locations or not meeting the above requirements will be confiscated and disciplinary action
will be taken.
9.3 Electric Welding
Personal protective equipment is mandatory for all employees while welding. This applies
23
SITE EHS PLAN
to the welder and any helpers. During arc welding, a welding helmet and the proper dark
lens shade must be worn. Other equipment that will be worn as needed includes flame
proof leather gloves, leggings and aprons.
Electrical Hazards
• The welding machine must be securely grounded.

• The electrode holder shall be specifically designed for its use, and have capacity
capable of carrying the maximum-rated current required by the electrodes in use.
The work leads must be of sufficient size also.
• The work leads will be checked for damaged insulation and secure attachment to
the welding machine.
• The ground lead must be securely attached and close to the work to prevent unwanted
arcing.
• Electrode holders left unattended shall not have a rod in them. Rod scraps shall be
disposed of properly.
• No splices are allowed in the work lead within10'of the electrode holder. (This does
not apply to an approved cable connector.)
• Never dip an electrode holder in water to cool it.
• The power supply to a welding machine shall be turned off if it is not used for any
“appreciable length of time”, or when it is to be moved.
Ultraviolet Radiation
The arc welding process produces harmful ultraviolet rays. If unprotected, it will burn
exposed skin and cause “flash burn to the eyes. As mentioned earlier, personal protective
equipment is required for the welder and helper. When possible a welding booth or
curtain shall be used to protect other workers from the ultraviolet rays. Remember, they do
not have to directly view the arc to be hurt by it.
Fire and Explosions
Arc and welding produces intense heat by high temperatures are possible and special
precautions need to be taken to prevent deadly fires and explosions.
• Never weld in an explosive atmosphere. If you suspect the presence of a gas, contact
management to have it checked out before proceeding with any work. Certain dusts
24
SITE EHS PLAN
such as grain and flour are also flammable.

• Never weld near stored ignitable materials or combustible debris. Never weld ona
drum or barrel unless it has been thoroughly cleaned of any previously contained
material, or is filled with water.
• Never weld on a compressed gas cylinder.
• When welding at a higher elevation, take precautions for falling sparks you produce.
• Always have adequate fire extinguishing equipment immediately available where you
are welding.
If necessary, have additional personnel stand fire watch while work is being performed.
Toxic Gases and Fumes
The welding process produces various exhaust gases and fumes, depending on the
materials you are working with. Simple precautions must be taken to avoid in halation
of toxic gases and fumes.
• Keep your head out of the fume path. Your welding helmet will also help protect your
breathing zone.
9.4 OXY-ACETYLENE CUTTING
The rules about personal protective equipment and fires and explosions that govern
welding also apply to oxy-acetylene cutting. Eye protection is mandatory for all
employees using the torch. Do not use the torch in explosive atmospheres or around
combustible materials. Do not cut in to an empty drum that previously contained
flammable gases or liquid unless it has been cleaned. Other rules relating to the use
of high-pressure gas bottles include:
• Before starting a torch project, the employee shall inspect the equipment. The
hoses, valves, couplings, and tip connections shall be checked for damage and
leaks.
• During transportation, storage, or when in use, a compressed gas cylinder must always
be secured in an upright position. This is especially important for acetylene bottles.
• Full or empty gas cylinders not in use shall have their valves shut and the valve
25
SITE EHS PLAN
protection cap screwed on.

• Never use high pressure compressed oxygen in a cylinder for ventilation, comfort
cooling, blowing dust from clothing, or cleaning your work area. Pure oxygen greatly
enhances the combustibility of any fuel and accelerates the burning process also, take
extra caution with oxygen bottles to see that the valve assembly on top is not
damaged by equipment or a fall. The very high pressure of the escaping oxygen in the
cylinder will propel it like a torpedo and destroy most anything in its path.
• Oxygen cylinders must have their valve opened all the way for use. Acetylene valves,
however, must be opened not more than 1½ turns so they can be quickly turned off
in an emergency. Valves that utilize a t wrench must have the wrench in place when
in use.
• Torches will be lit by strikers or friction lighters, not with matches, cigarettes, or from
hot work.
BASICRULES FOR OXY-ACETYLENE WELDING
• Blow out cylinder valve before you connect the regulator.

