TRANSPORTATION OF CYLINDERS Most accidents or injuries involving cylinders happen when moving or handling the gas cylinders. Use the right equipment, correct procedures, and sufficient number of persons to lift and move cylinders to avoid personal injury and cylinder damage Wear protective footwear, safety glasses, and heavy gloves. Securely install the valve protection devices, such as caps or guards. Secure cylinders upright to a proper hand truck or cylinder cart designed for the purpose. Don't drag or roll them – use a properly designed cart or hand truck. When using a crane, be sure to use proper cradles, nets, boats, or special platforms designed for this purpose to prevent cylinders from falling Prevent damage – handle carefully – avoid dropping or banging them Do not lift by the protective cap/guard or use magnets or slings to lift or move them since valves may be damaged or EHSared off USE OF CYLINDERS Keep cylinders upright and away from heat, sparks, fire, physical damage, or electrical circuits to avoid rupture. Use in a well-ventilated area to avoid gas accumulation. Do not bring cylinders into a confined space to avoid inhaling the gas and possible suffocation from the accumulation of flammable, toxic, or reactive gases. Read, understand, and follow all cylinder markings and labels to avoid Misuse.

Before connecting a regulator, stand to one side, and momentarily open the valve and then close it immediately. This procedure, called “cracking” the valve, is done to clear the valve of dust or dirt that could enter the regulator. Open valves slowly by hand to avoid gauge damage. If a specific tool is required to open the valve, leave it in position so that the flow of gas can be stopped quickly in an emergency. Lift and move cylinders properly Close the gas cylinder valves when not in use such as during breaks, lunch, or end-of-shift to avoid leaks. Avoid getting any oil or grease on the cylinders or regulators/gauges, particularly those containing oxygen, to avoid fire or explosion. Storage is not required for single cylinders of fuel gas and oxygen ready for use with regulators attached secured to a proper cart.

Method Statements Piling operations can give rise to different hazards dependent upon the type of piling being undertaken. Certain hazards are, however, generally common on al types of piling and the following gives the risks and associated controls relevant to site preparation, the general precautions and the various types of piling methods in use. The main types of piling covered are a. Driven Piling b. EHSet Piling 1. c. Rotary Bored Piling d. Tripod Piling

All user /supervisor

In all cases, and before any piling operations commence a full method statement and risk assessment must be prepared by the piling contractor or persons carrying out the operations. This method statement must be thoroughly vetted by management before any works are started. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION & RISK ASSESSMENT Site Preparations: When carrying out all types of piling, with the exception of tripod piling, the initial site preparations are of utmost importance. The main reasons for this are that in all cases heavy plant and machinery will be used, and often the exact conditions of the land and its contents are unknown. Site Preparations: When carrying out all types of piling, with the exception of tripod piling, the initial site preparations are of utmost importance. The main reasons for this are that in all cases heavy plant and machinery will be used, and often the exact conditions of the land and its contents are unknown. 2.

Driven Piling: This operation includes the driving of pre-cast, driven cast in-situ timber or steel EHSet piles. In all situations associated with driven piling the activities will generate a considerable amount of noise, which must be considered when the general risk assessment process is being undertaken. If such noise outputs are likely to cause environmental problems then consideration must be given to the use of alternative methods at the design stage. Tripod Piling: Tripod piling is more labour intensive than other types of piling operations, conditions under foot can become very difficult due to spoil, water and slurry.

