.
Wheelbarrow and hoist to be used to move mortar, sand and cement around site. Allow two
people to lift the 50kgs bags or use 25 kg bags (1/2 bag) to be used where possible, and
lifted by one person or moved via wheelbarrows.
 Areas bellow the plastering work should be covered and provide barriers nearby.
 No work within 2 m of an open trench or shaft unless barricades are in place to prevent
falls.
 Ensure the mixing of mortar should be done in an appropriate pan or tray and precaution
should be taken to control the spillover of material and environment contamination.
 Has the mortar delivered as close as feasible to work place?
 Always use a trolley/wheelbarrow to move bags of cement rather than carrying them; never
try to carry multiple bags of cement at one time;
 Use both long and short handled shovels that best suit the task/person, e.g. use a long-
handled shovel if there is a large reach involved; and take regular breaks from continuous
shoveling.

Specific examples for plasterers include:
 Wherever practicably possible work maximum in between knee and shoulder height. This
can be facilitated by using equipment like aluminum frame hop-ups.
 Ensure and use appropriate working platforms, i.e. mobile scaffold or suitable elevated
working platform (EWP) must be used instead of a ladder when major work must be
accomplished.
 Ensure that scaffold erected for plaster work should be strong enough to carry the adequate
load; scaffold should have sufficient workplace and safe access/ egress for the movement
of man and materials.
 Ensure that the operator of EWP must be trained and competent.
 Do all the preparation at the ground level instead of at working platform/ floor/ bench.
 Provide appropriate PPE’s like hand gloves considering giving consideration how they
affect manual handling; ensure their uses.
 Whenever practicably possible do the rotations of jobs like interchange between execution
i.e. engaging plasters workers to patching, finish coat, excavation, reinforcement and
carpentry work etc.…
 Use mechanical lifting and handling equipment when and as required instead of manual
lifting and handling if there is any doubt that it can be done safely.

ANNEXURE E
Energy Isolation & Lockout-Tag out
SCOPE: -
This guideline applies to all facilities in which employees interact with energized machines &
equipment.
Overview: -
Lockout-Tag out is the OSHA compliant method of isolating machines or equipment’s from
energy sources to prevent personal injury. This procedure must be used when machines or

equipment’s are supplied with single or multiple power sources. This procedure will define the
Lockout-tag out program within corporate operations
Purpose: -
To provide a method for reducing the potential for injury to employee(s) or danger to equipment
due to unexpected or unplanned activation of equipment or energy during installation,
maintenance, repair, adjusting, unjamming, inspecting, processing or construction.
Even when “shut off”, powered equipment can be suddenly release stored, materials (e.g. liquids,
gases or powder in pumps, pipes etc.) or energy (e.g., hydraulic pneumatic pressure, steam
etc.). If such a release occurs when powered equipment is being serviced, employees can be
seriously injured. For this reason, repairs & servicing of powered equipment must be performed
after they are shut off, de-energized & locked out of services.
Each operation must regulate the repair & routine servicing of its powered equipment. Lockouts-
Tag outs are required when performing these operations.
Application: -
OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.147 requires the use of Lockout-Tag out control procedure on
machines & equipment when an employee must remove or by-pass a guard or any safety device
or when employee is required to place any part of their body into an equipment zone during
installation, maintenance, repair, unarming, adjusting, inspecting, operating, processing or
construction.
The standard allows an exception for minor tool changes, adjustments & other minor servicing
activities which takes Place during normal operation procedure, if they are routine, repetitive &
integral to the use of the equipment production: provided that the work is performed using
alternatives means of protection (see jams-alternative means of protection). In short, jams are
not automatically excluded Definitions: -
LOCKOUT is the placement of a locking device on energy-isolation device, which ASSURES that
the equipment being controlled cannot be operated until the locking device has been removed.
TAGOUT is the placement of a tagging device on an energy-isolating device, which indicates that
the energy isolating device & the equipment being controlled must not be operated until the
tagging device has been removed.
Machine specific Lockout-tag out procedures are set of instruction that indicate the required
tasks to achieve a zero-energy state for a specific piece of equipment. They are usually encased
in laminate & attached to the machine by a try wrap at the operator’ station. These instructions
should also be kept with the training information for each piece of equipment.