• Release the adjusting screw on the regulator before opening the cylinder valve.
• Stand to one side of regulator before you open the cylinder valve.
• Open cylinder valve slowly.
• Do not use or compress acetylene in a free state at pressures more than15psi g.
• Purge your acetylene and oxygen passages individually before lighting the torch.
• Light the acetylene before opening the oxygen non the torch.
• Never use oil or grease on regulators, tips, etc., in contact with oxygen.
• Do not use oxygen as a substitute for air.
• Keep your work area clear of anything that will burn.
9.5 Construction Vehicles
In addition to complying with the relevant standards & regulation requirements listed in
this manual, Company shall observe the following:
• All employees operating vehicles and the passengers in those vehicles are
required to wear seat belts at all times. Vehicles must have a firmly attached seat
26
SITE EHS PLAN
for each passenger except for vehicles exempted by the local authorities.
• Drivers must possess and carry a current, valid vehicle operator's license for the
type of vehicle used. Employees must be seated, with arms and legs inside of the
vehicle. Employees may mount or dismount vehicles only when fully stopped.
• When repair work or maintenance of any sort is performed on any vehicle, the
parking brake shall be set, the engine turned off and the wheels chocked to
prevent movement of the vehicle. The bucket or blade of forklifts, loaders and
backhoes shall be lowered when not in use.
All vehicles including mobile cranes and excavators used on site shall be equipped in
accordance with national and local laws and regulations. And require the following

• The operator must maintain and implement a daily inspection checklist and submit to
Maintenance/ EHS Department after completion of checklist.
• The maximum wind speed for safe compact crane use is 22 miles per hour/ 36 kilometres
per hour / 10 metres per second. When wind speeds are higher it becomes harder to keep
control hence all cranes must be stop the activity if wind speed is more than 10 meters per
second.
9.7 Lifting Equipment’s and lifting provisions
Where possible all steel members will be supplied pre-drilled for the use of bolt on lifting
bracket with design calculation certificate. This allows for the use of a single leg sling which
gives much better freedom of movement whilst lifting steel beams.
As with all equipment provided for Site operations, the lifting chain slings and lifting belts
and lifting brackets and bolts require pre-use tests. Additional to this the brackets require a
thorough examination every 12 months. Guidelines are listed below.
1. All lifting equipment must be accompanied by its current test certificate.
2. All lifting equipment must be hard stamped with its Safe working load and unique serial
number.
3. Lifting brackets must only be used as a single point lifting component or as attachment
components in a multiple leg lift using a lifting frame.
4. All lifting equipment’s are to be visually inspected daily for signs of wear and tear. And
replaced if required.

Note! Only use twin leg chains each single wrapped whenever turning
steel.
All lifting brackets must be returned for proof testing and thorough examination every 12
months or as and when required.
Before using it for the first time – unless the equipment has a Declaration of Conformity less
than one-year-old and was not assembled on Site. If it was assembled on Site, it must be
examined by a competent person to establish the assembly was correct and safe, e.g. site
cranes installed at Site.
Regularly in service if the equipment is exposed to conditions causing deterioration that is
likely to result in dangerous situations. If this applies to your equipment you have a choice.
You can arrange for the thorough examination to be carried out: - at regular intervals (either
at least every 6 months or 12 months depending on whether the lifting equipment is for
lifting people or not); or - in accordance with an examination scheme drawn up by a
competent person. Accessories for lifting must be thoroughly examined either at least every
4 months by internal and every twelve months by external competent person.
Lifting Equipment color code:
All lifting equipment e.g. chain block, lever block, shackle, web slings, wire rope sling, chain
sling including full body safety harness, must be inspected by area foremen/Supervisors on
monthly basis and color coded accordingly.

All lifting brackets must be returned for proof testing and thorough examination every 12
months.
If pre-drilled holes are not provided double leg slings must be used and in a manner that
they cannot slip: eg chocked or through service holes.
31
SITE EHS PLAN
Use packing for chain slings when lifting anything with sharp edges. Ensure that
the load is lifted off the ground to see that it is free and correctly slung before
hoisting
Do not bolt brackets designed for lifting beams to the splice plate holes,
They are not designed for that purpose and could lead to failure of the lifting
operation
Chandelier Lifts
Chandelier lifting is the lifting of 2 vertically-separated beams, using special lifting chains. It can be
used to lift 2 beams to be erected close to one another in most steel framed building, using a
Mobile/Tower Crane. The method reduces the total number of lifts on a project, thus reducing the
risks associated with lifting operations.
Equipment
• Chains to be used will comprise a special set provided JSW Severfield Structures Ltd. This will
comprise a long chain sling and a short chain sling attached to a master link for attachment
to the Crane Hook
• The short chain sling will have a small master link attached to the free end
• The long chain sling will have a closed hook attached to the free end.
• Standard Lifting Brackets for attachment to beams, complete with appropriate shackles.
Method
Beams are to be slung at Ground Level by operatives holding current Slinger/Signaler Competency Cards.

