Emergency Plan (Medical, Fire, Chemical, Extreme Weather)

PURPOSE

This practice provides requirements for developing a site- or office-specific procedure for response to, and management of, emergencies and disasters.  As projects/offices may have the potential for exposure to different hazards, it is necessary to develop procedures specific to the project/office.

SCOPE

  • This practice includes the following major sections:
  • General Requirements
  • Responsibilities
  • Emergency Evacuation
  • Injury/Illness Care
  • Chemical Spill

APPLICATION

This practice applies to work activities and employees under the control of company and its subcontractors.This practice, however, should not duplicate or replace procedures put in place by local emergency services.

DEFINITIONS

None. (if applicable)

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

Management at each site, and in each office, must develop specific written emergency procedures/plans addressing signals and alarms, communications, actions, responsibilities, evacuation routes, assembly points, and personnel accounting.

Note: Adoption of, and/or coverage under, a client or other contractor’s emergency procedure(s) is acceptable, provided the following criteria are met:

  • The procedure(s) covers emergencies/conditions that are reasonably anticipated, based on project scope.
  • The “owner” of the procedure(s) agrees.
  • Employees are trained in the procedure(s).
  • Employees participate in drills, including post-drill analysis/feedback.

The important point to remember as a priority before implementing the Emergency Procedures, office management will designate and train an appropriate number of workforce to assist in the safe and formal emergency evacuation of employees.
Pertinent information about emergency signals, evacuation routes, assembly points and alarms to employees will be disseminated by whatever educational means are deemed most effective by the project/office (such as wallet cards, signs, orientations, bulletin.

 RESPONSIBILITIES

Project/office management or facility management will administer the requirements in this practice (if/as appropriate, in conjunction with client/owner emergency plans).
Management will regulate the proper and essential workforce/employees to perform emergency functions, for example:

  • Define the emergency.
  • Establish communication notification channels.
  • Establish a communication network with the site or facility, including outside sources, if necessary
  • Provide radio communications suited for monitoring the weather service frequency in the locale area.
  • Establish personnel accountability systems (including visitors).
  • Making sure that work ceases in the affected areas.
  • Making sure that medical personnel respond as dictated by the emergency.
  • Establish a technique to get help from outside, if necessary.
  • Identify emergency shelters that may be used.
  • Determine if employees can make it into work, or if employees at work can contact their families or travel home.
  • Ensure offsite emergency service providers are oriented to the project/office and associated hazards.

EMERGENCY EVACUATION

  • The purpose is to evacuate a site or facility systematically, safely, and in an orderly manner in case of fire or other major disasters, and to have a specified plan of action for a partial or full evacuation.
  • The following requirements mandatory and required almost for all emergency evacuations:
  • Unauthorized personnel may not re-enter the emergency area for any reason until the “all clear” signal is sounded.
  • Keep clear and free of any obstruction or blockage of emergency personnel and equipment responding to the emergency.
  • Do not make unnecessary telephone calls during an emergency.
  • Only authorized management may release information outside the company.
  • Site/facility manager is responsible for contacting corporate management, local, state, and/or federal authorities.

PRE-PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS

Pre-planning of the evacuation process should include, but not be limited to, the following:
Evacuation Notice – After an evacuation notice has been given, management directly & promptly states the nature of the emergency and communicates this to all workforce/employees. The evacuation message should specify the type of evacuation (partial or full) and the personnel to whom it applies.  As an example, a message calling for the evacuation of the maintenance building would apply only to the people in that building.
Evacuation Assembly Areas – Personnel in the affected area at the time of the incident should go to a pre-designated assembly area that can be reached carefully.  All personnel must be familiar with all assembly area locations.
Note: Personnel temporarily assigned to areas other than their normal work location are to report to the evacuation point at the temporary work area.
Identify and post-emergency phone numbers:

  • Fire, police, rescue
  • Manager’s office
  • Paging system
  • Key personnel (home)

INJURY AND ILLNESS CARE

A. Onsite First-Aid Care.

First-aid personnel and facilities will be provided at the project/office, for the treatment of minor ailments. Apart from very minor cuts and scratches (which may be “self-treated” following project/office-specific procedures) first-aid personnel should treat first-aid cases.

