ACCOUNTABILITIES

Employees wouldn’t fulfill the responsibilities placed on them, unless they are being held accountable for their
performance or the lack of it. Hence this portion is being added specifically into this procedure.

In order to have effective accountability, the procedure should refer to a transparent performance measurement guidelines
and state how accountability will be decided based on the performance indicators.

EHS performance can be measured proactively as well as reactively and hence the following leading indicators and lagging
indicators [refer SP 9.1 – EHS performance Measurement] will be used, while defining the accountability of employees.
• Proactive EHS performance monitoring system - to measure the individual contribution to EHS and safe
behavior

• Key Performance Indicator - to measure and benchmark the EHS performance of work place withstandards
• FR/ SR/ AR/ Accident-free man-hours/ Audit NCRs/ complaints from stakeholders/ Notices receivedetc.

REWARDS
• Details (name/photo) of the SAP Award winner (section-in-charge) shall be published prominently in ALL the
project sites at prominent locations in multi-colour format at least to the size of A3; details ofthe SAP Award
winner (site engineer/supervisor/ workmen) shall be published within the site in ALL the prominent locations..

• Every project which is completed without any fatal accident will be given a special cash incentive to the tune of
0.1%/Management decision of the project value, which can be distributed to all the staff, based on their total
number of days worked in the project (irrespective of their grade); this cash incentive will be increased to 0.2%, if
the site is completed without any reportable accident (any incident in which the injured person was unable to
attend duty more than 2 working days – excluding the date of accident)

• Proactive performance monitoring scores will be converted to cash incentives (based on a conversion ratio, which
will be decided by the BU/Operation heads, on a quarterly basis; however, if there is any reportable accident
during this period, cash incentive will not be paid.

• One site engineer, who gets the maximum score (in each HO) in the proactive performance monitoring system,
will get a day off within the next one month.

REPRIMANDS
• Whenever there is a fatal accident in any workplace, concerned section-in-charge will be placed under suspension,
till the investigation committee presents their findings. The employee shall not be allowed to come to the site. If
the committee feels that there was dereliction of duty on the part of any specific person, which has led to the
incident directly, serious action may be taken on him/ her, including separation from the organization.

• Whenever there is a reportable accident/ dangerous occurrence (which call for a HIGH level of investigation –
as per SP 10.2), after the investigation are completed, if any dereliction of duty is foundout (by the committee) on
the part of any specific employee, he shall be issued with a warning letter bythe concerned Head and a copy shall
be placed in the concerned employee’s personal folder.

• All employees who are unable to get the benchmark score in the proactive performance monitoring system will
be penalized and this fine will be deducted from their site allowance Out of Pocket Expenses(OPE), proportionate
to the shortfall from the benchmark score; this will be done on a monthly basis.

SYSTEM PROCEDURE (SP) 6.1.2E – ENVIRONMENT ASPECT & IMPACT ASSESSMENT

PURPOSE

To establish, implement and maintain a procedure for identification of environmental aspects, assessment of
environmental impacts and the determination of those which are significant.

SCOPE

Environment Aspect & Impact Assessment shall be done for all the activities, products and services, as identified in
the “master aspect & impact register”.

RESPONSIBILITY

Project Manager, Construction Manager, Section In charges, Site Engineers, EHSO

PROCEDURE

6.1.2 ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS

6.1.2.1 OVERVIEW
Environment Aspect

The elements of an organization’s activities, products and services that can interact with the environment are called
environmental aspects. Examples include a discharge, an emission, consumption or reuse of a material, or generation
of noise.
Environment Impact
Changes to the environment, either adverse or beneficial, that results wholly or partially from environmental aspects
are called environmental impacts. Examples of adverse impacts include pollutionof air/ water/ land, and depletion
of natural resources. Examples of beneficial impacts include improved water or soil quality.

The objective of this procedure is to


• Identify the environmental aspects the organization can control and those that it can influence,and their
associated environmental impacts, considering a life-cycle perspective.
• Establish criteria and a method to determine those that it will consider significant

• Determine the risks & opportunities related to its environmental aspects, compliance obligations,
external/internal issues that have the ability to affect the environmental performance and the needs &
expectations of the internal/ external stake holders.

