TESTING PROCEDURES 1) URINE SUBSTANCE ABUSE SCREENS AND SALIVA OR ALCOHOL SCREEN
COLLECTIONS OR THEIR EQUIVALENT AND PRELIMINARY TESTING MAY BE ON SITE. A SAMSHA APPROVED LABORATORY WILL CONFIRM ON-SITE SCREENS THAT TEST NON-NEGATIVE. IT COULD TAKE UP TO 48 HOURS, BUT USUALLY 24 HOURS OR LESS, FOR THE SPECIMEN TO FINISH THE CONFIRMATION PROCESS. A FINAL DETERMINATION WILL BE MADE ONLY AFTER THE CONFIRMATION PROCESS IS COMPLETE. SINCE THE SUBSTANCE ABUSE SCREENING PROGRAM IS FIRST AND FOREMOST A SAFETY PROGRAM, THE PENDING WORKER WILL NOT BE ALLOWED ON-SITE UNTIL THIS PROCESS IS COMPLETE.
2) NO WORKER SEARCH, DRUG TEST, OR ALCOHOL TEST WILL BE CONDUCTED OF A WORKER WITHOUT THE WORKERS CONSENT. THE WORKER SHALL BE REQUIRED TO SIGN A CONSENT FORM. REFUSAL TO GIVE CONSENT SHALL BE CAUSE FOR TERMINATION. 3) A "HAND HELD" BREATHALYZER UNIT OR EQUIVALENT DEVICE, SIMILAR TO THOSE USED BY LAW ENFORCEMENT FOR FIELD SOBRIETY TESTS, WILL BE USED FOR THE ALCOHOL SCREEN.

TESTING OF THE ORIGINAL SPLIT SPECIMEN SHALL BE COMPLETED BY A THIRD LABORATORY TO CONFIRM OR DENY THE PREVIOUS TEST RESULTS. A TOXICOLOGIST AND MRO WILL REVIEW ALL DATA FOR A FINAL DETERMINATION. IF IT IS DETERMINED THAT THE INITIAL CONFIRMATION SCREEN WAS INCORRECT, THE WORKER SHALL BE ALLOWED TO RESUME WORK.
5) A "POSITIVE" SUBSTANCE ABUSE SCREEN SHALL MEAN THAT THE CONFIRMED RESULTS ARE ABOVE STANDARD CUT-OFF LEVELS AND THAT THERE IS NOT A MEDICALLY VALID REASON FOR THE RESULT. A "POSITIVE" ALCOHOL TEST RESULT
SHALL MEAN BLOOD ALCOHOL LEVELS ARE OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZED AS DEMONSTRATING ALCOHOL INTOXICATION AT OR IN EXCESS OF 0.02% (DOT STANDARD).

Administrative Issues (Section A)

Safety Policy Statement As the leader in the construction industry, Turner Universal is committed to the incorporation of safety into the work being performed through planning. It is our intention to provide and maintain the safest possible work conditions for all workers. This will be achieved through our productive partnership with our owners and subcontractor to continuously plan safety into the work being performed. By planning for safe and efficient production, incidents that increase cost to the project and suffering to the employee, will be kept to a minimum. Project Managers, Superintendents, Assistant/Area Superintendents, Safety Representatives, and Foreman are the key individuals for implementing and maintaining an effective safety program. It is the responsibility of each of these individuals to ensure the men and women working under their control are provided the tools and knowledge to work safely, and are performing their task in a safe manner. It is also the responsibility of each worker to follow every precaution in the pre-task plan to protect themselves and their fellow workers. Each Subcontractor and lower tier subcontractor is solely responsible for the safety of their employees and/or visitors as required by the rules and regulations of this program, Exhibit A Subcontractor Safety Performance Requirements and the OSHA 1926 Safety Standards for the Construction Industry and all other local, state, and federally recognized current standards and codes. All visits to the site are to be kept to an absolute minimum and must be approved by the project Superintendent. All Contractors and Subcontractors on the project are required to know and follow the contents of this safety program. All Contractors and Subcontractors are solely responsible to train and educate their employees, and/or visitors as to the contents of this program. No one is permitted to work onsite before attending the safety orientation and producing a negative drug test. The written safety program strives to encompass many of the major standards promulgated by the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the American National Standards Institute, but in no way is it all encompassing. In the event a situation arises whereby a site practice is not covered in this program or
subcontractors program, the most applicable and stringent safety standard shall apply using the Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards as a minimum. We as a team of Turner Universal have accepted and approved this policy. It is up to all of us to make sure it is effective. We sincerely believe in, and strive for production, which is both safe and efficient.

Project Safety Goals

Policy Statement In order to prevent incidents and injuries that may result from the activities of independent subcontractors, Turner Universal has set forth safety goals for which the project will maintain. The result will be minimal disruption to the project construction activities and will assist in monitoring the success of the program by maintaining statistics involving subcontractor accident/incidents. The goals apply to the project as a whole but each individual Contractor and Subcontractor shall establish their own company safety goals.
Definitions Lost Time Incident - Incident that involves an employee receiving a work related injury that does not allow the employee to return to work (based on the restriction of work by the attending physician) on their next regularly scheduled work shift. OSHA Recordable Incident - Incident that involves an employee receiving a work related injury that results in loss of consciousness, restriction of work or motion, transfer to another job, or requiring medical treatment considered beyond first aid.

