CONTRACTOR SAFETY PROGRAM

Unless waived by Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), prime and supplementary Safety Program submittals must, as a minimum, address all appropriate contractual requirements shown under the program outline. Program items will be so detailed that reviewers can ascertain adequacy. The original program submittal can cover all work phases or only address the initial work phases with timely supplementary submittals as a major work phases occur. Contractors desiring to follow this latter course of action will, in the initial submission, clearly define the original work covered and the work phases to be covered by supplements.

In no case will any phases of work commence until a program for that portion of the work has been accepted by the COR. Original and supplemental submissions covering hazardous operations and/or activities will include a standing operating procedure (SOP) and hazard analysis. The SOP will break down the operation or activity into specific basic steps. The hazard analysis will define the hazards associated with each basic step and proposed method(s) for eliminating or neutralizing the hazard. Such methods will outline, as a minimum, employee training requirements, personal protective equipment requirements, procedural changes, methods for evaluating program effectiveness, etc.

All activities involving use of hazardous and/or toxic materials, work in confined spaces, work at heights over 6 feet, or underwater work require an SOP and hazard analysis. Material Safety Data Sheets will be attached to all SOPs governing work that involves use of hazardous or toxic materials.
