7.0 SAFETY & HEALTH INSPECTIONS

7.1 General Requirements

In addition to the hazard controls specified in this document, Project Activity Self-Assessment Checklists are
contained. Any site-specific requirements outlined in this Plan that are more stringent than those contained in
the Project-Activity Self-Assessment Checklists are to take precedence. The Project-Activity Self–Assessment
Checklists are based upon minimum regulatory compliance and some site-specific requirements may be more
stringent. The Prime & supplier shall use these checklists to assess the adequacy of site-specific safety
requirements and determine if employees will be safe. The objective of the self-assessment process is to
identify gaps in project safety performance, and prompt for corrective actions in addressing these gaps. The
self-assessment checklists, including documented corrective actions, shall be made part of the permanent
project records and maintained by the HSM. The self-assessment checklists will also be used by the HSM and
SSHO's in evaluating the Prime & suppliers’ compliance on site. If hazardous conditions exist or are apparent
during the self-assessment, immediately notify the employees in the area and do not continue work in that
area. If an imminent danger situation exists, that which is immediately life threatening or would cause

serious injury, immediately stop work and warn the contractor employee(s) in danger and notify the contractor
safety representative and report it to the HSM. Self-assessment checklists should be completed and permit-to-
work reviewed prior to exposure of the activities outlined below. Self-assessments shall be completed prior to
subjecting personnel to hazardous operations for any reason. Follow-up self-assessments shall be conducted on
a weekly basis and more frequent if conditions warrant. The following list of hazardous activities is those most
commonly found on construction sites. The HSM is responsible for identifying site-specific hazardous activities
not included in this list and integrate methods for verifying compliance with established safe work
practices,regulations, and industry standards pertaining to those additional site-specific hazardous activities.

Aerial Lifts, Cranes, Hoists, and Rigging, Confined Space Entry, Electrical, Lock Out/Tag Out, Hand and Power
Tools, Scaffolds, Steel Erection, Stairways and Ladders, Welding and Cutting.

15
7.2 Conduct of Inspections

7.2.1 Personnel Authorized to Conduct inspections

Supervisors on-site are authorized to perform informal inspections of any project activity and make corrections
as required. If anyone witness’s an unsafe act or what they believe to be an unsafe act they are obligated to
intercede and prevent the act from occurring. Once they have accomplished that, they will immediately notify
the SSHO or HSM who will conduct a formal review of the actions. The following individuals are authorized to
conduct formal Safety & Health Inspections on site:

Health & Safety Manager : ----------------

QA/QC Manager : ----------------

7.2.2 Observed Hazard Form

The HSM and SSHO’s will perform daily site safety inspections to verify that the project is conducted in a safe
manner. The HSM will keep a running log to track the health and safety observations. In addition to the HSM’s
running log, hazards that are discovered by the HSM will be documented on the Observed Hazard Form.

7.2.3 Self Assessment Checklists

The HSM and SSHO’s will be responsible for conducting formal inspections of the work site(s) weekly. These
inspections will focus on activities covered by Self Assessment Checklists, but can be expanded to cover other
aspects of Health & Safety on the work site(s). The Self Assessment Checklists will be used as a guide to
determine compliance with recognized health & safety standards. There are 4 entries which can be made on
the check lists:

YES- In compliance

NO- Not in compliance

N/A (Not Applicable to current operation)

N/O (Not observed during this period)

7.3 Deficiency Tracking System

7.3.1 Observed Hazard Forms

Observed hazard forms will be completed on site at the time of the observed hazard, or activity inspection.
Both good behaviors and questionable or unsafe behaviors will be annotated on the form and discussed with
the observed worker(s). Any unsafe behavior or acts observed will be documented in writing to the Prime &
supplier’s project manager for action. All observed hazard forms will become a permanent part of the project
files.

7.3.2 Self Assessment Checklists

Any item which is annotated with a “NO” must be explained on the last sheet of the checklist, and followed up
for corrective action. The last page of each checklist has a column for recording the date the deficiency was
corrected. These Self assessment checklists once completed and signed by the inspector, reviewed with the
applicable supervisor and/or employee and signed by the project manager will become a permanent record of
inspection and part of the project files.

7.3.3 Open Deficiencies

All self assessment checklists with open deficiencies or stop work orders will be the top priority for the HSM
each work day to ensure they are corrected, any training is accomplished or the situation corrected to close out
the deficiency. If the deficiency is not handled in a timely manner, the HSM will report the problem in writing to
the Sinerji Project Manager.

16
8.0 SAFETY & HEALTH EXPECTATIONS, INCENTIVE PROGRAM AND COMPLIANCE

8.1 Safe Work Policy

It is the policy of the Sinerji to perform work in the safest manner possible. Safety must never be compromised.
To fulfill the requirements of this policy, an organized and effective safety program must be carried out at each
location where work is performed. The Sinerji believes that all injuries are preventable, and we are dedicated
to the goal of a safe work environment. To achieve this goal, every employee on the project must assume
responsibility for safety. Every employee is empowered to:

Conduct their work in a safe manner,

Stop work immediately to correct any unsafe condition that is encountered,

Take corrective actions so that work may proceed in a safe manner,

Safety, occupational health, and environmental protection will not be sacrificed for production. These elements
are integrated into quality control, cost reduction, and job performance, and are crucial to our success.

8.2 Health and Safety Commitment

The Sinerji has embraced a philosophy for health and safety excellence. The primary driving force behind this
commitment to health and safety is simple: employees are the Sinerji’s most significant asset and the Sinerji
management values their safety, health, and welfare. Also, top management believes that all injuries are
preventable. The Sinerji’s safety culture empowers employees at all levels to accept ownership for safety and
take whatever actions are necessary to eliminate injury. Our company is committed to world-class performance
in health and safety and also understands that world-class performance in health and safety is a critical
element in overall business success. The Sinerji is committed to the prevention of personal injuries,
occupational illnesses, and damage to equipment and property in all of its operations; to the protection of the
general public whenever it comes in contact with the Company’s work; and to the prevention of pollution and
environmental degradation. Company management, field supervisors, and employees plan safety into each
work task in order to prevent occupational injuries and illnesses. The ultimate success of Sinerji’s safety
program depends on the full cooperation and participation of each employee. The Sinerji will exceed
construction standards as we work to be a model in the construction industry. Sinerji management extends its
full commitment to health and safety excellence.