Authorization:
Employees whose work assignment includes activities such as activities such as installing,
maintaining, constructing, adjusting, inspecting or contractor following company established
guidelines.
A lockout or DANGER TAG may only be removed by the individual who installed that lockout or
tag. When either is found on equipment that equipment may not be used until the lockout or
DANGER TAG has been removed by the individual who installed that lockout or tag (This may
require that these individual returns to the plant to do so after they have left for the day)
If such work is performed by contractor, he/she must provide all required equipment’s &
personnel to complete the work. Operations contracting such work will inform contractors of
facility procedure & confirm that contractor’s procedures are compatible with in plant procedure.
Operations will also review hazards in the area & routinely inspect a contractor’s job site(s) to
ensure his/her work does not pose hazard to the either of employees or operations. If a hazard
exists, all work at that work site must cease until the hazard is eliminated or reduced to the
satisfaction of operation management.
Lockout-Tag out Rules: -
The LOCKOUT-TAG OUT Technique must be used for any work that requires the removal or
disabling of guards or interlock from equipment’s.
The single execution to this rule occurs when minor maintenance or servicing of equipment takes
place during normal production. This situation requires use of DANGER TAG only.
The breakdown has been categorized under the following categories:
1. Preventive maintenance-All maintenance defined as preventive maintenance as per Godrej

site specific classification.
2. Autonomous maintenance- Activities which are carried out when the equipment’s is in
running condition for e.g. Cleaning (outside the machine), Inspection, Lubrication (external),
Tightening (external)
3. Breakdown Maintenance- Any maintenance activity that is carried out due to unexpected
stoppage of equipment’s
4. Other Abnormalities- Maintenance activities that cannot be classified under the above 3
categories.
Machine type: -
1. CLASS A: Has appropriate local electrical isolators (near the machine, easily & quickly
accessible). These isolators can be locked only when they are in “off” conditions.

2. CLASS B: Does not have local isolators, but the main electrical supply panel of these
machines have isolation & locking (LOTO) provision.
3. CLASS C: Does not have local isolators, as well as their main electrical panel don’t have
isolation & locking (LOTO) provision.
NOTE: -
1. Each facility should move all its electrical driven machines/equipment to class “A”
equipment
2. Any new machine or equipment to be purchased, should have “A” class provision
Lockout-Tag out Techniques; Shutdown:
Workers assigned a task requiring Lockout-Tag out must follow this procedure:
ISOLATING ENERGY SOURCES: Shutdown
Preventive Maintenance:
1. Preventive maintenance to be planned to take into consideration all the relevant

departments.
2. Respective departments take the relevant LOTO devices based on the equipment specific
procedure.
3. Maintenance team to refer to the equipment specific procedure & isolate the required
energies.
4. After isolating the equipment, the keys are the to be put in the group LOTO box by the
respective teams or individuals
5. Production to verify the correctness of the LOTO & put a lock on the group LOTO box.
6. As per the preventive maintenance checklist & referring to the machine specific
procedure, relevant department to issue “safe work permit” based on the risk assessment
& control measures
7. After assuring no personnel are exposed, attempt activation of all normal operating
controls (e.g. push control buttons, etc.) to make certain the locked-out equipment does
not operate. Return all controls to the “NEUTRAL” or “OFF”
8. Carry out all maintenance activity.
9. After the maintenance activity is completed, maintenance team to inform the production
team for trials with due authorization
10. After discussion between maintenance & production department, LOTO devices are
temporarily removed & the system is energized for trials
11. After successful trials, respective department to close the sage work permit
12. Equipment can be taken in line for production
Breakdown Maintenance: -
13. Breakdown is noticed by the production

14. Production to inform maintenance (mechanical, electrical, instrumentation, civil etc.)
department.

15. Assessment of the breakdown to be done by the maintenance team.

16. Respective department takes relevant LOTO devise based on equipment specific
procedure
17. Maintenance team to refer to the equipment specific procedure & isolate the required
energies
18. After isolating the equipment, the keys are to be put in the group LOTO box by the
respective teams or individuals.
19. Production to verify the correctness of the LOTO & put a lock on the group LOTO box
20. Based on the type of breakdown as per the machine specific procedure production to
issue “safe work permit” based on risk assessment & control measures.
21. After assuring no personnel are exposed, attempt activation of all normal operating
controls (e.g. push control buttons) to certain the lock equipment does not operate.
Return all controls to the “NEUTRAL” or “OFF” position after testing
22. Carry out the maintenance activity.
23. After the maintenance activity is completed, maintenance team to inform the production
team for trials with due authorization.
24. After the discussion between maintenance team & production department, LOTO devices
are temporarily removed & the system is energised.
25. After successful trials productions department to close the safe work permit.
26. Equipment’s is taken in line for production.
AUTONOMOUS MAINTENANACE & OTHER ABNORMALITY: -
1. Follow the procedure mentioned in above in breakdown maintenance & refer the
equipment specific procedure.
NOTE: -Under supervision- No maintenance above mentioned activity can be undertaken with
machine in energized conditions.
For any deviation: -Available LOTO authorized employee to ensure the job is carried out in a safe
manner. (He may discuss with Local safety committee /Corporate Audit & Assurance; SHE
Coordinate team)
NOTE: Switch (es), valves (s), or other energy isolating device (s) must be disconnected so that
all energy sources(s) (electrical, mechanical, hydraulic etc.) are disconnected or isolated from the
equipment. Stored energy, such as that in capacitors, springs, elevated machine members,
rotating flywheels, hydraulic systems (e.g. air, gas, steam or water pressure) must also be
dissipated or restrained by methods such as grounding, re-positioning, locking, blocking, draining
that will effectively secure the release of the energy. (see isolation/blocking methods)
Restoring energy sources; Start up:
1. When the assigned repair or servicing task is completed & the machine is ready for
testing or returns to service, check the area surrounding the shut off unit to assure that no
one will be exposed to danger when the machine is started up. Replace all guards &
reactivate all interlocks