B. Offsite Care.

Arrangements will be made with offsite medical service providers (at least two is recommended). Except in emergency circumstances, each employer will be responsible for transporting injured or ill employees to medical facilities off-site. The onsite first-aid provider will become the liaison officer with the offsite healthcare providers. An emergency telephone number must be posted around the site/office.

Emergency Care.

The office 0or project manager or engineer will determine the proper and essential process for providing emergency care to ill/injured personnel.  Attention and priority will be given to the size of the workforce, location, access, external service availability, and distances.

Quick Drench Facilities.

Where the body or eyes of an employer may be exposed to corrosive materials, suitable facilities for quick drenching or flushing of the eyes and body will be provided within 10 seconds for emergency use.

10. CHEMICAL SPILL

The site/office will have adequately trained personnel to effectively respond to a spill of chemicals used or stored at the project/office.  Supplies of proper and essential personal protective equipment, cleanup tools, and equipment will be available. All spills will be reported, investigated, and when required notification will be given to the regulatory authorities, Environmental Management.

Emergency Response Preparedness and Procedures.

1-Purpose

This procedure describes the processes to identify potential emergencies and potential accidents that can have an impact on the environment, and how (Name for your Company & Environmental Agency of the Country) responds to such events.  

2-Scope

This procedure contains the following sections:

Write down the sections, policies, standards, rules and regulations as per the (your Company & Environmental Agency of the Country)
2.1 Recognition and detection of potential emergencies and accidents
2.2 Response to emergencies and mitigation of adverse environmental impacts
2.3 Test and review of emergency preparedness and response procedures

3-Definitions and Glossary

MD-Managing Director
MR-Management Representative
OM-Operations Manager
H&S-Health & Safety

4-Responsibility

The Managing Director / Health & Safety Manager are responsible for the implementation of this procedure. The Managing Director are responsible for identifying potential emergencies and potential accidents and determining those potential situations/accidents that may have a significant environmental impact. The Operations Manager and Management Representative are responsible for the review and periodic testing of elements of the emergency preparedness and response procedures. The Managing Director, Operations Manager and Management Representative are responsible for the implementation of corrective and preventative action resulting from an emergency /accident.  

5-Procedure

5.1-Identification of Potential Emergencies and Accidents

Identification of potential emergencies and accidents will be conducted through the Risk Assessment (RA) process for all new contracts/introduction of new working methods and techniques. A Risk Assessment (RA) policy is also developed and recorded in the company’s health, safety and environmental H&S handbook. Identification of methods, risks, hazards and controls (based on site/job specific risk assessments) may also be documented in new contract proposals as requested by the customer. These will include method statement, legislation and proper and essential persona protective equipment (PPE) required. Proposal documents will also include identification of environmental issues covering potential noise, land, and water and air pollution. The purpose of risk assessment is to identify the significant risks in the workplace and then control those risks at an acceptable level and to comply with the Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations.    
All aspects of the work activity are reviewed for Risk Assessment.  Where hazardous chemical risks are encountered, C.O.S.H.H. Assessment Procedures are followed and where other risks are to be assessed, the policies in the MRF Name H&S handbook will be implemented – this includes key aspects such as working from height, confined spaces, manual handling, contact with waste, use of the equipment and environmental risks. Health & Safety requirements may also be supported by an external H&S consultancy. Where proper, detailed method statements are also developed for specific contracts/worksite operations. These method statements include the scope of work, job-specific instructions, risk assessment, accident and near-miss reporting, toolbox talks, PPE and equipment information and sign-off / acknowledgement sheets.  Emergency Response activities include spillage/contamination control measures. If an emergency or accident occurs about the collection, processing and shipment of waste / recycle by (Name for your Company & Environmental Agency of the Country), emergency response activities will be implemented accordingly.

