10 11.0 RISK MANAGEMENT

Different types of work activities carry different types of risks. Some of these activities,
their hazards and the ways to managing them form a major part of our safety program.
To effectively manage the risks a comprehensive job safety analysis of our operations
has been carried out. The result is an outline of different activities, the hazards
associated with these activities, work planning and safety precautions to eliminate,
control or reduce these hazards.
We are also aware that certain job activities have a higher risk factor than others. In
tackling these high risk factors, safety plans are designed to achieve a near zero
frequency of occurrence, most especially risks with high consequences. However these
plans are reviewed regularly to meet the challenges of various projects.
We also have a pro-active approach to risk and safety issues. This is the reason why we
maintain a strong safety department.
10.1 11.1 Risk Identification and Management

 Risk will be identified by first identifying the hazard bearing the risk.
 Looking for unusual methods, equipment or environment.
 Compare what is seen with what is expected and make judgment.
 Asses and determine the probability of RISK and the consequence to personnel,
equipment and the environment.
 Rank the risk in accordance with its ranking.
 Reduce the probability and consequence of the risk occurring by the use of PPE,
adhering to safe work practices, good supervision and good job planning.
 The most effective way to control risk is to remove or eliminate the source of the
hazard bearing the risk where practicable.

10.3 11.3 Risk Assessment
10.3.1 11.3.1 Program and Practice

Safety by objective is the pivot of our risk management. Safety by objective in this
context is defined as a process whereby superior and subordinate managers jointly
identify common goals and define each individual’s major area of responsibility in terms
of expected results. These measures are then as guides for operating and assessing
the contributions of each of its members.
This is made possible by applying the following strategies:

1) Safety auditing
2) Safety meetings, seminars and sessions
3) Dissemination of safety information through safety bulletins
4) Job safety analysis
Ref. NO.
DATE: 19-03-2024 Page 30 of 63
5) Hazard identification and correction

6) Performance assessment
7) Safety orientation program
8) Safety incentive program
9) Accident reporting and investigation
10) Statistics tracking.
11) Project safety objectives
12) Management, supervisors and workers responsibility for safety etc.
11.3.1.1 Job Safety Analysis (JSA)

JSA for all major activities will be prepared prior to commencing work. GINGORD has a
generic JSA. The generic JSA will form the basis for developing projects specific JSA’s.
The primary steps in Risk Assessment include the following:

 Identification of the risk events that could lead to significant loss.
 Quantification of the risk- probability of risk event occurrences and loss
consequences.
 Development and evaluation of alternative fire /or fire protection strategies.
 Measurement of the estimated change in the risk (difference in probability and /or
consequences) associated with alternative.
For objective estimation, the following areas will be of concern:

 Design standards and quality adequacy.
 Maintenance philosophy and quality of historical data.
 Safety standards and enforcement- level of compliance.
For Subjective estimation, the historical data sources are not available for the loss
event(s) of interest, probabilities can be evaluated using inferential judgment based on
available loss-trending information such as equipment failures, human error, ignition
sources, loss control elements, damageability factors.
Subjective estimation processes like any other process, should be documented and
should involve the best judgment a fire, Work place-specific evidence of loss control
deficiencies, and exposed values.
The physical intensity of fire -explosion consequences can be quantified in terms of the
expected energy (released heat exposure, smoke and /or corrosive gas contamination,
explosion blast over-pressures, etc.), the area involved, and the duration of the fire.
Ref. NO.
DATE: 19-03-2024 Page 31 of 63
Either probabilistic engineering assessment or deterministic fire-explosion modelling

tools are utilized to aid the evaluation process.
Once the intensity and duration of the potential fires and has been quantified, then the
impact on both direct and indirect loss potential must be assessed. Direct losses include
damage to buildings, equipment, and contents. While indirect losses include business,
interruption, liability for injury or death, environmental contamination, and damage to
company image. For a better understanding, loss potential is estimated in equivalent
monetary terms.
Risk management addresses the value judgments involved in establishing acceptable

