SAFETY AND HEALTH

PROGRAM

MANAGEMENT LEADERSHIP
Management leadership is vital to the success of this safety and
healthy program. It lays the foundation upon which this program is
established.
In accord with the concept of the worth of very
individual human life is always placed to the highest value. Top
management is committed towards accident prevention and control
and takes lead in establishing sound safety practices. The success of
this program emanates from top management's announced and
demonstrated interest in safety to obtain employee cooperation and
participation.
GENERAL POLICY
It is the general policy of a contractor to perform work in the safest
manner possible consistent with good construction practices. To fulfill
the requirements of this policy, an organized and effective Safety and
Health Plan as described in this manual and in consonance with DOLE
Occupational Safety and Health Standards must be carried out on
every project.
PURPOSE AND SCOPE
The purpose of the safety program is to assist management in the
development of a plan designed to protect the employees and to
increase production by the prevention and control of accidents and
risks which involves elements such as manpower, material, machinery
and tools, equipment and time. In compliance to the program, a
practical, sound and effective plan for the prevention of and response
to accidents shall be established.
Specific responsibilities to
management and supervision down to the least of the workers shall be
assigned. For the program to be abreast with the Current Safety
standards and regulations and technical advancements, review and
revision shall be conducted as may be required.
All employees, visitors, subcontractors, vendors/suppliers, etc. shall
comply with this safety program while on the work site.
Since accidents usually result from the same deficiencies that
adversely affect productivity, costs, employee and public relations, the
safety record is a reliable guide to the general effectiveness of
supervision. An efficient operation is one, which gets out the most
production at the lowest cost. Whenever unsafe conditions or unsafe

work methods require workers to pay less attention to production


because they must spend more time trying not to be injured, or when
accident occurs, the operation is that much less efficient. A safe
operation is an efficient operation.
It must be made certain that
every employee knows this.
PROGRAM EFFECTIVENESS
The Project Safety and Health Program will be effective as a result of
the active participation and personal cooperation of all employees at
all levels and the positive coordination of their efforts in carrying out
the following responsibilities:

The proper planning of all work to minimize personal injury,


property damage and loss of productive efforts.
Establishing and maintaining a system for early detection and
correction of unsafe practices and conditions.
Providing adequate protection of adjacent public, private and
government properties to provide for their safety.
Investigating accidents and safety incidents to determine cause,
and taking necessary corrective actions.
Establishing and implementing safety education programs
designed to stimulate and maintain the interest and active
participation of all personnel involved with the project. Such
program shall include;
Safety meetings and safety communications
Use of accident trends and causal analysis to preclude
recurrence of similar incidents
Use of proper work procedures, personal protective
equipment and mechanical guards
Safety instruction to individual employees and group safety
training programs
Maintenance of records, accidents, claims, losses and
development of accident loss experience summaries.

JOB HAZARD AND RISK ANALYSIS AND PREVENTION
Construction is a dynamic process, it is an ever changing process in
physical and environmental forms until the construction project is
completed.
The purpose of a job hazard analysis is to develop a preliminary
hazard analysis on work operations as to their potential for injury,
property damage or both.
Once potential hazards have been
identified, procedures can be developed to eliminate or mitigate their
potential for occurrence.
Benefits of the job hazard analysis will be;
Potential for injury or property damages could be prevented and
or eliminated.
Identified hazards could be used as a tool in the foresight of
scheduled activities.
Necessary safety precautions could be planned.
Job procedures and construction methods could be adjusted or
improved.
Provides training.
Increases awareness.
It must be made a policy that during the planning stages of each
project, activities that require job hazard analysis are identified.
Further work operations requiring job hazard analysis may be
identified during the weekly look ahead or foresighted activities,
during safety meetings or joint Labor-Management safety committee
audits/meetings.

The personnel responsible in developing the job hazard analysis for


every project are as follows;

Project Manager or Designated Representative (usually the


project safety engineer)
Safety Manager
Project-in-Charge/superintendent
Foremen/leadmen
Employee representative

The procedure for the implementation of the safety hazard analysis

EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN


There is a logical sequence of steps to follow in the event of a jobsite
emergency. The primary objective is to minimize life threatening
situations. Therefore, it is of the utmost importance that the situation
is properly identified and the full extent of the emergency is
addressed. This information is vital, not only to the projects plan of
action, but also to responding personnel and or agencies. Although
there will always be a certain amount of indecision and confusion, the
intent is to minimize this as much as possible.
The following
guidelines have been developed to cover the basics for most, but not

personnel are familiar with the proper steps to take and that
telephone numbers are current. The emergency procedures will be
posted on the bulletin board. All emergency procedures will be
reviewed and approved by the Project Manager.
Emergency procedures and actions required shall be included in
employee indoctrination and discussed regularly with supervisory
personnel and at toolbox safety meetings.

EMERGENCY PLAN IMPLEMENTATION


Should emergency occur, the most senior supervisor on site shall;

Immediately secure the area and implement the emergency action


plan.
According to the situation, the person in charge will
delegate authority and assure the safety of those responding.
Ensure notification of the Safety Engineer and/or Safety Manager.
Provide information regarding the emergency to rescue personnel
and project management representatives only. Questions from the
press and media will be referred to the Project Manager.

equipment can cause danger.
All places where workers come in contact with dangerous moving
parts of machinery or equipment.
Location of fire alarms and fire fighting equipment.
Instruction on the usage of specific construction equipment.

Standards of DOLE, records of accidents and illness shall be kept and
maintained open at all times for inspection by authorized personnel.
The following guidelines will be implemented for recordable injuries
and illnesses.
An immediate investigation will be completed by crew supervision,
foremen/leadmen. The investigation process shall be supervised by
the project construction superintendent and project safety engineer.
The Safety Manager will review the investigation report and assist as
needed.
The project manager will report in writing to the owner. A narrative
of the accident details and what was done or is being done to prevent

recurrence. This written report may be preceded by a telephone call


for possible representation of the owner. The narrative report will
include the following information;

accident or experiences a near miss that could have caused serious
personal injury or property damage, work will be stopped and a mass
safety meeting be conducted. Emphasis at these meetings shall be on
what can be done to prevent another occurrence.
SAFETY INSTRUCTION AND TRAINING
To assure that all personnel are aware of the hazards involved in the
project and ensure that they are informed of their individual
responsibilities in carrying out their assignments in a manner as
efficient and accident free as possible.