1. The correct Standard Lifting Brackets and chains, determined by the weight of the beam, will
be bolted to each beam. The type of bracket will be determined by the Site Supervisor.
2. The length of the long chain will have been determined. It will be of such a length as to
enable the lower beam to be fixed whilst the upper beam is above the higher level of steel.
3. The upper beam will be attached first using the master link on the short sling on to the
Lifting Bracket shackle.
4. The lower beam will be attached next using the closed hook on the long sling on to the
Lifting Bracket shackle.
5. The combined load will be lifted to a height that allows the lower beam to be moved into
place.
6. The lower beam will be fixed, and the long chain detached from the lower beam.
7. The upper beam will be lowered to a height that allows it to be moved into place.
8. The upper beam will be fixed, and the short chain detached from the upper beam.
9. Care must be taken after the chains have been released to ensure they do not snag the
steelwork.
Lifting of tubular steel bracing using a double wrapped webbed sling, it may be beneficial to lift
off center to aid fitment or use double sling and tag lines two both ends as per the fitment to
structure.
33
SITE EHS PLAN
Lifting Decking Packs using twin leg chains double wrapped with wrapped chain crossed
When lifting hot rolled steel sections which are set at an angle, the sling must be
double wrapped. Use chains with closed hooks and a piece of timber placed to
the underside of the member. The timber will ensure that the slings do not slip
Due to strong grip over it.
Make sure that the lifting equipment i.e.: chains and web slings are stored in the
correct manner, don’t leave them lying around in the mud, put them on a pallet.

11 Planning for Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and Risk control.
The management of EHS will incorporate a system for hazard identification, risk
assessment and risk control measures at construction sites through "five steps to risk
assessment system" methods. The five steps system consist of —
1. Identify Hazard - Identifying hazards, which could cause harm.

2. Assessing the risk out of identified hazard (H- High, M- Medium, L-Low risk) and finding
out significant risks by risk grading system.
3. Risk control- Deciding on suitable measures to eliminate or control risk.

4. Implementing & Maintaining risk control measures; &
5. Monitoring and reviewing the effectiveness of control measures.
The system will be applicable to the organization's construction sites considering
a. Routine and non-routine activities carried out by persons at construction sites, to

minimize risks and accidents. (Including those of sub-contractors and visitors).
b. Facilities will be made available at company's construction sites to control risks

efficiently for which reasonable measures will be undertaken.
c. Training and retraining to all those involved in organization's construction activities

for identifying hazards, risk assessment & risk control involved with their activities
prior to commencement of work.
d. The risk control measures will be effective like a barometer for monitoring safety
activities, project execution procedures, housekeeping, testing of plant and
equipment, occupational health surveys and internal and external audits.
The hazards related to identify with significant risks would be considered for setting
the safety objectives for the organization
36
SITE EHS PLAN
Risk Assessment and Control Measures

Depends on work activity we will submit the Risk assessment and control measures for the
each activity prior to start the job.
PPE Requirements

Legal & Other Requirements to meet the project compliance-
The EHS Dept. along with legal and HR department will identify the EHS related
statutory requirements and work towards its compliances. The compliance will be
maintained in the form of ROR (Register of Regulations/Legal Register) and will be made
available for reference.
a. The legal documents will be updated as and when required for including the amendments
or new legal requirements applicable to the organization. While updating the documents
help will be sought from government agencies, Bureau of Indian Standards and other
institutions associated with construction industry.
b. The documents will be available for reference to anyone who is associated with this
organization. The legal requirements will be communicated to concerned employees,
contractors and vendors for compliance.