The identification of potential emergencies and accidents that could have an adverse environmental impact is supported by the Environmental Aspect and Impact Registration activity which has identified any significant impacts using the form (format for the specific form template) – this includes those that may occur under emergency conditions. About MRF office environmental emergencies and accidents, the risk about the activities carried out by (Name for your Company & Environmental Agency of the Country) is relatively low (office activities and weighbridge management only). The identification of potential office-based emergencies and accidents that could have an adverse environmental impact is also supported by the Environmental Aspect and Impact Registration activity where appropriate. The potential for emergencies or accidents at nearby facilities has also been assessed and recorded where appropriate. No significant external risk that requires additional operational controls or procedures has been identified.

5.2-Response to Emergencies and Mitigation of Adverse Environmental Impacts

MRF activities that are higher risk may include:

  • Fire.
  • Vehicle movement.
  • Oil / Diesel spillage.
  • Line sorting activity 1.
  • ANO Process/activity 1.

The identification of methods, risks, hazards and controls (based on site/job specific risk assessments) about the above are documented in MRF Name H&S handbook which will include method statement, legislation and PPE required. In the unwanted incident of an emergency arising that has an negative environmental impact, emergency response actions (as documented in site folders, risk assessments and material safety data sheets), will be implemented.

Upon satisfactory completion of the emergency response, appropriate paperwork/documentation as required by the local authority / Environmental Agency is to be raised and submitted. In parallel with this, the post-accident evaluation will be carried out and appropriate corrective and preventive action implemented. Corrective and preventive action must be documented on a Quality and Environmental report form (Name for your Company & Environmental Agency of the Country) and should include details of the emergency /accident, root cause, environmental impact, corrective and preventive actions, responsibilities and timescales.  A review of the effectiveness of action should also be documented In the event of a head office emergency, the appropriate elements of the (Name for your Company & Environmental Agency of the Country) H&S documentation and Business Continuity Plan will be adopted, overseen by the health and safety representative (Emergency Controller) and the MR. This will include:

  1. Evacuation of building / affected areas.
  2. Liaison with emergency services.
  3. Instigation of the communication plan.
  4. Review of environmental implications.
  5. Implementation of mitigation and response actions.

The post-accident evaluation will also be carried out and appropriate corrective and preventive action documented on a Quality and Environmental report form (Name for your Company & Environmental Agency of the Country) as above. Other elements of Control of disapproval, Corrective Action and Preventive Action are included in the Monitoring, Measurement and Health, safety and environmental Improvement procedure.

5.3-Evaluation, Review or Test of Emergency Preparedness and Response Procedures (EPRP)

The test and review of the Emergency Preparedness and Response process are carried out following (Name for your Company & Environmental Agency of the Country) Emergency Response procedures. This may include the test/review or evaluation of elements of disaster recovery, training/performance of emergency response personnel (ERP), building evacuation, internal and external communication, and availability of risk/hazard information and effectiveness of (planned) mitigation and response actions. The majority of these processes are tested and verified each time an MRF emergency arises. In addition to the above, response to simulated emergencies is also tested through periodic (at least annual) exercises overseen by the MD / MR, following the MRF Name Business Continuity Plan where appropriate. Results of these exercises are recorded and any improvement opportunities identified. The evacuation of the office facility is also tested annually. All office computers are appropriately backed up (see Document Control procedure XXXX). A test of the office back-up process is carried out by the MR every quarter.

Back Disorders Toolbox Talks

Back disorders such as muscle or ligament strain, bulging or ruptured disks, arthritis and osteoporosis, etc. are known as the "Top Ten" leading worksite injuries described by the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). Such disorders account for 27-30 per cent of all non-fatal minor or major injuries and illnesses including days away from tasks. Our back is a sophisticated and complicated piece of machinery establishment of various muscles, bones, nerves, and supporting tissues. It's a machine we use every day, probably in ways we don't even notice.

Just like a machine, our back requires proper care to keep it working. If it's not working right, we'll suffer. An injured back affects our ability to move our limbs, hips, neck, and head. Injuries to the back can be very disabled, causing severe pain, time away from work, and often needing physical therapy or even surgery. Everyone whose job includes stressful & heavy lifting or awkward postures is at high risk for back injury disorders. 

