6. Staggering gait
7. Thick tongue sensation
8. Slurred speech
9. Drooling
10. Muscle twitches
11. Abdominal pain and cramps
12. Respiratory depression
These symptoms usually subside within 48 hours, although stings from a bark-scorpion can be life-
threatening.
Preventing Scorpion Stings
Workers should take the following steps to prevent scorpion stings:
1. Wear long sleeves and pants.
2. Wear leather gloves.
3. Shake out clothing or shoes before putting them on.
4. Workers with a history of severe allergic reactions to insect bites or stings should consider
carrying an epinephrine auto injector (EpiPen) and should wear a medical identification
bracelet or necklace stating their allergy.
First Aid
Workers should take the following steps if they are stung by a scorpion:
 Contact a qualified health care provider or poison control centre for advice and medical
instructions.
 Ice may be applied directly to the sting site (never submerge the affected limb in ice water).
Remain relaxed and calm.
 Do not take any sedatives.
 Capture the scorpion for identification if it is possible to do so safely.
SNAKE BITES
We shall protect our workers from snake bites by training them accordingly.
Symptoms of Snake Bites
Signs or symptoms associated with a snake bite may vary depending
on the type of snake, but may include:
1. A pair of puncture marks at the wound

3. Severe pain at the site of the bite
4. Nausea and vomiting
5. Laboured breathing (in extreme cases, breathing may stop altogether)
6. Disturbed vision
7. Increased salivation and sweating
8. Numbness or tingling around your face and/or limbs.
Recommendations for Protecting Workers
We shall protect their workers from venomous snake bites by training them about:
1. Their risk of exposure to poisonous snakes
2. How to identify poisonous snakes

3. How to prevent snake bites
4. What they should do if they are bitten by a snake
Preventing Snake Bites
Workers should take the following steps to prevent a snake bite:
1. Do not try to handle any snake.
2. Stay away from tall grass and piles of leaves when possible.
3. Avoid climbing on rocks or piles of wood where a snake may be hiding.
4. Be aware that snakes tend to be active at night and in warm weather.

14. Do not apply ice or immerse the wound in water.
15. Do not drink alcohol as a painkiller.
16. Do not drink caffeinated beverages.

13. Risk Assessment and Mitigation Procedures
The objective of hazards analysis and management is to provide a means where by hazards or
potential hazards are identified and managed in a way that eliminates or reduces to an acceptable
level, the risk of an incident occurring.
We will establish and maintain a programme for the identification and assessment of hazards.
This programme should be aimed at:
1. Recording of known hazards.
2. Identification of new hazard.
3. Analysis of the effects or the potential effects resulting from these
hazards.
4. Development and implementation of means to eliminate the hazard or to manage the
hazard in a way that represents on acceptably low risk or incident.
We will ensure that persons responsible for the analysis of hazards and for determining the means
of eliminating or reducing any safety risks are:
 Technically competent
 Necessary support will be given so that they can effectively perform their duties.
Risk Assessment & Hazard Analysis shall be an internal part of all method statements and to be
submitted & approved before commencement of any work.
CONTROL OF MOVEMENT AND USE OF HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS AND
SOLVENTS
 The objective is to provide a means whereby the receipt, movement, storage
and use of hazardous material is managed in a way that eliminates, or reduces
to an unacceptably low level, the risk of an incident occurring
 Every worksite will maintain a record of hazardous material complied from material safety
data sheets (MSDS) or from other analysis.
 A technically competent person will receive the material and ensure its safe storage or
distribution.
 Designated storage areas for hazardous material should be appropriate for the
material and should be secure against unauthorized access.

 The Occupier should ensure that personnel involved with the storage, handling and use of
hazardous materials are competent and are fully aware of the safeguards and measures.
14. SAFE WORK PROCEDURE
As Per K.D. & Partners (J V) during all activities, the hierarchy of risk control or principles of
prevention and protection will be as following:
1. Consider if the hazard can be prevented from arising so that the risk can be avoided.
2. If this cannot be achieved, the risk will be combated at source.
3. After this priority will be given to apply measures to control the risk.
4. After this PPE will Be provided according to the work.
Risk Assessment will be attached with all “Method statements”.

