This program is nominally tied to achieving statistical goals based upon OSHA
recordkeeping guidelines. However, it also takes into account manning and field
conditions in different work areas and more subjective assessments regarding
contributions made by the individual, or group, to such items as near miss reporting,
area housekeeping and/or general safety awareness issues.
Awards are given on a monthly basis and include monetary as well as other
incentives. A cumulative points system is sometimes employed to select Quarterly
or Semi-annual group winners who qualify for generous awards; either monetary or
other incentives including, for example, paid time off.
Announcements and notices are used to publicize the achievements of the safety
program, and the award winners, as a way of keeping everyone informed and
involved.
The Contractor’s program also includes a penalty clause that will be assessed on
those individuals, or groups, that commit infractions of the site safety rules,
practices and regulations. Serious infractions are dealt with disciplinary action;
however, minor infractions (or oversights) are also noted and publicized for the
education of the work force.
1.12 Inspections
Safety Inspections shall be carried out to ensure safe working conditions and
evaluate compliance with relevant safety rules, procedures legislation and
regulations for construction site activities. Site safety inspections consist of the
following:
1.12.1 Daily Inspections

unannounced, will be directed to the Site Manager. The overall responsibility for
coordinating these visits will be that of the Site Manager and the Site HSE Manager.
During site visits, regulatory officials will be requested to attend a pre-inspection
meeting and a post-inspection meeting with the Site Manager, Site HSE Manager
and other personnel as designated. The Site HSE Manager will prepare a report
summarizing the visit, findings and the actions that are required. Corrective action
will be completed promptly, regulatory officials will be kept informed and copies of
the report will be issued to CONTRACTOR Project Management and to OWNER
Project Management.
1.13 Safety Rules and Discipline
To ensure that all personnel work safely on the construction site, a wide ranging set
of general safety rules and regulations will be applied. The rules will apply across
the Project and are a reflection of industry standards and best practices. Working
safely is everyone’s responsibility.
1.13.1 Progressive Discipline System
Providing positive reinforcement and recognition for those employees who
consistently comply with site rules and safe work procedures is important. All
Contactor Group and Subcontractor employers are responsible for ensuring their
employees are knowledgeable regarding general rules and regulations. Failure to
comply with the general rules and regulations by an employee on an ongoing basis
is a serious violation and will require application of a progressive discipline system.
A progressive discipline system that is objective and performance based will be
implemented for addressing substandard behaviour by an employee(s).
Management and site supervision will be responsible for monitoring compliance
with site policies, general rules, standards and safe work procedures and then
applying the progressive discipline system as needed.
An effective progressive discipline system must meet the following requirements:
1) Use complete and objective evidence
2) Be based on rules which have been communicated to workers

1.13.1.1 Verbal Warning
At the first level of discipline, the Site Supervisor will meet privately with the
employee to present objective evidence regarding the non-compliance. The general
safety rule(s) that apply will be clearly stated. The employee will be warned, with
due respect for the employee’s dignity, regarding the progressive system that exists
for continued non-compliance. The results of the meeting shall be documented to
the employee’s file.
1.13.1.2 Written Warning
At the second level, the Site Supervisor will again meet with the employee privately
and present further objective evidence. A written warning will be issued to the
employee and then the supervisor and employee will review and sign the written
warning. In the event that the employee refuses to sign the notice, two witnesses
shall be requested to sign the notice to confirm that it was effectively served. The
supervisor shall document the results of the meeting to the employee’s file.
1.13.1.3 Suspension
At the third level, further violation of site policies, general rules, standards and safe
work procedures will result in the suspension of an employee. Suspension is
without pay. The Site Supervisor shall review the suspension with the discipline
superintendent prior to convening a review meeting with the employee. The minutes
of the meeting shall be documented to the employee’s file.
1.13.1.4 Termination
A serious offence may require that the employee be removed from site. This is the
final step of the progressive discipline system and shall require careful review by
Site Management and Site Supervisors prior to taking this action. With their
approval, the immediate supervisor and discipline superintendent will participate in

1.15 Safe Work Processes
A hazard identification and control process is a critical part of a safe work
procedures program. It is through the control of hazards that the frequency and
severity of accidents is reduced thereby reducing financial costs and impact on the
worker.
Hazard identification and control strategies on the will include risk assessments,
daily toolbox meetings and work permitting. This process is complemented by the
use of safe work procedures and ongoing inspection programs.
1.15.1 Definitions
1) Hazard
Any condition or circumstance which poses the risk of an incident.
2) Risk Assessment
A risk evaluation of a construction site, project or operation for the purpose of
identifying the actual and potential hazards that exist and the loss control
measures to reduce the hazards to acceptable levels.
1.15.2 Risk Assessment (RA)
A Risk Assessment of the Project Works shall be conducted prior to set up of the
new work site. The Site Manager or designate and each senior Subcontractor area
manager or superintendent shall conduct a hazard assessment of their designated
works to identify, assess and control existing risks or potential risks to people,
property or the environment.
Each risk assessment will identify the actual and potential hazards and will consist
of a three-step process:
1) Identifying the upcoming tasks or work activities
2) Identifying the exposures to people, property and the environment. Property
exposures are related to the equipment, tools and materials used by
employees in completing job procedures and work tasks
3) Identifying the actions required to eliminate or, mitigate risk to acceptable levels
using ALARP principle (as low as reasonably practicable)

Each risk assessment will establish a preliminary safe work plan for the jobsite and
identify those jobs and tasks with additional risk. Those identified as high risk jobs
will require further detailed risk assessment. Updating of the risk assessment will be
completed regularly as additional work plan details become available. Regular
updates will allow line supervision time to prepare job work plans and obtain the
necessary equipment, tools and materials for upcoming jobs.
Risk assessment should be performed for high risk activities including, but not
limited to the following:
1) Confined Space Entry
2) Trenching or Open Excavations
3) Electrical Isolation
4) Encroachment on Overhead Electrical Systems
5) Encroachment on Underground Utilities
6) Critical Crane Lifts
7) Hazardous Materials Handling
8) Work in Process/Operating Areas
9) New jobs with unknown hazards
10) Non-routine jobs or tasks
11) When after preliminary analysis, an existing procedure or plan does not
adequately cover the work
12) Deviation from accepted work practice or existing safe job procedure
13) New equipment and machinery procedures
14) Jobs or tasks with repeating loss incidents
The completed RA must be reviewed with work crew members before a job or task
begins, at daily toolbox meetings or at a weekly safety meetings. Deviations from
accepted work practices will require completion of a RA with approval from the next
higher level of supervision. Contractor will maintain comprehensive records of all
RA activities.