TEAM FOR ASPECT/ IMPACT ASSESSMENT


Aspect & impact assessment shall be conducted by a team of persons who have a thorough knowledge of the work
to be assessed. Team members may include CPM, Project Manager, Area / Section In charges & Execution Engineer,
Subcontractors, Workmen.
The methodology for Aspect & Impact Assessment is explained below under the respective clauses.

6.1.2.2 UNDERSTANDING ACTIVITIES

The activities/ products/ services shall be well understood so as to clearly identify the environment aspects &
their respective impacts. The following shall be considered in understanding the activities

• The list of the activities shall be prepared as a part of the preparation of master aspect & impact assessment
register.
• They shall be analyzed, understood & grouped / categorized suitably for identification andevaluation of
environment aspects.

• The grouping or category shall be based on common characteristics such as operations work flow,materials
or energy use in activities, or environmental media affected (e.g. air, water, and land)

6.1.2. 3 IDENTIFIYING ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS

While identifying the aspects, the following shall be considered:


• Normal operations
• Abnormal operating conditions (maintenance and emergency situations and accidents)
• Aspects that can be controlled directly,
• Aspects that can be influenced
• Legal or contractual authority
• Local or regional issues
• Obligations and responsibilities to interested parties.

The approach to identifying environmental aspects shall be as given below:

• emissions to air,
• releases to water,
• releases to land,
• use of raw materials and natural resources (e.g. land use, water use),
• local/community environmental issues,
• use of energy,

• energy emitted (e.g. heat, radiation, vibration),


• waste and by-products

6.1.2. 4 UNDERSTANDING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS

The environmental impacts shall be well understood so as to determine their significance. In general, the following
shall be considered:

• Positive (beneficial) as well as negative (adverse) environmental impacts,


• Actual and potential environmental impacts,
• The part(s) of the environment that might be affected, such as air, water, soil, flora, fauna,
• The characteristics of the location that might affect the impact such as local weather conditions, height of
water table, soil types, etc., and
• The nature of the changes to the environment (such as global vs. local issues).

6.1.2. 5 DETERMINING SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS

6.1.2.5.1 ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

• Aspect & Impact assessment methodology adopted shall be of quantitative type given by a four-
dimensional matrix. The steps in the evaluation of environmental impact are given below.
• Environmental impact for all the aspects shall be calculated based on the following formulae:
• Impact value = Area of impact (A) X Severity of the impact (S) X Likelihood of the impact (L) XDuration
of the impact (D)

6.1.2.5.2 DETERMINING SIGNIFICANT ASPECTS

• Legal Requirement (LR): if the identified impact is covered by existing environmental regulations (central/
state/ local), it shall be considered significant.
• Interested party concern (IPC): if the identified impact has been raised by any of the interested parties, the
assessment committee will decide whether it is significant or not, based on the assessment guidelines given
in this procedure.
• Resource conservation potential: if the identified aspect has the ability to conserve the natural resources to
the tune of more than 50K INR (Rs. 50000) during the project duration, it shall be considered as significant.
• If any of the aspects is a legal requirement and/ or IPC and/ or RCP shall be considered as
significant only, then needless to calculate the impact value
• Any other aspect which has a calculated impact value of more than 81 (3X3X3X3), will be considered as
significant.

HUMAN FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED

Human factors, such as capabilities, behaviors and limitations, shall be taken into account when evaluating the hazards
and risks of processes, equipment and work environments.

Human factors shall be considered whenever there is a human interface and take into account issuessuch as ease
of use, potential for operational errors, operator stress and user fatigue.

In considering human factors, the hazard identification process shall consider the following and theirinteractions:

• The nature of the job (workplace layout, operator information, work load, physical work, work patterns),

• The environment (heat, lighting, noise, air quality),

• Human behavior (temperament, habits, attitude),

• Psychological capabilities (cognition, attention),

• Physiological capabilities (biomechanical, anthropometrics/Physical variation of people).