8.7 Supplier Default

If any supplier of Sinerji fails to comply with any of the requirements of the subcontract, Accident Prevention
Plan, or any and local safety laws and regulations, the Sinerji may issue a stop work order to the supplier.
Thereupon, the supplier shall immediately cease all work or portion of work that may be specifically designated
in the stop work order until the Sinerji has concluded in writing that the supplier has corrected its failure of
performance. No adjustments will be made to the supplier price or schedule as a result of any stop work orders
being issued by the Sinerji. A Stop Work Order will be given to the non-compliant supplier on the date of
deficiency. If the supplier fails to correct the deficiencies noted in the Stop Work Order within three working
days following the written notice from the Sinerji, the Sinerji may, without prejudice to any other rights or
remedies under the subcontract or at law or equity, suspend all further payments to supplier and/or terminate
supplier’s right to continue performance of the work.

8.8 Incentive Program

The Sinerji will encourage his suppliers to implement a safety incentive program for the Project that rewards
workers for exhibiting exemplary safety behaviors. Actions that qualify are those that go above and beyond
what is expected, like wearing your own safety equipment, seatbelt, etc. Actions that will be rewarded include
spotting and correcting a hazard, bringing a hazard to the attention of your foreman, telling your foreman
about an incident, coming up with a safer way to get the work done, stopping a crew member from doing
something unsafe, etc. The program will operate throughout the project, covering all craft workers. The
incentive program will be communicated to all employees during the project employee orientation and project
safety meetings.

8.9 Posting of Safety & Health Information

There will be a posting area, accessible by all workers on site, and in clear view for the posting of site specific
Safety & Health information. The posted information will be protected from the environment and kept updated
as project information changes.

9.0 ACCIDENT REPORTING

19
9.1 GeneraI lnformation

9.3 Reporting Requirements

Recordable injuries and illnesses and property damage accidents resulting in at least $2000,000 in damage,
Sinerji will conduct an accident investigation to establish the root cause(s) of the accident as per below to meet
requirements.

All employees shall immediately report any incident (this includes “near misses,” “accidents,” and “dangerous
occurrences” as defined in Section 9.2 above) in which they are involved or witness to the supervisor.

The supervisor, upon receiving an incident report, shall inform his immediate superior and the HSM.

The HSM shall immediately report the following information to the PM by radio, in person and/or e-mail:

Project Name/Site Manager :

Date and time of incident :

Description of incident :

Extent of know injuries/damage :

Level of medical attention :

Preliminary root cause/corrective actions:

The HSM shall complete and forward the initial hard copy Incident Report Form and Root Cause Analysis Form
to the Program within 24 hours and finalize those forms within 3 calendar days. Copies of report will be sent to
SINERGY main office and to TEKFEN

For major incidents, recordable injuries or illnesses or any accidents involving weight handling equipment, the
SSHO will be notified within 8 hours of the time of occurrence. The site and conditions will be preserved until
the Government investigation team arrives on site, and the government investigation has been completed.

The Sinerji team shall comply with all other applicable incident reporting requirements,according to emergency
respon.

9.4 Investigation Requirements

The supervisor shall proceed to the scene of the incident, take charge of the situation to prevent further injury
or damage, and arrange first aid or medical treatment for the injured.

The supervisor shall ensure that no equipment, material, or other evidence of the incident is removed unless
essential to prevent further injury or damage. The supervisor will also carry out an initial investigation of the
incident. The causes of loss and near loss incidents are similar, so by identifying and correcting

the causes of near loss incidents, future loss incidents may be prevented. The following is the Loss/Near Loss
Investigation Process:

Gather all relevant facts, focusing on fact-finding, not fault-finding

Answer the who, what, when, where, and how questions

Put facts together into a probable scenario

21
Determine incident root cause(s), which are basic causes on why an unsafe act/condition existed

Develop and implement solutions, matching all identified root causes with solutions

Communicate incident as a lesson learned to all project personnel

Follow up on implemented corrective active action to confirm solution is appropriate

The supervisor and/or HSM shall perform an incident investigation, as soon as practical after the incident, for
all Loss and Near Loss Incidents that occur on the project. Loss incident investigations shall be performed, in
accordance with the SOP HSE-111, Incident Reporting and Investigation... The following forms must be
completed:

Incident Report Form

Root Cause Analysis Form

Provide a description of the event and the sequence of events and actions that took place prior to the incident.
Start with the incident event and work backwards in time through all of the preceding events that directly
contributed to the accident. A preliminary Incident Report Form and Root Cause Analysis Form shall be
submitted to the Project Manager and Program CMT within 24 hours of incident occurrence. The final Incident
Report From and Root Cause Analysis shall be submitted after completing a comprehensive investigation of the
incident. The Project Manager and HSM shall evaluate the supervisor’s investigation report and ensure that the
report adequately addresses the facts and circumstances of the incident, the causes, and recommended
corrective actions. If the initial investigation is considered inadequate, the Project Manager shall appoint the
HSM to carry out further investigation.

For a major incident, the senior management shall convene a committee of inquiry to conduct a thorough
investigation into the incident. The team shall be provided with proper terms of reference to guide the scope of
their investigation. The team shall include the Project Manager, responsible Supervisor, HSM, and supplier if
applicable. The Program CMT reserves the right to participate in the investigation.