compliance and attends the tool box talks on an unscheduled basis to ensure effectiveness. All
employees, engineers & supervisors to compulsorily attend tool box talk.
14 Work Access & Work place provisions
The provisions outlined below indicate the measures that could be in place to control the
principal risk of working at height.
Use of MEWP
All erectors to wear a IS marked approved safety harness at all working times on site unless
required to work at ground level only. During operation of man working access platforms
operatives will wear full harnesses. The harnesses will be attached to the anchorage point
within the platform at all times when in use. Safety harnesses will be attached at all times to
the approved anchorage point within a man hoist basket by means of a 1.5m overall length
fall arrest lanyard in accordance with JSW Severfield Structures ltd policy.
Familiarize yourself with the controls of any MEWP new to you or site; don’t immediately
think they are all the same.
When working close to bases, excavations or open edges ensure adequate protection is in
place so that you don’t drive into any openings, these can include fixed guarding, stop
blocks or a banks man. This information should be specified in the Method Statement.
39
SITE EHS PLAN
Whilst working in and around structural steelwork, no MEWP/SEWP operations are to be carried
out in isolation; the operator must be in visual, verbal contact with another trained MEWP
operator.
Machine to be properly rigged (outriggers out where necessary) and on level from ground.
Ensure that the safe working load of the machine is defined, and check that the SWL is never
exceeded.
Designated machine operators, and other operatives carrying out work from the basket of a
MEWP will be in possession of a recognized MEWP Operators Training Certificate.
Engineers (or similar non tradesman personnel) who do not possess MEWP training certificate
will only be allowed to work from a MEWP that is operated by a trained operative.
Don’t overload the basket or use it as a ram to move the steelwork and don’t work
directly above anyone else.
Midtrial Guidance
It is the policy of JSW Severfield Structures Ltd to use Mobile Elevated Work Platforms
(MEWPS) e.g. Cherry Pickers, as a preference to all other types of access equipment, in the
erection of steel structures.
As a general rule such equipment will be used in accordance with manufacturers and
suppliers instructions of use, and statutory regulations.
By standing on the mid-rail the main guard rail will be considerably below the minimum
height required.
However, there are such circumstances where the use of the midrail as a work platform is
permitted to avoid operatives having to access the work area off the open steelwork, but
only where such actions can be justified and controlled.
Limiting Factors
1. The basket or the MEWP itself cannot, so far as it is reasonably practicable, be safely
repositioned so as to provide better access.
40
SITE EHS PLAN
2. The structure itself must provide adequate fall protection equivalent to the requirement of
the standard 950mm as set out in the Work at Height Regulations (approx waist height) of
UK.
3. The horizontal gap between the basket and the structure shall not be greater than 300mm.
4. The mid rail and all the associated support structure for the rail shall be checked for
soundness immediately prior to the period of use. This shall include ensuring that the rail
and support structure is properly fixed, that the joint welds are not in any way fractured and
that the rail is not unduly bent or distorted. Any other ‘step up equipment’ shall also be ‘fit
for purpose’.
5. The Method statement (directly or via addendum or drawings) shall identify those places
where this allowance may apply.
6. The operator shall wear boots that are in good condition with pronounced cleats on the
soles such that a good grip can be achieved.
If any of the above factors cannot be ensured the use of the mid rail, or
any other ‘step up equipment’ used to gain access to any place of work,
is strictly prohibited.
If you are provided with any new piece of site plant equipment, including
different forms of MEWP’s make sure you get familiarization training.
Use of SEWP on floors if required
The development of the SEWP further reduces the need for operatives to access the open
steelwork and shows JSW Severfield Structures Ltd commitment to developing improved
methods of working.
The Static Elevated Work Platforms (SEWP) has been developed for use in the erection of
high rise steel framed buildings where access from a Mobile Elevated Working Platform is
not viable. The following restrictions on use are very similar to those as set out above in the
use of MEWPs.
All static elevated work platforms are operated by trained and experienced operatives.
41
SITE EHS PLAN
Whilst working in and around structural steelwork, no MEWP/SEWP operations are to be