Format of risk assessment
Color-coding is crucial for a 5×5 risk assessment matrix template to represent the combination level
of probability and severity of the identified risks. That said, high risks must be in red, moderate risks
in yellow (amber), and low risks in green.
Probability
Also called likelihood, the Probability (x-axis) pertains to the extent of how likely it is for the risk to
occur. The 5 risk rating levels under this component are as follows:
Unlikely – possible to happen and/or to have moderate consequences
Moderate – likely to happen and/or to have serious consequences
Likely – almost sure to happen and/or to have major consequences
Severity
Also called consequences, (y-axis) aims to determine the level of effects that the hazard can cause to
workplace health and safety.
While a 5×5 risk matrix can be tailored to the needs of an organization, the following represent the
general terms used to describe the 5 levels to determine the risk’s impact:
Insignificant – won’t cause serious injuries or illnesses
Minor – can cause injuries or illnesses, only to a mild extent
Significant – can cause injuries or illnesses that may require medical attention but limited treatment
Major – can cause irreversible injuries or illnesses that require constant medical attention
Severe – can result in fatality
Each risk box represents the rating of a risk that is calculated based on its particular levels of
probability and impact. In most cases, the 5×5 risk matrix uses numeric values to better represent
the risk ratings.
Calculating Risks Using the 5×5 Risk Matrix
Probability x Severity = Risk Level
The first step is to assign a numeric value from 1 to 5, 1 being the lowest, for each of the categories
under Probability and Impact. Then, use the formula of multiplying the value of the Probability to
the value of Impact to determine the Risk Level.
To better understand how the various levels indicate the Probability and Impact, here’s a guide on
the numeric values and their representation as a result of the analysis:
1-4: Acceptable – no further action may be needed and maintaining control measures is encouraged
5-9: Adequate – may be considered for further analysis
10-16: Tolerable – must be reviewed in a timely manner to carry out improvement strategies
17-25: Unacceptable – must implement cease in activities and endorse for immediate action
1. WORKING AT HEIGHT.
Introduction
 Any work being carried out at a height of 2 meters or more is to be considered as Working at
height.
 Provide and ensure safe access and working platform for the working at height.
 Dropping of material from height should be strictly prohibited.

and acts shall be adhered to. In general, it is required that the scaffold shall be of adequate
strength stability, good construction.
2. Material and related permanent structures shall be at all stages of construction be safely
supported against collapse. All scaffold materials shall be free from patent defects.
3. The works supervisor shall assign a competent approved person (CAP) to the site to
supervise all aspects related to the erection, maintenance and dismantling of scaffold.
4. The scaffolding erectors should use safety lines to anchor their body harness in the process
of erection and dismantling. These safety lines should be securely anchored onto an
expansion bolt anchored on to the roof of the building or to any other adequately strong
anchorage.
5. Scaffold erectors should not be allowed to work on scaffold without the use of body harness,
safety lines and helmets.
6. Handrails and intermediate guard rails shall be provided along each ledger level
approximately 1.1m and 600 mm above each ledge respectively. Where safe access to the
scaffold from the building or structure is not available, ladders should be provided. This is to
avoid workers having to scale a scaffold. Toe boards should also be added onto platforms on
scaffolds to prevent materials falling over it.
7. Materials should not be allowed to be discharged from the side of the building and hitting
the scaffold structure as serious damage such as broken ledgers and dislodged tie-backs
could result.
8. Scaffolds should not be used as supports for hoisting materials unless it is designed for and
approved.
9. All scaffolding that are in the process of erection, alteration and dismantling shall be
properly
indicated and warned to make sure that no workers will use such scaffold. Access to the
scaffolds can only be allowed, after it is fully completed and checked. All scaffolding
structure built must display Scaffolding Tag.
10. A tag indicating that the scaffolds is "NOT SAFE FOR USE" if it is incomplete, has been
damaged or weakened.
11. A tag indicating that the scaffolds are "SAFE FOR USE" if the works are completed checked
for safety and certified.
12. Excess materials shall not be placed on the work floor or runway, avoid storage or deposit
materials on the working platform.
13. Materials, tools and equipment which may be displaced or fall from the scaffold shall be
secured adequately.

lowered; this will prevent them from being damaged.
2. Pallets should be of adequate strength and the platforms rose above 150mm above
ground. This will prevent the scaffolding members from coming into contact with the
ground thus preventing damp and rust.
3. Pallets provide with mesh guards or proper boxes should be used for storing scaffolding
fittings.
4. Timber scaffolding boards should be bounded with galvanized steel
straps at both ends to prevent splitting.
5. Timber scaffolding boards should be stacked on dun age and maybe stacked on top of
each other up to a height of about 1.2m. The top most boards should be weighted down
to prevent warp. It should be stacked in a way that they cannot fall unexpectedly or
shaken loose.
6. All materials should be placed on pre-assigned space and not left on the aisle.
Inspection and Record
All scaffolds shall not be used unless it has been registered and subsequently inspected by a
competent person within the previous seven (7) Days and a report made out on the specified report
form attached. For suspended scaffold daily pre-operation check is required and a thorough check at
least once in every twelve months by a competent person.
Scaffolds on most sites are used fairly constantly so that inspection is required to be carried out
every seven days and the records should be kept at site for ready inspection by various interested
parties such as employer’s representative, safety committee members, etc. Inspection of all
scaffolding is advisable, immediately after a major storm or strong wind occurrence at the site.