IDENTIFYING HAZARDS WHICH OCCUR OR ORIGINATE OUTSIDE THE WORKPLACE

In some instances, there can be hazards which occur or originate outside the workplace that can have an impact on
individuals within the workplace (e.g. releases of toxic materials from neighbouring operations).Where such hazards
are foreseeable, these shall be addressed.

EXAMPLE OF TYPICAL HAZARDS

Unsafe conditions shall not be identified as hazards.

Refer the annexure A, given below in this procedure for list of hazards and hazardous events.

HAZARDOUS EVENT

For a hazard to cause harm a hazardous event must happen;

The likelihood is the chance that the hazardous event will occur;

Consequence is the outcome of the hazardous event.

4.3.1.4.1 GENERAL

Risk is the combination of the likelihood of an occurrence of a hazardous event or exposure(s) and theseverity of
injury or ill health that can be caused by the event or exposure(s)

Risk assessment is the process of evaluating the risk arising from a hazard, taking into account theadequacy of
any existing controls, and deciding whether the risk(s) is acceptable

4.3.1.4.2 INPUTS FOR RISK ASSESSMENT

Inputs to the risk assessment processes can include, but are not limited to, information or data on thefollowing:

• Details of location(s) where work is carried out,

• The proximity and scope for hazardous interaction between activities in the workplace,

• The human capabilities, behavior, competence, training and experience of those who normally and/or
occasionally carry out hazardous tasks,

• The proximity of other personnel (e.g. cleaners, visitors, contractors, the public) who might be affected
by hazardous work,

• Details of any work instructions, systems of work and/or permit to-work procedures, prepared for
hazardous tasks,

• Manufacturers’ or suppliers’ instructions for operation and maintenance of equipment andfacilities,

• The availability and use of control measures [e.g. for ventilation, guarding, personal protective equipment
(PPE), etc.],

• Abnormal conditions (e.g. the potential interruption of utility services such as electricity and water,
or other process failures),

• Environmental conditions affecting the workplace,

• The potential for failure of plant and machinery components and safety devices

• Details of access to, and adequacy/condition of emergency procedures, emergency escapeplans,


emergency equipment,

• Emergency escape routes (including signage), emergency communication facilities, and external
emergency support, etc.,

• Monitoring data related to incidents associated — with specific work activities,

Management System Manual
Conforming to ISO 14001:2015 & ISO 45001:2018
Doc. No: SP 6.1.2 Page 7 of 16

• The findings of any existing assessments relating to hazardous work activity,

• Details of previous unsafe acts either by the individuals performing the activity or by others (e.g.adjacent
personnel, visitors, contractors, etc.),

• the duration and frequency at which tasks are carried out,

• Risk to vulnerable groups such as new & in experienced workers shall be considered during therisk
assessment.

4.3.1.4.3 RISK ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

• Risk Assessment methodology using a two dimensional risk matrix is explained here below:

POPULATION AT RISK

• This defines, who are exposed to this hazards, it could be staff members, workmen, visitors,client
personnel, suppliers, etc.,

POSSIBLE OUTCOME

• This is the outcome of hazardous event i.e. Ill health, Injury/ serious injury, burn and death.

IDENTIFYING EXISTING RISK CONTROL

• Existing control measures shall be first identified for each of the identified H&S hazard. While selection
of existing control measures, only those measures, which have been well established shall be considered.
For example, if equipment fitness verification before deployment is considered as an existing control
measure, it should have been fully established and functional; otherwise, it need not be considered as an
existing control while determining likelihood of occurrence. This is to ensure that whatever controls that
are listed as “existing” will definitely be implemented when the referred activity is taken up.
• While determining the existing controls, other parameters also shall be verified such as past record of
Project Manager (past proactive EHS performance scores), resource availability, Provisions in DRAIPL,
etc.,

DETERMINING LIKELIHOOD OF OCCURRENCE

• When seeking to establish the likelihood of hazardous event occurring, the adequacy of existing control
measures shall not be taken into account. It shall be done based on the past incident data as per the
descriptions given in the five-point risk matrix.

Doc. No: SP 6.1.2 Page 8 of 16

ASSESSING THE POTENTIAL SEVERITY

• Severity is the degree or extent of harm that can be caused by the hazards as a result of the hazardous
event. Severity is classified in five-point scale in the risk matrix given below.