level of risk and methods of handling identified risk. The acceptable risk decision-
making process is based on specific organizational goals and generally includes the
following:
 Humanitarian concerns,
 Legal requirements,
 Protection of Company assets,
 Continue Company operation,
 Profit,
 Insurance Company requirements,
 Environmental concerns,
 Community goodwill.
If the risk is acceptable, no immediate action may be necessary, but monitoring for
changes that could increase the risk must be done. If the risk is unacceptable, then
decisions must be made about how to deal with the risk.
The following options will be considered during risk management decision making for
handling fire:
 Providing loss control improvements.
 Financing alternative risk transfer arrangements such as captive or corporate
funded reserves (self- insurance).
 Avoiding the risk by non-participation in risk operations.
 Risk transfer by purchasing insurance to cover potential losses.
 Developing a risk management program that includes a combination of the above.
Also the process of assessment will include relative ranking of facilities, which defines
specific objectives regarding personnel safety property conservation, and environmental
impact. Such ranking will consider the following.
Ref. NO.

11.3.1.2 Separating the Job into its Basic Steps

Before the search for hazards begins, the job should be broken down into a sequence of
steps. Each step should describe what is being done. There is a balance between too
much detail which results in too many steps, and a breakdown that is so general that
basic steps are not recorded.
11.3.1.3 Identifying the Hazards Associated With Each Step

After all basic steps of the operation of the selected job have been listed; the next thing
to do is to identify the hazards associated with each job step. The purpose is to identify
and list the hazards which are possible in each step of the job. Some hazards are more
likely to occur than others, and some are more likely to produce serious injuries than
others. All reasonable possibilities should be considered when identifying hazards.
The basic question to be asked is “Could any of these accident types or hazards inflict
injury to a worker?” The followings are the eleven basic types of accidents:
 Struck against
 Struck by
 Contacted with
 Contacted by
 Caught in
 Caught on
 Caught between
 Fall - same level
 Fall to below
 Over exertion
 Exposure
Ref. NO.
DATE: 19-03-2024 Page 33 of 63
11.3.2 Controlling the Hazard

The final step in a JSA is to develop recommended changes to eliminate potential
hazards. During this phase, it is usually best to start with the first step and work down
the step list. Go on to the next step only after all the potential hazards are removed and
all the conditions are safe from the previous step, since some changes may affect later
steps.
The following sequence should be considered for each hazard identified for the job step:
 Change the physical conditions that create the hazards - change in tools,
materials, equipment, layout, or location.
 Change the work procedure - Ask, “What should the employee do, or not do, to
eliminate this particular hazard or prevent this potential accident?” The answer
might be as simple as stand to the side when opening the valve or getting a good
stance before lifting an item.
 Reduce the frequency - Ask, “What can be done to eliminate the cause of the
condition that makes excessive repairs or service necessary?’’ If the cause
cannot be eliminated, then ask, “Can anything be done to minimize the effects
of the condition?” Machine parts, for example, may wear out quickly and
require frequent replacement. A study of the problem may reveal that excessive
vibration is the culprit. After reducing or eliminating the vibration, the
machine parts last longer and require less maintenance.
 Find a completely new way to do the job - if the above steps have not yielded a
safe, efficient way to complete the job, the team should look at the job itself.
Determine the goal of the job, and then analyze alternative ways of reaching this
goal to determine which is safest.
 Finally, can personal protective equipment be used? The use of PPE should
always be the last consideration in reducing the hazards of a job. The
usefulness of PPE depends entirely on the worker’s willingness to use it faithfully.
Completing JSA
First identify job to be analyzed and form the JSA team
 Sequence of Basic Job Steps
 Break the job into basic steps
 List in normal sequence of occurrence
 Describe the what, not the how of each step
 Review with experienced employee
 Potential Accidents or Hazards

Question each job step for potential hazards, get ideas from: Observing the job being
done and discussing with employees and JSA team.
Recommend Safe Job Procedures

For each potential accident, decide exactly what employee should do or not do to avoid
the accident. Be specific. Write as if talking to employee. Do not use generalities like,
be careful, be alert, use caution, etc. If applicable, cite established safety rules, manuals,
etc.
This process of risk assessment and development of Job Safety Analysis is in

accordance with oil and gas producing companies.

