Any piece of heavy equipment can tip over under extreme conditions or if used incorrectly; for example, at high speed,
especially going down a slope, or being near an unstable edge. To help prevent accidents, make sure you are properly trained to
operate the equipment and follow these safe work practices:
-
Always wear a seat belt to take advantage of the ROPS
protection. To survive equipment rollover, the operator
- Please note that equipment equipped with a rollover protection structure (ROPS) can still roll over.

the ROPS.
-
Do not operate the equipment in ways it was not designed for. This can increase the possibility of extension.

introduction
.2 Describe the job hazards as they relate to your project. Explain or demonstrate the safe way to do the job.
One of the most common causes of serious work-related injuries is accidents involving falling objects. You are at risk of falling objects
when you are near cranes, scaffolding, etc., or where overhead work is being performed. Injuries can range from minor abrasions
to concussions, blindness, or death. Take these precautions to prevent injury:

-
Wear the hat properly. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on how to tighten the suspension system to
achieve the proper fit.
- Inspect the hard hat before each use. Look for signs of wear, cracks, scratches, cuts, punctures, burns, or other physical
damage. Inspect the harness, headband, and attachment points for signs of cuts, tears, or worn materials.

Loading Equipment
introduction
.2 Describe the job hazards as they relate to your project. Explain or demonstrate the safe way to do the job.
Loading equipment onto trailers can result in serious injury if the equipment slips or falls. Often, the equipment will be the same
width as the trailer and there is little room for error. Regardless of the type of equipment you are loading or the type of
trailer you are using, follow these general rules:
- Make sure the equipment is in line with the trailer. Make sure
the trailer is level.
- If you are driving equipment on a trailer, watch and follow your manual.
- Before transporting, make sure the weight is evenly distributed on the trailer and the equipment is secured.

Defensive Driving
In all cases, while driving, drivers must practice defensive driving techniques. Defensive driving is the art of driving to prevent
and avoid traffic accidents, regardless of the circumstances and unsafe actions of other drivers, adverse roads or
weather conditions.
- Take a quick look ahead in the direction of travel. Look at two or three vehicles ahead of you to monitor the
driving conditions ahead. This allows you to think about a situation before you get there;
"
- Get the “big picture”; learn to see the entire road. Sweep the landscape, the sides and the back. Avoid tunnel
vision. Keep your eyes moving; position the car slightly away from traffic to increase your field of vision.
- Learn how to compensate for hazards such as weather, debris, potholes, loose gravel or sand; and
- Remember, when you enter Rotary, Massachusetts law requires you to submit to the vehicles already in

waste disposal
The best practices in waste management and disposal implemented at our sites have two main benefits:
- The site has a well-organized image, with an emphasis on safety, efficiency and environmental care.
Reducing, managing and disposing of waste properly can be economically beneficial and have
many environmental benefits .
-
Always follow waste separation procedures using appropriately marked containers to separate waste streams
that can be recycled, for example, metals, wood, plastics and paper can be recycled.
- Ensure that waste containers are close to the workplace to promote their use.
-
Remember that clean waste such as concrete and bricks
can be used as fill on site.
- It is not only solid waste that requires attention, but also liquid waste spills.
Carefully controlled waste such as oil, chemicals and wet concrete should be collected and
removed from the site by a suitable contractor.
- It is very important that the source of any waste is identified through the waste transfer note that must accompany
Waste always
- When waste is removed from site, it is vital that it is transported by registered waste management contractors
who comply with the Environmental Protection Regulations 1990 (Duty of Care Regulations). This is very
important as the contractor is responsible for the waste until it is disposed of correctly.