RISK ASSESSMENT MATRIX

Severity
No medical Illness Illness
Illness in

year in a site.

• The risk assessment matrix is based on the concept of applying experience of events or incidents in the
past to predict risk in the future.

• The vertical axis represents increasing likelihood (levels 1 to 5) of the occurrence. The horizontal axis
represents increasing consequences (severity levels 1 to 5) in terms of harm to people.

• Boxes in the matrix represent levels of risk, increasing from top left to bottom right corners ofthe matrix.

• The matrix is divided into blue, yellow and red areas to illustrate the increasing level of risk.

• Once the likelihood and severity have been established, the risk level can be determined fromthe risk
matrix.
• To determine the risk level, select the appropriate row for severity and the appropriate column for
likelihood; the cell where they intersect indicates the risk level.

4.3.1.4.4 OTHER CONSIDERATIONS FOR RISK ASSESSMENT

GENERIC RISK ASSESSMENT


• Generic risk assessments shall be developed for typical activities that are regularly carried out in the project
sites of various business units.

• This generic risk assessment shall be prepared by a task force group formed at HOlevel to create a
master of risk assessment for all regular activities.

• Such generic assessments shall be used as a starting point for preparing site specific assessments. This shall
be done by customizing the generic risk assessment to be appropriate to the particular situation.

• This approach is aimed to improve the speed and efficiency of the risk assessment process and improve the
consistency of risk assessments for similar tasks across locations.

4.3.1.5 MANAGEMENT OF CHANGE

Risk assessment shall be checked for the following changes before it is put in use:

• New or modified technology, equipment, facilities, or work environment


• New or revised procedures, work practices, designs, specifications or standards,
• Significant changes to the site’s organizational structure and staffing, including the use of contractors,

The site engineer shall complete a check of the following points before using the risk assessment to ensure that
changes are managed effectively.

• Have new hazards been created?


• What are the risks associated with the new hazards?
• Have the risks from other hazards changed?
• Could the changes adversely affect existing risk controls?
• Have the most appropriate controls been chosen, bearing in mind usability, acceptability and both the
immediate and long-term costs?

4.3.1.6 DETERMINING THE NEED FOR CONTROLS

CONTROL OF RISK
• Based on the estimated risk level, additional controls shall be identified (if required) to reduce the risk level
to an acceptable level.

• Whenever additional control measures are indicated, ‘action by’ need not be a site engineer: it could be the
Project Manager/ Construction manager/ Section in-charge/ planning in-charge (since it may involve
resource allocation). Since the risk ratings are based on the incidents that have occurred and has no direct
relation to the existing or additional controls, risk level of some of the activities could continue to remain as
high or medium – which only indicate a high level of caution to be maintained while execution to ensure
that ALL controls are implemented without fail.
• A master risk register shall be made available in the project as per the format SP 6.1.2-3, by compiling all
the hazards and hazardous event in all risk assessments.

Environment, Health & Safety (EHS)
Management System Manual
Conforming to ISO 14001:2015 & ISO 45001:2018
Doc. No: SP 6.1.2 Page 11 of 16

• For each risk assessment, at least One or Two Critical Control Points (CCP) shall be identifiedand
mentioned in SP 6.1.2-1. Without applying CCP controls, the activity/ process shall NOT be performed.

ACCEPTABLE RISK
• An acceptable risk is a risk that has been reduced to a level that the organization is willing toassume
with respect to its legal obligation, its OH&S policy and its OH&S objectives.

RESIDUAL RISKS
• Risk that remains after controls have been implemented.

HIERARCHY OF CONTROLS
Whenever controls are identified, their selection shall be determined by the principle of hierarchy of controls as
indicated below:

• Elimination
• Substitution
• Engineering Control

• Administrative Control
• Personal Protective Equipment
In applying the hierarchy, consideration shall be given to the relative costs, risk reduction benefits and reliability of the
available options.

VERIFICATION OF EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS


• In order to ensure that risk assessment is used as a proactive exercise, EHS Manager/ Officer shall verify the
effective implementation of ALL the controls in one risk assessment in all locations of the site/ habitat. This
shall be done as per the format SP 6.1.2-4 at least for one RA per week.