Here are some tips to keep our back in optimum condition:

Exercise also plays a vital role in keeping our back strong, healthy, and flexible. An appropriately exercised back is less likely to be damaged by back injuries. Our physician, company medical personnel, or another health-care provider can recommend the best exercises for us, taking into consideration our physical condition and the type of work we do. We should always be attentive to such critical situations that could lead to severe and serious back injuries. We should always be kind to our back. We should never take inappropriate chances. 

By following appropriate and essential lifting and reaching techniques, methods and exercising properly. 

When You Are Lifting:

  1. Don't bend over an object you are lifting. Bend your knees, squatting in front of the object to reach it.
  2. Lift the object slowly and carefully, using your leg and arm muscles to lift, not pulling with your back. 
  3. Keep your head up and look straight ahead while making the lift. 
  4. While lifting, keep the object as close to your body as possible.
  5. Keep abdominal muscles tight while making the lift.
  6. Use the same techniques when you put the object down. 
  7. If the object is too big or too heavy to lift using these techniques, use mechanical assistance or get someone else to help.

Key Points:

  • Keep your back straight and vertical while lifting.
  • Don’t twist as you lift.
  • Keep the load close to your body as you lift.
  • If a load is too heavy or cumbersome get someone to help you.

Thermometer Verification Records & Monthly Thermometer Calibration Forms

Proper record maintenance is an integral part and parcel of thermometer calibration if we are cooking in a smokehouse, dehydrator, or steam cabinet, getting our team in the habit of calibrating thermometers on a continual term and documenting the results is mandatory.

How and When to Calibrate the Temperature?

Generally, as per the HACCP recommendations, calibrating the temperature probes in an industrial oven every day. It may look a bit disturbing, to do this, there’s realistic and good logic. When a temperature probe is detected to be beyond the calibration, all the product we have cooked by utilizing that probe have to be discarded or recalled. If we have calibrated a week ago, a week’s worth of product must be discarded or recalled. If we calibrated a day ago, only 1 days’ worth of product must be discarded or recalled. Calibrating the temperature and product probes in our oven daily just make sense!

The restaurant’s or company’s thermometer probe (s) to emulate and examine the temperature will be calibrated by putting the probe in a crushed ice/water slurry, stirring & electrifying quickly and reading with recording/documenting the temperature. This condition’s temperature should be 32° F, the melting point of ice.  Check if the probe is not 32°F (Fahrenheit), the probe can be set with the help of  a tool to rotate the screw under the rear side of the dial to pin point 32° F when placed in the ice slurry. And then next, put the probe in cooler for 4-5 minutes near the cooler thermometer, allowing time for probe to adjust appropriately. The temperatures positions and conditions of both should be recorded and compared, and note down. The curative initiative must be documented. The detected records must also be analyzed and established.

Job Safety Analysis Worksheet Form

Brief Analysis of Job Safety Analysis (JSA) & Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s)

To keep worksite free of unwanted and fatal incidents/accidents, every employer, employee or accountable personals e.g., project engineers, line managers, site supervisors and the most integral part of this process, health and safety specialists (HSE Engineers, Officers or manager) plays a vital role by showing and practicing their capabilities and promoting safe and secure health and safety culture within the organisation. For the accomplishment of such safe and secure hazard and risk free environmental, verity of legal, moral, financial terms, laws, regulations, standard operating procedures and proper documentation is followed and implemented.
Before starting every work at site, the Job Safety Analysis (JSA’s) is a primary process of determining physical requirements, environmental conditions and safety circumstances relating to a particular job or task. Job Safety Analysis (JSA’s) are the most frequently utilized for static or repetitive tasks, in which the job, equipment and work environment change minor.

The Safe Operating Procedures (SOP)

Particularly, the Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s) are created step-by-step methods for a specific non-repetitive work activity which may be hazardous. The objective of the Safe Operating Procedures (SOP) is to provide written and appropriate documented guidance for a specific activity/task such that any competent, professional and qualified worker/employee can successfully and safely accomplished the work activity. the Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s) are best initiative and utilized for highly skilled jobs and when the equipment, machinery or tool and working environment change often. Such as, a Safe Operating Procedures (SOP) with proper and essential warnings and cautions, would best be created and used for work activities/tasks, for example, entry into confined space, MEP tasks, lockout-tag out (LOTO), welding operations (hot), system startup and shutdown.

