1. Introduction Safety is all about preventing accidents. Accidents are unwanted experiences in our daily life resulting in personnel injury, financial loss or damage to the environment. Utmost care is to be taken to provide a working environment in which daily tasks can be performed without hazards. This safety handbook is a guide and brief summary of the procedures contained within the Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) Management system of Mushrif Trading and Contracting Company. Also highlights the minimum safe work practices and standards related to the major hazards and causes of fatalities occurring in the construction industry. You are encouraged to review these procedures if you require further detailed information, you can also contact the worksite safety officer or refer Mushrif Health and Safety Manual for further clarification. HSE is line responsibility. Managers and supervisors have in that respect a special and personal duty to actively work for a continuous HSE improvement within their part of the organization. In order to minimize the hazards to personnel, equipment and the environment at our worksites, certain rules and regulations have to be adhered to. Not following these rules and regulations, or standard safe working practices will result in disciplinary action which may include dismissal and removal form the worksite. Study this book and carry it with you at all times whilst in the workplace and refer to it as necessary as it provides the minimum standard of HSE procedures that you will be required to follow. Also keep updating your Training details, PPE registry details in the space provided in the end of this booklet. Welcome to Mushrif and hope your time with us will be enjoyable, safe and rewarding.

8. Safe System of Work Basic safe work practices should be observed by every employee working on the job site. The objective of the safety program is to prevent injuries and to allow you to do the job efficiently and safely.

All employees must follow Safe work practices giving every possible aid to enable safe operations and be a part of the Safety program by reporting all unsafe conditions or practices to their Supervisor or Safety Representative. The vast majority of work related injuries are the result of unsafe acts of workers, when they take shortcuts and violating safety regulations or not considering safety seriously.

As a Principal Contractor Mushrif has a responsibility to make sure that all employees and contractors observe and obey all applicable rules, procedures or other instructions to ensure safe conduct of work. In line with the Mushrif Health and Safety Policy, all employees are expected to work in a safe manner at all times. All tasks will be carried out in line with the following: • The task must be assessed and all the activity thoroughly planned.

•

The workforce must be organized and sure of their roles and responsibilities

•

The planned procedures must be adhered to during the work.

•

Any changes to the work scope will be identified to the workforce and thoroughly explained. If the activity is to be suspended for any time e.g. meal breaks etc. the workplace to be left in a safe manner. All tasks to be completed with highest safety standards.

• •

9. Violation and Infringements The purpose of safety rule enforcement employees. One employee's unsafe safety of other employees and safety is behavior or unsafe conditions. safety rules or working in a n unsafe a written safety warning & measures to Minor violation - Warning will serve as a procedure. Major violation or repeated minor may be taken leads to penalty,

is the protection of all behavior can affect the important to prevent unsafe Employee violating the manner will be provided with correct it. reminder for the proper violation - Disciplinary action suspension or termination.

10. Safety and Health Training Safety Training is an essential component of an effective company safety program. Employees need to be trained in the recognition and avoidance of unsafe conditions as part of company profitability and professional development. The development and maintenance of a safe working culture can only be effective if everyone is included and actively involved in the training. The use of training is an invaluable means of involving those most at risk. The primary aim of the site HSE induction is to provide new employee with a brief overview of HSE policies, procedures practices and hazard communications at Mushrif operations and to provide them with a basic understanding of their own HSE responsibilities. After completion of the site HSE induction training, “Employee’s commitment to safety” form to be get signed from the employee and Mushrif induction sticker will be provided in the helmet. Toolbox talks are essential reminder for the potential hazard associated with the planned work and accordingly execute control measures prior to start the work. It is also an effective means of increasing HSE skill of workers on the risks involved and the precautions required in their daily activities. Implementing an efficient system of conducting daily toolbox talks can play a major role in avoidance of unsafe conditions as part of company profitability and professional development.

Hence Mushrif emphasize toolbox talks to be delivered by supervisory staff every day to all operatives. Further once in a week the same will be done by safety personnel.