Drug Testing
Turner Corporation Subcontractor Substance Abuse Program Revised June, 2006 The Turner Corporation Policy on Substance Abuse Purpose To help ensure a safe, healthy, and productive work, Turner Construction Company has adopted a policy of maintaining a workplace free of drugs and alcohol. This policy restricts certain items and substances from being brought onto, or being present on Turner premises or projects, or workers from reporting to work or working under the influence of illegal drugs, alcohol, and other controlled substances which may affect their ability to perform work safely. All workers or agents of subcontractors hired to perform work under any Turner contract or in any facility will be required to participate in a drug test administered by a Turner designated representative prior to commencing that work, unless an approved alternative substance abuse testing program is accepted by Turner Management. Any current worker who feels that he or she has a drug or alcohol related problem is encouraged to seek professional help. A workers employer will refer any worker voluntarily seeking such help to professional assistance and any such action by a worker shall be kept strictly confidential. This policy is non-discriminatory and applies equally to all workers, management personnel, Turner hourly craft, and temporary personnel working with Turner Construction. Policy Statement This policy applies to subcontractors, consultants, construction managers, and their respective workers, or others working at a Turner project where Turner holds the subcontracts and/or Turner is contractually obligated to implement said program, or on Turner property including but not limited to subcontractor personnel, management personnel, temporary personnel, or consultants. This program does not apply to projects whereby Turner does not hold subcontracts and/or there is no contractual obligation to do so. This policy includes pre-employment, post- incident, reasonable suspicion, reemployment, annual, random testing, searches and investigations to the extent permissible by law.
28
Rules Possessing, soliciting, manufacturing, distributing, dispensing, and/or the use of illegal drugs, drug paraphernalia, unauthorized controlled substances, illegal use of legal drugs, and other intoxicants on or in any project or at any facility is prohibited and may result in disciplinary action up to and including removal/barring of the worker from Turner Construction projects or sites. Reporting to and being at work under the influence of illegal drugs or unauthorized controlled substances is prohibited. Reporting to and being under the influence of alcohol or other legal intoxicant that can adversely affect the workers performance or the safety of the worker or those surrounding the worker is also prohibited. Violation of this rule may result in disciplinary action up to and including removal/barring of the worker from Turner Construction projects or sites. Legally prescribed drugs may be permitted on or in any project or at any facility provided that the drugs are prescribed to the worker by an authorized medical practitioner for current use by the worker. Reporting to and being at work under the influence of prescribed or over-the-counter drug, where such use prevents a worker from performing the duties of the job, or poses a safety risk to the worker and/or other workers or property is prohibited. Workers taking a prescription or over-the-counter drug are personally responsible for confirming with their physician that they may safely perform any job duties while taking such items. Workers taking a legal substance that could impair their safe work must advise their immediate supervisor, who may assign the worker to non-hazardous duties or send them home. A workers failure to notify their supervisor at the start of their work shift may result in disciplinary actions up to and including removal/barring of the worker from Turner Construction projects or sites. Testing Requirements A worker, to the extent consistent with applicable federal, state and local laws, will be required to undergo a screening test for the use of illegal and non-prescription drugs, alcohol or other substances under any of the following or other circumstances which may be determined by Turner management under this policy: o o o o o o
Pre-Employment Screening Post Incident Screening Reasonable Suspicion Re-employment or re-admission to a Project or Facility As specified by Turner /Owner contracts Random Screening
o Annual Screening
29
A worker who has submitted to and passed a Turner administrated drug test within the past year may present their certified results in lieu of taking a pre-employment drug test. In the event that a worker has submitted to and passed a non-Turner administered drug test within the last year, they may submit their certified results only if their companys drug policy has been pre-approved by Turner. Testing Procedures 1. At a minimum, urine specimens will be analyzed for the presence of the following: o o o o o Cannabinoids (Marijuana) Cocaine Opiates Amphetamines Phencyclidine
2. In general, donors will be permitted to give a urine specimen in privacy and without being observed by collection site personnel. However, a donor forfeits this right whenever there is a reason to believe that he/she may alter or substitute a specimen.
3. Urine substance abuse screens and saliva or alcohol screen collections or their equivalent and preliminary testing may be performed on site. A SAMHSA approved laboratory will confirm on-site screens that test non-negative. Before a donors test result will be confirmed positive for drugs, the donor will be given the opportunity to speak with Turners MRO and bear the burden of proof that there was a legitimate medical explanation for the positive test result. If the MRO determines that a legitimate medical reason does exist, the test result will be reported as negative. If the MRO determines that a legitimate medical reason does not exist, the test result will be reported as a confirmed positive. Since the substance abuse screening program is first and foremost a safety program, the pending worker will not be allowed on-site until this process is complete.
4. No Worker search, drug test, or alcohol test will be conducted without the workers consent. The worker shall be required to sign a consent form. Refusal to give consent shall be cause for removal/barring from the project or site.
5. On site drug tests will be completed using EZ Cup. This system provides results in 5 minutes.
30
6. A DOT approved saliva testing device or "hand held" Breathalyzer unit or equivalent device, similar to those used by law enforcement for field sobriety tests, will be used for the alcohol screen.
7. Diluted samples occur when an applicant drinks large amounts of fluids before the drug test, or adds water to their specimen so that it is harder to detect drug abuse. Applicants may innocently drink too many fluids before the drug test in order to be able to give a sample. This can be avoided by telling the donor not to drink more than 24 ounces within three (3) hours of the drug test. It is the responsibility of the donor to provide Turner with an undiluted sample that can be tested. Turners policy on diluted specimens is to retest the donor one additional time. Ideally, they should be retested within 24 hours of receiving the results from the MRO, but no later than 48 hours. If the donor has provided a second dilute sample, the MRO will conduct a medical interview with the donor. During the interview process, if it is determined that there is no legitimate medical reason; the donors test will be treated as positive.
8. A "positive" substance abuse screen shall mean that the verified results are above standard cut-off levels and that there is not a medically valid reason for the result. A "positive" alcohol test result shall mean alcohol levels are officially recognized as demonstrating alcohol intoxication at or in excess of 0.02 (DOT Standard).
9. Any worker who tests positive for drugs or alcohol, and who believe the test results are incorrect, may request a retest of the original specimen at his/her own cost within (24) hours. An equally qualified laboratory shall perform the retest. If the retest is negative, a third test of the original split specimen shall be completed by a third laboratory to confirm or deny the previous test results. A toxicologist and MRO will review all data for a final determination. If it is determined that the initial confirmation screen was incorrect, the worker shall be allowed to resume work.
10. If the confirmation screen for alcohol and/or drugs is negative, their immediate employer shall pay the worker for any lost time that may have occurred.
11. Workers who are terminated from working with or at a Turner project or at any facility subsequent to a positive test may be returned to work only if the certain criteria are met. In all cases, there is no guarantee of reemployment on a Turner project or site.
31
Searches Turner reserves the right to search any person entering any project or any facility and to search any property equipment and storage areas for illegal drugs, drug paraphernalia, unauthorized controlled substances, alcohol or other intoxicants. Turner may have the subcontractor complete the search(s) of the worker or their property. This shall include, but is not limited to, clothing, personal effects, vehicles, buildings, plant facilities, offices, parking lots, desks, cabinets, lockers, closets, lunch and toolboxes, and equipment.
Refusal Any worker who refuses to submit to a drug or alcohol screening test, or if their sample was adulterated or substituted, may be subject to disciplinary action up to and including removal and barring from Turner projects or sites. Any worker refusing to submit to a search may be denied access to or be asked to immediately leave any work site or Company property, and his or her employer shall be notified of such action. Cost of Testing If a worker is requested to submit to a substance abuse test, the cost of that test and the confirmatory test of the same specimen will be paid by the workers employer through contract agreements. This does not apply to the retest of the original specimen if the donor feels that his or her specimen was tested in error. Such costs for retesting of the donors original split sample will be borne by the donor. Notification of Authorities Turner Construction may report information concerning possession, or distribution of any illegal drugs or unauthorized controlled substances to law enforcement officials, and will turn over to the custody of law enforcement officials any such substances found during a search. Turner will cooperate fully in the prosecution and/or conviction of any violators of the law. Workers Convicted of Drug Offenses In accordance with federal law H.R. 5210, The Drug Free Workplace Act Of 1988 each worker must, as a condition of continued employment on a federal contract or grant notify his or her employer of any conviction of a criminal drug offense within five (5) days after said conviction. If an employer is notified, then that employer shall notify the Turner Operations Manager immediately. Turner will notify the Federal Contracting Agency of criminal drug convictions within 30 days after Turner has received notice. Any worker so convicted must satisfactorily complete an approved drug rehabilitation program and agree to periodic testing any time thereafter before re-employment or barring is lifted and will be considered. Failure to report such a conviction and/or participate in a drug rehabilitation program may result in disciplinary action up to and including removal and barring from Turner projects or sites.
32
Cooperation with Turner All workers, as a condition of continued employment with Turner or on a Turner project, have an obligation to cooperate with any Turner investigation concerning compliance or enforcement of this policy. Failure to cooperate with any such investigation may result in disciplinary action up to and including removal and barring from Turner projects or sites. Penalties A worker will be removed and barred from Turner Construction work sites for possession, use, or distribution of illegal drugs, unauthorized controlled substances, or drug paraphernalia on Turner property or work sites, as set forth in the Substance Abuse Policy. 1. If a worker voluntarily asks for help, that worker will be asked to submit to a drug or alcohol screen to assure safety on the project. If this test is positive his or her subcontractor, in accordance with this policy, shall remove the worker from the project. 2. If discovered by actions and/or testing, a worker for subcontractors, suppliers, etc. will be barred from entering Turner Construction property with notice being sent to their employer. A worker who enters a formal inpatient rehabilitation facility, completes the program under the direction of the MRO, becomes drug and/or alcohol free and agrees to periodic random testing to confirm this, may be eligible for reemployment on a Turner project or site. No guarantees are given or implied. Confidentiality All substance abuse testing will be performed with concern for each workers personal privacy, dignity, and confidentiality. Each worker will be required to sign a consent and chain of custody form, assuring proper documentation and accuracy. Records may be kept at the project level for that particular project. Workers shall have the right to a copy of their screen results within the reasonable amount of time it takes to retrieve them. All actions taken under this policy and program will be confidential and disclosed to only those with a need to know.

Demolition
Policy Statement It is the intent of Turner Universal to monitor and review the safety procedures during demolition processes to ensure the safety of all Subcontractors. The Subcontractor Superintendent will be responsible for providing direction and guidance to all of its employees during the demolition operation. It is the sole responsibility of the Subcontractor who conducts these processes to utilize and enforce the following procedures and meet all current federal, state, and/or local relevant to the operation(s). The Subcontractor shall be responsible for submitting a Activity Hazard Analysis and work procedures plan at a minimum of three days prior to the start of demolition for each phase.
Procedures 1. Demolition a. Subcontractors will be required to wear durable gloves, eye protection, and long sleeved shirts in addition to their standard Personal Protective Equipment when performing selective demolition operations. The contractors are solely responsible for this and any other required personal protective equipment. b. Prior to beginning demolition operations, an engineering survey will be made by a qualified person designated by the Subcontractor. This survey shall determine the condition of the framing, floors, and walls, and will also determine the possibility of an unplanned collapse of any part of this structure. Adjacent structures will be checked for structural integrity. Written evidence of the results of this survey is to be given to Turner Universal. In addition, the subcontractor shall supply a job hazard analysis of the demolition operation. c. Prior to beginning demolition operations, Turner Universal will obtain from the owner a site survey identifying the locations of asbestos- and leadcontaining materials. If the owner is unable to provide this information, the Subcontractor shall employ a testing agency that can identify and/or verify areas suspected of containing these materials prior to their disturbance during the demolition operation at their own cost.
43
d. All electric, gas, water, steam, sewer, and other service lines shall be shut off, capped, or otherwise controlled outside the building line before demolition work is started. Any utility company whose services are effected will be notified in advance by the subcontractor. e. If electric, gas, water, steam, sewer, or other utilities are necessary during demolition, their lines shall be temporarily relocated and protected. f. Before demolition begins, the building will be checked to determine whether any hazardous chemicals, gases, explosives, flammable materials, or similarly dangerous substances have been used in pipes, tanks, or other equipment on the property. If found they shall be eliminated before demolition is started. Any hazardous glass fragments shall be removed.
g. All floor and wall openings, which pose a fall exposure, shall be protected by guardrails and covers. h. If debris is dropped through holes in the floor without the use of chutes, the area onto which the material is dropped will be completely enclosed with barricades not less than 42 inches high and not less than 6 feet back from the project openings. Signs shall be posted at each level, warning of the hazard of falling materials. Removal of the debris from the lower area shall not be permitted until debris handling from above has ended. i. Floor openings not used, as material drops will be covered with material that can withstand the weight of any potential load. The floor opening cover will be secured to prevent it from being inadvertently moved. Demolition of exterior wall construction and floor construction will begin at the top of the structure and proceed downward, except for the cutting of holes in floors or walls for chutes and material drops, preparation of storage space, and similar preparatory work. Each story of exterior wall and floor construction will be removed and dropped into the storage space prior to removing exterior walls and floor construction in the story below.
j.
k. Entrances to multi-story structures being demolished shall be completely protected by sidewalk sheds, canopies, or both. Protection shall be provided from the face of the building for a minimum of 8 feet.