9.5 Analysis

The accident analysis is essential if all causes of the incident are to be identified for the correct remedial actions
to be taken to prevent the same and similar type of incident from recurring. The investigation team will consist
of the HSM, the responsible supervisor and Project Manager.

The Root Cause Analysis Form must be completed for all Loss Incidents and Near Loss Incidents. This form must
be submitted to the investigation team for review.

For minor losses or near losses, the information may be gathered by the supervisor or other personnel
immediately following the loss. Based on the complexity of the situation, this information may be all that is
necessary to enable the investigation team to analyze the loss, determine the root cause, and develop
recommendations. More complex situations may require the investigation team to revisit the loss site or re-
interview key witnesses to obtain answers to questions that may arise during the investigation process.

Photographs or videotapes of the scene and damaged equipment should be taken from all sides and from
various distances. This point is especially important when the investigation team will not be able to review the
loss scene.

The investigation team must use the Root Cause Analysis Flow Chart to assist in identifying the root cause(s) of
a loss. Any loss may have one or more root causes and contributing factors. The root cause is the primary or
immediate cause of the incident, while a contributing factor is a condition or event that contributes to the
incident happening, but is not the primary cause of the incident. Root causes and contributing factors that
relate to the person involved in the loss, his or her peers, or the supervisor should be referred to as “personal
factors.” Causes that pertain to the system within which the loss or injury occurred should be referred to as
“job factors.”

22
9.5.1 Personal Factors

Lack of skill or knowledge

Correct way takes more time and/or requires more effort

Short-cutting standard procedures is positively reinforced or tolerated

Person thinks there is no personal benefit to always doing the job according to standards

9.5.2 Job Factors

Lack of or inadequate operational procedures or work standards

Inadequate communication of expectations regarding procedures or standards

Inadequate tools or equipment

The root cause(s) could be any one or a combination of these seven possibilities or some other uncontrollable
factor. In the vast majority of losses, the root cause is very much related to one or more of these seven factors.
Uncontrollable factors should be used rarely and only after a thorough review eliminates all seven other
factors.

9.6 Corrective Actions

Include all corrective actions taken or those that should be taken to prevent recurrence of the incident. Include
the specific actions to be taken, the employer and personnel responsible for implementing the actions, and a
time frame for completion. Be sure the corrective actions address the causes.

Once the investigation report has been completed, the PM shall hold a review meeting to discuss the incident
and provide recommendations. The responsible supervisors shall be assigned to carry out the
recommendations, and shall inform the HSM upon successful implementation of all recommended actions.

9.7 Monthly Exposure Reports

The HSM will compile the information and prepare an exposure report which accurately reflects the employee-
hours worked each month for all site workers, both prime and supplier. This report will be prepared on the
form provided by the COR and attached to the monthly billing request submitted.

10.0 MEDICAL SUPPORT

10.1 On Site Medical Support

The contractor will have an English speaking person on site during working hours of the construction project.
This person will contact nearest Municipal Emergency Services for assistance . There will be a dedicated vehicle
and/or driver for transporting an injured worker to the nearest base clinic or hospital if necessary. This person
will have a way to communicate with MES.

10.2 Personnel Qualified in First Aid & CPR

There is no requirement for First aid or CPR trained personnel on site with the EMT being within few minutes of
the entire work area.!

10.3 First Aid Kits

There will be at least one Type III first aid kit available at the work site during hours of operation.

Additional First Aid kits will be in the vehicles of the PM, HSM, QA/ QC Manager.Contents of the kit will check
regularly.

23
10.4 Emergency Medical Treatment

The procedures listed below may also be applied to non-emergency incidents. Injuries and illnesses (including
overexposure to contaminants) must be reported to the H&S Manager. If there is a doubt about whether
medical treatment is necessary, or if the injured person is reluctant to accept medical treatment, contact the
HSM. During nonemergencies, follow these procedures as appropriate.

Get medical attention immediately by notifying the supervisor, SSC or HSM.

Prevent further injury

Initiate first aid and CPR where feasible

Make certain that the injured person is accompanied to the emergency room

The HSM will assume charge during a medical emergency until the ambulance arrives or until the injured
person is transported to the on base medical facility.

The HSM, PM or tranlsator must accompany the injured employee to the emergency room and to any follow-
up appointments until the injured is released to full duty.

Report incident as outlined in Incident Notification and Reporting section.

10.5 Emergency Medical Support

In the event of a loss of limb, impalement, serious accident/incident, injury or death from indirect fire onto the
project site or other unforeseen emergency, the local hospital will be contacted for assistance in stabilizing the
situation and personnel until such time they can be evacuated out of country for further medical assistance.

10.6 Emergency Medical Transport

This project does not have the means or capability to transport severely injured personnel.

11.0 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)

(Personal Protective Equipment and Respiratory Protection)

11.1 General Information

When actual or potential hazards exist and engineering controls or safe work practices cannot eliminate the
hazard, employees shall use PPE. The employer shall provide field personnel and visitors with the required
disposable and project-specific PPE and training.

Employees are responsible to:

Acquire the necessary PPE from the employer

Complete the appropriate training to learn the proper use and care

Use PPE as required in the project-specific written safety plan

Inspect PPE prior to use and maintain it in a clean and safe condition

Not modify, tamper with, or repair PPE beyond routine maintenance

Inform the employer of equipment that is damaged

24
Inform the employer of equipment that they believe does not adequately protect them from actual or potential
hazards

11.2 Hazard Assessment

The employer shall identify actual or potential hazards and the need for PPE. Two conditions typically dictate
the necessity for PPE: general hazards present in the work area, and hazards created by the tasks being
performed. Some work areas have actual or potential hazards that can be present at any time, thereby
potentially exposing any personnel working or walking through the area. Such areas should be posted as PPE
equired areas, or personnel should be informed of the requirements in an equivalent manner. In addition, the
actual task being performed may create a hazard and require personnel who perform this task to wear
appropriate PPE. The areas where these tasks are taking place may become PPE-required areas as long as that
specific task is taking place.

