PART I

INSTRUCTIONS

The contractor Safety and Health Plan shall address in detail the items listed in Part II through Part III 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 NOT ACCEPTED.

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 (OSHA) (Public Law 91-596) and the resulting standards, OSHA Standards 29 CFR 1910 and 1926, as applicable, and the protection of their employees.

http://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owasrch.search_form?p_doc_type=STANDARDS&p_toc_level=0

Additionally, the contractor is responsible for the safety and health of all subcontractor employees.

2. VOLUNTARY PROTECTION PROGRAMS (VPP): The Air Force is part of the OSHA 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 Consolidated Occupational Safety Instruction is annotated because many of the Air Force Safety Instruction exceeds 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 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) 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, OSHA inspectors are authorized right of entry to inspect any place of employment operated by an Air Force contractor. They are for the most part, “NO NOTICE” inspections. NOTE: Notify the Safety Office at (478)-926-1708 if an OSHA inspector visits your site unescorted by an Air Force Safety Technician. Noncompliance with safety requirements can result in work stoppage, inexcusable delays, and/or costly fines issued by the DOL. 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 http://www.osha.gov/ 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 Safety Office telephonically at (478)-926-1708 during duty hours and (478)-926-3567 after hours, within four (4) hour 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 Safety Office.