carried out in isolation; the operator must be in visual, verbal contact with another trained
MEWP operator.
Site Supervisor/Foreman is to check SWL of basket is not being exceeded regularly.
All site managers are provided with information which details and flags up floor
areas which will not support the weight of the elevated platform (safety by
design).
Segregated work areas are monitored throughout the period of the contract.
All SEWP are to work from completed metal decked floors only and will generally
be supported on a minimum of 3 no. load bearing floor beams. (Basic controls in
place shown below).
1. The supporting beams of the SEWP must run parallel to the span of the decking.
2. The supporting beams of the SEWP must run in the troughs of the decking.
3. The SEWP supporting beams must not run perpendicular to the span of the decking.
4. The SEWP must be symmetrically placed so that its supporting beams span over a
minimum of THREE floor beams.
5. The SEWP must not be positioned where adjacent floor beams are more than 3m apart.
6. Where floor beams are at 3m centers, extension pieces to the SEWP supporting beams
must be attached.
Under certain controlled conditions the SEWP may be supported by 2no load bearing
floor beams. In these situations the positions of the SEWP shall be identified in the
original specifications. Signs shall be placed on the SEWP supporting beams
42
SITE EHS PLAN
highlighting where the SEWP shall be located in relation to the structural supporting
beams. These must be marked with the relevant Contract No in marker pen, and must
be removed prior to the SEWP being sent to a different site.
When used on poured concrete floors the locations of the supporting beams must be
highlighted to ensure correct positioning.
When supported by timber bearers the timbers, shall run in the trough of the decking to
ensure that the weight is supported on the structural steelwork not the decking sheets.
Static elevated work platform operations will only be undertaken in designated working area clearly
defined with signage erected; all other trades plant and equipment should be kept out of the
erection areas.
Designated machine operators, and other operatives carrying out work from the basket of a SEWP
will have been trained and tested and will be in possession of a recognized Operators Training
Certificate.
All elevated platforms not being used will have the ground controls set to off and the keys removed.
Out of hours if required baskets will be left in the air, ground controls set to off and the keys
removed.
Engineers (or similar non-tradesman personnel) who do not possess Training Certificate will only be
allowed to work from a elevated work platform that is operated by a trained operative.
Operatives, and all others travelling in the basket, will wear safety harnesses, clipped on to the
anchorage points within the platform, at all times
If the signs do not align with the supporting steelwork stop work and get advice
immediately
Methods of Access to Open Steelwork

It may be necessary for the erectors to gain access to the open steelwork at some point during the
erection phase. The below are the recognised methods of access.
The preferred method is to access the steelwork from the basket of the MEWP/SEWP, the reason
behind providing twin tailed lanyards is to ensure this procedure can be carried out whilst the
operative is clipped on at all times.
43
SITE EHS PLAN
The basket will be positioned so that the access opening is adjacent to the steelwork. A Dover
Clamp or wire strop will be fixed either to the top flange or wrapped around an erected beam.
Remember to remain clipped to at least one anchor point at all times, failure to do so
could result in serious disciplinary action. Whilst still clipped to the hard point of the basket
the second tail will be attached to the Dover Clamp/Wire Strop. The lanyard can then be unclipped
Dover Clamp /
Wire rope
from the hard point and the operator can then climb out of the basket onto the steelwork and carry
out the beam straddling technique covered later in this document.If the programming and layout of
the works is such that MEWPs/SEWPs cannot be used for access and workplace during the erection
of any part of the steelwork, as would normally be preferred.
o Access for erectors can be by ladders erected from the metal decking, to suitable points
of access on above floor level steelwork. Access across steelwork will then be by the use
of the same beam-access techniques as those for the MEWP/SEWP

Beam Straddling Technique
1. The Company’s operatives use a safe method for such beam-access that involves being
connected - at all times - to the steelwork by the use of safety harnesses, double lanyards
and Dover Clamps/ wire strops (see SKETCH at right and below).
2. When moving along steel, erectors are attached by lanyard to Dover Clamps/ wire strops that
are pushed along the top flange of beam.

Use of Man Riding Basket
The use of man riding baskets is becoming rare now, although still useful on some inner city high-rise
contracts.
Site specific paperwork shall be provided for the use of any such equipment.
As a rule if the basket is open without a roof structure, you clip to the crane hook by a fixed length
lanyard/wire rope. If the basket has a roof structure then you must attach to the fixed hardpoint as in
the MEWP basket.
A specific rescue procedure needs to be introduced to cover this procedure.
The diagram below is an example of the component parts of a Man Riding Basket system.