Personnel must comply with the PPE requirements.

TABLE 11-1

PPE Specifications.

Shut down operations and evacuate the immediate area.

Notify the HSM and PM by the fastest means available.

Account for personnel at the designated assembly area(s).

Assess the need for site evacuation, and evacuate the site as warranted.

Instead of implementing a work-area evacuation, note that small fires or spills posing minimal safety or health
hazards may be controlled.

12.2.1.3 Evacuation Procedures

Evacuation routes and assembly areas will be designated by TEKFEN ( the HSM) before work begins. Personnel
will assemble at the assembly area(s) upon hearing the emergency signal for evacuation.

The HSM and a “buddy” will remain on the site after the site has been evacuated (if safe) to inform TEKFEN and
local responders of the nature and location of the incident.

Each supervisor will account for their personnel at the assembly area, and report to the PM or QA Manager
that either all personnel are accounted for, or the number of personnel unaccounted for.

The HSM will write up the incident as soon as possible after it occurs and submit a report to TEKFEN and
Sinerji’s the Corporate Director of Health and Safety.

12.2.2 Spill Plans

It is not anticipated at this time to have any quantities of hazardous materials located on the OLYMPIC
STADIUM PROJECT any of the designated project sites. All fuel will be delivered to the equipment on a daily
basis as required. Small quantities of flammable liquids (fuel) may be on site for use in portable power
equipment.

In the event that any hazardous materials are spilled, the employees on site will take immediate action to
prevent further release as appropriate by turning off the source, up righting the container or other immediate
actions which can be safely performed.

Employees will only perform defensive actions to prevent further spread or release.

Defensive actions are actions which can be performed without actual contact with the released materials and
without the use of additional levels of PPE protection. These actions include, but are not limited to the
following:

Turning off a nozzle or valve.

Up righting a knocked over container.

Applying loose sorbent materials to a spill.

Placing sorbent booms or pads around the spilled materials to prevent further spread.

Employees will immediately notify the HSM or SSC, who will notify the HSM, as to the location of the spill and
any defensive measures taken to reduce its impact of further release.

27
Employees who have come into contact with any spilled hazardous materials will immediately seek emergency
decontamination. Emergency decontamination includes the following actions:

Removal of any contaminated clothing.

Immediate drenching of affected body areas with water.

Seek medical attention as required.

All spills will be reported to the GDA as required.

Spills of hazardous materials will be cleaned up, containerized and disposed of in compliance with the local
directives of Victory Base and information provided by the GDA.

12.2.3 Firefighting Plan

The decision on whether or not to try to extinguish a fire using available site personnel and equipment will be
made by the supervisor, SSC or HSM and based on whether the fire is small, large, involves explosives or
flammable liquids/gases.

12.2.3.1 Location of Fire Extinguishers

Fire extinguishers will be located around the project sites as required. These will be located in the following
places at a minimum;

In some of Sinerji vehicle on the project site.

On the outside of the office trailer.

Near areas where flammable materials are stored or in use within 50ft (15.24m).

Strategically around the site so the travel distance to any fire extinguisher is not greater than 50 ft (15.24m).

Locations where HOT Work permits are in place.

All fire extinguishers will be kept clearly visible, marked and placed where they are easily accessible.

12.2.3.2 Fire Extinguisher Training

The supplier will provide a list of employees who have been trained to utilize fire extinguishers to the HSM.
These employees should be at a minimum all supervisors, foreman, SSC designated personnel, equipment
operators and qualified welders & cutters.

All Sinerji leading personnel on site will be trained in the use of fire extinguishers.

12.2.3.3 Small Fires

A small fire is defined as a fire that can most likely be extinguished by site personnel using one or two 10-20 lb.
portable extinguishers. A small fire must also be free and clear of explosive materials. If a small fire occurs, the
supervisor or SSC will direct site personnel to perform the following, if safe to do so:

Evacuate unnecessary personnel to an upwind position;

Attempt to extinguish the fire using portable fire extinguishers or by smothering;

Remove any essential or flammable items from the path of the fire; and Call who will notify emergency
response services (fire, police, ambulance, hospital, etc.) as needed.

If a fire extinguisher is used, this must be immediately reported to the HSM. The fire extinguisher must be
immediately removed from service until it can be recharged.

28
Another fire extinguisher must be made available to the operating area. The area around where the fire
occurred must be watched for a minimum of 30 minutes after the fire has been extinguished to assure re-
ignition does not occur. If personnel are not working in the area, the SSC or HSM should check the area of the
fire periodically to assure reignition does not occur.

12.2.3.4 Large Fires

A large fire is defined as a small fire, which cannot be extinguished, or one which, due to its size, can not be
extinguished using one or two 10-20 lb. fire extinguishers. In the event that a large fire occurs and the fire does
not involve explosive materials, will direct personnel to conduct the following, if safe to do so:

Evacuate all non-essential personnel from the site to the identified assembly area, informing TEKFEN
managment immediately.

Attempt to control the fire to the extent possible; and

Remove any essential or flammable items from the path of the fire.

12.2.4 Posting of Emergency Telephone Numbers

All supervisors will have hand held radios or cell phones with which to contact EMERGENCY (AMBULANCE),
Sinerji HSM and the main office

12.3 Hazard Communication Program

Effective information and training on hazardous chemicals shall be given to project employees by their
employer at the time of initial assignment and/or whenever a new physical or health hazard the employees
have not been previously trained about is introduced into their work area.

All onsite hazardous chemicals shall have an accompanying MSDS available to employees for reference.

The supplier shall submit a copy of the MSDS sheet to the HSM for all onsite hazardous chemicals and when a
new hazardous chemical is introduced to the project.

The HSM will complete the Chemical Inventory Form to verify that training is provided on the hazards
associated with these chemicals and the control measures to be used to prevent exposure to personnel are
implemented.

