1. Before using the electrical tools must check valid LEW sticker place on it.
2. No cables are allowed to lie on ground or floor. If unavoidable, the cables shall be of
weatherproof types, with adequate protection.
3. Use proper warning sign.
4. All electrical installations & equipment are of good construction, sound material and free
from defects.
5. If any repair in electrical tools only qualified person can do all repair works.
6. Use proper PPE i.e., rubber gloves, non-conducting shoes etc.
7. Carry out electrical connection by the authorized and competent person.
1. Foreman to ensure workers to put on safety helmet, safety shoe, safety belt and hand
glove at all time.
2. Tool-box talks to be conducted before the start of work on the safety measure and
precaution of the job by foreman.
3. If hand-tool were to be used, check physical condition of the hand-tool. Do not use damage
tool.
4. If power-tool were to be used workers need to be in-house trained and register with the
main-con, safety dept. If hand held grinder to be used, follow strictly on the SWP for hand
held grinder.

9. ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS
1. Prior to work commencement, the proposed work area shall be assessed for
suitability to carry out the works by the Environmental Manager.
2. All workers shall be properly inducted and undergone required training prior to work
commencement.
3. Where necessary, noise barrier will be installed around the pipe jointing area to
minimize the construction noise.
4. All works carried out shall be normal working hours (between 0800-1700hrs) on
weekdays, and may be further worked around park operations in order to avoid
disruptions. Where works are required to be carried out during the night (e.g
shutdown as required by WRS), the works shall be assessed in accordance with
EMMP requirements and measures implemented accordingly.
5. At all times, the T&C work team shall be accompanied by an authorized Expand
staff and/or delegated MPD/stakeholders’ representative. Entry into restricted
areas shall be strictly with the permission from MPD/stakeholders.
6. Any water collected in sump pit should be pumped into the ECM tank. After
treatment the water should discharge to drain.
7. Wildlife response plan shall be adhered during construction works.
8. Food shall not be consumed on site, but only at designated rest area (with
designated bins for proper disposal of food waste).
9. All food waste shall be contained in plastic bags before disposal into wildlife-proof
bins. They should be removed daily to prevent attraction of pests and smell
nuisance.
10. All workers and visitors shall be educated to ensure that all workplaces are kept
clean and waste materials are not left in open areas.
11. If possible, windows or openings facing the forested areas will be sealed with
acoustic sheets at designated work sites to prevent light spillage (and provide
screening effects to noise generated from the construction works.
12. Keep windows and doors closed during indoor overnight construction works,
whenever safe to do so, to reduce extent and intensity of light escaping buildings.

13. Ensure temporary lighting used indoors for construction activities located near
glass walls as well as open windows or doors are blocked with acoustic sheets and
pointed away from vegetated areas including CCNR, Eco-Link, Track 15 Stream
and TPZ.
14. Restrict outdoor movements by workers to use of designated sanitary facilities (or
in the case of an emergency, evacuation from buildings), workers will remain
indoors from 6 pm to 10pm. When workers step outside of buildings,
flashlights/headlamps for walking to and from sanitary facilities for safety purposes
will be kept pointed towards the ground and away from the CCNR and other
vegetated areas.