No material may be dropped to a point outside the building unless that area is delineated with a protective barricade and the distance to any point does not exceed 20 feet. b. All chutes must be entirely enclosed except for openings at or slightly above the floor level for the insertion of materials. c. A substantial gate must be installed in each chute at or near the discharge end. A competent person must be assigned to control the operation of the gate and the backing and loading of trucks. d. Chutes must be designed and constructed of such strength as to eliminate failure due to the impact of material and debris loaded into them. e. Materials, chutes, or sections at an angle of more than 45 degrees from the horizontal will be entirely enclosed, except for openings equipped with closures at or about floor level where materials are inserted. The openings will not exceed 48 inches in height as measured along the wall of the chute. f. At all stories below the top floor, openings not being used will be kept closed or covered.
g. Each chute shall have a substantial gate at or near the discharge end. h. A Subcontractor designated Competent Person shall control the operation of the gate and the backing and loading of trucks.
45
i.
When operations are not in progress, the area surrounding the discharge end of a chute shall be securely closed off. A guardrail will protect any chute opening into which debris is dumped. Any space between the chute and the openings in the floor through which the chute passes will be covered.
j.
k. Where material is dumped from mechanical equipment or wheelbarrows, a securely attached toeboard or bumper not less than 4 inches thick and 6 inches in height will be provided at each chute opening. 3. Removal of Materials through Floor Openings a. There is to be no removal of materials through floor openings unless approved by the Turner Universal Superintendent. 4. Manual Removal of Floors a. Openings cut in floors will extend the full span of the arch between supports. Before demolishing a floor arch, debris and other material will be removed from the arch and other adjacent floor area. b. Planks not less than 2 inches by 10 inches in cross section, full size undressed, will be used to stand on while breaking down floor arches between beams. c. The planks will be placed so that a safe support is provided for the workers if the arch between the beams collapses. d. The open space between planks shall not exceed 16 inches. e. Safe walkways meeting Federal OSHA standards, not less than 18 inches wide, formed of planks, not less than 2 inches thick, if wood, and of equivalent strength, if metal, will be provided so that workers can reach any point without walking on exposed beams. f. Stringers of ample strength will be installed to support the flooring planks and the ends of such stringers will be supported by floor beams or girders, and not by floor arches alone.
g. Planks will be laid together over solid bearings with the ends overlapping at least 1 foot.
46
h. Demolition of floor arches will not be started until the arches and surrounding floor area for a distance of 20 feet have been cleared of debris and any other unnecessary materials. 5. Removal of Material with Equipment a. Mechanical equipment will not be used on floors or working surfaces unless the floor or surface is strong enough to support the imposed load. 6. Storage of Materials a. No demolition materials are to be stored inside the building without the permission of Turner Universal Superintendent and meeting Federal OSHA standards. 7. Removal of Steel Construction a. Steel construction shall be dismantled column length by column length and tier by tier. b.

Demolition using Mechanical Equipment a. When demolition balls and clam buckets are used for demolition, no craft personnel will be allowed to enter an area where they can be adversely affected by this operation. Only those subcontractors necessary for the performance of the operations will be permitted in this area at any other time. b. The weight of the demolition ball shall not exceed 50 percent of the crane's rated load. This is based on the length of the boom and the maximum angle of operation at which the ball will be used; or it will not exceed 25 percent of the nominal breaking strength of the line by which it is suspended, whichever is less. c. The ball will be attached to the load line with a swivel-type connection to prevent twisting of the loadline, and attached so that the weight cannot become incidentally disconnected. d. During demolition, continuing inspections by a Subcontractor assigned Competent Person shall be made as the work progresses so that hazards
47
that could result from weakened or deteriorated floors, or walls, or loosened material are detected. No subcontractor employee will be allowed to work where such hazards exist until these hazards are corrected by shoring, bracing, or other effective means. 9. Training a. Subcontractors are responsible for training their employees in all applicable demolition operations and all applicable Federal, State, and Local laws, codes, and standards.

Policy Statement The intent and purpose of this procedure is to limit and / or eliminate the danger of the unexpected release of stored or residual energy that could cause injury or death to the employee or to the general public. Each contractor working on a Turner project will comply with 29 CFR 1926, Construction Industry Regulations, Subpart K, Section 1926.417, Locking and Tagging of Circuits, in addition to the following.
Procedures 1. Lock Out/Tag Out (LOTO) will not be considered for use until all other avenues of attaining a zero-energy state have been exhausted. 2. All subcontractors working with electrical systems are required to have a written Lock Out / Tag Out Procedure that includes verification that Lockout was successful prior to proceeding with any work. A Competent Person (CP) shall be responsible to control all aspects of the Lock Out / Tag Out (LOTO) procedure. They will ensure coordination with the appropriate tradesmen. 3. If a system can be locked out through design or by other means, this will be the preferred method. 4. The lockout device shall be substantial enough to prevent removal. 5. The lock shall be a separately keyed lock for use only with the lockout system. 6. The lockout device must be tagged with the name of the employee and their company. There shall be one lock for each employee (including Turner) exposed to the system. 7. If working in a multi-shift environment, each employee shall remove their respective locks at the end of their shift, with Turner being the last lock removed. 8. Employees shall not leave their lock on past the end of their shift. The use of 100% LOTO must be maintained until the completion of the task. Verification by all competent persons in charge of the LOTO shall be completed prior to reenergizing the system. 9. If the energy isolation device can not be locked out and a tag must be used, authorization from the Business Unit Safety Director (BUSD) is required prior to start of work. 10. Tag out devices, including their means of attachment, shall be substantial enough o prevent accidental removal. 11. The tag shall warn against energizing the tagged out system such as: Do Not Start, Do Not Open, Do Not Close, Do Not Energize, Do Not Operate, etc. 12. The name of each employee shall be displayed on the tag.
53
13. The competent person shall be responsible for untagging and activating the system after all exposed employees have removed their tags. Training and Documentation 1. Each employee affected by the LOTO procedure shall be trained in the procedure. Records of training will be kept on site and be made available to Turner Universal upon request. 2. Each employer utilizing LOTO must establish a program and utilize procedures for affixing appropriate lockout or tagout devices to energy isolating devices, and to otherwise disable machines, piping or equipment to prevent unexpected release of stored or residual energy in order to prevent injury to employees. 3. Each employee shall be trained in the identification of the lockout / tagout device. 4. A log shall be maintained on site that identifies the following: o o o o o o Date of usage Number of locks and tags used Contractors involved Time of LOTO initiation Time of LOTO removal Designated competent persons
5. In the event a lock is left on the lockout device and all of the subcontractors have verified with Turner that the lock should be removed and the system is safe to energize, the Turner Project Safety Manager must be notified. After consultation between the Project Safety Manager and the Turner competent person, the subcontractor owning the lock may remove it. 6. This process must be DOCUMENTED to show you have followed all the steps to keep the workforce safe and have used all reasonable means to contact the employee who was responsible for the lock. 7. In the event an employee is discovered tampering with or violating the LOTO procedure, the employee will be removed from the project.