The contractor shall provide documentation to the HSM to verify that they have provided adequate employee
training for the onsite hazardous chemicals.

All chemical containers shall be labeled with the identity of the chemical and with hazard warnings.

All hazardous materials will be properly stored. The HSM will give consideration to compatibility, quantity
limits, secondary containment, fire prevention, and environmental conditions.

12.4 Respiratory Protection Program

General

Respiratory protection is not anticipated to be required at this project site based on the current scope of work,
designs of the structures to be constructed and methods of construction to be used. If these parameters
change, or unforeseen circumstances dictate the use of respiratory protection, the following guidelines will be
adhered to.

12.4.1 Selection and Use of Respirators:

29
The Sinerji has the capability to use self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), Air Purifying Respirators (APR)
and HEPA Filter Face masks in the performance of normal operations where hazardous environments may be
encountered.

12.4.2 Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA)

All employees will be required to utilize SCBA protection under the following conditions and operations:

Oxygen Deficient Atmosphere:

Unknown Concentrations of hazardous substances or vapors

12.4.3 Air Purifying Respirators (APR)

All employees will be required to utilize APR respirators under the following conditions and operations.

Operations where the concentration of substance or vapor is known

Where the oxygen content is known to be above 19.5%

There is a filter available which is NIOSH/MSHA rated for the substance or material which poses the hazard

12.4.4 HEPA Filter masks

A HEPA filter face mask rated at P100 (HEPA) for protection from silica quartz, lead and carbon black which may
be present on the site.

12.4.5 Voluntary Wear

Sinerji has a regulatory compliant Voluntary Wear Program for employees and workers who feel that they may
want to wear a respirator, even when the situation and conditions do not require there use for protection. Any
employee or worker can approach their supervisor or HSM to have a respirator provided if so desired.

12.4.6 Filter Selection and Change Schedule

If during the course of the project, the situation arises which would require the use of air purifying respirators?
The HSM will contact Sinerji corporate Health & Safety to acquire the appropriate atmospheric monitoring
equipment to determine the type of respirator cartridges needed, and develop a cartridge change schedule
based upon the analytical data collected.

12.4.7 Fit Testing

All personnel required to wear either SCBA’s or APR’s during the project will be fit tested and perform fit
testing in accordance with Sinerji SOP. An operator seal check will be performed each time the respirator is
placed on the operators face for use.

12.5 Health Hazard Control Plan

The Health Hazard Control Program will be conducted by the use of the Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA) process.
This section outlines the process which will be utilized by the HSM on site to determine the presence of
hazardous environments or if hazardous or toxic agents could be released into the work environment.

12.5.1 General Information

Activity Hazard Analyses (AHA’s) shall be developed during the preparation stage for each definable work task.
An AHA is a procedure which integrates accepted health and safety principles and practices into a particular
operation. In an AHA, each basic step of the overall task is examined to identify potential hazards and to
determine the safest way to do the job.

Four basic stages in conducting an AHA are:

selecting the task to be analyzed,

30
breaking the task down into a sequence of steps,

identifying potential hazards,

determining preventive measures to overcome these hazards.

AHA’s are intended to be a follow-on from the Method Statement starting point and must be reviewed (and
modified as appropriate) by the entire work team prior to initially conducting the task.

The AHA process will identify previously undetected hazards and increase the job knowledge of those
participating. Safety and health awareness is raised, communication between workers and supervisors is
improved, and acceptance of safe work procedures is promoted. The completed AHA will be the basis for
regular contact between supervisors and workers on health and safety. It will serve as a teaching aid for initial
job training. The AHA will also be used as a standard for health and safety observations and it will assist in
completing comprehensive accident investigations.

All AHA’s will be documented, reviewed and signed by the HSM, Site Supervisor and all workers involved in the
task. All AHA’s will be maintained onsite by the HSM.

12.5.2 Tasks Requiring Activity Hazard Analyses

Activity Hazard Analyses are required for all definable work tasks. The following hazardous work operations are

who will be performing the task. With the assistance of those employees performing the task, the responsible
supervisor should:

Define the task and describe the work activity, including the tools, equipment, materials, and personnel to
perform the activity,

Identify the sequence of work or principle steps that are required to perform the activity,

Identify and analyze the chemical, physical, safety, and biological/environmental hazards posed by each step in
the activity,

Identify the main hazard control measures for each hazard identified—hazard control measures shall follow the
hierarchy of

1) implementing engineering control,

2) instituting safe work practices, and

31
3) providing PPE

List equipment, tools, and materials that will be used to perform the activity, along with the equipment/tool
inspection and training requirements for workers and supervisors

Ensure employees have training qualifications necessary to perform their assigned duties and job functions

Identify and summarize relevant SOPs, as part of the hazard control measure identified for each work task

Review the AHA form in a safety briefing with all project personnel who will be performing the task prior to
task performance (Ensure that their signature is on the AHA form)

Brief any new members to the crew prior to performing the task

Verify that the control measures recommended are implemented during execution of the work by assigning
responsibilities to the appropriate team members. AHA will prepared with reference to site
conditions:required sequencing of works and potencial hazards that have been identified and accompanied by
the relevant Risk Assesments which also show the control measures taken and must be submitted to TEKFEN
for review and approval.Only approved AHA’s can be communicated and implemented

The responsible supervisor must review all AHA’s with all project personnel who will be performing the task in
a safety briefing, prior to task performance. Any new crew members shall be briefed on the AHA prior to
performing the activity. In addition, the responsible supervisor shall oversee supplier implementation of this
AHA process for their work.

12.5.4 Activity Hazard Analysis Planning Tools

The following are planning tools that shall be utilized when preparing detailed AHA’s.

12.5.4.1 Activity Hazard Analysis Table

procedures must be reviewed to identify the applicable hazard control procedures in the AHA.