11.2 12.2 Housekeeping

Good housekeeping is the sign of a safe operation. It is impossible to have a safe
working environment when tripping hazards, or slip hazards are present. Poor
housekeeping also creates fire hazards. Accumulation of trash is a fire hazard, therefore
all Work places will be cleared of waste on a daily basis.
Supervisors will make certain that employees are attentive to good housekeeping
practices, and that spills are promptly wiped up, that waste is not carelessly thrown
down in the work area, that the work area is policed frequently to prevent accumulation
of waste. For specific projects, Waste management, segregation and deposit will be in
accordance with Client and standard operating procedures for waste management and
disposal.
The principle of clean-up before work commence, clean-up trash as they are produced
and clean-up at the end of work will always apply.
On a regular basis the state of housekeeping will be audited and corrective items
rectified where applicable.
11.3 12.3 Safety Signs and Barricades

Safety signs and barricades will be used to define or indicate and warn workers about
the presence of hazards in the work area. Some safety sign provide information on the
control or prevention measures required to avoid accidents.
Danger sign will be used to indicate immediate hazards.
Caution sign will be used to warn against potential hazards and unsafe practices.
Safety instruction signs will be used where there is need for general instruction relative
to safety measures.
Safety signs will be accompanied with symbols and they will be as concise as possible
but will contain enough information to convey the intended message.

12 13.0 CHEMICAL HAZARDS

The company will keep Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for all toxic chemicals. All
hazardous substances must be clearly labelled per federal guide lines. In all cases the
MSDS will be accessible to the users of such chemical. The MSDS will be consulted for
proper handling and appropriate First Aid treatment of toxic chemical exposure. The
following general precautions will be taken in the storage and handling of fuel and other
chemicals. However the MSDS of the chemical involved will be consulted. Protective
clothing and rubber hand gloves will be worn when handling fuel such as diesel and
petrol, toxic chemicals or volatile products, which can cause severe burns.
If these products come in contact with the skin, wash the affected area at once with
water. Everyone has the right to know about any kind of substance one may encounter
with. In terms of any chemical transfer to another container it will be the responsibility of
such to place “Chemical alert Label”. Safe area will be designated for the storage of fuel
and other chemicals. Safety/warning signs will be positioned in conspicuous places to
warn workers of the hazard in fuel and other chemical storage areas. All fuel and other
chemical containers will be clearly marked.
Empty containers will not be cut-open, pressurized or exposed to heat until they have
been thoroughly cleaned by steaming or a method approved by the manufacturer.
Employees involved with toxic chemicals will receive a thorough briefing from the
Supervisor prior to working and will read the appropriate MSDS sheet as part of the Job
Safety Analysis and Permit system.
All used chemicals shall be stored according to the recommended temperature and in an
accessible manner. Use of fork lift shall be employed where need be and manual lift
shall not be allowed.

possible personnel will be trained both in their trade and the safe way to carry out their
operations to improve their efficiency and general output. This will be achieved by both
in-house and external.
As part of our in-house safety training, personnel will be made to undergo basic
orientation in fire protection. The highlights will include:
1. Combustible nature of hydrocarbon.
2. Source of ignition.
3. Theory of combustion and extinction.
4. Product of fire.
5. Classes of fire.
6. Methods of fire spread.
7. Control of fire.
Training will bring the following benefits.

1. Workers will know how to perform their jobs correctly and safely.
2. They will be aware of the consequences of their actions during the work.
3. They will be aware of the hazards existing in the operation and the necessary
precautionary actions to be taken.
4. They will understand why the work should be done that way.

15 16.0 FIRE PROTECTIVE AND PREVENTIVE MEASURES

Fire prevention is the best way to avoid fire. Because fire is a rapid chemical reaction, it
can be prevented by ensuring that the elements (Fuel, oxygen and ignition source)
required for the chemical reaction do not come together. Good housekeeping, proper
work procedures and supervisory attention will prevent the outbreak of fire:
a. Smoking will be prohibited in areas where batteries are being charged because
hydrogen gas, which is a flammable gas, is produced during the charging process.
b. No smoking signs will be positioned in gas and other easily flammable materials
area.
c. Smoking and use of naked flames such as matches and lighters will be prohibited
in flammable area.
d. Oily rags will be kept in containers that are emptied at frequent intervals.
e. Only approved containers for diesel and other fuel will be used.
f. When pouring or pumping diesel or similar materials a metallic contact will be

maintained between the containers. A bonding strap will be used.