2. Notify all affected employee that locks/tags are going to be removed & the machine is
ready for operation.
3. When the area is clear, remove all locks & deactivate all the energy isolation devices to
restore energy & material to the machine. The same worker who installed the energy
isolating devices & installed the locks must be de-activated & remove them.
4. Perform any necessary testing of the restored machine to ensure it is in operable
condition.
5. Notify the management that work is completed & the area has been returned to
operational condition.
Group Lockout-Tag out
When a group of employees perform a task requiring lockout-tag out, group lockout-tag out
devices will be used. A single person will be designated to coordinate the work force & ensure
that each authorized employee affixes his personal lockout-tag out device to the group device.
This this same worker must be also responsible for insuring that all locks & tags are removed
when the task is completed.
Shift or Personnel changes of Lockouts: Some repair & servicing tasks require more than
single shift to complete. For these, lockouts/DANGER tags must remain in place for the entire
task.
To allow a shift change, the relieving shift worker must install his/her lock to the lockout device
before the original lock is removed.
Before the task is transferred, all work must cease until lockouts are being verified. The individual
or group designee must verify that new lockouts are properly installed & tagged, & locked out the
equipment will not operate.
After all lockouts have been verified, the task may be transferred to new worker or new crew.
New Equipment’s: -
When new equipment arrives an Energy Source Evaluation form should be filled out to determine
what energy sources need to be controlled.
Have a posted procedure completed.
Fill out the machine specific Lockout-Tag out procedure & insert it in the Machine Training
Instruction.
Modification of Existing Equipment: -
After any significant modification of machinery/equipment a new Energy State Assessment will
need to be performed/filled out to determine if any energy sources will need to be controlled.

Have a new machine specific procedure written up if needed. Determine if the machine specific
procedure needs to be revised. Attach new procedure at the operator panel& the machine
training instruction
Section 1 -Guidelines (continued)
Training:
Employee with authority & responsibility for performing maintenance, servicing or other
operations requiring exposure to hazardous energy sources must receive specific training in
recognition of these sources & use of adequate methods for their isolation.
Employee whose work assignment includes activities such as installing, maintaining,

constructing, adjusting, inspecting or operating equipment or process that are subject to lockout
procedures must be instructed in the purpose & use of this procedure.
All employees must be advised of the existence of this policy.
Absent Employee Device Removal:
Locks & tags are only to be removed by the individuals who installed them. On occasion,
however, an employee may be absent when devices are removed. The following conditions must
be met before the device can be removed:
I. Verify that the employee is not in the facility.

II. Make every effort to contact the employee to inform him/her that the device has been
removed.
III. A member of the employees’ management team must authorize the removal of
employees lock in writing.
IV. Ensure that the employee has knowledge that their lock has been removed before they
resume work at the facility.
Materials/Hardware: -
All locks & tags for performing Lockout-Tag out must be supplied by the company. Devices are to
be singularly identified to the employee applying the device by use of an LOTO tag filled out by
the employee, identifying themselves. Locks & tags cannot be used for purpose for other than
Lockout-Tag out & must be standardized in either colour, shape or size. Only one key per lock is
allowed, except that a spare key will be allowed for device removal if it is kept in a secured
location & under the control of the safety coordinator or designated representative for that area.
Inspection:
Each business unit must complete annual audit training, equipment, energy source evaluation,
devices & procedure relative to lockout-tag out energy control. Each coordinator/unit will submit
the result to corporate management. All deficiencies be noted & a date for correction affixed.

Annually, the safety coordinator for each business group must review the employees
understanding of the lockout-tag out procedures. If the coordinator has reason to believe that the
employee knowledge is inadequate, retraining must take place. This training must be certified &
shall include the name of the employee, name the trainer, the dates of training, and a test.
Enforcement:
Any employee who attempts to circumvent or defeat, the purpose use of a Lockout-Tagout
mechanism or knowingly operates equipment with these mechanisms disabled will
subject to the Positive Discipline procedure which would include termination / penalties
Enforcement of this policy will follow the review process for Positive Discipline as outlined in the
Human Resource Guidelines, up to & including termination /penalties.
JAMS-Alternative Means of Protection:
The intent of the OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.147 is to ensure that an employee does not to
put any part of their body able to be injured by a machine.
When a machine jam, some alternative means that could be used to release the jams are:
Wooden Dowels, Metal Hooks, Wooden Blocks etc.
Available LOTO authorized employee to ensure the job is carried out in safe manner. (He may
discuss with Local Safety Committee/Corporate Audit & Assurance, SHE Co-ordination team.)