What Job Safety Analysis (JSA) & Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s) provide?

  1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) determination process 
  2. Resource for supervisors (various fields including MEP, FLS, civil, oil & gas, etc.) to train new employees 
  3. Proper control of work activities /job steps 
  4. Identification and prevention of potential fatal hazards 
  5. Benchmark for sever or minor accident/incident and near misses’ investigation 
  6. Analysis of employee achievements and or performances. 
The most essential and integral Part of JSA process is the Supervisor of any level, who is in continuously and consistently in coordination and connection with Supervisors are in an exceptional position to recognize and correct unsafe acts and conditions as they occur. 

Documents for SOP’s & JSA’s Preparedness

The following forms and documents are feasible for developing Job Safety Analysis (JSA) & Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s) are:

  1. Job Safety Analysis (JSA) Form
  2. Job Safety Analysis (JSA) Task Steps
  3. Task Hazard Assessment Logbook (HAW)
  4. Task Hazard Prevention & Control Logbook
  5. Process for the Job Safety Analysis (JSA)
  6. Job Safety Analysis (JSA) Consist of the Following Main Points:
  7. Physical Requirements for the Task/Work Activity/Job
  8. Environmental Conditions where the work or activity to be conducted.
  9. What type of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) required?
  10. Steps for the job to be carried out.

What type of Potential Accident or Hazards associated with that each of the step?

what safety measures to be adopted to accomplished for each step of that particular job/task?
Job Safety Analysis (JSA) are Completed Through the Followings Steps:
Development of Job Safety Analysis (JSA’s)
Review and approval of Job Safety Analysis (JSA’s) JSA’s
Implementation of Job Safety Analysis (JSA’s)
Review and updating Job Safety Analysis (JSA’s) JSA’s
Periodic Training using Job Safety Analysis (JSA’s)

Development of JSA/SOP

There are many ways to develop Job Safety Analysis (JSA) & Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s), however, observation and team approach has proven the most trusted. by watching carefully, the tasks, the inspector /observer can see immediate what is needed, recognize the hazards and suggest alternatives. 

Following is the sequence used to make a Job Safety Analysis (JSA) & Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s):

  1. Select the most competent observer
  2. Explain the objectives of your observations
  3. Observe closely and carefully the task and explain each steps used to accomplish the assignment
  4. Document the primary steps
  5. Review each of the step with the observer explanation.
  6. Observe the task a second time to identify residual hazards record the findings that include the following:
  • Impact
  • Contact with Chemicals/substances
  • Caught on or between (machinery, object or rotating parts of machinery, etc.)
  • Lacerations
  • Skin Burns
  • Fall, Slip or trip
  • Over exertion
  • Cumulative Trauma
  • Observe the task for the third time to develop corrective initiatives to all hazard potentials
  • Review your findings with the Employee apparently
  • Complete the Job Safety Analysis (JSA) form or write Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s)

Review and Approval of Job Safety Analysis (JSA) & Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s)

After the draft copy of the Job Safety Analysis (JSA) & Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s) has been accomplished, it should be reviewed by a team consisting of the Safety consultant/Coordinator, Department Manager/Line Manger, Project/site Engineer, Supervisor and affected workers/Employees. After discussing all questions with the team members, a final version is then drafted.

Implementation of JSA/SOP’s

Completed Job Safety Analysis (JSA) & Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s) are then analyzed with the entire department by the Supervisor. New hires and transfers should have the JSA/SOP’s reviewed with them and made part of the Employee's job performance evaluation.

Updating Job Safety Analysis (JSA) & Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s)

All new hazards, machineries and their operations, equipment and tools should be upgraded on the JSA/SOP’s and communicated essentially to all workers ASAP. JSA’s will become out-dated if not reviewed periodically.

Periodic Training and Retraining

Annually, the Job Safety Analysis (JSA) & Safe Operating Procedures (SOP’s) should be analyzed by the Supervisors with all Employees. JSA/SOP’s should be analyzed with the Employee during an accident investigation to help identify possible causes or problem areas.
