b. Activities of all persons having access to the workplace and including visitors and contractors, c. Human behavior, capabilities and other human factors, d. Identified hazards originating outside the workplace capable of adversely affecting the health and safety of persons under the control of the company within the workplace, e. Hazards created in the vicinity of the workplace by work-related activities under the control of the company, f.

Infrastructure, equipment and materials at the workplace, whether provided by the company or others,

The QMS / EMS / OHS steering team identifies the personnel responsible for assignments dealing with specific hazard identification, risk assessment, and controls determination. These personnel are responsible to perform the assignments and report the findings on the risk management worksheet, F-431-005. Define and Plan the Risk Management Project A program leader and program team members are identified by the QMS / EMS / OHS steering team. The program leader initiates the project using the risk management worksheet for Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and Determination of Controls, F-431005. The initial inputs are taken from the initial review results as performed with procedure 18AP-412 and reported on checklists F-412-001 for office and F-412002 for site . The inputs focus on the items identified as “Need Attention�. The information for the items is transferred to the first two columns of the risk management worksheet, F-431-005. Describe the Hazards The Program Team members record the details in F-431-005 and describe the hazard by using the guidewords. Examples of typical physical, chemical, biological, and psychosocial hazards are provided in attachment A-431-010. Procedures Manual Occupational Health & Safety Date printed 8/30/12 6:05 PM

PROCEDURES MANUAL OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH & SAFETY

Issued: SD Checked: WF Approved: HF

Assess the risk Initial assessment of risk is then identified by looking at the risk matrix in F-431005 After application of mitigating measures the residual risk is assessed by looking at the risk matrix. When determining controls, consideration is given to reducing risks according to the following hierarchy: a.

elimination,

b.

substitution,

c.

engineering controls,

d.

signage / warnings and / or administrative controls,

e.

personal protective equipment.

With the inputs available and the category of residual risk (Low/Moderate/High) the team decides whether or not the process item is at risk and the work shall proceed. A NO decision indicates that the work cannot proceed and the project leader issues a corrective action request to provide the necessary controls and health and safety improvement. A YES decision indicates that the item is a low priority item and no action is required and the work can proceed. A NO decision recognizes that the item is a high priority item and becomes a candidate for OH&S program per procedure 18MP-434 and such programs become candidates for Operational controls per procedure EHMP-446. Once the CAR is adequately addressed and the decision is converted to YES the work can proceed. Track and Report Reassessments and risk closures are done with follow ups at the steering team meetings. The OHS steering team tracking includes:

9

a.

Identifying new risk management projects

b.

Reassessing each risk on a periodic basis

c.

Closing risks

d.

Adjusting corrective action / mitigation plans or developing new plans

e.

Adjusting schedules and budgets.

Issued: SD Checked:WF Approved: HF

To manage the monitoring and measurement activities and to follow up on the improvement, corrective and preventive actions taken as a result of EMS and OH&S action reports, a Register Reg-450 introduced with this procedure covers the following: •

PRR

- Public response reports, form F-443-002, per EHAP-443

IR

- Investigation reports, form F-447-002, per EHMP-447

AR

- Alert reports, form F-451-002, per EHQP-451

NCR

- Non-conformance reports, form F-453-002, per EHQP-453

CAR

- PDCA corrective action requests, form F-852-001, per QEH-QP-852

5.2

The main EMS / OH&S action report is the non-conformance report (NCR), F-453-002. The NCR is used to as an investigative tool where the above public response reports (PRR), the investigation reports (IR), and the alert reports (AR) are further investigated to implement required corrective and preventive actions.

5.3

The normal processing, follow up and tracking of the required reports follow the same practice. The above reports and requests are co-coordinated by the QMS / EMS / OHS management representative and issued to the responsible heads of departments, as applicable to the Managing Director, Project Manager and Operations, to communicate to personnel involved the need to determine the causes of non conformities. 5.3.1 CAR.

The Register, Reg-450 is used to manage the various action reports where sections are set up to house the report categories for above PRR, IR, AR, NCR, &

5.3.2 Actions reports along with a description of the condition needing to be corrected are directed to an assigned individual or the person responsible for the area where the incident occurred or the condition is present. 5.3.3

The responsible individual applies the P-D-C-A guidelines, ref attachment form A-500-003 for continual improvement to the reported problem, investigates the cause of the reported problem, evaluates and proposes the action to be taken to ensure that it will not recur and provides a promise date for implementation.

5.3.4

On or immediately after the due date for implementation of corrective action, the QMS / EMS / OHS management rep in consultation with other individuals involved determines if the action has been implemented and is effective. If more work is required to fully implement the action, a new follow up date is established. 5.3.5

Active action reports are placed in the relevant active section of the register and are reviewed and followed up by the QMS / EMS / OHS management rep or a delegate to ensure that the corrective and improvements actions are fully addressed. 5.3.6

Completed action reports are placed in the relevant completed section of the register. The cumulative action reports for each report category and filed by date of issue for both the active and completed sections of the register become a composite log/list for such reports. 5.4

Action reports are retained as records per QEH-AP-424 control of records. These records are confidential and are not made available to anyone outside the company including

Action reports as organized in register Reg-450 are reviewed as part of the internal audits, per QEH-QP-822. The audits provide an independent review and a measure of the effectiveness for the corrective and preventive actions taken to address both environmental and health and safety issues. 5.6

Active action reports as maintained in the register by the QMS/EMS/OHS Management rep are reviewed at the scheduled management review meetings per QEH-AP-560 or at the call of the Managing Director.