• If any of the control measures is not being implemented effectively, it shall be withdrawn from the existing
or additional control measure; it shall be made more practicable by suitable modification or shall be worked
out as an operational objective and implemented.

shall complete a comprehensive verification of at least one procedure/ process during every sitevisit and highlight
their findings to HO or to CPM, as appropriate. For ex. The induction process, medical screening process, document
verification process, on-arrival inspection process of equipment, brought by sub-contractors, training process, EHS
observation close-out process, legal compliance verification process, corrective action process for the audit
observations and root cause identification process for the audit non-conformities etc..

All the instruments used for taking any measurements at site (such as Lux meter/ Noise meter/ Gas monitoretc.) shall
be calibrated at regular intervals, as prescribed under the Local Regulations. This may even include the pressure gauge
etc.

EHS PERFORMANCE (LEADING INDICATORS)

The following are few of the leading indicators used;

Doc. No: SP 9.1.1 Page 2 of 9

• Proactive EHS performance monitoring system - to measure the individual contribution to EHS andsafe
behavior
• Key Performance Indicator - to measure and benchmark the EHS performance of work place with standards

PROACTIVE EHS PERFORMANCE MONITORING SYSTEM

Proactive EHS performance of all the site based employees (including EHS staff) shall be measured in an objective
manner and the results of measurement shall be communicated to all concerned at regular intervals.

Few important features of the above performance measurement system (which is bound to bring positive work culture)
are:

• Safety improvement slip: All the staff members will issue it to the workmen/ supervisors/ engineers who
are working in an unsafe manner or authorizing employees to work in unsafe conditions; this will give
very strong signal to the workers that theorganization is serious about EHS requirements and it is not just
a lip service! have to carry the safety improvement booklet.

• Upward communication from workmen: When all the workmen are motivated to report “at-risk-
behaviors” unsafe condition and near miss incidents in the workplace, the likelihood of incidents will
come down drastically. High level of trust will be given to the workmen that all their upward
communications (in the form of suggestions/ near-miss/ at-risk behaviors) will be taken positively by the
management.

• “Safe-to-Start-Work” card (coupled with job specific HIRA talk): In order to make the risk assessments
an ongoing practice and to make it beneficial to all concerned (instead of just a paper work), this simple
self-check mechanism shall be carried out by all the frontline supervisors/ foremen/ engineers, while
giving work instruction to the workmen.This will influence their thinking process to look for the actual
hazards in the work place and the controls, to decide whether the work can be authorized by them or
not; this also gives theman opportunity to communicate more specific work instructions.

SAP SCHEME

SAP (Safety Aware Person of the month) scheme is embedded with HR rewarding system to implement/ sustain
the proactive performance monitoring system.

REWARD AND FELICITATION THROUGH SAP SCHEME:

• Winners under the category of SAP (Section In-charge) of the month will be called and felicitated at

Doc. No: SP 9.2 Page 2 of 4

• Audit is conducted by auditors seeking objective evidence demonstrating whether the audited activities
comply with the requirements of the documented EHSMS and rate the EHS performance of the project as per
the EHS Audit scorecard.

• Under normal circumstances, audits shall not be postponed; in extra-ordinary circumstances, if postponement
is unavoidable, the person who seeks the postponement (either the auditor orthe auditee) shall give alternative
audit date(s) within 10 working days of the original date.

• If the quality of the audit and the audit report is not acceptable to MR (if the audit doesn’t fulfill the objectives,
as defined above, in this procedure), concerned auditors shall not be used for audits later or shall be used as
“trainee auditors” along with other auditors.

• Audit report shall not be restricted to some physical (unsafe) observations at site and few other(unrelated)
observations related to documents/ records, in addition to the scoring system. It should have a comprehensive
coverage to all the requirements of the EHSMS manual.

• Duration of audit can be more than one day, depending on the size, complexity, severity of the site and the
scope of the audit.

• Auditors shall start the audit with an opening meeting and end the audit with a closing meeting.These meetings
shall be attended by responsible persons at the auditee work location. Duringthe opening meeting, the auditee
shall make a presentation to the auditor regarding the current status of the project, based on the given format
SP 9.2-6.

