 Integrating HSE in how we do business
 Improving HSE performance in all our activities
 Demonstrating the importance of HSE through hands-on leadership and behaviour
 Openness in all HSE issues and active engagement with stakeholders.
How we work
 We take responsibility for our own and others’ safety and health.
 We work systematically to understand and manage risk.
 We provide employees, contractors and/or agents with necessary resources,
equipment and training to deliver according to designated responsibilities.
 We cooperate with our contractors and suppliers based on mutual respect.
 We stop unsafe acts and operations.
 We apply clean and efficient technologies to reduce the negative environmental
impact of existing operations.
 We aim for a safe and attractive working environment characterized by respect, trust
and cooperation.
 We monitor our people’s health in job-related risks.
 We establish work processes, goals and performance indicators to control measure
and improve them.
 We run HSE improvement processes based on audits and risk assessments.
Set and Review
Organizational Objectives

Management by Objectives (MBO) starts with clearly defined strategic organizational


objectives, expressed in concise, easily understood Mission and/or Vision Statements.
These mission and/or vision statements should contain specific goals. Vague goals such as
"improving customer satisfaction" may mean little to team members; and they're also difficult
to measure. A better objective is to "reduce customer complaints by 90 percent."
This objective is exciting because it's challenging, and it's much easier to measure.

Safety Audits
Branch Managers can use the safety audit to help identify and correct regulatory problems and
compliance with internal policy, which can improve workplace safety, and help reduce
IWLPL ’ liability.
An audit can serve as an educational tool. It can increase employee awareness and
understanding of environmental and safety regulations. The audit process can also be an
opportunity to demonstrate IWLPL ’ commitment to compliance.
An audit can identify ways to improve the efficiency and cost- effectiveness of the compliance
program. Regulatory agencies and criminal prosecutors may view workplace audits
favourably. A thoroughly completed audit with proper follow-up can signal that IWLPL ’ is
making a good-faith effort to comply with applicable regulatory requirements.

IWLPL ’ Internal Audits


IWLPL ’ Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) Audit Team performs formal audits at
selected branch locations. The Vice President of Operations leads an audit team process
comprised of operational and functional representatives selected by the Director of
Integration.
Audit Process

Each year IWLPL ’ policy sections and specific target areas of improvement (AOI) are
selected for possible auditing by the HSE Audit Team based on:

 each branch locations past safety, health, and environmental


performance, and
 each branch locations effectiveness at collision and injury
prevention efforts and activities, and
 each branch locations ability to properly manage the carrier
qualification process

An annual audit schedule is developed between the HSE Audit Team


and field operations management and outlines:
 which policy sections and/or AOI’s will be audited, and
 when the audits will occur.
Pre-Audit Process

Prior to the formal audit, the field HSE Audit Team conducts a pre- audit of the branch to
determine which policy sections or AOI’s require a full audit. This pre-audit is completed by:

 using site visits to assess areas of non-compliance;


 reviewing results of self-audits;
 reviewing the branches ability to properly manage the carrier qualification process
 interviewing employees and managers to assess the effectiveness of process
implementation;
 reviewing collision, injury, and environmental incident investigation and corrective
action plans; and
 conducting a review of the locations overall implementation of the IWLPL
Health, Safety and Environmental processes.

The pre-audit is used to determine which policy sections and/or AOI’s must be audited during
the formal audit process. If deemed appropriate by the Director of Integration, the results of
the pre-audit may be shared with the branch prior to the formal audit.

Formal Audit Process

After the pre-audit is completed and a determination is made regarding which policy sections
and/or AOI’s will receive a full audit, the field HSE Audit Team is responsible for:
 scheduling the format audit, and
 gathering any required information in preparation of the audit.

Formal audits expand on the requirements in each policy section and must include:

verification that IWLPL ’ safety, health, and environmental procedures, processes, and
policies are implemented, working, and will remain effective following the formal audit; and

 verification that branch management is adhering to IWLPL ’


carrier qualification procedures;
 observations made by the audit team during the formal audit;
and
 recommendations to correct deficiencies observed during the
auditing process.

Post Audit Process

Upon completion of the formal audit, the audit team meets with branch management to present
the results of the audit and communicate the post-audit responsibilities.
A copy of the final formal audit results are provided to the branch manager. Within 30 days,
the HSE Audit team must complete a corrective action plan to address deficiencies observed
during the audit. The corrective action plan must include:
 a detailed description of the actions planned to correct each
deficiency,
 a due date for each corrective action, and
 the name of the person responsible for implementing the
corrective action.

The Audit team is responsible for tracking each corrective action to completion and providing
regular updates to the Director of Integration and Vice President of Operations.

Evaluate and Reward Performance

Evaluation System

MBO is designed to improve performance at all levels of the organization. To ensure that this
happens, you must have a comprehensive evaluation system in place.