16 17.0 ENVIRONMENTAL GUIDELINES

As is clearly stated in our HSE policy, GINGORD is committed to the protection and
preservation of the environment in its area of operations.
To achieve this, GINGORD will operate in line with its HSE management system as
stated in this manual. This includes:
16.1 17.1 Communication

Environmental hazards will be identified and communicated to all by means of reports
and hazard signs.
16.2 17.2 Operational Control

GINGORD will identify those operations and activities that are associated with the
identified significant environmental aspect in line with its environmental policy, objectives
and targets. These activities will be planned in order to ensure that they are carried out
under specified conditions by:
a. Establishing and maintaining a document procedure to cover situations where their
absence could lead to deviations from the environmental policy and the objective
and targets.
b. Establishing and maintaining plans related to the identifiable significant
environmental aspect of goods and services used and
c. communicating these plans and requirement to suppliers and sub-contractors.
16.3 17.3 Monitoring and Measurement

GINGORD will monitor on regular basis, the key characteristics of its operations and
activities that can have a significant impact on the environment. This will include the
recording of information to track performance, relevant operation controls and
conformance with GINGORD’s environmental objectives and targets.
16.4 17.4 Environmental Audit

GINGORD will periodically carry out environmental audits to determine whether the
planned environmental management system is feasible.
GINGORD will ensure that the specific environmental plan is properly implemented and
maintained.
Ref. NO.
DATE: 19-03-2024 Page 44 of 63
Information on the result of audits will be made available to management.
16.5 17.5 Basic Behavioral Safety-BBS

Statistics from the environment indicates that in 75 to 95 percent of all accidents,
employee behavior provides an important link-the link that often paves the way for man
pre-existing factors to come together in a negative event. It guides against human
behavior through influencing behavior, and preventing the last link from occurring.
Behavior based safety can reduce accidents and injury rates.
Behavior based safety is a natural progression of safety management from the highly
instituted, highly discipline early approaches with perspective legislation and
punishment, through the procedural/engineered systems which most progressive
companies have long since established, to a system which recognizes workers as
mature human beings with a genuine interest in their own well-being, who contributes
best when they can see that they themselves can have an influence on their own safety.
To achieve this transition is to change the culture and attitude of the approach, which will
not provide instantaneous results. Human behavior is often categorized as
reflective/automatic, intended and habitual.
The habitual category is the focus of the behavioral approach. Focusing on behavior is
not for the purpose of blaming or punishing workers, such measures are largely counter
case, some of the behavior associated with incidents is encouraged or condoned by
management systems, behavior is a function of consequences, Immediate and Certain.
Major Principles to be adopted includes:

 Recognizing behavioral component
 Sound behavioral science
 Employees agree: facilities safe, procedures adequate and training effectiveness.
 Positive feedback and helpful coaching
 Broad employee understanding
 Widespread participation
 Employees can get safety problems fixed
 Break down barriers to change
GINGORD will participate in any training organized by the client as a way of taking a
proactive measure to ensure a zero incident on Work place. The management shall also
organize a refresher course for all her employees to keep up to date information.

16.6 17.6 Pollution Control

To prevent pollution of the environment, all GINGORD equipment will be maintained to
reduce the emission of smoke and the dripping of oil.
In the course of operations if any equipment is observed to be leaking oil, a drip- plate
will be positioned to collect the oil drip in the interim before the equipment is sent for
repairs.
As stated above, containment will be provided to avoid oil pollution.
Waste will not be thrown into any body of water.
Summarily effort will be geared towards elimination of all forms of hazardous discharge
to land, water and air.
16.7 17.7 Waste Management

Waste management will involve the collection, segregation, storage and proper disposal
of waste to the nearest government approved dump Work places. To this effect,
emphasis will be laid on;
 Source reduction.
 Improved housekeeping.
 Waste skips (buckets) will be provided to accommodate different categories of
waste.
 Metals will be collected in metal skips (bucket)
 Wood, paper and other burnable materials will be collected in burnable skips.
 Organic waste will be collected in skips for organic materials
 Used oil will be collected in drums and sent to GINGORD’s used oil containment
area.
 Used batteries will NOT be mixed with burnable, metal or organic waste; they will
be stored separately in a designated safe area and labeled.
The color specification of waste bins shall be Green for glasses, Blue for burnable and
Yellow for non-burnable for easy waste segregation and evacuation by third party or
short Service Contractor.