Excavation and Trenching

Policy Statement This section provides requirements to ensure the safety of all workers who are required to work in and around excavations and to provide guidelines for locating existing underground utilities.
The Subcontractors appointed Competent Person (Competent Person means one who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards in the surroundings, or working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous to Subcontractors, and who has the authorization to take prompt corrective measures) in charge of the excavation work ensures that:
o o o All preparatory work is conducted as described in this program before any excavation work begins. Excavation and trenching work is performed within the guidelines of this program. Soil Classification is performed before Subcontractors are allowed in the excavation.
Soil Classifications Soil classification means a method of categorizing soils and/or rock into categories. o Type A Soil Type A soil means cohesive soils with an unconfined compressive strength of 1.5 tons per square foot or greater. Examples of cohesive soils are clay, silty clay, sandy clay, clay loam, and, in some cases, silty clay loam and sandy clay loam. Cemented soils such as caliche and hardpan are also considered Type A. However, soil cannot be classified as Type A if the soil is fissured, or subject to vibration from heavy traffic, pile driving or similar effects or the soil has been previously disturbed. o Type B Soil Type B soil means cohesive soils with an unconfined compressive strength
55
greater than 0.5 but less than 1.5 tons per square foot. Examples of Type B soils are: granular cohesion less soils including angular gravel (similar to crushed rock), silt, silt loam, sandy loam and, in some cases, silty clay loam and sandy clay loam. Included also are previously disturbed soils except those which would otherwise be classed as Type C soil and soil that meets the unconfined compressive strength or cementation requirements for Type A, but is fissured or subject to vibration or dry rock that is not stable. o Type C Soil Type C soil means soil with an unconfined compressive strength of 0.5 tons per square foot or less. Examples of Type C soil are; granular soils including gravel, sand, and loamy sand, or submerged soil or rock and previously disturbed soils. Unclassified soil shall be sloped 1:1 (horizontal to vertical) or shored when excavation exceeds 4 feet in depth. Procedures 1. All surface encumbrances that are located so as to create a hazard to Subcontractors shall be removed or supported, as necessary, to safeguard workers in the excavation. 2. Work is not to proceed without the proper utility company marking out the area(s) of their underground material(s). Any damage to any utility is to be reported immediately to Turner Universal. a. When excavation operations approach the estimated location of underground installations, the exact location of the installations shall be determined by hand digging only. b. While the excavation is open, underground installations shall be protected, supported or removed as necessary to safeguard employees. c. Multiple notification to State One Call Number will be necessary as locale lines are eliminated through excavation, weather and extended time. 3. A competent person must be identified and their resume submitted to Turner prior to the start of work. 4. The Subcontractors Competent Person responsible for the excavation shall be on site during all operations relating to the open excavation. 5. The Competent Person shall make soil classification. 6. Excavations greater than 4 feet in depth must be protected by one of the following protective systems:
56
a. Sloping/benching to the allowable configurations and slopes. b. Using tabulated data. c. Utilizing a trench box or shield. d. Using a slope or shield system designed by a professional engineer. Refer to 29 CFR Subpart P, Appendix B. 7. For excavation a Registered Professional Engineer hired by the Subcontractor shall design, all shoring, sloping or benching over 20 feet deep. All designs shall be submitted to Turner Universal and filed at the Subcontractors field office. 8. All excavated materials and stockpiled materials shall be placed a minimum of 2 feet from the edge of the excavation. Loose soil or rocks shall be removed from the sides of excavation walls. 9. Excavations 4 feet in depth or greater shall have a stairway, ladder, ramp, or other safe means of egress within 25 feet of any employee in the excavation. 10. Persons walking or working adjacent to an excavation greater than 6 feet in depth must be protected from fall hazards in accordance with Turners 100% fall protection policy. 11. All excavations shall be inspected by the Subcontractors designated Competent Person before entry, and: o o o o At the start of each shift After heavy rains After freezing and/or thawing temperatures occur After any condition that can change the integrity of the soil
Daily inspection reports will be turned in to the Turner Universal Site Safety Manager. 12. For all excavations 4 feet in depth or greater where hazardous material may exist, the atmosphere in the excavation shall be tested prior to entry and periodically throughout the operation as determined by the Competent Person. 13. The Competent Person responsible for the crew working in the excavation shall inspect the excavation throughout the work period and stop operations when unsafe conditions exist. 14. The number of workers in the excavation shall be limited to the number needed to perform the work. 15. Regardless of depth, the excavation will be protected by safety fence or guardrails. 16. Water shall not be allowed to accumulate in excavations at any time. Pumps, drains, or other means shall be used to remove water constantly. 17. Stability of adjacent structures shall be evaluated before starting an excavation and monitored daily thereafter by the Subcontractor
57
18. Emergency rescue equipment shall be readily available by the Subcontractor 19. No employee shall be permitted underneath loads handled by lifting or excavating equipment.
Training and Documentation 1. A comprehensive training program in the recognition, identification, evaluation and control of excavation hazards must be provided to all workers prior to working in an excavation or trenching operation. This must also include a review of the geo-technical report. 2. Each employee affected by the excavation and trenching systems must be trained in the procedures specific to the project, i.e. access / egress points, location of utilities, etc. 3. Each affected employee must be trained in all sloping, benching, and shoring procedures prior to entering the excavation or trench. 4. A competent person must be on-site throughout the excavation and/or trenching operation to determine soil type through visual and manual testing, hazard identification, effectiveness of sloping, benching, or shoring procedures, etc. 5. Atmospheric monitoring, if deemed necessary by the Competent Person or other competent party, must be documented and conducted by someone trained in the use of atmospheric monitoring equipment.

Effects of Excavating and Trenching on Adjoining Property
Policy Statement Removal of rock or concrete by blasting and pile driving causes vibrations which may be sufficient to damage structures nearby, as may the removal of earth which results in the movement of bracing systems and underpinning, or soil consolidation resulting from lowering of water table, etc. A review of the sub-surface conditions (determined from on-site borings) and the plans of existing buildings (where available) are necessary to evaluate lateral and vertical integrity. An inspection to evaluate the condition of adjoining/existing property shall be completed by the Subcontractor prior to (and possibly after ceasing) operations. The following shall influence the degree of inspection: o o o o The distance of the structures from the hazard. The severity of the hazard. The general condition of the structures. Requirements by local laws, contract and/or liability.
There are four methods of inspection: 1. Casual A visual inspection of the surrounding structures (limited to those portions readily available from the exterior) made by the Subcontractor Job Superintendent. This type of inspection is primarily to determine if a more in depth survey is needed. 2. Detailed Representatives of Turner Universal, the appropriate subSubcontractor, and the neighboring property owner(s) noting the deficiencies informally. 3. Photographic Survey Photographs or videos of the interior or exterior of the structure and adjoining properties shall be taken by a commercial photographer or video service. All photographs or videos shall be dated and made part of the permanent job records.
59
4. A Complete Engineering Survey A consultant hired to completely detail the condition of the structures. Where job operations such as pile driving and blasting may cause vibrations affecting the nearby structures it is required that vibration measurements be made by the Subcontractor, making data available to TURNER UNIVERSAL. This will enable the job to monitor and set up procedures to keep the energy ratio of the vibrations at a safe level. Where settlement of the nearby street, utilities and structures may occur because of excavation and foundation work, the streets, utilities and structures shall be regularly checked for vertical and horizontal movement and a log maintained by the Subcontractor. Any movement shall be investigated immediately. All inspection reports shall be copied to Turner Universal.

Fall Protection
Policy Statement Turner has a Zero Tolerance Policy in effect for violations of our 6 fall prevention policy. Anyone found violating this policy may be permanently removed from the project. Each contractor must submit to Turner the resume of their Competent Person trained in fall prevention techniques. Each contractor working on a Turner project will comply with 29 CFR 1926, Construction Industry Regulations, Subpart M - Fall Protection, in addition to the following guidelines.
Procedures 1. General Fall Protection Requirements a. Each contractor, with employees exposed to a fall greater than 6, must submit their fall prevention plans to Turner prior to beginning work on site. The subcontractor and Turner staff will conduct a bi-weekly inspection of their system. b. At no time shall a Safety Monitor system be used as a means of fall protection. c. A formal audit of the fall projection system must be conducted by the Turner Safety Manager or Project Superintendent on a bi-weekly basis. d. A Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS) comprised of a full body harness, 2 lanyards with double locking snap hooks, a guardrail and / or safety net system must be in place to protect all employees working above 6 feet. e. Covers for roof and floor openings must be secured against accidental displacement and identified as Hole or Cover. Turner recommends that holes greater than 18x 18 be protected by a guardrail system. f. Positive fall protection must be provided while working from low or steep sloped roofs.
g. Employees must be protected from falling objects by the installation of toe boards, barricades or canopy structures. h. Safety harnesses is required when working on suspended scaffolds, articulating man boom lifts, scissor lifts, when working above the protection system at floor openings, unprotected perimeters, and whenever a fall of more than 6 feet could occur. i. During scaffold erection and dismantling the designated competent person overseeing the operation shall determine the feasibility of positive fall protection. If it is deemed that positive fall protection is infeasible, the competent person shall put a fall protection plan, in writing, which meets
61
the Federal OSHA requirements found in Subpart L section 1926.451(g) and submit it to Turner Universal project management for review prior to commencing the operation. 2. Fall Prevention Systems a. Guardrails o o o o o o Floor and roof openings (including Skylights) shall be protected by a standard guardrail or cover. The top rail height of a guardrail system must be 42, + or 3. Midrail heights must be half of that distance. The cable must be flagged at 6 intervals and must be terminated with three Crosby clips on each end. The U-bolt clips must have the U-bolt section on the dead or short end of the rope and the saddle on the live or long end of the rope. When using cables for perimeter guarding closed turnbuckles are to be used for every 3 bays or 100 feet, whichever is less. A Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS) must not be attached to a guardrail system unless the system is designed to accommodate the PFAS. Guardrail systems must be able to withstand a force of 200 lbs. in all directions, without failure, and be smooth surfaced to prevent hand injuries. At no time will any guardrail be used as a horizontal anchorage for personal fall arrest equipment unless specifically designed and maintained for this purpose. The sub contractor installing the perimeter cable guardrail system shall submit a design with details on how the system will be installed and maintained. Wood railings: 1. Posts at least 2 X 4 stock spaced not more than 8 feet apart. 2. The top rail shall be of 2 X 4 stock, and the intermediate rail shall be at least a 1 X 6 board. Toe boards may be constructed of 3 inch board. 3. No double headed nails are to be used in the construction of the railings. o Structural Steel Railings: 1. All railings must be at least 2 X 2 X 3/8 angles, with posts spaced not more than 6 feet apart on centers.
62
Pipe railings: 1. All railings must be at least 1 nominal diameter (schedule 40 pipe) with posts spaced not more than 6 feet apart on centers.
Wire Rope railings: 1. The cables must be 3/8 wire rope, but in no situation may they be less than 3/8 steel cable. 2. Wire rope used for top rails shall be flagged at not more than 6 feet intervals with highly visible materials. 3. Posts shall not be more than 6 feet apart on centers. 4. Wire rope shall be looped and triple clamped at the connecting points. Single cables running past each others with one clamp are not acceptable.
b. Personal Fall Arrest System o o A competent person must assure that fall distance calculations have been evaluated in each circumstance where a PFAS is used. A PFAS is not required when climbing up or down a ladder. However, if employees are working from a ladder, a competent person must determine if positive fall prevention is feasible. Positive fall prevention devices when personnel are working in proximity to any leading edge. All leading edge construction requires the use of a Controlled Access Zone (CAS). Retractable lanyards must incorporate either a 3/16 steel wire cable or a nylon strap with a minimum width of 1. All anchorage points must be capable of supporting a load of no less than 5000 lbs. Steel erectors and metal decking installers must utilize 100% fall prevention devices at all times when working over 6. Horizontal lifelines must be designed by an engineer and installed under the supervision of a qualified person. A safety factor of two must be maintained. Adequate fall prevention devices must be used at all loading platforms prior to removing existing perimeter protection. Lifelines shall be a minimum of 3/4 manila or equivalent secured above the point of operation to an anchorage or structural member capable of supporting a minimum of 5,000 pounds.
o o o o o o
o o
63
Double lanyards, nets, guardrails, or other means shall be used to maintain the 100% positive six-foot fall protection. Safety net systems must be installed as close as practical below the working deck, not to exceed a distance of 30. Safety net systems must be drop tested after initial installation and before being used as a fall prevention system. Additional drop tests are required after any repair, whenever the nets are relocated and at 6-month intervals, if the nets are left in place
c. Safety Net System o o o
Training 1. Each employee exposed to a fall hazard must be trained by a competent person in the recognition and avoidance of such a hazard. Proof of training shall be made available to Turner Universal upon request. 2. Specific training includes, but is not limited to the following: o o The type of fall exposures expected. The correct procedures for erecting, maintaining, dismantling and inspecting of any fall prevention system used by the employee
Turner Universal Management has a Zero Tolerance for anyone or any company not abiding by this policy and anyone caught not abiding by the policy shall be subject to immediate dismissal from the project. The Subcontractor shall also be subject to dismissal from the project.