Give constructive, thorough feedback to all employees on their goals and on IWLPL ’ goals.

Remember the participative principle

When you present companywide results, you have another opportunity to link specific
individual and group achievements to corporate performance. Ultimately, this is what MBO is
all about and it explains how, when done right, it can spur companywide performance and
productivity.

Once your team members have met their goals, you can reward them in several ways.
• A simple "thank you" for a job done well will go a long way,
• you can highlight their achievements to the group, and
• you can compensate them strategically for the work that they do.
When you reward goal achievers, you send a clear message to everyone that goal attainment is
valued.

Repeat the Cycle

When reviewing these objectives and goals and creating new ones, ask for feedback from employees on what
went well and what could be improved, consider environmental factors, and take into account your team's past
performance.
Personal Protective Equipment Policy
The purpose of the Personal Protective Equipment Policies is to protect the
employees of IWLPL from exposure to work place hazards and the risk of
injury through the use of personal protective equipment (PPE). PPE is not a
substitute for more effective control methods and its use will be considered only
when other means of protection against hazards are not adequate or feasible.

Personal protective equipment will be provided, used, and maintained when it


has been determined that its use is required to ensure the safety and health of
our employees and that such use will lessen the likelihood of occupational
injury and/or illness.

IWLPL will utilize Job Safety Analysis questionnaires to initially determine


which specific jobs will require the use of PPE and will conduct periodic
reviews to audit compliance and also identify areas where job requirements
have changed which may impact the type of PPE required

The IWLPL Personal Protective Equipment Policies includes:

 Responsibilities of supervisors and employees


 Hazard assessment and PPE selection
 Employee training
 Cleaning and Maintenance of PPE

PPE POLICY
Risk Management is responsible for the development, implementation, and administration
of IWLPL ’ PPE policies. This involves

Conducting workplace hazard assessments to determine the presence of hazards which


necessitate the use of PPE.
Selecting and purchasing PPE.
Reviewing, updating, and conducting PPE hazard assessments whenever
o a job changes

o new equipment is used

o there has been an accident

o a supervisor or employee requests it

o or at least every year

o Maintaining records on hazard assessments.

o Maintaining records on PPE assignments and training.


o Providing training, guidance, and assistance to supervisors and
employees on the proper use, care, and cleaning of approved PPE.
o Periodically re-evaluating the suitability of previously selected PPE.

o Reviewing, updating, and evaluating the overall effectiveness of PPE use,


training, and policies.
Supervisors
Supervisors have the primary responsibility for implementing and enforcing PPE use and
policies in their work area. This involves

o Providing appropriate PPE and making it available to employees.

o Ensuring that employees are trained on the proper use, care, and cleaning
of PPE.
o Ensuring that PPE training certification and evaluation forms are signed.

o Ensuring that employees properly use and maintain their PPE, and follow
IWLPL PPE policies and rules.
o Notifying IWLPL management and the Vice President of Risk
Management when new hazards are introduced or when processes are
added or changed.
o Ensuring that defective or damaged PPE is immediately disposed of and
replaced.

Employees
The PPE user is responsible for following the requirements of the PPE policies. This
involves

o Properly wearing PPE as required.

o Attending required training sessions.

o Properly caring for, cleaning, maintaining, and inspecting PPE as


required.
o Following IWLPL PPE policies and rules.

o Informing the supervisor of the need to repair or replace PPE.


Hazard Assessment for PPE

The Vice President of Risk Management in conjunction with Supervisors will


conduct a walk-through survey of each applicable work area to identify sources of
work hazards. Each survey will be documented using the Hazard Assessment
Certification Form, which identifies the work area surveyed, the person conducting
the survey, findings of potential hazards, and date of the survey. The Vice President
of Risk Management will keep the forms in the company business files.

The Vice President of Risk Management will conduct, review, and update the
hazard assessment for applicable PPE situations whenever

 a job changes
 new equipment or process is installed
 there has been an accident
 whenever a supervisor or employee requests it
 or at least every year
 Any new PPE requirements that are developed will be added into
IWLPL ’ PPE Policy.

Selection of PPE
Once the hazards of a workplace have been identified, Director of will
determine if the hazards can first be eliminated or reduced by methods other
than PPE, i.e., methods that do not rely on employee behavior. If such methods
are not adequate or feasible, then (Vice President of Risk Management or
designated person) will determine the suitability of the PPE presently available;
and as necessary, will select new or additional equipment which ensures a level
of protection greater than the minimum required to protect our employees from
the hazards. Care will be taken to recognize the possibility of multiple and
simultaneous exposure to a variety of hazards. Adequate protection against the
highest level of each of the hazards will be recommended for purchase.

