PROJECT SPECIFIC SAFETY PLAN REQUIREMENTS

PART 1 – GENERAL

1.01 INTRODUCTION

A Project Specific Safety Plan (PSSP) is a communication tool between contractors and the Owner. Used correctly, the PSSP ensures that relevant project/site-specific safety information is identified, monitored and communicated to all involved with the project.

1.02 PURPOSE

The PSSP will allow all those involved with the project to easily identify the existing and potential hazards associated with the scope of work and what methods the contractor shall utilize to mitigate the hazards to an acceptable level.

This should not be an overly complex document. It should be easily referenced by all those working on the project. The document should be able to be used as part of the daily pre task planning and for onsite safety meetings (toolbox talks).

The PSSP should not be a version of the company safety plan. It is Project / Site / Task specific. The PSSP shall include the applicable information commensurate with the size, complexity and risk level of the project.

The PSSP shall make it clear that everyone on the project has the right to report hazards and unsafe practices without fear of reprisal.

Contractor shall submit a PSSP to the Owner for review prior to project commencement with appropriate time for review. The Owner reserves the right to ask the Contractor to resubmit the PSSP if safety critical items related to the project are missing or incomplete.

The submittal of the PSSP does not relieve the Contractor from any other submittals required by the Contract Documents, including but not limited to:

· Construction & Demolition Safety Plan

· Crane Critical Lift Plan

· Hazardous Materials Disposal Plan

· Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) Plan / Temporary Traffic Control (TTC) Plan

· Hurricane / Weather Contingency Plan

1.03 FORMAT

The Owner will not dictate the exact format of the PSSP. However, there are four critical components of the PSSP:

· Responsibilities / Contacts

· Scope of work

· Job Safety Analysis (JSA)

· Pre-Task / Daily Safety Planning

A. RESPONSIBILITIES / CONTACTS

This section shall simply and clearly define the duties and responsibilities of the Contractor’s personnel regarding the work to be completed and safety and health program implementation. It should also include means to contact those listed (i.e. phone, email, etc.)

· Contractor’s President/Owner (of company)

· Contractor’s Project Manager

· Contractor’s Safety Manager (if applicable)

· Contractor’s Field Supervision/ Superintendent

· All of Contractor’s Subcontractors and Sub-Subcontractors (if any)

B. SCOPE OF WORK

The Scope of Work shall include translating the contract scope of work into a specific detailed work plan. It shall identify location(s), means and methods of accomplishing the plan, anticipated sequence of events, equipment to be used, etc. Please note that this includes all work to be performed by the Contractor and Subcontractors of every tier.

The scope shall also identify the following:

· Maximum height and depth of work activities

· Industrial hygiene issues

· Exposure to high hazard areas including but not limited to:

· Water Ways

· Diving

· Crane Lifts

· Energized Electrical Systems

· Confined Spaces

· Maintenance Of Traffic (“MOT”) / Temporary Traffic Control (“TTC”)

· Guest Areas

C. JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS (JSA)

The JSA is a task/operation-driven document to ensure that the job task or operation receives proper safety planning prior to beginning work. In actuality, the JSA is a written work plan that incorporates safety procedures into the work practices The JSA should be prepared far enough in advance of the task or activity to ensure that changes or revisions will not affect the scheduled execution of the task or activity. A JSA is to be developed by the Contractor or Subcontractors for any high-hazard or high-risk activity as identified by the Owner in its sole and absolute discretion, the Contractor or all Subcontractors of every tier.

The specific format of the JSA is to be determined by the Contractor, however, it must include the following information:

· A breakdown of the job into successive steps involved with the work activity.

· Identification of the hazards and the potential incidents associated with each work activity.

· Identification of methods to reduce or eliminate the hazards and potential incidents.

D. PRE-TASK PLANNING

Pre-task Planning is an activity that occurs at the start of each day, prior to beginning any work shift during which work is to be performed by the Contractor or any Sub-contractor of any tier, as well as any time the daily cope of the work changes. It helps everyone involved in performing, supervising and overseeing the work to align the objectives to be accomplished before the day of work begins. A Pre-task Planning form is required to be completed and a meeting is required to be held with the crew by the supervisor prior to the start of each work shift. At a minimum, the supervisor will include the following in the Pre-task Planning:

· Identify the specific actions and work methods required to perform the work.

· Identify the specific hazards associated with the performance of the work and the measures necessary to eliminate or minimize the workers’ exposure to the hazard.

· Provide the necessary training needed to safely perform the work.

· Identify and provide the necessary tools, equipment, and PPE required to protect the workers from the hazards.

· Review any items that may be applicable to their work activity previously identified on the JSA.

The Pre-Task Plan will be documented and kept in the work location for the duration of the shift or activity. As acknowledgment of its contents, the Pre-Task Plan must be signed by all members of the work crew and its supervisor, and others identified by, and in the sole and absolute discretion of, the Owner.

Pre-Task Planning is not something that is to be submitted with the PSSP however it must be maintained on the jobsite throughout the project duration for review by the Owner and, at the request of the Owner, must be provided to the Owner as part of the Contract Close- out documentation.

1.01 General

A. The Scope of Work for the 2027 Traffic Signals Replacement project is described by the Project Manual entitled 2027 Traffic Signal Replacements. Specific elements of the Scope of Work are generally summarized below but this Summary of the Work is not intended to be complete descriptions of the Work. Any quantities or measurements, if included in the summaries, are approximate and are not to be used in estimating the Work.

B. It is the intent of the Owner that the Contractor will perform all of the Work of any kind and nature shown on the drawings and/or described in the specifications, which is within the Contractor's Scope of Work unless specifically excluded or indicated as Owner-furnished and/or installed.