12.5.4.2 Subcontract or Activity Specific Safety Procedures

Supplier Activity-Specific Safety Procedures are not intended to be all-inclusive, but are provided as a tool to
facilitate development and review of safe work procedures. Suppliers are expected to address each outlined
criteria as part of their AHA planning.

12.5.4.3 Project-Activity Self-Assessment Checklists

Project Activity Self-Assessment Checklists have been provided as a method of verifying compliance with
established safe work practices, regulations, and industry standards pertaining to various activities. Project
activity self-assessments shall be performed at the start of specific hazardous work activity, then at least
weekly and at intervals appropriate for the nature of work site activities. Checklists provided are for Sinerji
employee use only. Each supplier shall provide their own checklists to be used to assess the adequacy of site-
specific safety requirements and determine if control measures identified in the AHA are adequate for each
work task.

12.5.5 Safety Pre-Task Planning

Safety Pre-Task Planning ensures that daily tasks are performed with safety integrated into the daily work
routine. SPTP requires that the team identify that day’s tasks to be performed; required equipment, tools and
materials to perform these tasks; the potential hazards posed; and required HS&E procedures.

An SPTP Form shall be completed for each work crew performing field activities. The SPTP shall be completed
before work begins each morning throughout the course of the project. The supervisor/foreman and their crew
complete the SPTP, and review it with each crew member during that day’s safety briefing following the
process below:

32
List all task personnel and the tasks that will be performed by the work crew for the workday

Review the overall task planning outlined in the AHA for this activity

List the tools and equipment required for that day’s tasks

Identify and check the potential health and safety hazards posed by that day’s tasks on the SPTP

Identify and check the hazard control procedures that will be employed to control the identified health and
safety hazards posed by that day’s tasks on the SPTP

Provide appropriate site-specific training to ensure employees can perform their job in a safe manner

The crew supervisor/foreman keeps the SPTP in the work area, revises it, and briefs the work crew when
additional tasks are to be performed or when unanticipated hazards are encountered that were not listed on
that day’s SPTP

The crew supervisor monitors work crew compliance with the hazard control measures listed in the SPTP

Each work crew’s daily SPTP shall be signed by the crew members and the supervisor/foreman. The
supervisor/foreman shall submit the SPTP to the HSM at the end of the workday for review

The HSM shall review each work crew’s daily SPTP, confirm that the potential health and safety hazards and
control measures are identified for the listed tasks in that day’s

SPTP, and maintain them as part of the onsite project files to document compliance with this process.

12.6 Confined Space Program

There are currently no areas or spaces which meet the criteria of a confined space. If during construction
activities, if any spaces present a potential for confined space, they will be evaluated by the HSM in compliance
with this plan. The following is a summary of the Confined Space Program.

12.6.1 Requirements Prior to Confined Space Entry:

Confined space entrants, attendants, and entry supervisors must complete sufficient training to acquire the
understanding, knowledge, and skills necessary for the safe performance of the assigned duties.

A Confined Space Entry Permit (CSEP), Alternative Procedure Certificate (APC), or Nonpermit Certificate (NPC)
must be completed and posted near the space entrance point for review (see Attachment 10 for examples).

Each confined space entrant and attendant must attend a pre-entry briefing conducted by the entry supervisor.

Each confined space entrant and attendant must verify that the entry supervisor has authorized entry and that
all permit or certificate requirements have been satisfied.

Only individuals listed on the Authorization/Accountability Log are permitted to enter the space.

Each confined space entrant and attendant must verify that atmospheric monitoring has been conducted at the
frequency specified on the permit or certificate and that monitoring results are documented and within
acceptable safe levels.

The HSM must be notified for all permit required confined space (PRCS) work.

12.6.2 Requirements During Confined Space Entry:

Communication must be maintained between the attendant and entrants to enable the attendant to monitor
entrant status.

Entrants must use equipment specified on the permit or certificate accordingly.

All permit or certificate requirements must be followed.

33
Entrants must evacuate the space upon orders of the attendant or entry supervisor, when an alarm is sounded,
or when a prohibited condition or dangerous situation is recognized.

Entrants and attendants must inform the entry supervisor of any hazards confronted or created in the space, or
any problems encountered during entry.

12.7 Hazardous Energy Control Program

Prior to working on any energized equipment or circuits, the designated “competent person” for lock out / tag
out will complete the Electrical Work Permit form located in this plan. If a lock out / tag out procedure is not
available for the work to be accomplished, or the equipment to be worked on, the competent person will
complete the Lock out / tag out worksheet. The following is a brief description of the Lock out / tag out
program which will be enforced on the project. Specific procedures will be developed and enforced by the
competent person for each individual work site and electrical permit issued.

Do not work on equipment when the unexpected operation could result in injury, unless lockout/tag out
procedures are implemented.

Employees working under a lockout/tag out procedure must complete sufficient training to acquire the
understanding, knowledge, and skills necessary for the safe performance of their assigned duties within the
plan.

When available from the facility or equipment owner, equipment-specific lockout/tag out procedures shall be
followed. When equipment-specific lockout/tag out procedures are not available, or when the existing
procedures are determined to be insufficient (such as not addressing all energy sources), then the authorized
employee shall be required to develop a procedure specific to the equipment being serviced. Sinerji authorized
employees shall complete Equipment- Specific Lockout/Tag out Procedure Development Form, to create an
equipmentspecific lockout/tag out procedure when required.

Standard lockout/tag out procedures include the following steps:

Notify all personnel in the affected area of the lockout/tag out

Shut down the equipment using normal operating controls Isolate all energy sources

Apply individual lock and tag to each energy isolating device

Relieve or restrain all potentially hazardous stored or residual energy

Verify that isolation and de-energization of the equipment has been accomplished

Once verified that the equipment is at the zero energy state, work may begin

All safe guards must be put back in place, all affected personnel notified that lockout/tag out has been
removed, and controls positioned in the safe mode prior to lockout/tag out removal

Do not remove another person’s lock or tag

12.8 Critical Lift Procedures

A critical lift is any lift in which the crane or derrick will be required to lift 75% or more of its rated capacity; that
require the load will be lifted, lifts made by more than one crane; or any lift in which the competent person or
crane operator believes should be considered critical.