68
Fire Hazards and Prevention

Policy Statement In order to reduce to a minimum the possibility of fire damage and associated losses incurred during the construction of the project the following are guidelines and requirements to be followed by all Turner Universal employees, and Subcontractors involved on the project. The control of fire hazards and the reduction of losses from fire depend upon four fundamental principles. 1. Fire prevention engineering/ jobsite preplanning. 2. Early detection and extinguishment. 3. Damage control. 4. Prevention of personal injuries from fire or panic. Fundamentals of Fire Safety Preplanning the site is crucial to the protection of lives and property. The basic sequence of actions that must be taken in case of fire is the basis for establishment of the site fire plan. Understanding the actions and why the sequence is important will aid in the plans development. The actions are, in order: 1. Evacuate 2. Notify the Fire Department 3. Fight the fire. The priority of this sequence should not be broken, however, this does not mean that more than one item cannot occur at a time. Types of Fires The Underwriters Laboratory classifies fires by three general types of extinguishing agents. Class A Fires - Fires in ordinary materials such as wood, paper, excelsior, rags and rubbish. The quenching and cooling effects of water or solutions containing large percentages of water are of first importance in these fires. Class B Fires - Fires in such flammable liquids as gasoline, oil and grease require smothering action. Solid streams of water are likely to spread the fire (under certain circumstances water fog nozzles may prove effective).
69
Class C Fires - Fire in or near electrical equipment must be smothered by using a nonconducting agent such as carbon dioxide or dry chemical compounds. Fire extinguishment is usually accomplished by three methods: Eliminate oxygen from the air. Replace air with an inert gas. Apply a non-combustible cover or a chemical which will dilute the oxygen below point of combustion. Remove or shut off the fuel supply. Divert or shut off valves in liquid or gas fuel supply lines and remove the burning fuel. Reduce the temperature below the ignition point. Cool the burning material with water or chemicals.
Procedures 1. General a. A site-specific fire prevention program shall be developed at each Turner project. b. Permit procedures, fire watches, shields and blankets must be considered when developing site-specific fire prevention programs. c. All fire- fighting equipment must be clearly visible and access to the equipment must be maintained at all times. d. A 20 lb. ABC dry chemical fire extinguisher or equivalent must be provided for each 3,000 square feet of protected building area. Typically, it is recommended that an extinguisher be placed at every stairwell on each level. e. Travel distance to a fire extinguisher must not exceed 100 feet. f. Portable fire extinguishers must be inspected monthly. The documentation must be a weather resistant tag attached to the extinguisher.
2. Fire Prevention a. All temporary electric shall be in accordance with all current existing codes. b. Storage of any material within 10 feet of fire hydrants is strictly prohibited.
70
c. Work areas shall be policed by the Subcontractor on a regular basis to prevent accumulation of material. d. No motors or machinery shall be left running during non-working hours except as specifically directed by Turner Universal management. e. All heating equipment shall have necessary safety devices and shall be wired, piped, and operated according to all applicable Codes, Rules and Regulations. f. All tarps and blankets shall be of fire retardant material. g. All fuel and solvent containers shall be placed on drip pans. h. No open burning or fires shall be permitted on site. Anyone doing so is subject to immediate dismissal. i. j. No solid fuel shall be permitted on the site. All gas cylinders such as propane, oxygen and acetylene shall be stored and tied in a vertical position in areas designated by Turner Universal management. All stored cylinders shall be capped. Oxygen will not be stored within 20 feet of any other gas.
k. All gas cylinders in use shall be tied in the vertical position and capped at the end of the working day. l. All oxygen and acetylene in use shall be on proper carts with required separations (1/2 hr. fire rated) and with a fire extinguisher readily available.
m. During welding or cutting operations, a fire extinguisher will be required and shall be the responsibility of the Subcontractor performing this work. n. Each Subcontractor is responsible for training their employees in the proper use of fire extinguishers. o. Roofers kettles shall be kept away from finished walls and material storage areas. A minimum of two 20# ABC fire extinguishers are required next to the kettles. p. Individuals are not permitted to wear oil or tar soaked clothing. q. Spark screens are required on hoist engines and salamanders. r. Temporary offices or trailers, when located inside of a building under construction, must be constructed of fire retardant materials.
s. Combustible materials, such as cardboard, wooden pallets, etc., must be removed from the work area immediately. t. The use of carbon tetrachloride extinguishers is prohibited. 3. Flammable and Combustible Liquids
71
a. Flammable and combustible liquids must be stored in approved safety cans. A safety approved can is a closed container, not more than 5 gallons, with a flash-arresting screen and a spring closing lid. b. Indoor storage of flammable or combustible liquids in excess of 25 gallons must be in an approved cabinet. c. Outdoor storage areas must not exceed 1,110 gallons and must be graded in a manner to divert any spills away from a building. At a minimum, a 12-inch curb or earthen dike must surround the storage area. Where possible secondary containment should be used. Protection with Jersey type barriers is highly recommended. d. At least one 20 lb. ABC dry chemical fire extinguisher (or equivalent) must be located within 25 to 75 of an outdoor storage area. e. Extinguishers shall be stand or wall mounted, visible and easily accessible at all times. They must be distributed so that the distance to an extinguisher from any point on a floor is not more than 75 feet. 4. Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) a. LPG must never be stored inside buildings without an approved plan by Turner Universal. b. When damage to LPG systems from vehicular traffic is possible, precautions must be taken to eliminate the hazard. 5. Temporary Heating Devices a. Fresh air must be supplied in quantities sufficient to maintain the health and safety of all employees. If a competent person deems natural airflow inadequate, then mechanical ventilation must be provided. b. Heaters used in the vicinity of tarpaulins, canvas or similar coverings must be located at least 10 from the covering and be secured so as to prevent ignition due to wind. c. Open fires are not allowed on Turner Universal projects. d. Solid fuel salamanders are not allowed in buildings or on scaffolds.
72
Gasoline Power
Policy Statement Most construction sites have gasoline equipment and thus introduce the hazard of potential fire and dangerous fumes. All welding equipment, generators, equipment that must be used inside the confines of an enclosed building shall have alternative means of energy production, i.e. propane or electrical powered. All Subcontractors on this project shall abide by the following procedures and requirements. Fire OSHA and fire departments have regulations regarding quantity and methods of handling gasoline. The following rules will minimize the danger from fire: 1. Review OSHA and local fire department requirements and comply with these standards. 2. Storage of gasoline containers must comply with OSHA regulations, and fuel transfer operations must be conducted outside of the building. 3. When drums are used for storage, use drum pumps which are designed specifically for flammable liquids. Use safety bungs for the vent opening. These are equipped with perforated cylindrical screens which act as fire baffles. The use of a gravity feed or bottom draw drum is prohibited. 4. Use only approved metal safety cans for filling engine tanks. (automatic safety latch closer and with flash arrestors)(no plastic cans) 5. Shut down engine when refueling. 6. Have a 20 pound ABC dry chemical type extinguisher available wherever flammable liquids are handled. 7. No smoking near gasoline. 8. All drums shall be properly labeled as per OSHA 1926.59 Hazard Communication. Vapors Gas engines exhaust carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. Dioxide is heavier than air; monoxide slightly lighter. A mixture of the gases usually is heavier than air although heat may cause it to rise. Both are without color, taste or smell. Light concentrations cause headache and nausea. Death is swift in heavy concentrations. A few minutes may be too long. Dont discount this hazard. If anyone exhibits symptoms, do not attempt rescue without proper personal protection equipment (See Confined Spaces)
73
Do not run gas engines in pits, manholes or confined spaces without positive ventilation. Always pipe gas engine exhausts to outside air when engine is located in enclosed space. Start blower before engine. If engine stops, be sure space is well blown out before sending anyone in to restart. If in doubt, check for gas with CO Tester. Danger spots are deep excavations, pits, manholes, hoist engineers shanties, pipe or crawl spaces under basement floors, and where gas heaters are used.
74