 Scrap Steel /Electrical/Welding Buds
 Used oil / Used Batteries
 Excavated Soil
 Concrete Waste
 Infectious waste
Segregation of waste
Segregation and store waste at the source of generation, after identifying whether it is hazardous or
non-hazardous. Collect the segregated waste in various containers and bins as detailed below:
Collection of waste
Collection all the segregation waste in a bin or a container in a common storage area. If required,
further segregation should be done, before it is finally treated and disposed of.
Record keeping and storage of waste
Maintain proper records of the waste generated, classifying its type, characteristics, quantity, the
time when waste is generated, how hazardous waste are stored and finally the detail of the waste
hauler who collect or process the waste.
It is necessary to have four separate storage areas at construction site. They are:
1) Non-hazardous waste storage area.
2) Hazardous waste storage area.
3) Scrap yard storage area.
3) Oil storage area (fresh and used waste oil).
The storage area for hazardous waste and the scrap yard should be operated and maintained in
accordance with the following practices:
1) Storage areas should be clearly indicated with sing identifying the type of material or waste being
stored.
2) Where appropriate, the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) should be displayed in closed
proximity.
3) Suitable fire protection should be provided.
4) Access routes should be maintained clearly.

5) Storage area should be kept and clean and tidy.
6) All hazardous waste storage should display symbol and labels showing the type of the hazardous
waste.
7) All the waste should be weighed before storage to keep track of the records.
8) Outside the oil storage area, oil spill kit should be kept ready, to act on spillages.
Period of Storage of Waste
1. Dry waste such as paper, wood, and packing materials should be store for a maximum of six
months or as specified.
2. Wet waste (such as food waste) should be stored for not more than a day before
composting, to prevent generation of odour.
3. Hazardous waste should be stored for a maximum of three months from the date of
generation, as specified in the material safety data sheet or mandated by legislation. A
maximum 1000 kg (all hazardous waste put together) should be stored at a time.

INTRODUCTION
It is an accepted fact that no matter how well a process is controlled and safeguarded by
instruments and process safety procedures, it is inevitable that there is a residual risk, which is
capable of causing a variety of emergencies in any organization. Such Emergencies could be the
result of malfunction or non-observance of operating procedures / instructions. It could at times, be
the consequence of acts or omissions outside the control of plant management. Hence the need
to prepare an “EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN” (ERP) for dealing with incidents which may still occur
and are likely to affect HEALTH SAFETY, LIFE, PROPERTY and ENVIRONMENT both at the site and in
the immediate neighbourhood. An ERP mitigates effects of a major accident / Emergency, it also
helps to contain the after effects within the boundary of the site.
An emergency is a situation, which may cause serious injury, loss of life, damage to property,
environmental pollution etc, and due to major calamity occurring at the site. This ERP explains
the code of conduct of all personnel at the site & Response team along with the actions to be
carried out in the event of an emergency. This plan is guideline for employees, contractors, vendors,
visitors etc. It not only defines responsibilities, but also informs about prompt rescue operations,
medical treatment, co-ordination and communication among various team members
for an ERP. Speed is the essence and actions must be executed in a planned manner at utmost
speed. The plan should be such that it would avoid confusion in passage of orders and its execution
on ground, all efforts must be directed to avoid panic to set-in during an emergency. Panic can be
avoided by regular mock drills, practice and knowledge of responsibility by each individual during
emergency. The hazard and risk assessment of site brings out improvement to eliminate or reduce
the hazard. The Management should prepare an on-site plan based on residual risks. This plan must
be specific to the need of the site i.e. Size, complexity, nature and quantum of hazard. Each on site
plan will therefore be different. But there is certain element essential to every plan and these are: -
 Assessment of size and nature of events and the probability.

 Assessment of resources available at site with outside agencies.
 Procedure for raising alarm and communication within and outside works.
 Appointment of key personal and defining their duties.
 Provision of emergency control centres.
 Action required on site.
 Action required off site.
To be effective, a plan should be able to quickly initiate action inside and outside the site. Time
element in each step of the plan is very important and realistic estimates should be made while
making the plan.
OBJECTIVES
The objectives of ERP are to identify the known and potential emergencies of the organization and
describe the installation’s emergency preparedness/ response organization, the resources available
and the response actions applicable to deal with various types of emergencies that could occur at
the installation. The “response organization structure” should exhibit an ability to be deployed in the
shortest time possible during an emergency.
Thus, the overall objectives of an ERP are: -
 To control the emergency, localize it and if possible, terminate it earliest.

 To avoid confusion / panic and to handle the emergency with clear instructions and control.
 To minimize the effects of the emergency / accident on people and property and also to
minimize the collateral damage to the environment in and around our premises.
 Passage of vital information to all concerned in the hierarchy for assistance and information.
 To synergies the total effort towards mitigation of emergency.
 To restore normalcy in work after an emergency.
 Proper accounting of damages / losses suffered during emergency, and restoration of the
normal functioning.