Keep the floor of the basket tidy, reduce trips and falling objects Rescue from Height
The nature of the work we carry out requires that a number of operations are carried out whilst
working at height. The common procedures are listed previously.
47
SITE EHS PLAN
Although our procedures reduce the risk of falls from height, the possibility still remains. The
nature of a rescue will be dependent on the contract; whether we are working on open steel, using
MEWP’s.
Ensure that all operatives are briefed on the methods of rescue at the start of the contract. If the
use of a man riding basket is to be utilized, the Principal Contractor and other Contractors need to
be aware of the emergency procedures.
Check that rescue equipment is always available and is in good order.
On important, or significantly hazardous, projects, carry out a Trial Rescue to ensure that all
procedures/equipment are operative.
The first action in all cases will be to call the Emergency Services
Where a person is suspended in their harness:
1. Assess level of injuries, and remove injured person from harness at earliest possible time.
(a) Use MEWP/SEWP to reach person, maneuvering basket to 'collect' him as basket rises.
Lower to ground and proceed as D below, or
(b) Use Man-riding basket to reach and collect person in similar fashion, or
(c) Reach position where harness is attached, attach Rescue Lanyard to safe anchorage
point and to persons harness, unclip persons harness from steel and lower to ground or floor
below.
NB It may be that more than 1 MEWP is required - check the SWL
2. If the person is semi-conscious or unconscious, the latest guidance is to follow first aid
guidance of management, even if the subject of prior harness suspension put the injured
person in the standard recovery position, keeping them warm and monitoring them until the
emergency services.
3. If the person is conscious and apparently uninjured look for obvious signs of suspension
trauma such as: light headedness; nausea; sensations of flushing; tingling or numbness of
the arms or legs; anxiety; visual disturbance; or a feeling they are about to faint. In this
48
SITE EHS PLAN
situation place the person in a seated position with knees raised monitoring them until the
emergency services arrive, if their condition worsens or they become unconscious follow the
above guidelines.
A person is lying on open steel:
1. Assess level of injuries, and if it is considered that the injured person is at risk from
remaining suspended:
(a) Use MEWP/SEWP to reach person, maneuvering basket to a position from which the
person can be moved into the basket. Lower to ground and proceed as D below, or
(b) Use Man-riding basket to reach and collect person in similar fashion, or
(c) Reach position where person is lying, attach Rescue Lanyard to safe anchorage point and
to persons harness and lower to ground or floor below.
It may be that more than 1 MEWP is required - check the SWL
2. If the person is conscious, is apparently uninjured and able to communicate his wishes,
proceed as above.
3. If the person is unconscious but not apparently at risk from remaining where he is await
emergency services and, if or when requested, proceed as above.
The injured person is in the basket of a MEWP/SEWP:
1. Lower the basket, using the ground level controls.
2. If MEWP cannot be operated from ground level, proceed by whichever of the other
alternatives above and below is appropriate.
3. Carry out first-aid without removing person from basket
4. Await Emergency Services.
The injured person is lying on an open floor at height:
1. Carry out first-aid without removing person from floor
2. Await Emergency Services.

49
SITE EHS PLAN
3. Ensure a specific stretcher is available for moving the injured person if you are asked to
assist in the moving of the injured party.
Don’t compromise or endanger yourself whilst trying to rescue someone else, when the
Emergency Services arrive they don’t want to rescue a rescuer.
Suspension Trauma
A problem that arises if a person is left suspended in a full body harness for any length of time
more than 8 minutes. The harness webbing straps around the top of the legs restrict circulation of
the blood causing a buildup of toxins. if released quickly these toxins can cause heart failure. To
help reduce these risks try to follow the following guidelines.
i. If you are suspended keep your legs moving. The muscles in your legs act as pumps on one
way valves in the veins in your legs so moving them will help circulate the blood. So if you
or the person suspended is conscious keep the legs moving.
ii. Once rescued stay upright or sit down and pull your knees to your chest, seek medical
attention.
iii. If the person is semi-conscious or unconscious, the latest information; is to follow first aid
guidance of , even if the subject of prior harness suspension put the injured person in the
standard recovery position, keeping them warm and monitoring them until the emergency
services.
iv. If the person is conscious and apparently uninjured look for obvious signs of suspension
trauma such as: light headedness; nausea; sensations of flushing; tingling or numbness of
the arms or legs; anxiety; visual disturbance; or a feeling they are about to faint. In this
situation place the person in a seated position with knees raised monitoring them until the
emergency services arrive, if their condition worsens or they become unconscious follow the
above guidelines.
Seek Medical Advice
Depends on the nature of the Accident/Incident an investigation will be carried out by

either Site Management or the Group Safety Department.
