2. Activity Hazard Analysis

ORNP 385-1-2

16 July 1993

HELPFUL HINTS FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE

CONTRACTOR'S

ACCIDENT PREVENTION PROPOSAL

1. The following are minimum considerations for developing the Contractor's Accident Prevention Proposal. These helpful hints raise a number of basic questions that need to be answered for the Contractor's safety plan to be an effective management tool for use by on-site supervision. This plan shall be specific for this job.

a. Time of Submittal. The safety plan and the activity hazard analysis for the first phases of the job shall be acceptable prior to start of work. The plan and analysis shall be submitted for review within ten (10) calendar days after notice of award so that discussion can take place at the pre-construction conference. Job hazard analysis for later phases of work shall be acceptable prior to the start of that phase. It is recommended that the activity hazard analysis for the next phase of work be submitted twenty days before scheduled phase starts in order to give ample time for review. The safety plans shall contain a list of the phases to complete the works. Each phase shall have an anticipated start date. On short jobs, one submittal covering the total job will be sufficient.

b. Responsible Individual(s). Who will be responsible for enforcing the safety program and what are the basic duties? How will this person be held accountable? Include a statement that there will be compliance with pertinent provision of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Safety and Health Requirements Manual, EM 385-1-1.

c. Subcontractor Supervision. What procedures will be followed to assure that Subcontractor activities are fully integrated into the project safety plan and activity hazard analysis?

d. Indoctrination of New Employees Before Start of Work. Every employee is required to receive an initial safety briefing prior to starting work. The safety plan shall establish the procedures for ensuring the following Items are covered:

(1) General safety policy and pertinent provisions of EM-385-1-1.

(2) Requirements for employee and project safety.

(3) Employee’s responsibilities for property and safety of others.

(4) Employee’s responsibilities for reporting all accidents.

(5) Medical facilities and required treatment.

(6) Procedures for reporting or correcting safety problems.

(7) Safe clearance procedures.

(8) Fire fighting and other emergency procedures.

(9) Activity hazard analysis.

(10) Personal protective equipment.

e. On-the-Job Safety Meetings.

(1) When and where will the monthly safety meetings for all supervisors be held? Who will conduct the meetings and what will be covered?

(2) How will the weekly "tool box" meetings be conducted?

f. Accident Reporting. The contract requires prompt reporting of injuries, fire, and property damage. Initial reports must be reported immediately to the on-site government representative and written reports shall be submitted within one to four working days. How does the safety plan reflect responsibilities assigned for immediate oral reporting, accident investigation, determining proper corrective action, and preparation of reports?

g. Sanitary Facilities. What toilet facilities will be provided considering the number and distribution of employees? What other considerations are planned for drinking water and washing facilities?

h. First Aid and Medical. Describe first aid facilities and qualifications of attendant. List telephone numbers of physician, ambulance, and hospital.

i. Housekeeping. How will access ways to work areas be maintained during work hours? What procedures will be followed to assure daily cleanup?

j. Fire Protection. Considering the availability of existing fire protection, what general types and size of extinguishers and fire barrels will be required to protect buildings, shops, and storage areas as well as to deal with special hazards such as welding and flammable liquids? Name the local professional fire fighters. List their telephone number.

k. Machinery and Mechanized Equipment. How will inspection of cranes, trucks, and other mechanical equipment be accomplished? Frequency, by whom, what type of records will be kept?

l. Hazardous Material/Waste. If hazardous material/waste not generated by the contractor is encountered during the work. The Contract Officer's Representative (COR) will be notified immediately. If hazardous material/waste is generated as a result of the work, the job hazard analysis must identify the material/wastes and describe handling and disposal procedures. Copies of disposal manifests must be furnished to the COR and retained in contractor files for a minimum of three years.

2. Posters, contests, safety awards help develop positive attitudes toward safety rules. What methods, if any, will be used on this project? Most accidents are preventable by well thought out and executed safety plans.

GUIDELINES FOR THE PREPARATION OF

ACTIVITY HAZARDS ANALYSIS

1. Activity Hazards Analysis Development. Before starting any major phase of work, an activity hazards analysis shall be developed and reviewed with the Government representative. This analysis will evaluate anticipated hazards and outline the proposed methods and techniques, which will be utilized to accomplish the work in a safe manner.

2. Phase of Work. Listed are examples of major phases of work, but this list is not all-inclusive. Phases of work shall be tailored to the specific characteristics of the contract. For example:

Storage, Handling, Use and Disposal of Hazardous Material/Waste Preparation and Layout Clearing and Grubbing Earthwork Trench Excavation Blasting Demolition Concrete Placement Steel Erection Masonry Electrical Work Mechanical Work Metal Siding Roofing Carpentry Painting Drop-in-Ceiling

3. Sample Activity Hazards Analysis. The enclosed sample shows a possible format for a phase safety plan that might be submitted on a representative project. This sample incorporates a phase of work, the safety hazards that may be encountered, and precautionary actions that will be taken to overcome these hazards.

4. Indoctrination. Employees performing the work must be made aware of the activity hazard analysis. For this reason, an important part of any phase plan is the indoctrination of all employees who will be performing the work. The foreman shall have a copy of the AHA and a copy of the Safety and Health Requirements Manual, EM 385-1-1, on every job site. The Government will furnish one copy of EM 385-1-1.

5. A Working Document. The AHA is a working document and must be reviewed and updated as more knowledge of the specific activity is gained.