18 19.0 EMERGENCY RESPONSE AND EVACUATION PLAN

An emergency response plan is an organized arrangement of response efforts by every
employee at the work place to any incident that may result in uncontrollable release of
harmful substances, loss of life or property.
The benefit of the plan is that it minimizes confusion and eliminates in decision.
The emergency response plan for specific projects will be posted on billboards
strategically located on Work place. (See Appendix 2- Work place Medical
Emergency Evacuation Procedure).
18.1
18.2 19.1 Medical Emergency Rescue (MEDIRESCUE)
Medical emergency rescue will require removing a victim from his immediate
environment of inherent exposure to bodily danger or harm.
In any rescue mission, a proper knowledge of such operation is very vital. Generally the
following procedure will be followed:
 Before attempting to rescue a victim, personnel will ensure their own safety.
 Determine the cause of the incident.
 If it is electrocution, do not touch or attempt to drag the victim out of the source of
the electrocution, instead switch off the power from the main control.
 If the victim is trapped in a fire or drowning in water, do not attempt to rescue if you
are not trained to do so. If none of the above exists, carefully bring the victim out of
the danger zone.
 Send for a medic immediately.
 Before a medic arrives, give first aid where possible e.g. position the victim in such
a way as to stop bleeding, give artificial respiration etc.
18.3 19.2 Medical Emergency Evacuation Plan (MEDVAC)

GINGORD’s target is to execute each project without any fatality. However in the advent
of any emergency situation, workers will be alerted to such situation by the use of an
alarm system. The alarm system to be used in any location will be communicated to the
workers during the project safety orientation.
If a fatality occurs which may result in medical emergency; the following sequence will
be followed:
Ref. NO.
DATE: 19-03-2024 Page 51 of 63
 The Work place medic will give first aid to the victim and will report the
incident/accident immediately to the immediate supervisor.
 The victim’s supervisor will report the incident to the safety officer.
 The safety officer will initiate a medevac following the sequence outlined below. He
will also set up an investigation to determine the root cause of the incident. (See
Appendix 1- Work-place Medical Emergency Evacuation Procedure).
18.4 19.3 Procedure

 All injuries or fatality requiring emergency medical attention will be reported.
 Such reports will include brief details of incident/accident, the exact location and the
identity of the injured person.

immediate supervisor. This report may be verbal, but will be followed by a written report.
This report will indicate the name of the victim, location of incident, nature of incident,
date and time of occurrence and any other information that may be useful for
investigation and aid. The report will take particular care to delineate the measures taken
to prevent recurrence of the accident.
The Supervisor in conjunction with the safety personnel on Work place will investigate
the accident, which will be communicated to top management immediately for further
investigations and actions required.
All Loss Time incidents (LTI) will be reported to management.

The HSE Co-ordinator will monitor the number of first aid injuries that occurred to keep
track of trends and unusual numbers that may require remedial action on the part of
management and the HSE Department.
The importance of immediate accident reporting will be communicated to all employees
at weekly safety meetings, and through the use of posters, signs, and other
communicative means.
Most accidents and losses are as a result of poor communication.
Prior to any job the supervisor will brief his crew while considering suggestions from
them.
Workers will maintain the formal communication channel. Communication radios will be
used on Work place to enhance easy flow of information.
In cases of emergency, any available radio will be used to relay the information to all
concerned. Communication will be a very vital tool during simultaneous operations.

23 24.0 COMMUNITY RELATIONS

Since our inception in 2003, GINGORD have ceaselessly aimed at initiating and
sustaining a very cordial relationship and harmony with our host communities and their
leaders.
As an indigenous Company that has worked and participated in few projects in both
offshore and onshore in Nigeria, we have acquired experience in community relations.
Out of this experience, we have been able to chart solid community relations with our
host.
Mutual respect has become the guiding principle backed by understanding based on the
need for economic improvement of both the Company and the community.
Based on this, GINGORD has adopted the following principles.
Recruitment
1. 50% of unskilled labour requirement for any project will be sourced from the host
community were available.
2. Consideration will be given to the host community for skilled and highly skilled
manpower requirement where they are available.
Remuneration
The company operates a standard remuneration scale commensurate with what is
obtained in the market. In special cases, the company may enter into negotiations with
the community representatives to decide an appropriate remuneration.
Community Relations and Meetings

