3)

Safety Awareness :
The underlying cause accidents, injuries and incidents is invariably a lack of Safety Awareness linked with
unsafe behaviour.
Safety awareness is;

Being alert to what you are doing and what is going on around you.
Identifying potential hazards and taking the appropriate precautions to minimise and eradicate the risk.
Something everyone has to learn if he or she is to stay injury free
Part of every employees job, Everyone should carry out a Self Assessment and use Total Observation to;
Think about how you have done similar jobs in the past.
Think about how you are doing or planning to do the job now.
Compare the two operations with how the job should be done safely.
Look at everything that is taking place around you and anything that could pose a hazard to you.
Look above, below, behind and inside. Use the questioning Attitude to ask.
Have any people been injured doing this particular job ?
What injuries could occur if the unexpected happens ?
On, what I am doing will it affect other people ?
Do I have the authority, have I been trained, am I capable of doing the job ?
Do I need to wear or am I wearing the correct Personnel Protective Equipment ?
Eye Injuries :

- There have been a few entries in the accident books that relate to injuries to the eyes.
- Most of these injuries could have been avoided if the operatives had been wearing
goggles as proposed to safety glasses

- With immediate effect, Sub-Contractor Management insists that all personnel working inside the Process Plant wear
Safety Goggles /Glass at all times.
- If the housekeeping at the worksite is poor or if there is a long standing dust hazard
operatives are encouraged to report the matter to their supervisor.
6.8

Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE) :

The minimum standard of Personnel Protective Equipment is

- Head Projection,
The Process Plant is a designated Hard Hat site so safety helmets must be worn in all
the plant area. You must change your helmet if it is damaged in any way.

- Body Protection.
Protective clothing that is the right size, suitable for the job and properly maintained
must be worn all time at the Process Plant. Overalls must be made from 100% cotton.

- Safety Footwear
Safety Footwear must be worn at all times in all plant areas. The most common type of safety footwear is the safety
boot or shoe. It is recommended that they are fitted with at least a 200 joule toe-cap.

- Eye and face Protection (Note : eye injuries)

The wearing of eye protection is mandatory on all Process areas, workshops, Fabrication
yards and fire training ground. Eye protection is also recommended on roadways adjacent to process units.
Face shields or visors and/or specialist equipment (such as air-fed welding hoods) must be worn depending on the
application or as dictated by Client Operation/Work Permit..

Page 6

AES-VCM
METHOD STATEMENT FOR GROUNDING (EARTHING) AND CAD WELDING WORKS

- Hearing Protection
Adequate hearing protection must be worn at all times in the designated high noise areas.
Audits are finding lots of people not wearing ear defends in the high noise areas. There are two types of ear defenders
available for use i.e muffs fitted to the helmet and ear plugs which fit inside the ear canal.
- Hand Protection
Personnel working on site are likely to be expose to a number of hazards i.e. thermal, mechanical, chemical and vibration.
Where there is a risk of contact with one or more of these hazards then the appropriate protective gloves must be worn.
- Good Housekeeping.
Poor housekeeping and untidy working is a MAJOR source of accidents and injuries.
Sub-contractor is expected to clean up and debris created and after every job. Stop work and tidy up if the work area
is becoming cluttered and ensure that you take time out at the end of every work period to do some housekeeping.
Persistent untidy workers cannot be tolerated.
Housekeeping audits are being conducted on a daily basis by both Sub-contractor and CLIENT management
and the auditors will be looking at the following area.

- Hose and cable discipline i.e. trailing hoses and cables that do not restrict access egress, passage ways or roadways.
- Oil and process spill. Any liquid should be contained in dams or soaked up with proprietary absorbent materials such
as Spillsorb or soak-up before disposal in the approved manner. Solids and dusts should be either dampened
down or vacuumed up as soon as possible.
- Insulation and scaffolding debris. This material should be removed as soon as possible and disposed of in the approved
area.

- Engineering and General Debris. To be removed as soon as possible and disposed of the approved area, meanwhile, it
must be stored in a tidy manner.

- Elevated platforms, stairways, and access ways free from debris and/or obstruction. Tools and equipment must be positioned
so that they cannot be fall onto people working below.

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Use dry sand, graphite, dolomite, sodium chloride, water spray or chemical foam.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES
Firefighters must wear full facepiece self - contained breathing apparatus in positive pressure mode.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Thermoweld copper base welding/joining materials are exothermic mixtures, which when reacted, produce hot
molten materials with temperatures in excess of 4000 F and a localized release of smoke. The materials are not explosive, ignition temperatures are in excess of
850 F for starting material and 1750 F for base material. They are not shock sensitive, nor are they subject to spontaneous ignition. Should the material be
accidentally ignited, the immediate and direct application of large volumes of water will effectively retard the spread of fire and control it. Large amounts of dense,
dusty smoke will be liberated during an accidental fire.

SECTION 5 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Confine and segregate product for reuse; place material into approved containers for
disposal; for spills in excess of allowable limits (RQ) notify the National Response Center refer to CERCLA 40 CFR 302 for detailed instructions; refer to SARA
Title III, Section 313, 40 CFR 372 for reporting requirements. Do not discharge into lakes, ponds, streams or public waters.

SECTION 6 - HANDLING AND STORAGE

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE: Storage of Thermoweld Exothermic materials should be in a clean dry area and restricted to
access by authorized personnel only. Do not subject to rough handling or physical damage, nor excessive vibration. Store in accordance with "This Side Up"
labels. Protect from weather and moisture. DO NOT USE PRODUCTS THAT HAVE BEEN EXPOSED TO MOISTURE. Before using Thermoweld Exothermic
Process, personnel should be trained by a Thermoweld representative. Read and understand the instruction sheet packaged with the mold, and observe all
general and safety instructions.

SECTION 7 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (SPECIFY TYPE): NIOSH approved respirator designed to remove airborne particulate present in excess of maximum allowable
concentrations due to secondary operations such as mixing, spraying, sanding, buffing, etc. Refer to 29 CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149 for
regulations.