11. Incident Reporting If injured on the job, report the injury immediately to your foreman or supervisor. Don't wait. Report all the injury when it occurs, even if you believe that medical treatment is not necessary. Medical treatment will be provided if it is necessary Remember – We all believe in the NO BLAME culture – to enable the root causes to be identified and prevention of a recurrence. (For further details refer IMS Manual Section B 1.8 HSP2 Accident and Incident Reporting)

12. Permit to work Permit to work has been established to maintain control of hazardous work being carried out on the worksite and to ensure that all necessary safety precautions are carried out. It should be noted that a work permit does not guarantee safety; an accident can occur at any time and safety rules must be always followed. Work Permits are issued for the following types of work: • Hot Works •

Radiography

• Confined Spaces • Excavation • Electrical Works • Energizing / Isolation It identifies conditions and limits potentially harmful effects on the person carrying out the work by specifying safety precautions to be followed during work activity. It gives a comprehensive and detailed record of all ongoing work, control of the work situation and avoids conflicting or incompatible work being carried out simultaneously.

13. Horse Play Horseplay ("practical jokes", playing tricks on other employees) is a serious threat to safety. It can and does result in injury and in some cases even fatality. Horseplay should never be tolerated in the workplace. Managers and Supervisors have direct responsibility for controlling such behavior. Employees found to have contributed to any adverse consequences, in particular an injury or worse, will be subject to disciplinary action

14. Alcohol and Drugs Anyone known to be under the influence of drugs or intoxicating substances that impair his / her ability to perform the assigned duties safely shall not be allowed on the job in that condition. If you are taking medication prescribed by a physician or taking over-the-counter medication, inform your supervisor before you begin work. Some medications may spoil your ability to work or operate equipment safely. No one shall knowingly be permitted or required to work while his / her ability or alertness is so impaired by fatigue, illness, or other causes that they might unnecessarily expose the employee or others to injury.

15. First Aid First Aid is the initial emergency care given immediately upon arrival at the scene to an ill or injured person and continues until professional medical assistance takes over the care of the casualty (such as an ambulance officer or doctor) The principles of first aid are simple.

•

Commonsense is the most important factor in first aid.

•

Having the ability to stay calm in emergency situations.

•

More mistakes are made in first aid by not looking rather than not knowing.

•

Having the knowledge to treat various illnesses and injuries.

A first aider should always seek permission from a conscious casualty prior to rendering any assistance. Once you begin to render assistance you have a responsibility to provide first aid in accordance with your level of training and experience A first aider’s role is to: •

Preserve life.

•

Protect the unconscious casualty.

•

Prevent the condition worsening.

•

Promote recovery.

•

Call for medical assistance

Recognize life threatening emergencies When you approach a victim, go through the following steps to detect life threatening emergencies. Check A

Airway

B

Breathing

C

Circulation

Check the scene for safety. If it is not safe for you to help, call an ambulance immediately. If it is safe, check the victim’s consciousness. If victim is unconscious,

•

Open the airway – gently tilt the head back and lift the chin.

•

Check for breathing – place your ear near the victim’s mouth.

•

Listen for breathing and look down the chest.

•

If the victim’s airway is open but he is not breathing, check his pulse.

•

Finally look for severe bleeding.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a procedure to support and maintain breathing and circulation for a person who has stopped breathing (respiratory arrest) and/or whose heart has stopped (cardiac arrest).

It should always be performed by the person on the scene who is certified and most experienced in CPR.

16. Heat Stress and Stroke Working in Hot environment can cause heat to build up in the body. Heat stress occurs when the body’s cooling system cannot get rid of the heat fast enough. Heat stress can lead to heat exhaustion, which is serious, or heat stroke, which can kill you. The following table identifies each condition, the signs and symptoms and recommended first aid. Heat Stress Disorders Condition

Signs and Symptoms

First Aid

Heat Rash - Usually occurs in hot and humid environments where sweat cannot evaporate easily. If a rash covers a large area it may become very uncomfortable.