All personal protective clothing and equipment will be of safe design and construction for
the work to be performed and will be maintained in a sanitary and reliable condition. Only
those items of protective clothing and equipment that meet IS and Factory Act standards.
Affected employees whose jobs require the use of PPE will be informed of the
PPE selection and will be provided PPE by IWLPL at no charge. Careful
consideration will be given to the comfort and proper fit of PPE in order to
ensure that the right size is selected and that it will be used.

Training
Any worker required to wear PPE will receive training in the proper use and care
of PPE before being allowed to perform work requiring the use of PPE. Periodic
retraining will be offered to PPE users as needed.
The training will include, but not necessarily be limited to, the following
subjects:
 When PPE is necessary to be worn
 What PPE is necessary
 How to properly don, doff, adjust, and wear PPE
 The limitations of the PPE
 The proper care, maintenance, useful life, and disposal of the PPE

After the training, the employees will demonstrate that they understand how to
use PPE properly, or they will be retrained. Training of each employee will be
documented using the Personal Protective Equipment Training Documentation
and kept on file. The document certifies that the employee has received and
understood the required training on the specific PPE he/she will be using.
Retraining
The need for retraining will be indicated when
 an employee’s work habits or knowledge indicates a lack of the necessary
understanding, motivation, and skills required to use the PPE (i.e., uses PPE
improperly)
 new equipment is installed
 changes in the work place make previous training out-of-date
 changes in the types of PPE to be used make previous training out-of-date

Cleaning and Maintenance of PPE

It is important that all PPE be kept clean and properly maintained. Cleaning is
particularly important for eye and face protection where dirty or fogged lenses could
impair vision. Employees must inspect, clean, and maintain their PPE according to
the manufacturers’ instructions before and after each use. Supervisors are responsible
for ensuring that users properly maintain their PPE in good condition.

Personal protective equipment must not be shared between employees until it has been
properly cleaned and sanitized. PPE will be distributed for individual use whenever
possible.
If employees provide their own PPE, make sure that it is adequate for the work place
hazards, and that it is maintained in a clean and reliable condition.
Defective or damaged PPE will not be used and will be immediately discarded
and replaced.

NOTE: Defective equipment can be worse than no PPE at all. Employees would
avoid a hazardous situation if they knew they were not protected; but they would get
closer to the hazard if they erroneously believed they were protected, and therefore
would be at greater risk.
It is also important to ensure that contaminated PPE which cannot be decontaminated is disposed of in a
manner that protects employees from exposure to hazards.

IWLPL believes that a safety and health Accident Prevention Program is


unenforceable without some type of disciplinary policy. Our company believes that
in order to maintain a safe and healthful workplace, the employees must be
cognizant and aware of all company, State, and Federal safety and health
regulations as they apply to the specific job duties required. The steps outlined in
the Disciplinary Policy will be applied to all safety and health violations.

Violations

 Non-Serious Safety Violations: A violation has direct


relationship to safety and health where the exposure is likely to
or does cause physical harm or equipment damage.
 Serious Safety Violations: If, in the judgment of management,
including on-site supervisors, the violation involves imminent
danger to his/her self or others, equipment damage or work
sabotage.

Discipline Action

 Non-Serious Safety Violations:


o A first time violation will be discussed orally between company
supervision and the employee. This will be done as soon as
possible.
o A second time offense will be followed up in written form and a
copy of this written documentation will be entered into the
employee’s personnel folder.
o A third time violation will result in time off or possible
termination, depending on the seriousness of the violation.

 Serious Safety Violations:


o An employee found to have a serious safety violation will be
terminated after a thorough investigation of the circumstances.
An employee may be suspended while this investigation is
conducted.
o A supervisor is responsible for physically inspecting the work
space of each employee. Noted concerns shall be addressed
immediately.

Reporting of Accidents, Incidents, corrective and preventive action

1.0 Purpose
To ensure that all HSE accidents and incidents are reported, investigated
and actions taken so as to prevent their re-occurrence