• Auditor evaluates the EHS performance of the office / site quantitatively with the audit score card of office /
site as a guide. The scores obtained are summarized in the Audit scoring summary sheet.

• Auditor shall send the Audit Report comprising of Audit Score card and summary sheet, Observation report
(as per the given format) and an Executive summary to the Auditee, EHSM/ HOD-EHS within seven working
days of the audit date.

• All the observations shall be supported with either oral/ documentary or physical evidence

• All observations shall include the total population, sample size and the percentage of compliance/ non-
compliance within the sample size. For e.g. if a floor opening is found withoutadequate protection, the auditor
has to collect the data regarding total number of openings at site (total population), number of openings that
were verified for adequacy of protection (samplesize) and out of the verified openings, how many were not
adequately protected (% of compliance within the sample size).

• The auditee shall identify the root cause of all the non-conformities and propose correction andcorrective
actions to the auditor and the concerned Head EHS. Similarly, for all the audit observations, auditee has
to propose correction as well as corrective action, which needs tobe approved by the auditor/ Head
EHS.

• Audit observation report and score card should have linkages. For e.g. If the excavation activityhas been scored
very low in the score card, then it should have been validated with sufficient evidences in the Observation
report and if it is a major issue, must be detailed in the executive summary.

• Head EHS, on receiving all the three components of the audit report (score card, observation report and the
executive summary) shall decide whether nonconformity exists. If so, it is brought to the attention of, the
auditee and a nonconformity report is raised. EHSM fills out the first part of the form describing the non-
conformity, which is agreed & acknowledged by theauditee. Auditee uses the second part of the report to
propose a corrective action and the dateby which the corrective action will be implemented. Head EHS, if
satisfied, agrees with the date,otherwise it is resolved by the Management Representative.

• If the audit pertains to a HO function, on receiving the report, Ho EHS representative decides whether there
is a scope for issuing NCR.

• Immediately after the due Date for implementation of corrective action, the EHSM follows upto determine,
if corrective action has been implemented effectively. If more work is needed, to fully implement the action,
a new follow - up date is agreed upon.

• Upon satisfactory completion of implementation of corrective action and verification of the effectiveness of
the corrective action, the status of nonconformity report is closed by the concerned auditor.

• Closed out Non-conformity reports are retained by the Management Representative / Head EHS, who
periodically reviews the status of all Non - conformity reports to determine pending nonconformities
requiring follow up on corrective actions.

• Copies of Closed out non-conformities are sent to auditee for records.

• Audit findings are analyzed every quarter to assess the performance of projects/ HOs and to initiate necessary
corrective action. This analysis is presented in the Management Review meetings with any specific
inferences/ support needed from the management.

• EHSM shall send the summary & status of audit conducted every quarter.

BEST AUDITOR AWARD

• Best auditor scheme is introduced to improve the audit effectiveness,

• PD/ PM of each site audited will send evaluation to Head EHS.

body of water. Sump capacity should be at least 1.3 times
the maximum volume of waste water discharged per day.
The bottom of the pit should be filled with coarse gravel
and the sides shored up with board, etc. to prevent erosion
and collapse of the pit. The pit shall be cleaned at regular
intervals so that filtration of water to the ground is
possible.

If feasible, this waste water shall be carried to septic tank.


Following precautionary measures for Kitchen waste water
drainage may be considered so that the pollution load in
waste water generated from washing hands and dishes
are minimized, as per feasibility.
• All the leftover food particles in the plates and
cooking utensils may be collected in separate bins. In no
case food particles may be allowed to go in to the drain.

• Food grains may be washed in a separate container


and not directly in the sink.
• All the oil pans before washing may be wiped out
using paper or cloth. This will reduce the oil and grease
concentration in the wastewater. The wiped cloth or paper
may be disposed similar to disposal method followed in
waste cotton.

• Left out cooked oil may be collected separately and


disposed off to the approved recycler. Under any
circumstances it shall not be disposed in the drains.

