PREFACE

Title: JSC Safety and Health Requirements

P.1 PURPOSE

This JPR defines JSC’s Safety and Health Program and provides basic safety and health requirements for the Johnson Space Center (JSC) and for other locations under JSC’s jurisdiction.

It is important that you follow the safety and health requirements that apply to your job.

P.2 APPLICABILITY

This JPR applies to anyone at JSC or JSC field sites, unless exempted in a specific chapter. For this JPR, “JSC” includes all JSC sites in the Houston area such as Ellington Field and the Sonny Carter Training Facility. “JSC field sites” are sites under JSC control outside the Houston area, such as the White Sands Test Facility and El Paso Forward Operating Location. The JPR applies to operations involving JSC personnel or equipment at non-JSC locations, including foreign countries. See Chapter 1.3, paragraph 6, for more information on following standards at non-JSC locations. This JPR applies to other contractors, grant recipients, or parties to agreements only to the extent specified or referenced in the appropriate contracts, grants, or agreements

a. In this JPR, all mandatory actions (i.e., requirements) are denoted by statements containing the term "shall." The terms: "may" or “can” denote discretionary privilege or permission, “should” denotes a good practice and is recommended, but not required, “will” denotes expected outcome, and “are/is” denotes descriptive material.

b. In this JPR, all document citations are assumed to be the latest version unless otherwise noted.

c. The following table tells you who must follow this JPR.

If you . . . Then you shall follow . . .

Are a NASA civil service employee This JPR unless you work at a site that involves unique military equipment and operations

Are a contractor at JSC This JPR as called out in your contract. Prime contractors must flow down these requirements to subcontractors

d. If you are a federal employee working in a private employer’s facility, you are covered by the JSC safety and health program. Although NASA may not have the authority to correct hazardous conditions in a private sector workplace, NASA makes sure your working conditions are safe and healthful. NASA does this by administrative controls or personal protective equipment, or your withdrawal from the private employer’s facility.

e. If you are a private employer, neither Executive Order 12196, “Occupational Safety and Health Programs for Federal Employees,” nor this JPR relieves you or your employees of any rights or responsibilities under the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

f. This JPR takes precedence over all other JSC documentation in safety and health, except for more stringent requirements that individual JSC organizations develop. The following requirements apply:

(1) If your organization has more stringent requirements than are in this JPR, you shall follow them.

(2) In the case of differences between the requirements of this JPR and other NASA, federal, state, or local requirements, you shall follow the more stringent requirements.

(3) If you find any less stringent JSC requirements than are in this JPR, or any differences between the requirements of this JPR and other NASA, federal, state, or local requirements, bring them to the immediate attention of the JSC Director, the Safety and Mission Assurance Directorate, or the Human Health and Performance Directorate.

g. You don’t need to read this entire JPR. You need to be familiar with the elements of JSC’s safety and health program, and the requirements that apply to your job. Use the JPR to find specific requirements, as you need them. This JPR contains several features to help you find the requirements you need:

(1) Table of contents

(2) Subject index

(3) Chapter titles

(4) Chapter introductions that tell you who has to follow that chapter

(5) The table below tells you which parts apply to what jobs:

Chapter 1.1 Management Commitment

1.1.1 Applicability of this chapter

You are required to follow this chapter if you are a JSC manager at any level or a facility manager.

1.1.2 JSC’s Management Commitment

1.1.2.1 JSC integrates authority and responsibility for employee safety and health into its overall management structure and employees shall be involved. The following demonstrates JSC’s commitment to safety and health:

a. Policy. JPD 1700.3 contains JSC’s safety and health policy. Each employee and manager needs to understand and practice this policy.

b. Requirements. JPR 1700.1 provides the requirements, processes, responsibilities, and measurements for JSC’s safety and health program and requirements for working safely and healthfully as defined by the JSC's Safety and Health Program. Employees are responsible for understanding the requirements.

c. Goals and objectives. The JSC Executive Safety and Health Board (JESHB) sets attainable and measurable goals for JSC’s safety and health program and establishes results-oriented objectives to meet those goals. Each JSC organization is encouraged to set goals and objectives to improve safety and health in its organization. Employees need to understand the goals and objectives, the desired results, and the measures for meeting them.

d. Voluntary Protection Program (VPP) Commitment. JSC shall meet the requirements for a VPP Star site in Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Directive CSP 03-01- 003, “Voluntary Protection Programs (VPP): Policies and Procedures Manual,” and provide all required information to OSHA to clearly demonstrate commitment to VPP. This involves a daily commitment on your part to following JSC’s safety and health program, which is organized around VPP requirements. By becoming a VPP Star site, we have voluntarily agreed to strive for continuous improvement in our safety and health program. Our continued participation in VPP depends on commitment from top management, JSC managers, AFGE Local 2284, and all employees.

1.1.3 Management committees for safety or health

1.1.3.1 JSC has established two permanent, standing management committees involved in safety and health. JSC managers or employees may form other permanent or temporary committees as needed. Committees shall meet the requirements in paragraphs 1.1.5, 1.1.6, and

1.1.7. JSC has the following committees:

a. JSC management has established two permanent, standing management committees involved in safety and health:

(1) The JSC Executive Safety and Health Board monitors JSC’s Safety and Health Program as described in JPC 1700.4.

(2) The Contractor Safety and Health Forum reviews contractor safety and health issues, and provides inputs to JSC’s safety and health program. The Contractor Safety and Health Forum works with other JSC committees to investigate and resolve safety issues.

b. Ad hoc safety or health committees are one way management can involve employees in safety and health. The person who forms a committee (management or employee) will decide who the members will be. Ad hoc safety or health committees may:

(1) Address safety or health issues and ensure a response is provided in 30 working days.

(2) Draft positions and recommendations on Center-wide issues and policies for the JSC

Management Committee or other committees.

(3) Develop work practices that are safe and healthful.

(4) Develop and conduct safety and health training, awareness, or motivation activities.

NOTE: Under 29 CFR 1960.36, federal agencies may certify their safety and health committees with the Secretary of Labor. NASA Headquarters chooses not to have the Secretary of Labor certify safety and health committees within NASA.

1.1.4 Implementing JSC’s safety and health program in JSC organizations

1.1.4.1 Organizational directors and managers of directorate-level offices shall develop and document a process for implementing JSC’s safety and health program in their directorate or office. Tailor the process to the program elements and requirements relevant to the organization.

Implement the program through organizational safety and health committees, staff meetings, or any other effective means of meeting the requirements below. The process shall, as a minimum:

a. Provide insight into the safety and health of your directorate or office employees.

b. Provide for communication of safety and health information among working-level employees and all levels of management.

c. Make sure that all program elements and requirements that apply to the directorate or office are addressed, followed, and maintained.

d. Make sure significant issues and accomplishments of the directorate or office safety and health activities are forwarded to the JESHB.

e. Monitor directorate or office safety and health performance and effectiveness of all program elements that apply to the directorate or office.

f. Keep records to show the process is effective, such as committee or staff minutes and required program documentation.