All critical lifts will be required to have a critical lift plan developed by the supplier’s designated “competent
person” for cranes, rigging and hoisting operations.

The plan will include the following as a minimum:

Engineer:

• LEAD-BASED PAINT SURVEY

• ASBESTOS CONTAINING MATERIALS SURVEY

• ENGINEERING SURVEY

• Submit a written and signed DEMOLITION PLAN

LEAD-BASED PAINT SURVEY:

Structures erected prior to 1979 have a high likelihood of the presence of lead-based paint which by itself does
not necessarily pose a health risk to workers or inhabitants.

However, activities, such as demolition or renovation, including additions and structural modifications, do have
the potential of disturbing otherwise harmless lead-based paint and creating an unhealthy environment in the
form of lead-based paint dust, chips and fragments. Prior to any such activities, a lead-based paint survey shall
be conducted. A certified "Inspector" qualified to determine the presence and risk of exposure of workers to
lead-based paint shall be accomplished in accordance with 40 CFR745.

ASBESTOS SURVEY:

35
In accordance with 29 CFR 1926, an Asbestos Survey shall be accomplished by certified personnel qualified to
determine the presence of asbestos, and of any risk if employees are exposed to this material. A certified
“Building Inspector" qualified to determine the presence and risk of exposure of workers to asbestos shall be
accomplished in accordance with 40 CFR 763.

ENGINEERING SURVEY:

An engineering survey shall be conducted by Sinerji’s competent person of the structures to determine the
layout and condition necessary to avoid an unplanned collapse of the structure, and to find any potential or
real demolition hazards.

DEMOLITION PLAN:

A demolition plan developed and written by a competent person and based upon the engineering, lead and
asbestos surveys, shall be submitted prior to any demolition. The plan shall address the safe and recommended
procedures for the safe dismantling and removal of structures and debris.

The development of a project DEMOLITION PLAN shall include the locations and requirements for securing all
utilities that might be affected by demolition activities.

These specifics shall be included within the contents of any required plans, and shall be subject to review by

12.20 Site Sanitation Plan

12.20.1 Drinking Water

39
The contractor will provide bottled drinking water in sufficient quantity to provide the maximum anticipated
number of workers on site with 3 liters of water per 10 hour work shift. No other forms of drinking water will
be used or allowed on site.

12.20.2 Non-Potable Water

All containers or sources of water on site will be properly identified as either potable or non-potable. Non-
potable water may be used on site for dust suppression, site cleaning and other non-personal use.

12.20.3 Toilets

Portable chemical toilets will be placed on site by the contractor for use by all workers on site. The minimum
number of chemical toilets on site will be one (1), the toilets will be increased at the rate of one for each 20
workers anticipated on site.

The contractor will arrange for the toilets to be cleaned out at least once each day during the length of the
project. Any toilet which becomes damaged or unserviceable will be replaced.

12.20.4 Washing Facilities

Hand washing stations will be available at each portable chemical toilet. There will be hand a hand washing
station at the trailer on site where the medical treatment will be located.

12.20.5 Waste Disposal

The contractor will provide adequate dumpsters for the placement of non-construction related waste. These
dumpsters will be emptied on a regular basis.

Construction related waste will be removed regularly from the site to prevent it from creating a hazard for
movement around the site. All construction waste will be taken to the approved dumping site.

12.21 Fire Prevention Plan

A fire extinguisher, rated not less than 2A, shall be provided for each 280 square meters of a combustible
building area, or major fraction thereof. Travel distance from any point of the protection area to the nearest
fire extinguisher shall not exceed a horizontal distance of 50 feet or 15 meters.

When 10 liters or more of a flammable or combustible liquid is being used, an extinguisher must be within 50 ft
(15 m) Extinguishers must:

Be maintained in a fully charged and operable condition,

Be visually inspected each month,

Undergo a maintenance check and certification each year,

The area in front of fire extinguishers must be kept clear,

Post “Exit” signs over exiting doors, and post “Fire Extinguisher” signs over extinguisher locations,

Combustible materials stored outside should be at least 3 meters from any building,

Solvent waste and oily rags must be kept in a fire resistant, covered container until removed from the site,

Flammable/combustible liquids must be kept in approved containers, and must be stored in an approved
storage cabinet.

Fire extinguishers can represent an important segment of any overall fire protection program. However, their
successful functioning depends upon the following conditions having been met:

The extinguisher is properly located and in working order.

40
The extinguisher is of proper type and for a fire, which may occur.

The fire is discovered while still small enough for the extinguisher to be effective.

The fire is discovered by a person ready, willing, and able to use the extinguisher.

Class C fires can be readily extinguished by quenching-cooling with water or a watermixture agent. Class B fires
are more effectively extinguished by an agent that blankets-smothers the fire through exclusion of oxygen
surrounding the fire area.

Those extinguishers containing bromochlorodifluoromethane, monobromotrifluoromethane, carbon dioxide,

or dry chemical are generally best suited for extinguishing Class B fires. For Class C fires, the primary
consideration in extinguishing this type of fire is the selection of nonconductive extinguishing agent to prevent
dangerous electrical shock and possible death to user. Secure the source.

Due to its corrosive nature, dry chemical is not recommended for use on computerized, electronic or other
equipment with extensive circuitry.

Exposure to bloodborne pathogens may occur when rendering first aid or CPR, or when coming into contact
with landfill waste or waste streams containing potentially infectious material. Exposure controls and personal
protective equipment (PPE) are required. Hepatitis B vaccination must be offered before the person
participates in a task where exposure is a possibility.