2.0 Scope
All operation sites, facilities & offices of IWLPL.

3.0 Definitions

1. Accident: Any event which results in harm to personnel, damage to


property, production loss or causes damage to the environment.
2. Company Employee: Any person employed directly by the company
including those on contract.
3. Contractor Personnel: Any person employed by a Contractor or
Contractor’s Sub- Contractor(s) who are directly involved in execution
of prescribed work under contract with the Company. Workers in
fabrication yards of contractors or any other party located at any of the
BL sites come under this category. Fabrication yards of contractors / third
party not located in BL site premises shall not come under this category.
4. Environment: Surroundings and conditions in which an organisation
operates, or which it may affect, including all living systems, and other
biodiversity.
5. Environmental Effect: The direct or indirect effect, of an organisation’s
activity, products or services to the environment.
6. Fatality: Any work injury resulting in death of the individual irrespective
of the intervening period. Fatalities arising, for example, from natural
causes, suicide, or inexplicable personal behaviour shall be excluded
from this category.
7. Fire: Fire includes unintentional fire of any magnitude and unintentional
electric arc. All fires regardless of whether the fire was extinguished by
an extinguishing medium or self extinguished shall be reported as fires.
Fires with no visible flame
e.g. oil soaked insulation, pyrophoric fires, smoldering in coke/sulphur
piles or other self ignitable materials etc. are also included in this
category. The size and extent of damage shall not determine whether it
shall be classified as fire or not. Grass fires in the plant areas shall also
be included as they pose potential problems to the plant. However, fires
shall be classified as ‘Process /Plant Areas’ or ‘Non- Process /Non-Plant
Areas’.
Fires are further classified into ‘Major Fires’ and ‘Minor Fires’ as below.
8. First Aid Case (FAC): Work related injury that requires one time
treatment and subsequent observation (for example minor scratches,
burns, cuts, which do not ordinarily require medical care) and does not
result in a Medical Treatment Case (MTC).
9. Hazard: Potential to cause harm, including ill health or injury; damage
to property, plant or the environment;
10. Immediate Cause: Is the direct reason why an incident has occurred. It
can encompass unsafe conditions (which are not under the control of the
person in the workplace), as well as unsafe acts (which are under a
person's control).
11. Incident: Incident includes ‘Accident and Near Miss’; An Incident is an
event or a chain of events that has caused, or could have caused fatalities,
injuries, and/or damage to assets, the environment, or third parties.
12. Job Factor: Any circumstance that may cause or contribute to the
development of an unsafe condition.
13. Lost Time Injury (LTI): Any work related injury which results in a
person being unfit for work for a period of 48 hours or more immediately
following the occurrence of the occupational injury (as per the Indian
Factories Act,1948) “The period of 48 hours” includes rest days, weekend
days, leave days, public holidays or days after ceasing employment.
14. Medical Treatment Case (MTC): Medical treatment case is not LTI but
requiring medical treatment from a professional physician or qualified
medical person and MTC case is more than a First Aid.
As a guide a "yes" answer to any of the following questions (due to
work related injury) would be a medical treatment case:
i. Treatment of infection?
ii. Antiseptic during second or subsequent visits to medical personnel?
iii. Treatment for second or third degree burns?
iv. Application of sutures (stitches)?
v. Application of butterfly adhesive dressing?
vi. Removal of foreign body embedded in the eye?
vii. Complicated removal of foreign bodies from a wound?
viii. Use of Prescription medications?
ix. Cutting away of dead skin (surgical debridement)?
x. Application of heat therapy during second or subsequent visits?
xi. Positive X-ray diagnosis (fractures, broken bones, etc.)?
xii. Admission to a hospital for treatment (more than observation)?
15. Loss of Consciousness: If one loses consciousness as a result of a work-
related injury, even for a short period, the case must be considered as an
MTC.
16. Near Miss: A ‘Near Miss’ is an unplanned event, which under slightly
different circumstances could have resulted in harm.
17. Risk: Product of the chance that a specified undesired event will occur
and severity of the consequences of the event.
18. Spills/ leaks: Any loss of containment of hazardous, flammable or toxic
gas, liquid or solid. There is no difference between a leak and a spill. The
type of containment shall not determine whether to report or not - A spill
even in a bounded area on concrete floor shall be reported even though
there is no environmental impact. Spills are classified into ‘Major Spills
and ‘Minor Spills’ as below.
a. Major Spill: A spill of 500 litres / kg or more & needs to be reported.
b. Minor Spill: A spill less than 500 litres / kg but more than 5 litres /
kg, needs to be recorded for investigation
19. Release / seepage reaching outside plant boundary: Accidental release
of liquid hydrocarbons, contaminated / saline water or effluent which can
cause negative impact on company reputation should be considered as
spills.
20. Work Related Activity: A work related activity is an activity in a work
environment, which is or ought to be subject to management controls. All
incidents that occur in work related activities are reportable.

7.5 Major Gas Leak


Depending upon the size, nature, location and type of gas involved, it may
be necessary to evacuate all personnel from the site as the first response.
Should the Emergency Commander take this course of action the Evacuation
siren should be sounded and the site evacuated. Consideration will need to
be given immediately to ensuring that personnel are moved to a safe distance
up wind of the leak.

7.6 Natural Disasters (As applicable)


(Include information as necessary for the site, see example for earthquake:
If inside a building stay inside, take cover under a sturdy piece of furniture
such as a table or desk or crouch up against an internal wall and cover your
head with your arms. If on a structure such as the boiler get as close to a
major structural item as possible or under a vessel there may be a danger
of falling objects such as partially secured secondary steel work, pipes, pipe
supports, scaffolding etc, (the structure should have been designed to
withstand an earthquake) crouch down and keep your hard hat in position. If
outside stay outside, move away from buildings, structures and overhead
power lines.)