• Two stages of washing dishes may be followed for


washing larger number of utensils. In the first stage the sink
may be filled with soapy water and all the dishes may be
washed. In the second stage the sink may be filled with
fresh water and all the pre-washed dishes (with soapy
foam) may be washed with the fresh water.

• Water conservation taps available in local market


may be fitted in dishwashing sink and wash basin.

PROCEDURAL STEPS
Operational Supervisory
Blasting: Blasting is done to break the hard rock
coming in the way of any project using dangerous
explosives. It is usually measured in terms of M3
(Cubic. Meter).

Explosives: A solid or liquid substance or mixture of


substances, which on the application of suitable
stimulus to a small portion of the mass, is converted
into other more stable substances, largely or entirely
1
gaseous, with the development of heat and high
pressure. in a very short interval of time

Accidents during blasting have become a routine


feature. Though highly explosive materials are used
for blasting work, the workers who handle the
explosive materials are not aware of the safety
aspects involved. Starting from transportation, safety
is an inherent phenomenon in every step.

When blasting is done in congested areas or in
proximity to a structure, railway, or highway, or
any other installation that may be damaged, the
blaster shall take special precautions in the
loading, delaying, initiation, and confinement of
each blast with mats or other methods so as to
control the throw of fragments, and thus prevent
bodily injury to employees.
Hazard Communication:
Employees authorized to prepare explosive
charges or conduct blasting operations shall use
2 every reasonable precaution including, but not
limited to, visual and audible warning signals,
flags, or barricades, to ensure employee safety.
Personal Protective Equipment’s (PPE’s)
PPE’s shall be assured at all the times during
blasting operations.
Eye Face Protection: Eye wash fountain and
abundant water to be made available while
Handling the explosives.
Body Protection: Full body apron to be used by
the worker/mate handling the explosives
PPE Care: Safety Shoe, helmets, PVC hand
gloves and goggles shall be well maintained, and
should not be transferred from one employee to
another without being cleaned.
FACE MUFFLING AND BLASTING:
After the holes are charged and connected, the
blasting face should be covered preferably with
Heavy duty Blasting Mats or sand bags /steel sheets
combination to avoid fly rocks.

3 Clearing of people and posting of sentries at all entry


points to be done.

It is better to clear people for at least area of 200


meters all around the blasting area in controlled
blasting and 500 meters in open blasting. [Refer

Fall Factors are something that every rescuer and climber should understand. Understanding fall
factor
will help a climber/rescuer determine when and how often to place anchor points. Because it is
impossible to fall farther than twice the length of the rope the highest possible fall factor are 2.
A fall of 8 meters on 4 meters of rope (8 divided by 4) is a fall factor 2. So is a fall of 40m on 20m
of rope (40 divided by 20, fall factor 2). It is important to remember that fall factor is not the only
determinant when calculating impact force; overall length of the fall, friction from anchors, weight
of load, also greatly affects the impact force. In order to limit the impact force created it is important
to place protection whenever possible.
How To Calculate the SWL of Fiber Ropes

Agreement given in this document forms an integral part of the contract.

It is the responsibility of the contractors and Client’s representatives to ensure that the
workmen of contractors and any sub-contractors are fully informed about safety procedures
and that they follow them in their work place. We strive to make all DRAIPL Projects and sites
“ZERO ACCIDENTS” projects with a Goal of “ZERO INCIDENT", where we will ensure that our
societal responsibility is fulfilled without any reservations.

To revise this document, discuss your suggestion with the Project EHS manager in
writing and seek approval to change in consultation with DRAIPL Corporate EHS team.
If your proposal is relevant / accepted, the document will be revised to include

Scrap doesn’t just represent a cost to a metal stamper that didn’t fully maximize the value
of raw material when processing a job. It also represents the potential risk/costs resulting
from injuries if the scrap is handled or stored improperly.
Many work tasks, such as manual loading and unloading, lift truck operating, and
breaking and cutting, involved in the management of scrap metal have the potential to
injure workers. The most common types of injuries that occur when handling scrap metal
are sprains and strains, cuts, lacerations, and punctures. Other potential dangers include
workers getting caught in, struck by, or crushed by the equipment used to move the scrap;
amputation from that same equipment; and respiratory illnesses from chemicals or dust
on the scrap.