14.0 SITE-SPECIFIC HAZARDS AND CONTROLS

In order to eliminate or minimize the possible accident s that could be occurred throughout the project a
detailed Activity hazard Analysis will be designated for any required phase of the definable feature of work.
Initial list of proposed Activity Hazard Analysis is given in the below list. This initial list will be developed
regularly by the supervisory of Government and additives of job supervisors after their inspections regarding
the conditions of same work item at the work site. As required by the government, Activity Hazard Analysis
blank forms designated for the each specific work item (see attachment NO-5 Activity Hazard Analysis blank
form) will be submitted to the government 15 days prior to the starting of each phase of work item. Analysis
will be implemented at each preparatory, initial and follow up phases of the work. Ensuring the
implementation on of the analysis at the site will be the responsibility of Site Safety and Health Officer by the
inspections that he will conduct. Output of these inspections will take place in the daily QC report.

14.1. Site Specific Fall Protection

Conventional fall protection systems like guardrails, parapet walls, scaffolds, will be used on this project
whenever possible. Where conventional fall protection is infeasible or impractical like at the leading edge of
the upper slabs, we plan to do this work using horizontal lifelines along the perimeter of the work area, to
which the workers will be attached via the lanyards of their harnesses.

Fall Protection Systems to be used in this Project

We will set up a safety monitoring system. The maximum number of workers to be monitored by one safety
monitor is six (6). The SSHO or his trained designees will act as safety monitors while the work is in progress.

Only individuals with the appropriate experience, skills, and training will be authorized to work in the then
designated Control Area. All employees that will be working under the safety monitoring system shall have
been trained and instructed in the following areas.

1. Recognition of the fall hazards in the work area.

2. Avoidance of fall hazards using established work practices which have been made known to the employees.

3. Recognition of unsafe practices or working conditions that could lead to a fall, such as windy conditions.

4. The function, use, and operation of safety monitoring systems, guardrail systems, harness systems, control

zones and other protection to be used.

A safety monitoring system means a fall protection system in which a competent person is responsible for

recognizing and warning employees of fall hazards. The duties of the safety monitor are to:

Safety Monitoring System

1. Warn by voice when approaching the open edge in an unsafe manner.

2. Warn by voice if there is a dangerous situation developing which cannot be seen by another person involved.

3. Make the other workers aware they are in a dangerous area.

4. Be competent in recognizing fall hazards.

5. Warn employees when they appear to be unaware of a fall hazard or are acting in an unsafe manner.

6. Be on the same walking/working surface as the monitored employees and within visual sighting distance of
the monitored employees.

7. Be close enough to communicate orally with the employees.

51
8. Not allow other responsibilities to encumber monitoring.

The safety monitoring system shall not be used when the wind is strong enough or when weather conditions
cause the walking/working surfaces to become icy or slippery.

Horizontal Lifelines:

Where guardrails and other conventional fall protection systems cannot be used, a horizontal lifelines system
will be designed by a competent person and installed. Horizontal lifelines used will be steel wire rope of ½” in
diameter minimum extended along the edge of the work area between supporting posts. Horizontal lifelines as
planned will comply with the following provisions:

1. Where slab edge work and other operations are taking place the lifelines shall be placed not less than 6 feet
from the slab edge.

2. The lifelines shall extend along the entire length of the unprotected or slab edge and shall be approximately
parallel to the unprotected or slab edge.

3. The lifelines shall be connected on each side to end anchorages or to stanchions posts.

4. Lifelines as planned will consist of wire ropes, steel cables and supporting stanchions as follows:

5. Each lifeline shall be flagged or otherwise clearly marked at not more than 6 foot (1.8m) intervals with
highvisibility material.

6. Each line shall be rigged and supported in such a way that its lowest point (including sag) is not less than 39
inches (1m) from the walking/working surface and its highest point is not more than 45 inches (1.3m) from the
walking/working surface. Supporting posts will be 2” diameter minimum if metal and 4x4 if wood, with spacing
of 15 ft maximum.

7. Each lifeline shall be rated 5000 lbs minimum breaking strength. Cable ends shall be attached with a
minimum of three U (3) clamps of no less than ½’’ diameter.

8. All employees will be trained in the use of lifelines in combination with personal fall arrest harnesses.

Holes:

All openings greater than 12 in. x 12 in. will have perimeter guarding or covering. All predetermined holes will
have plywood or wood covers . Prior to cutting holes on the job, proper protection for the hole must be
provided to protect the workers. Perimeter guarding or covers will not be removed without the approval of the
foreman.

Conventional Fall Protection

A. Personal Fall Arrest Systems

Personal fall arrest systems by themselves will not be able to provide the required fall protection in this project.
The need for fixed attachment points which are unavailable above the work surface and would preclude the
workers nailing floorboards or placing reinforcement to move around, makes the use of only personal fall
arrest systems impractical. Hence they must be used as part of a larger system or non conventional system
because of the nature of the job.

Other Fall Protection Measures

A vehicle mounted platform will not allow the number of workers required to erect the formwork to do so
efficiently from the platform as the job would require stepping out of the platform thus exposing the workers
to fall hazards. It would also increase the time required to do the job as to be quite impractical. Vehicle
mounted platforms will be used in other parts of the job but not for the slab formwork placement.

Vehicle mounted platforms are not used because:

52
Constant awareness of and respect for fall hazards, and compliance with all safety rules are considered
conditions of employment. The jobsite Superintendent, as well as individuals in the Safety and Personnel
Department, reserve the right to issue disciplinary warnings to employees, up to and including termination, for
failure to follow the guidelines of this program.

Accident Investigations:

All accidents that result in injury to workers, regardless of their nature, shall be investigated and reported. It is
an integral part of any safety program that documentation takes place as soon as possible so that the cause
and means of prevention can be identified to prevent a reoccurrence.

In the event that an employee falls or there is some other related, serious incident occurring, this plan shall be
reviewed to determine if additional practices, procedures, or training need to be implemented to prevent
similar types of falls or incidents from occurring.