Sheet No. 21 of 114 TITLE: SAFE PROCEDURE FOR PILING

GENERAL PRECAUTION Prior to commencement on site the piling contractor needs to have information relating to the condition of the land. All surveys and examinations must be carried out by competent persons and any information relating to previous land uses must be obtained and made available. The position and location of underground services, voids and watercourses should be establiEHSd prior to work commencing. Confirmation of such whereabouts should be by reference to all relevant information as provided by the Client/ Planning Supervisor or from information received from statutory authorities. All overhead services must be clearly marked, by appropriate barriers; goal posts etc. (see Overhead Services). Work must not commence until a safe system of working has been prepared and agreed. The presence of watercourses and expected run off routes needs to be identified. This aspect is of particular importance where contaminated land conditions are present. The appropriate authorization and/or notification must be obtained prior to any discharge taking place (see Contaminated Sites and Environment). Adequate space must be provided for the contractors operations and for safe storage of materials. In particular the movement of service cranes should be considered when determining the layout for piling operations. The most common cause of piling rig collapse is poor ground conditions. Ensure a firm piling mat has been provided, and that all ground conditions have been taken into consideration at initial assessment stage. Rigging and de-rigging may only be carried out under the supervision of a competent person who has been nominated by the piling contractor. The correct safe procedure is set out in the manufacturers or operators hand book for the rigging and de-rigging operations. All other persons should stand clear whilst the operation is taking place. Safety harnesses should be used when working at height. In addition all personnel involved in piling operations must wear the appropriate protective equipment and clothing i.e. safety helmets, and boots, eye and ear protection and gloves.

Upon arrival at site, the machine must be inspected before use, by a competent person. All certification must be updated in 4 months. Results of inspections must be recorded. All loads which are to be lifted must only be lifted using the correct slings and signaling techniques which are set out. All open pile shafts must be either covered or have barriers placed around them to prevent persons from gaining access. This also includes freshly poured piles. All piling rigs, side boom and other lifting equipment shall have a certificate before entering the work site. These equipments shall be inspected on regular basis. The area where hoisting operation are being carried out shall be roped off. Personal inside the rope area shall be only those directly employed on the hoisting activity. No one is allowed to walk under suspended load or boom under load. Prior to starting the lift by two booms calculation shall be made before lifting. All piling rigs and hoisting equipment shall be provided with a suitable fire extinguiEHSr. When working near overhead Power lines or bus bars the following safe distances shall be maintained.   

A minimum distance of 3 Meters for Voltage up to 500 V. A minimum distance of 5 Meters for Voltage exceeding 500 V. A permit is required for work within 20 Meters of overhead Power lines.

Electrical shielding of power lines is required when minimum clearance distances cannot be maintained. Adequate Protection for underground cables and Pipeline with heavy equipment and loads adequate mats or steel plate shall be used to prevent damage. All works to be supervised by a competent supervisor/ foreman.

To Check work commences on site, the outline information provided at pre-contract stage should be developed into a method statement. Erection operations must not commence until the method statement has been approved by site management. Site preparation To check suitable unobstructed safe access for delivery vehicles, cranes and other plant. The position of overhead services, particularly live electric cables should be checked as should the positions of any buried services which may be vulnerable to damage by traffic. Movements around the site should be planned with the provision of designated access ways. Ground Preparation and bases To check sound foundation for each column. It should be capable of accepting both a vertical load and also the additional horizontal thrust which is developed as soon as temporary props are removed. Pre-cast frame columns are usually inserted into sockets cast into the foundation blocks and consequently are required to be held temporarily in place after alignment. Wedges and props are used for this purpose until the column has been made secure by grouting. Other types of pre-case columns incorporate a steel base plate similar to those found on a prefabricated steel column. The bolts should be loosened off immediately after compaction of the concrete by rotating them in their sleeves. Errors in position, alignment and level can lead to improvisation by erectors. Holding down bolts are designed only for loads experienced by the completed structure, it is at this phase that excess loads, if applied to them, will give rise to the danger of collapse, unless adequate temporary bracing is provided in the form of props or guys.

Tripods and anchorage points for guy ropes should be suitably protected from vehicle traffic and locked off where there is potential risk of vandalism. Adequate supplies of steel plate packing pieces should be provided for use on leveling prior to grouping. Once the frame is erected, lined and leveled it is essential that holding down bolts are maintained tight

4.

5.

Erection of a Steel Frame To check the safe erection of a structure is the “braced bay”. To achieve this braced bay, requires 4 columns or stanchions, which are connected by 4 pieces of fabricated steel, tied and stabilized by either temporary or permanent bracing. The crane is often required to hold unstable units until connections are made and stability achieved. Pre – cast Concrete and Concrete Frame Erection Accuracy and efficiency in erection depends on correct preparation of the bases, which may be sockets or pockets into which the columns are set, or “bolt down” arrangements using a steel base plate fixed to the concrete unit. Once the columns are erected and leveled in the joining truss or beam may be placed in position and the connections made. Grouting and pointing of the joints should be carried out as work proceeds.