At the commencement of any project within a community, a channel of cordial
relationship is opened through the office of the community liaison officer who initiates
meetings with the community leaders as and when necessary. This depends on the
type of project and its duration.
Community Politics
GINGORD will not engage directly or indirectly in any local community politics nor
interfere in the administrative processes of a particular village except when invited by the
leaders of the community.
Assistance
GINGORD will assist host communities especially in educational and other self help
development projects that offer / provide improved living standards to the members of
the community in which we operate.
We also listen to the members of the community on the best ways we can assist in
improving their economic and social well-being.
Ref. NO.
DATE: 19-03-2024 Page 59 of 63
Health
Our work place clinics will be open to emergency cases involving members of our host
communities.
We will conduct in-house assessment of the level of relationship we have with the host
community and seek ways of improvement.
Our basic goal has been and will be to operate with minimum negative impact on the
host community so that at any point in time, we find it better than we met it.
Security
GINGORD engages the service of a security company – Klassic Security Services.
Security is provided for all our work place by employing guards to control movement in
and out of the office. They will also ensure that materials and equipment are
safeguarded. For specific projects, security plan will be prepared where necessary.
Access
Every visitor will be required to put on and display conspicuously the visitors’ identity
card. Workers will be required to wear their identity cards whilst on the premises. All
vehicles entering and leaving the premises will be subject to checking and cross
checking (NO EXCEPTIONS).
Project Specific Community Relation Plan

A community relation plan will be prepared for all projects outside GINGORD base. The
plan will act as a guideline for establishing a mutual relationship with the host
community.
The plan will among other things establish the following:
1 Pre-mobilization meeting with the host community
2 Employment of labour from the community
3 Procedure for Settlement of disputes
4 Communication
5 Relationship with host community

24 25.0 BEST PRACTICES
24.1 25.1 Participative Safety

Participative safety is behavioural change approach to safety.
24.2 25.2 Principles

 Removing some controls while retaining accountability.
 Increasing the accountability of the individual for his own work.
 Introducing new and more difficult task not previously handled e.g. hazard
identification.
 Granting additional authority to an employee in his activity – job freedom.
 Assigning individuals specific or specialized tasks enabling them to become expert.
 Making periodic reports available directly to the workers.
24.2.1 25.2.1 Group Participation

Experience has shown that one of the best ways to achieve result in any organization is
to evolve a program of total participation. This is also applicable to any safety program.
A positive and modern approach to safety tends to define the role group participation
plays in industrial safety.
According to Dan Petersen”, a group is a number of people who interact or communicate

regularly and who see themselves as a unit distinct from other collection of people”.
They have something in common that binds them together. They are interdependent on
each other.
24.2.2 25.2.2 Supervisors’ Role

Every work group has a supervisor. The supervisor plays a very important role in
ensuring the safety of his or her team. He helps the team to interpret safety rules, while
drawing from his wealth of experience he should also pilot the group by showing good
examples and leading the group in developing its safety rules.
24.2.3 25.2.3 Workers’ Role

Group participation means that everybody in the group is part of the decision to evolve a
workable means of implementing safety policies. It therefore becomes the responsibility
of all in the group to ensure that their colleagues adhere to the laid down safety rules. A
Ref. NO.
DATE: 19-03-2024 Page 61 of 63
violation of the rule by one person affects the whole group. This way the group sets a
safety goal for themselves and it is easier to achieve the goal they set for themselves.
This is true because people like to do what they have collectively decided to do rather
than what they are compelled to do.
24.2.4 25.2.4 Safety Personnel’s Role

The safety officers’ role in participative safety becomes that of providing professional
help and advice to the various groups, providing technical information and overall
supervisory role on all safety matters. Members of the different groups are advised to
ask questions and express their ideas towards improving their safety.
24.2.5 25.2.5 Expected Benefit

Group participation enhances teamwork; changes unsafe behaviour of individuals
creates new safety attitudes and channels the effort of all towards the overall safety goal
of the organization. Working in the interest of the group becomes a normal behaviour
and working against the interest of the group becomes abnormal behaviour. The older
employees are instinctively compelled to make definite effort to ensure that new workers
work safely.
24.3 25.3 Safety by Objective

Safety by objective is the pivot of our risk management and safety program. Safety by
objective in this context is defined as a process whereby superior and subordinate
managers jointly identify common goals, define each individual’s major area of
responsibility in terms of expected results. And use these measures as guides for
operating the unit and assessing the contributions of each of its members.
24.3.1 25.3.1 Stop Program

Adopted From Dupont
 Stop program for supervisors – unit 1to 7 + refresher unit
 Introduction
 Personal protective equipment
 Position of people
 Reaction of people
 Tools and equipment
