Pedestrian Walk Way Implementation ASAP
All Pedestrians (including banksmen accompanying equipments)
must wear high-visibility vests in all areas where trucks and other
vehicles (forklifts, cranes, etc.) maneuver.

These areas must be clearly illuminated, signaled / marked (floor


painting, Hard-barriers, signs, etc.).

Vehicle and pedestrian ways shall be physically separated with


Hard-barriers and be indicated with Pedestrian walkway Mandatory
signs ( Blue).

Use of mobile phones in RED zones / while walking not permitted.

Pedestrian Walk Way – Interference with moving Vehicles
The circulation of vehicles and pedestrians must be segregated by establishing restricted
areas, one way routes where possible, pedestrian crossing zones, traffic islands and
designated parking areas. All reflected in a plot plan and periodically reviewed.

The appropriate measures must be implemented in order to prevent collision between


pedestrians and vehicles at pedestrian crossings.

This may include, but shall not be limited to:


- Mirrors
- Signals & adequate Lighting
- Speed bumps before the crossing point

When it is not reasonably practical to implement a physical segregation, pedestrians must


maintain safety distance of at least 2 meters from moving/operating vehicles at all times.
Traffic controllers will be deployed with authority to stop moving vehicles.

All personal vehicles are not allowed in “RED” Zone.

Zone Demarcation Color coding
RED ZONE – Corresponds to High-risk area, where PPE is essential requisite. Area encompassing low,
medium and high-risk construction / fabrication/ Material handling / Commissioning
activities. High Risk activities recommended by EHS Council. Personal vehicles/ use of
mobile phones restricted.

GREEN ZONE – A low risk and non-PPE area, majorly used for rest by workmen having utilities of water,
toilets, electricity for charging mobile devices, provided air & water coolers, enclosed using
tent material and meant for relieve and relaxation by workmen. Mobile phone permitted.

BLUE ZONE – A very low risk non-PPE area, used majorly for training and hazard communication purposes.
Comprising of Notice boards, posters and Tv for hazard identification exercises.

WHY - Zone Demarcation & Access Control
These zones are established primarily to reduce the Hazard spread and minimize potential
exposure in an administrative controlled manner proportional to the specific risk.

Advantages:

✓ Pedestrian Safety assurance.

✓ Enhancing overall safety culture with Employer’s duty of care.

✓ Improving Physical security confidence & overall social Vigilance.

✓ Clear communication & Control of welfare facilities.

✓ Focused attention on High risk areas & serious injury Prevention.

Walk The talk for safety – Owner mindset

safety problems. stake holders for practice.

MOTIVTIONAL POSTERS WALK THE TALK


Little or no impact. Short term effect, at best. Action speak louder than words.
Signs are ignored within days of posting. Demonstrate commitment to safety through actions