The greatest risk faced by persons placing concrete floor units is that of falls. In common with the accepted practice in roofing, edge protection must be fixed prior to the placing of any floor unit. It is acceptable to leave unprotected the “leading edge” however, when work is suspended or left unattended a barrier should be placed at the leading edge unless all access to that floor is removed. An alternative method of fall protection which can be utilized is the provision of harnesses and running lines.

Vehicle accidents can be costly from the standpoint of time lost, vehicle repair, and medical costs, not to mention human injury in general. It is your responsibility to closely follow the laws set forth by the State of Alabama as your rules of the road. It is also your responsibility to provide maintenance to the vehicle for which you are responsible. This means notifying your supervisor of braking or steering problems, lights or horns that are not functioning, etc. as soon as the problem is discovered. Motor vehicle traffic mixing with bicycle and pedestrian traffic is a major concern on campus. Even though bicycles are required to follow the rules of the road, many bicycle operators fail to obey stop signs or signal when making turns. Likewise, pedestrians are apt to step off a curb and cross the street at any location. In either case, civil law favors the bicyclist or pedestrian because of the chance of serious injury being incurred by either when involved in an accident with a motor vehicle. Drivers of motor vehicles should never park or travel in a bicycle path or on a sidewalk and should always look for a bicyclist that may be passing on the right.

Motor vehicle drivers should always stop for pedestrians on a campus street, particularly those pedestrians in a crosswalk. Drivers of motor vehicles in a pedestrian traffic 6. area not only have a responsibility to be legal in regard to statutory rules of the road, but also have a responsibility to exercise due care to avoid colliding with any pedestrian upon any roadway.

Doc. No. EHSOM-16

Manual Handling To prevent injuries, •

Proper posture

•

Correct lifting techniques

•

Regular exercise

Followings are typical classification of Manual handling: 

Lifting / lowering,



Pushing / pulling,



Carrying,



Throwing / dropping / catching an object by the direct application of bodily force.

There are four significant points in a proper lift: Grip: A good grip makes maximum use of the palm of the hand, the ball of the thumb, and base of the fingers. Back: The back must be kept straight to maintain its most natural and strongest position. This means that the knees and ankles must be bent and the chin kept well into the chest.

The body must be positioned as close to the load as possible so as

to act as a counterweight. Feet: The feet should be apart the width of the hips with one foot slightly in front of the other so that a natural lead off is obtained. Arms: The arms must be kept as close as possible to the body

EHS OPERATIONAL MANUAL TITLE: PROCEDURE FOR MANUAL LIFTING/ HANDLING

Sheet No. 35 of 114

Proper Lifting 1. Plan your move. •

Size up the load and make sure pathway is clear.

•

Get help as needed.

•

Use a dolly or other device if necessary.

2. Use a wide-balanced stance with one foot slightly ahead of the other. 3. Get as close to the load as possible. 4. Tighten your stomach muscles as the lift begins. When lifting, keep your lower back in its normal arched position and use your legs to lift. Pick up your feet and pivot to turn – don't twist your back. 5. Lower the load slowly, maintaining the curve in your lower back. Your back can manage most lifts – if you lift correctly. Avoid lifting above shoulder height. This causes the back to arch, placing heavy stress on the small joints of the spine. Do not catch falling objects. Your muscles may not have time to coordinate properly to protect the spine.

Noise: •

Industrial deafness is caused by over exposure to high level of noise from plant, machinery or construction processes. Once a part of a persons hearing has been lost it can never be recovered. Deafness can also lead to further accidents on site with workers being unable to hear warning and other instructions.

•

For continuous exposure, i.e, for eight hours in any one-day, the sound level should not exceed 90 dB (A). For non- continuous exposure a calculated equivalent continuous sound level (Leq) should not exceed 90 dB (A). Workers should not be exposed to sound levels exceeding 90 dB (A) unless the\ are wearing suitable hearing protectors. which effectively reduce the sound level at the users ear to, or below,90 dB (A)

If Peak noise levels exceed 120d13(A) then the wearing of suitable hearing protectors shall he Mandatory. Consideration shall always he given first to reducing the noise level at source. Examples of noise reduction methods include:• More efficient silencers on compressors and maintenance of exhaust systems: • Fitting acoustic lining to machinery panels: • Use of Acoustic screens and EHSds to protect other • Sitting of noisy plant away from the workplace,

Where it is possible to reduce the noise level to which the worker is exposed. the workers shall be provided with suitable and sufficient hearing protection to protect them .All the workers affected shall be properly trained in the use of the Hearing Protection and that adequate supervision is provided to ensure its proper use.

