Safety Appendix (formerly Appendix C)
Environmental, Safety and Occupational Health Requirements for:
PR/Contract/Project#: UHHZ 230077
Date: 31 May 2023
Type Work: Mechanical/Electrical II IDIQ, Robins AFB GA
PART I
Instructions: The contractor Safety and Health Plan (required IAW DAFI 91-202, The US Air
Force Mishap Prevention Program) shall address in detail the items listed in Part II through Part
IV, as applicable. Repeating the referenced standard without addressing the company’s specific processes or procedures will not suffice. If task specific procedures are incorporated into a company local document, those procedures must be attached to the submitted Safety and Health
Plan. Referencing the company's local procedure/document in the Safety and Health Plan is not adequate. If the company's local procedure/document is not attached, the submitted Safety Plan will be returned unacceptable.
PART II
1. Environmental, Safety, and Occupational Health (ESOH): The contractor is solely responsible for compliance with all federal, state and local laws, the Occupational, Safety and
Health Act (Public Law 91-596) and the resulting OSHA standards, 29 CFR 1910 and 1926, as applicable, and the protection of their employees. Additionally, the contractor is responsible for the safety and health of all subcontractor employees. The contractor must comply with all
Federal, State, Air Force, Department of Defense, and Robins Air Force Base permits, laws, and requirements outlined in the Civil Engineering Specifications, 01560-Environmental
Requirements.
2. Voluntary Protection Programs (VPP): The Air Force is part of OSHA’s VPP. All contractors are required to familiarize themselves with the requirements of VPP. Information on
VPP can be accessed at http://www.osha.gov. The intent of the Air Force Safety Program is to prevent injuries and to communicate our safety expectations with potential offerors as well as those contractors awarded a government contract. The Air Force’s interest is to protect personnel working in or around contractor operations, and to protect Air Force equipment/property.
3. Contractor Employees: Compliance with OSHA and other applicable laws and regulations for the protection of contractor employees is exclusively the obligation of the contractor. Note:
The Air Force Occupational Safety, Fire and Health Standards (DAFMAN 91-203) is frequently annotated because many of the Air Force standards exceed the OSHA standard criteria. If a conflict is noted, the most stringent requirement takes precedence. The government shall assume no liability or responsibility for the contractor's compliance or non-compliance with such http://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owasrch.search_form?p_doc_type=STANDARDS&p_toc_level=0
Prepared by: 78 ABW/SEG 2 requirements. The contractor shall furnish to each of his/her employees a place of employment, which is free from recognized hazards. The contractor shall brief his/her employees on the safety requirements of this contract and on hazards associated with prescribed tasks. The contractor is responsible for compliance with OSHA Public Law and the resultant standards identified within. In addition, the contractor is required to flow down the safety requirements/specification to all subcontractors. This applies to Federal Acquisition Regulation
(FAR) Part 12 commercial acquisitions as well. This contract shall in no way require persons to work in surroundings or under working conditions which are unsafe or dangerous to their health.
The contractor must coordinate and perform work so as not to impact the safety of government employees or cause damage to government property. This requires providing personnel with protective equipment and associated safety equipment as may be necessary. The contractor must also protect personnel from hazards generated by the work. If the contractor employs bilingual speaking employees, they must post bilingual signs and have written procedures for specific tasks in applicable languages.
4. Inspections: Air Force Environmental, Safety, Occupational Health and Fire protection officials or responsible Quality Assurance Evaluator (QAE) may periodically enter a contractor’s workplace to verify working conditions of Air Force personnel. If an Air Force employee observes improper procedures or unsafe conditions exits which place Air Force personnel or equipment/facilities in jeopardy, the contractor will remove personnel and/or equipment from the unsafe condition and immediately notify the Contracting Officer and the Installation Safety
Office. Department of Labor (DoL), Regulatory inspectors are authorized right of entry to inspect any place of employment operated by an Air Force contractor. They can be considered
“no notice” inspections. Note: Notify the Installation Safety Office at (478)-926-6271 if an
OSHA inspector visits your site unescorted by an Air Force Safety Technician. Notify the
Installation Environmental Office at (478)-327-8104 if an environmental inspector visits your site unescorted by 78 CEG/CEIE Environmental Personnel. Noncompliance with ESOH requirements can result in work stoppage, inexcusable delays, and/or costly fines issued by the
Regulator. The government shall assume no liability or responsibility for the contractor's compliance or non-compliance with such requirements. Fines and additional costs for violations levied against the contractor as a result of OSHA findings, and/or installation safety, fire, health or environmental are the sole responsibility of the contractor and shall not be passed through to the Government.
5. Mishap Notification: The contractor shall notify the Installation Safety Office telephonically at (478)-926-6271 during duty hours and (478)-327-2612 after hours, within four (4) hours after initial notification of all mishaps or incidents for damage to DoD property (material plus labor) entrusted by this contract and employee injuries as a result of the contract operation. A follow-up (written or e-mail) of this mishap/incident notification shall be sent within three calendar days to the Government Representative, the Procurement Contracting Officer (PCO) or the
Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO) (with a copy to program manager), who will forward it to the Installation Safety Office. The information that is not available at the time of the initial notification shall be provided within 20 calendar days after the mishap.