109
Health & Environmental Issues (Section C)

Asbestos
Policy Statement Asbestos is a widely used, mineral-based material that is resistant to heat and corrosive chemicals. Typically, asbestos appears as a whitish, fibrous material, which may release fibers that range in texture from coarse to silky; however, airborne fibers are too small to see with the naked eye. Subcontractors are not required to perform any work involving asbestos or asbestos-like materials unless specifically stated in a contract. However, if subcontractors suspect the presence of such materials at any work site, they shall immediately inform their supervisor. If a Subcontractor is required to work in and/or around asbestos, that Subcontractor is solely responsible to meet all applicable Federal OSHA standards regarding asbestos.
Procedures 1. Workers shall not touch, remove, demolish, or in any other manner disturb materials that are suspected to contain asbestos. 2. Workers will immediately stop work in the affected area and will inform Turner Universal if asbestos is suspected to be present at a location.
110
Bloodborne Pathogens
Policy Statement Bloodborne Pathogens are disease-causing organisms transmitted through contact with infected blood and other bodily fluids. Diseases such as the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Hepatitis B are among the most common forms of bloodborne pathogens. Any exposure to an infected individuals body fluids may result in transmission of bloodborne pathogens, which could lead to disease or death. This program will apply to all Turner employees who could be "reasonable anticipated", as a result of performing their job duties, to come in contact with blood and other potentially infectious bodily fluids. Turner employees trained and certified in first aid and CPR who might be "reasonable anticipated" to come in contact with bodily fluids also must follow the rules and regulations set forth in this program. Procedures 1. When dealing with blood or other bodily fluids, Subcontractor employees are required to follow Universal Precautions. Accordingly, all human blood and other human body fluids are treated as if known to be infectious for HIV, Hepatitis B, and other bloodborne pathogens. 2. All Subcontractors are required to make available to their employees rubber gloves (usually latex) rated at 5 microns or less and one way resuscitation masks. 3. All certified first aid providers are required to wear disposable latex gloves and eye protection while performing first aid on an injured individual. If rescue breathing or CPR is performed, a one way resuscitation mask shall be provided by for the protection of the injured and the provider. 4. All blood spills shall be immediately contained and cleaned with an anti-viral solution, or by a 5:1 water to bleach solution. by the Subcontractor. (Unless local authorities prohibit such action) 5. Any material saturated with blood shall be considered Regulated Waste. This means liquid or semi-liquid blood or other potentially infectious materials; contaminated items that would release blood or other potentially infectious materials in a liquid or semi-liquid state if compressed; and items that are caked with dried blood or other potentially infectious materials. Discarded Band-Aids and gauze containing small amounts of blood products are not considered regulated waste. Disposal of all regulated waste shall be the responsibility of emergency medical personnel or the Subcontractor of the injured employee.
111
Training At least one Turner jobsite person shall be trained in First Aid and CPR, and they also shall be trained in the decontamination of blood spills. All individuals are encouraged to attend training in emergency first aid procedures at each jobsite. At all times every project will have on site a FA/CPR trained representative from Turner Construction and each subcontractor.
112
Carbon Monoxide
Policy Statement Carbon monoxide is formed by the incomplete combustion of carbonaceous materials such as coke, oil, gasoline, and natural or manufactured gas. It is flammable, toxic, nonirritating, tasteless, odorless, and heavier than air. When inhaled it combines with hemoglobin of blood, excluding oxygen from the tissues, ultimately resulting in asphyxia. Some of the common symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are shortness of breath, headache, dizziness, muscular weakness and nausea.
Temporary heaters and/or gasoline motors used where people are working in confined and/or depressed areas produce the greatest carbon monoxide poisoning exposures and are prohibited on this project. Procedures Use of any device that discharges the products of combustion into a inside work area of any employee requires testing defined below: 1. Monitor the work area to determine the concentration of carbon monoxide at least three times each 8 hour period. Monitoring shall be conducted with a UL approved monitoring device, such as a LEL/02/H2S/CO 4-gas monitor. 2. Monitor several different points within the area and at the breathing heights of an employee. 3. Maintain a record of these tests, noting the date, time and result of each test. Provide the monitoring results to all affected employees within the work area, if requested. Once the project is complete, these records must be archived with Business Unit Safety Director. 4. Remove the employees from the area when the concentration of carbon monoxide reaches 20 PPM. Supplemental ventilation or elimination of the source shall be provided to reduce the concentration to a level below 20 PPM before the employees are allowed to resume work in the area. 5. Test greater than 3 times per day when the concentration reaches a steady concentration greater than 20 PPM.
113
Solid Fuel Salamanders are prohibited within buildings and on scaffolds. 1. OSHA has interpreted that this rule was adopted to prevent fires and carbon monoxide hazards associated with the burning of spark-producing fuels (wood and paper) in open salamanders, and was not intended to apply to properly constructed and equipped solid fuel (coke and coal) salamanders used in structures under construction. The use of solid fuel salamanders (heating units with combustion exhausting into the surrounding enclosed atmosphere) are only allowed in open spaced areas.
114
Carbon Tetrachloride
Policy Statement Carbon Tetrachloride (CC14), a poisonous, nonflammable, colorless liquid, has been used extensively as a cleanser and as a fire extinguishing agent. Individuals have died from exposure to its fumes even while working in the open in a short period of two hours. The usual symptoms are nausea and headache. The liver is violently attacked and death follows swiftly. The use of Tetrachloride solvents is prohibited on this project. If there is an exceptional condition that requires the use of this chemical, elaborate precautions for ventilation, respirators, etc. shall be followed, and prior approval given by the Turner Universal Superintendent. Fire extinguishers containing tetrachloride are prohibited on this project.
Procedures 1. Alternate Cleaning Solvents Safer cleaning fluids with lower toxicity which is not cumulative and that do not react with steel, aluminum, copper or brass are required. Adequate ventilation is required. 2. Cleaning Solvent Protection Rubber Gloves or Protex shall be used as all solvents remove oil from the skin. Protex - One of the Invisible Glove Compounds, this is a protective cream put out by DuPont in jars. It is applied to the skin, which is exposed to these solvents and acts as protection. It is available in most paint and hardware stores.
115
Confined Spaces
Policy Statement No Turner Construction Company (Turner) or Subcontractor employee shall enter into any type of confined space, until the atmosphere of the space has been tested by a competent person and all applicable safety requirements contained in this procedure have been met. According to the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) the definition of a confined space is one which by design has limited openings for entry and exit, and unfavorable natural ventilation which could contain or produce dangerous air contaminants. On this project we may create many temporary confined spaces by operating in areas prior to the permanent ventilation system being installed. Hazardous confined spaces are divided into three main categories: 1. Lack of Oxygen
Normal air is 21% oxygen by volume. Shall the percentage drop to near 17% drowsiness and impaired ability to think clearly occur. Anything below 12% causes unconsciousness.
2. Combustible or Explosive
Any contaminant in a confined space creates the possibility of fire or explosion. Heat, static electricity, etc. can cause ignition. Many gases are heavier than air and collect in the bottom of pits, trenches, sewers, and rooms. Not only gases are a problem, dusts too can be explosive. Many operations, particularly cutting and welding, create hazards in confined spaces since the use of any combustible or explosive chemical in a confined space allows the buildup of dust and vapor.
3. Toxic Atmosphere
We are all aware of the dangers of toxic substances in storage tanks, the less obvious are the toxic situations you might find in construction. Toxic chemicals can be brought into confined spaces. Welding, cutting, painting, etc. can raise the level of chemicals in a confined space to hazardous levels. We shall recognize that confined space hazards exist in construction and are not a problem confined to storage tanks, silos, etc.
116
There are two (2) types of confined space: 1. Non-Permit Confined Space 2. Permit-Required Confined Space
Non-permit confined space is defined as any space that: o o o o Has a limited or restricted means for access and egress. Is large enough and configured in such a way that an employee can bodily enter and perform work. Is not designed for continuous occupancy. Does not pose a health or safety risk as described in permit-required confined space
Examples include but are not limited to non-energized HVAC equipment, certain trenches and excavations. These shall be evaluated by the competent person in charge of the work who is fully familiar with the standards relating to confined space. Permit-required confined space is defined to include one or more of the following: o o o o Contains or has the potential to contain a hazardous atmosphere. Contains a material that has the potential for engulfing an entrant. Has an internal configuration that could trap or asphyxiate an entrant. Contains any other recognized serious safety or health hazard.
Examples of this type of space include but are not limited to: caissons, tanks, vessels, and underground piping and tunneling.
Procedures 1. Pre-Entry Assessment Prior to any employee entering a confined space a competent person shall evaluate the area in order to determine if it is a NonPermit or a Permit Required space. Depending upon the type of confined space identified, specific criteria must be satisfied before entry.
117
2. Signage - If the workplace contains permit spaces, the entry supervisor shall inform employees by posting danger signs at all entrances of confined spaces. The signs will be legible in English and in the predominant language of nonEnglish reading workers. At a minimum, the following information will be included: DANGER PERMIT-REQUIRED CONFINED SPACE
DO NOT ENTER
3. Authorized Entry - If permit spaces exist in the workplace, only authorized employees may enter the spaces. The Entry Supervisor shall take effective measures to prevent unauthorized employees from entering into permit spaces. 4. Modification of Non-Permit Spaces - If non-permit spaces are modified, or experience any change that causes an increased hazard to entrants, the supervisor of the exposed employees, shall ensure that the space is reevaluated by the competent person. 5. Permit Required Spaces If permit spaces are identified, the following program elements must be addressed in a Written Project Specific Confined Space Procedure. This procedure must be approved in advance by the Project Site Safety Manager. a. Environmental Controls to ensure that pre-entry precautions (i.e. hazard evaluations, operating procedures, isolation methods, safety equipment, etc.) have been implemented. b. Atmospheric Testing for oxygen content, explosive vapors, toxic substances and carbon monoxide to ensure that acceptable entry conditions exist. c. Assigned Duties of each participant must be established and clearly communicated. d. Rescue Equipment and Emergency Services develop and implement procedures for summoning rescue and emergency services, for rescuing entrants from permit spaces, for providing necessary emergency services to rescued employees and for preventing unauthorized personnel from attempting a rescue. e. Entry Permit System - used to record critical data and serve as official entry authorization must be implemented and managed accordingly following the completion of permit space work.
118
f.
Training of employees expected to enter permit spaces must be provided to ensure that they understand their duties and the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.146.
g. Medical Surveillance Program for all employees who must enter permit spaces shall be established to ensure that they have been medically evaluated and cleared to work in such spaces. 6. Coordinate for shut off, lock out and tag out all energy sources and mechanical hazards. 7. Verify ventilation or engineering controls of the confined space. 8. Inform the Turner Universal Superintendent of the competent person designated for the work. 9. Coordinate for local rescue teams services and confirm they are trained in confined space entry/rescue. 10. Have on site the fall protection, perimeter protection, signage and personal protective equipment necessary for working in a confined space.
Training Entrants, attendants, rescuers and entry supervisors shall be trained by the Subcontractor or his designee prior to performing any duties relating to permit-required confined space.
Recordkeeping Copies of all Subcontractor atmosphere testing, entry logs, training, and any medical records shall be given to Turner Universal for record retention.
119
Contaminated Spills
Policy Statement The introduction of undesirable elements or substances into the ground that may or may not impact the environment in a negative way. This can be caused by several sources both past and present. Contamination refers to the impact of these sources in any amount and at any degree below or above permissible levels for health and safety toward the environment or to life. Hazardous means it has elevated above the permissible levels for health and safety toward the environment and life and is regulated under government standards. Turner Universals primary concern is to protect the workers and the environment in the event of an incidental spill on this project.
Procedures 1. If a spill occurs at the project, the spill shall be isolated/contained to prevent contamination of the surrounding area, waterways, sewer systems or any other environmental impact.
2. The Subcontractor is responsible for all the costs associated with the cleanup and disposal of the contaminated/hazardous materials.
3. If a spill occurs, the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for the chemical will provide the emergency information necessary to address the spill. Also, the emergency cleanup team will need a copy of the MSDS in order to begin the cleanup process. 4. The Subcontractor shall immediately notify Turner Universal in the event of any spill.
Training All Subcontractors shall have the appropriate trained employees assigned to the project that are capable of handling spills. Whenever chemicals are brought on site the material safety data sheet shall be reviewed with all personnel exposed to its usage
120
Recordkeeping All Subcontractor records regarding spills shall copied and given Turner Universal for filing.
121
Fluorescent Lamps
Policy Statement In addition to the possibility of cuts from glass fragments, serious injury can result from broken fluorescent tubes due to the release of the small amounts of mercury vapor they contain. Mercury vapor, even in very small quantities, is poisonous. Persons exposed in close proximity or who are cut shall consult a doctor immediately so they may take necessary precautions. Special regulations also affect the disposal of fluorescent lamp ballasts that contain PCBs. Subcontractors who shall complete work with fluorescent lamps shall get prior approval from the Turner Universal Superintendent.
122
Fluorescent Lighting Circuits