The Concerned department head shall review the activities and required resources. It will be ensured that wherever possible recycling reuse of the material is done so that the natural resources such as energy, water, paper, iron and steel are used in a conservative manner. Energy usage: Ensure that any electrical gadgets are switched off when not required. In the offices all lights and fans will be switched off when not required. Use daylights to the maximum extent. Use 28 / 36 watt tubes and CFL’s instead of bulbs. Only required DG sets will be operated depending on the load requirements. The work will be planned in such a way that there is maximum usage of power generated based on the load requirements. Do not keep your machinery in idle running conditions. Ensure that maintenance is being carried out from time to time. Water usage: Remember, Water is precious; use it judiciously and only as required If you find a tap running unnecessarily/ leaking, close it – every drop is precious Check the valves, joints, taps, pumps etc. checked at least half yearly for leakages/ problems and rectify it at the earliest. Ensure that there is no overflowing from tanks / reservoirs. Mop floors with wet cloth instead of washing with water. Control the flow rate of valves / water in toilets & taps while usage. Clean utensils, cups & diEHSs etc. with minimum quantity of water; soak it in water for some time before washing. While cleaning of the empty containers, drums etc. ensure that minimum quantity is used; take care there is minimum spillage and no unnecessary wastage. Use water sprinkling / drip for watering of plants.

Doc. No. EHSOM-31


Where possible water will be recycled. Any water leaving the premises will be collected in a pit so that it can be utilized for dust suppression for spraying on the road.

Iron and Steel: Any scrap generated will be disposed off for recycling, but before disposal it will be reviewed for any possibility of usage. Check for the material specifications before start of work so that maximum utilization of bars / pieces / rods can be made.

Paper :

Reduce Paper Consumption Use email for communication to the extent possible. Check the final draft of documents in the computer. Check the printer and page settings before taking any printout. Avoid draft prints to the extent possible. Make use of both sides of writing pads. Reuse Paper Reuse one sided used papers for rough work. Recycle Paper Throw waste paper in the waste paper baskets only. Destroy paper through shredding if confidential. These would be emptied out by housekeeping into the waster paper baskets for further recycling. Collect Magazines, Newspapers at identified location and sale them for further recycling and reuse. At branch locations, paper is sold to interested parties for further recycling and reuse.

33.3 Noise and vibration Monitoring & Management Plans:

Administrative noise control measures Where it is not practicable to comply with the exposure standard for noise solely through other control measures, administration control measures are used. These measures reduce the noise to which a person is exposed by means of work arrangement, including 

Organizing schedules so that noisy work is done when, as few people as

possible are present. 

Notifying people in advance when noisy work is to be carried out, so they can

limit their exposure to it. 

Keeping people out of noisy area, if their job does not require them to be there.



Sign posting noisy areas



Periodic rotation of persons working in excessive noisy area shall be carried out.

Personal hearing protectors Personal hearing protectors shall be used only as an interim measure while control of excessive noise is being achieved by engineering control measures. The removal of personal hearing protectors for even short periods of time can significantly reduce their effectiveness and result in inadequate protection. Due to the difficulties of wearing personal hearing protectors for long periods of time in certain environments, regular brief periods in quiet areas, without personal hearing protectors, should be allowed. Hearing Protection Areas Areas where people may be exposed to excessive noise should be sign-posted, as ‘hearing protection areas’ and their boundaries should be clearly defined. No person, including visitors, managers and supervisors, should enter a hearing protection area during normal operation, unless wearing appropriate personal hearing protectors.


Doc. No. EHSOM-33


This is regardless of how long the person spends in the hearing protection area. Where sign posting is not practicable, attach prominent warning notices to tools and equipment indicating that personal hearing protectors must be worn when operating them.