• Rash characterized by small pink or red bumps; • Irritation or prickly sensation; and • Itching

• Keep skin clean and dry to prevent infection; • Wear loose cotton clothing; • Take a cool bath or sit in the air conditioning to ease irritation; • Some lotions help ease the pain and itching

Heat Cramps - Muscle spasms which usually affect the arms, legs, or stomach and generally occur from heavy exercise or intensive works done in hot environments. Inadequate fluid intake often leads to heat cramps.

• Cramping or spasms of muscles; • May occur during or after work or a few hours later

• Rest briefly in a cool or shaded area and cool down; • Drink an electrolyte containing drink such as Gatorade; • If the cramps are severe or do not go away after 1 hour, seek medical attention

Heat Exhaustion - Is more serious than heat cramps. It occurs when the body’s internal air conditioning system is overworked, but hasn’t completely shut down. It occurs because the body has lost large amounts of water and salt through excessive sweating.

• Cool, moist skin, ashen complexion; • Headache;• Intense thirst; • Dizziness, • Feeling faint; • Low grade fever; • Heavy sweating; • Weak or tired; • Rapid pulse rate, and/or low blood pressure.

• Move the person to a cool location and lie down with feet slightly elevated; • Loosen or remove the person’s clothing and apply cool wet cloths or direct a fan towards them; • Drink cool water or drink. But make sure the drink is not too cold • Monitor the person closely. Heat exhaustion can quickly become heat stroke. • If the person has a fever greater than 102O F, faints, has confusion or seizures call for medical assistance

Heat Stroke - This is the most serious health-related illness. It is life threatening with high death rate if it is onset. Heat stroke occurs when the body has depleted its supply of water and salt and the victim’s body temperature rises to deadly levels. The body is not able to regulate its core temperature.

• The victim stops sweating

• Remove any unnecessary clothing and place the person on their side to expose as much skin surface as possible; • Move to a cool area, out of direct sunlight; Cool the person by sponging or spraying with cool water; • Apply ice packs to the groin, neck and arm pits; • Do not give them fluids to drink

• Rapid heartbeat; • Rapid shallow breathing; Throbbing headache; • Confused, has convulsions, and/or appears unconscious; • High body temperature of 104O F or higher

A victim’s body temperature must be lowered as quickly as possible when suffering from heat stress. Applying ice to armpits, wrist, elbows and back of the knees may reduce the possibility of permanent brain damage.

17. Emergency Response Procedure Emergency plans are required to ensure employee safety in case of fire or other emergency. Emergency plans shall be tested periodically to ensure their effectiveness.

MSDS must be present for any chemical stored or used within company facilities. It should be kept in a well marked location & it must be accessible to employees at all times. Each employee must review the MSDS for a particular chemical before working with that chemical. If required by the MSDS, employees must wear proper eye, face, hand and body protection. Always review emergency first aid procedures before use. An employee exposed to acids, caustic soda, hydrogen sulfide or other chemicals, gas or vapor should report the incident to the supervisor immediately after the emergency procedures listed in the MSDS sheet have been followed. Further treatment of chemical injuries and illnesses should be left to a physician. Do not eat, drink, smoke or chew in areas where chemicals are present. Wash hands or other areas of exposed skin after using chemicals. Never siphon liquid chemicals by mouth suction from tanks or containers. Always use a pump. When acid or other toxic substances are being pumped at high pressures, all personnel shall remain at a safe distance from the injection lines and pump, to avoid being sprayed with the contents in the event of equipment failure. Chemical containers should never be stored in direct sunlight as dangerous gas pressure can build up rupturing the container Employees involved in operations that require the handling of chemicals must know the location and operation of eye showers and eye wash stations. Flush eyewash stations and showers before handling chemicals to ensure proper operation and clean water in an emergency.