Policy Statement In 1996, 25% of fatal construction Incidents were caused by electricity. This statistic is too high, and we need to be aware of electrical safety. Some of these fatalities were caused by 277 volt fluorescent lighting circuits. Multi-gang lighting toggle switch boxes are available in standard two, three, four, five, six, seven, and eight gang. Although it is common on commercial projects to install three or more switches in a single box, it is important to understand how dangerous these boxes are. They are particularly dangerous when used to control 277 volt fluorescent lighting circuits. In a three gang switch box, when one switch is on a different circuit than the other two, this means that the box contains two different phase (positive) legs and the voltage across these legs (phase to phase) is 480 volts. The misconception is that the lighting system is only 270 volts without giving any thought to the potential that there are 480 volts in the box. If you notice wires (brown, orange, yellow or gray boy) in outlet, junction, or pull boxes, you shall not touch or move them, since they may be energized and have the required National Electrical Code colors for a 480 volt system. Only trained Subcontractor electricians are to work on toggle switches that control 277 volt fluorescent lighting circuits.
123
Hazard Communication
Policy Statement OSHAs Hazard Communication Standard, also known as the Employee Right to Know Law, requires each employer to establish a hazard communication program. This program must provide a means to inform employees about the hazards associated with chemicals that they may be exposed to in the workplace. Turners Hazard Communication Program (HCP) has been established to comply with this standard by ensuring that hazards associated with chemicals in the workplace are communicated to all employees who may be exposed to them. The Turner HCP applies to all employees (Turner, Contractor, and Subcontractor employees) who perform work on projects managed by Turner. The communication of potential hazards associated with chemicals and hazardous materials in the work place shall be accomplished by means of implementing the following practices on each job site. 1. A written hazard communication program 2. Use of container labeling 3. Availability of Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) 4. Maintenance of an on-site Chemical Inventory 5. Employee training.
Procedures 1. Written Hazard Communication Program - Each Business Unit shall include the Turner Universal HCP in its safety program and ensure that a site - specific HCP is provided for each job. The jobsite program document must describe the manner in which labeling, MSDSs and employee training requirements will be satisfied. The BUSD shall assist the Project Staff with development of this program. 2. Chemical Inventory List - A list of chemicals know to be present on the jobsite will be compiled by the Turner Universal Project Staff. This list will be maintained in the project office and will be updated on a monthly basis. The list of the hazardous chemicals must be assigned a unique identifier (i.e. number scheme) that can be cross-referenced on each corresponding MSDS. Each subcontractor will submit an updated Chemical Inventory List to the Turner Universal Project Staff. 3. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) - The Turner Universal Project Staff will be responsible for obtaining and maintaining the on-site file of all MSDSs supplied by each Subcontractor. Only MSDS information for materials specific to the site and less than 5 years old shall be accepted. While all MSDSs may not be uniform in appearance, they must convey the following information:
124
a. Identity of the Product. b. Known acute and chronic health effects and related health information (Target organ effects). c. Exposure Limits (TLV) Threshold Limit Value. d. If the product is a suspected carcinogen. e. Personal protective equipment to be used. f. Emergency and First-Aid procedures. g. Identification of the party responsible for the MSDS. 4. Container Labeling A written description of the labeling system used by subcontractors must be described in their program document. All secondary containers used with small quantities of a given material must also be properly labeled. Labels may be in writing, pictures, numerical system or any combination of the preceding. The message must be understood as to the nature of the hazard, personal protective equipment needed, parts of the body affected and emergency procedures. The Turner Universal Project Staff will verify that all containers of hazardous chemicals received for use display the following information: a. Chemical identity of the contents. b. Appropriate hazard warning label. c. Names and addresses of the manufacturers. 5. Employee Training and Education - The Turner Universal Project Superintendent is responsible for training Turner employees with regards to the HCP. Subcontractors are responsible for the training of their employees. Verification is required to be shared with Turner Universal Training should include but not be limited to: a. How to read and understand the information provided on the MSDSs. b. How to interpret warning information provided by hazard warning labels. c. An overview of the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1926.59). d. The inclusion of welding or burning gases, cement, solvents, glues, wood dust, and soldering fumes as examples of common items to most jobsite, which present hazardous exposures to employees. e. All employees attending a training class will sign an attendance form to verify that they have been properly trained in the Hazard Communication Program. 6. Hazardous non-routine tasks - Periodically, employees are required to perform hazardous non-routine tasks. An example of hazardous non-routine tasks is confined space entry to check the bottom of caisson. Prior to starting work on such projects, each affected employee will be given information by their
125
supervisor about hazardous chemicals to which they may be exposed during such activity. This information will include, but not be limited to: a. Specific chemical hazards. b. Measures that employees will take to prevent exposures. c. Measures the company has taken to lessen the hazard, including ventilation, respirators, presence of another employee, and emergency procedures. 7. Demolition / Renovation - When doing renovations or demolition at a jobsite, it is important to know the contents of all unmarked pipes, vessels, tanks or other type of containers as well as the location of lead, asbestos or other potentially hazardous materials that may be encountered. This information should be obtained from the Phase 1 Environmental Assessment and/or similar reports provided by the building owner. Once such information is identified, all of the above Hazard Communication program requirements must be enforced in order to communicate appropriate information to employees. Training In compliance with the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (HCS), Turner Construction Company has developed a Hazard Communication Program. This program is intended to inform employees of the potential hazards of chemical products that they may be exposed to while on the jobsite. By providing this information, our goal is to ensure that proper precautions are taken to minimize the health risks associate with the use of materials used in the construction of any building by Turner. In accordance with Turner policy, a written Hazard Communication Program (HCP) is prepared and maintained on the job by the Turner Project Staff. Included are specific guidelines concerning requirements of the Federal Law, such as material safety data sheets, labeling and personal protection. The following areas must be covered during each training session: 1. Material Safety Data Sheets - These are information sheets developed by the manufacturer of products (i.e. glues, solvents, paints, insulation), which contain hazardous materials. MSDSs are obtained by Turner for all material brought on the site by Turner or any subcontractor. 2. Labeling - Labels are provided by manufacturers and must be attached to each container of a product (i.e. paint, caulk, thinner, glue, or other material) that contains hazardous ingredients and is used on the job. Labels may include writing, pictures or number information, but in each case are designed to point out the nature of the hazard, personal protective equipment needed, parts of the body that may be affected and any emergency procedures. Labels from the containers should never be removed.
126
3. Personal Protective Equipment - If personal protection is required, it will be provided for you by Turner or by subcontractors. In most cases, you will need nothing more complicated than safety glasses or goggles, gloves or a respirator. Equipment you will need will be determined by the information on the MSDS provided by the products manufacturer.
Responsibilities 1. Turner Universal a. Must conduct inspections of the workplace for compliance with this policy. b. Must discuss policy applications during project orientation with subcontractors. 2. Subcontractors a. Must comply with and furnish materials necessary to comply with Turner policy. b. Must conduct HCP Training for their employees and participate in project orientations. c. All subcontractors and lower tier subcontractors are to supply the Turner Universal Superintendent with a written copy of their Hazard Communication Program along with MSDSs of any chemical materials brought on to the jobsite. d. The exchange of MSDSs on this project shall take place initially when the subcontractor comes onto the site at regular site safety meetings, and/or at any other designated time by the Turner Construction Company Superintendent. e. All subcontractors and lower tier subcontractors are to abide by this exchange and are to immediately inform the Turner Universal Superintendent of any new chemical substances brought onto the jobsite