introduction
.2 Describe the job hazards as they relate to your project. Explain or demonstrate the safe way to do the job.
OSHA requires that a “competent person” be responsible for the safety of all workers in a trenching/excavation
operation. OSHA defines a competent person as “an individual who is able to identify present and anticipated hazards or
working conditions that are hazardous, unhealthy, or dangerous to employees and who is authorized to take prompt
corrective action to eliminate or control such hazards and conditions.” The competent person must:
- Inspect the trench, adjacent areas and any protective systems for
possible cave-ins, failure of protective systems, hazardous
atmospheres or other hazardous conditions. Inspections should
be performed daily: before work begins, throughout the work
shift, and after each rainstorm or other event that increases the risk.
- Determine and ensure the use of appropriate protection systems, work methods and personal
protective equipment (PPE) at the drilling site.
- Test for low oxygen, hazardous vapors and toxic gases, especially when operating
Gasoline engine powered equipment, or dirt contamination through leaking lines or storage
tanks. Ensure adequate ventilation or respiratory protection, if necessary.
- Provide safe access within 25 feet of workers inside and outside the excavation.

atmospheric condition
introduction
.2 Describe the job hazards as they relate to your project. Explain or demonstrate the safe way to do the job.
One of the hazards associated with excavation and trenching is the potential for hazardous atmospheres. A hazardous atmosphere is one that
may cause death, illness, or injury to persons exposed to it because it is explosive, flammable, toxic, corrosive, oxidizing, irritating,
deoxygenating, poisonous, or otherwise harmful. Hazardous atmospheres may be generated in the form of toxic gases in excavation work and
can be released by excavation or accumulate in the trench bottom. To help ensure exposure to hazardous atmospheres, follow these
steps:
-
Increase testing frequency if equipment is operating in a trench or if welding, cutting, or burning is being performed in a
trench. These operations can also generate toxic fumes.
- Take the necessary precautions to prevent employees from being exposed to atmospheres containing less than
19.5% oxygen and other hazardous atmospheres. These precautions may include:
- Ensure that employees required to wear respirators are trained, fit-tested and registered in a respiratory protection
program.

Barricades
introduction
.2 Describe the job hazards as they relate to your project. Explain or demonstrate the safe way to do the job.
An open trench can pose a hazard not only to workers on site, but also to the public. In many cases, barriers and/or warnings
are required to prevent unauthorized or accidental entry. Here are some “barricade basics” to help ensure a safe excavation
site for everyone:
- Install a barrier or fence over any excavations left unattended to protect against accidental entry by pedestrians. If the
excavation is in a remote location where residents are unlikely to visit, a barrier of posts and warning tape with
a sign will suffice. However, if the excavation is in a traveled area, a physical barrier such as a fence should isolate
it.
- Install barriers around the site to help control vehicle and pedestrian traffic.
- Install a warning system such as barricades, manual or mechanical signal, or stop logs when operating mobile
equipment near the edge of the excavation.

Underground facilities.
- Ensure the protection of workers in excavations where water accumulates. This protection includes specific
support, water removal to control the level of accumulated water, the use of lifelines and belts, and
close monitoring by a qualified person.
- Check the stability of adjacent structures or sources of vibration. Do not excavate below the footing or foundation
of a foundation, wall, sidewalk, curb, or other structure unless supports or supports are provided to prevent
collapse or the excavation is in stable rock.
The competent person must inspect the excavations daily or as site conditions change.

Vibrating white finger (VWF) can result from the transmission of vibration from a vibrating tool (such as road cutters, saws,
nail guns, etc.) to the hands, which occurs as a result of several years of regular exposure.
Primarily, it damages the blood vessels and nerves in the hand, resulting in whitening of the skin (white finger).
When exposed to cold, in addition to pain, pins and needles, numbness and loss of manual dexterity, you will experience symptoms
when exposed to cold conditions with the time it takes to recover increasing as the condition progresses. The condition may
become permanent if early symptoms are not identified and action is not taken. It is important to realize that these symptoms do

Many of the materials we use have the potential to create dust and dirt.
Fine particles of dust and dirt, once airborne, will settle into the environment and cause nuisance by staining surfaces,
as well as causing health problems.
Another common complaint directed to us as a construction company is the direct result of mud buildup on public

A forklift can be one of the most dangerous pieces of equipment in the workplace. A medium-sized forklift weighs about
the same as a medium-sized dump truck and can cause just as much damage. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics, an average of 100 workers are killed and 20,000 injured each year in forklift accidents. Forklifts can put workers
at risk of becoming trapped between equipment and materials, so take the following precautions:
Pay attention to where you place your hands and feet. Be aware of pressure points like wheels and lift
gears and stay away from them.
- Stay under the overhead guard. Keep your hands and feet inside the forklift and wear your seat belt.

especially dangerous because people often work at higher heights. Follow these safety tips when using extension
ladders:
- When choosing an extension ladder, keep in mind that the length of the ladder is
different from its usable length. The height that these ladders can safely reach
is reduced by the angle at which the ladder must be set up.
- Position the extension ladders so that the base of the ladder is one foot from the wall for
every four feet of ladder height. This ratio is important because if the angle is
too steep, you could tip over. If the angle is too horizontal, the ladder could slip out
from under you.

The term Mobile Elevated Work Platform (MEWP) covers self-propelled, pedestrian-controlled, powered mobile elevating and access
work platforms.
The Mobile Working Platform (MEWP) is designed to provide a temporary working platform that can be easily moved from one site
to another. It is particularly suitable for short-term work where the use of ladders is unsafe and the erection of scaffolding is time-
consuming and impractical.
The main risks associated with the use of mobile work platforms include:
Incorrect use
When using a mobile elevating work platform (MEWP), it is important to take the following precautions:
- Make sure you have reviewed the manufacturer's records regarding inspection, maintenance and service.
And they finished implementing it.
- Ensure that all relevant test certificates and task diagrams are provided with the device.
- Make sure you are trained before operating the machine; this is usually done by the supplier and make sure
you are familiar with the manufacturer's operating manual.
- Make sure that the safe working load (SWL), safe wind speed and safe gradient are displayed on the machine and

Bankers Guidance
- Any bank men/throwers must be qualified, i.e. they must have received formal training.
- When operating the crane, bankers must not be distracted, and must not leave the area under any
circumstances unless relieved by another competent person.
- Ensure you are aware of all relevant hazards on site including overhead power lines.
and excavations
- When using signals, stand where you can clearly see the load and the crane operator can clearly see you, and
make your signals clear and distinct using only approved symbols.
- Make sure loads are off the ground, free, and properly suspended before lifting.
- Ensure that safe working loads (SWL) are always adhered to.
- Make contact with the crane operator where possible - if you cannot see him, use radios
-

Risks
- Slippery surfaces and shoes that are not suitable for the work environment.
- Poor lighting.
Learning points
- Check the ladders and steps before working and make sure that the ladder is placed on a firm, level ground at the correct inclination (
1 in 4). Use your hands when climbing, and do not overreach when working from a ladder. When wearing a safety belt or fall
arrestor, remember to check the condition of the equipment before use and make sure people know how to use it.
- Inspect the scaffolding before work and make sure that the scaffolding is complete and that the working platforms are free from hazards.
Tripping, and in the case of mobile scaffolding, the wheels are locked to prevent movement.
- Avoid slipping by watching for hazardous working conditions - wet floors, icy areas, oils and grease, for example.
Clean up spills immediately; do not leave them for someone else.
- Avoid trips by maintaining good housekeeping, ensuring materials are stored and access routes are kept clear.
- Avoid falls by using fully guarded work platforms. When this is not practical, fall arrestors and safety belts should be
secured to a solid structure at all times while working at height. In addition, cherry pickers should be used
instead of “walking on the beam”.

Battery charging
introduction
.2 Describe the job hazards as they relate to your project. Explain or demonstrate the safe way to do the job.
Charging lead acid batteries can be hazardous. Batteries emit explosive gases when they charge, and battery
fluid contains sulfuric acid, which can harm eyes and skin if it comes in contact. Charging batteries is a common
task that many workers take for granted and fail to use safe procedures. When changing a battery, use
common sense and follow all manufacturer safety precautions.
- Make sure the positive and negative terminals are connected correctly: the positive (red) clamp to the positive
(+) post and the negative (black) clamp to the negative (-) post.
- Immediately after the battery is fully charged, turn off and unplug the charger. Continuing to charge a fully