127
Lead
Policy Statement Turner is not in the business of performing lead abatement work It is the policy of Turner to refrain from engaging in the removal or abatement of lead containing materials when performing renovation or building activities. Turner will request that owners have an inspection made by a certified testing company, industrial hygienist, or lead removal contractor prior to the start of work. Where lead is found, the owner must contract for its removal. Turner must obtain certification that the lead has been removed and the area is safe to work. Lead is a hazardous material and thus is highly regulated to protect people (workers and public) and the environment. Lead can get into your body as fumes containing lead are formed during the melting or paving process when lead is heated to extreme temperatures, i.e., plumbing, removing paint or soldering. Dust containing lead is formed during sandblasting, grinding, sanding or cutting processes. Mist containing lead is formed during spray painting operations which use lead base paints. It is Turner Universals intent to never expose workers to the hazards created by improper handling of lead materials. If a Subcontractor shall perform work with lead, the Subcontractor is solely responsible to follow the Federal OSHA standards on lead.
Procedures 1. Prior to the start of work, Turner will request the building owner to provide a predemolition survey for lead based materials, prepared by a qualified consultant. 2. All individuals must receive Lead Hazard Awareness Training prior to beginning work in areas that have materials containing lead. 3. If the assessment identifies lead containing material, Turner will request that the owner remove or abate the area of concern and provide written certification (e.g. clean letter) that the ambient condition of the area is below OSHAs action level for lead (<30ug/m3).
128
4. If lead is encountered during construction activity, Turner will stop work and request that the owner remove or abate the material. 5. Before resuming work, The Turner Superintendent will request a written certification (e.g. clean letter) that the ambient condition of the remediated area is below OSHAs action level for lead (<30ug/m3). 6. If the owner requests that Turner perform the abate work, a contract of convenience must be entered into with Turner and only qualified remediation contractors, who satisfy company pollution liability requirements, will be retained. 7. The Turner Superintendent must notify the Business Unit Safety Director (BUSD) and the BU Claims Coordinator. They will then notify the appropriate TCS Regional Claims Manager. 8. The BUSD will complete the Turner Environmental Risk Investigation Report and submit it to the Business Unit Operations Manager, Regional Operations Manager, Regional Safety Director and Regional Claims Manager. 9. If Turner is contractually obligated to manage the remediation and the estimate exceeds $25,000, the Project Manager must secure written approval from the Operations Manager and Vice President, Corporate Safety. 10. Subcontractors shall not touch, remove, demolish, or in any other manner disturb materials that are suspected to contain lead unless procedures have been approved by the Turner Universal Superintendent.
Roles & Responsibilities 1. Turner Universal a. Ensure compliance with this policy. b. Must discuss policy applications during project orientation with subcontractors. c. Must provide Lead Hazard Awareness Training to all employees working in or around material containing lead. 2. Subcontractor & their Subcontractors & employees a. Must comply with and furnish materials necessary to comply with Turner policy. b. Must attend and participate in the Lead Hazard Awareness Training. c. Must report stop work & immediately report anytime lead containing material is discovered or disturbed.
Procedures (if Turner Universal is managing the remediation)
129
1. In the event work shall proceed with lead containing materials, the following shall be required to ensure compliance with Federal laws: a. Engineering Controls i. Exposures shall not exceed the OSHA interim final PEL of 50 micrograms per cubic meter of air (50 ug/cu.m.) averaged over an 8-hour-period.\ ii. When feasible engineering controls and work practices controls cannot reduce worker exposure to lead to at or below 50 ug/cu.m., respirators shall be used to supplement the use of engineering and work practice controls. iii. The Subcontractor Competent Person shall review all site operations and stipulate the specific engineering controls and work practices designed to reduce worker exposure to lead. b. Exhaust Ventilation i. Power tools used for the removal of lead-based paint shall be equipped with dust collection shrouds or other attachments in order to exhaust the contaminated air through a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) vacuum system. ii. Operations such as welding, cutting/burning, heating shall be provided with local exhaust ventilation. iii. HEPA vacuums shall be used during clean-up activities. c. Housekeeping i. Daily removal of accumulations of lead dust and lead-containing debris is required. ii. Vacuuming lead dust with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA)filtered equipment or wetting it with water before sweeping are effective control measures. iii. Cleaning activities as much as possible are to be completed after normal work hours, i.e., at the end of the day. iv. All persons doing the cleanup shall be provided with suitable respiratory protection and personal protective clothing to prevent contact with lead. v. All lead-containing debris and contaminated items accumulated for disposal shall be collected and put into sealed impermeable bags or other closed impermeable containers. vi. Bags and containers shall be appropriately labeled as leadcontaining waste. d. Respirator Protection
130
i. Follow project Respiratory Protection Plan. e. Medical Surveillance i. When a construction employee is occupationally exposed to lead at or above the action level of 30 ug/cu.m. on any one day in a calendar year, the employee shall be provided initial medical surveillance consisting of biological monitoring in the form of blood sampling and analysis for lead and zinc protoporphyrin levels. ii. Workers potentially exposed to lead at or above the action level shall be monitored for the presence of lead in the blood and the effects of lead on the blood-forming system. iii. Full medical surveillance is to be provided to employees exposed to lead at or above the action level for more than 30 days per year. iv. The following conditions necessitate an immediate medical consultation including, as determined by the qualified medical provider, a physical examination and a blood sample for lead analysis (biological monitoring): v. Whenever a worker develops signs or symptoms associated with lead toxicity. vi. Before a worker restarts work following medical removal. f. Biological Monitoring i. Baseline blood levels is a requirement prior to the start of all projects contaminated with lead. ii. Blood lead and zinc protoporphyrin (ZPP) or free erythrocyte protoporphyrin (FEP) shall be monitored for those workers exposed to lead. iii. Workers in high-risk occupations shall be monitored as often as needed to prevent adverse health effects g. Recordkeeping i. Subcontractor shall maintain any employee exposure and medical records to document ongoing employee exposure, medical monitoring and medical removal of workers.
131
Respiratory Protection
Policy Statement Turner Universal is committed to maintaining an injury and illness free workplace, and is making every effort to protect all employees from harmful airborne substances. Whenever it is feasible to do so, this will be accomplished through engineering controls such as ventilation or substitution with a less harmful substance, and through administrative controls limiting the duration of exposure. When these methods are not adequate, or if the exposures are brief and intermittent, or simply to minimize employee exposure to airborne substances, Turner Universal and Subcontractors are to provide respirators to allow their employees to breathe safety in potentially hazardous environments. We recognize that respirators have limitations and their successful use is dependent on an effective respiratory protection program. Our full Respiratory Protection Program is designed to identify, evaluate and control exposure to respiratory hazards and to provide for the proper use, care and maintenance of respiratory equipment. The project Respiratory Protection Program is designed to be a guide for all Subcontractors to: identify, evaluate and control exposure to respiratory hazards; select coordinate all aspects required for proper use, care and maintenance of the equipment. In all instances the Subcontractor is to abide also by their own company Respiratory Protection Program. Compliance with this policy applies to filtering face-piece respirators (dust masks) as well.
Procedures 1. Responsibility a. Provide leadership by example and demonstrate interest by ensuring that adequate resources are available for effective implementation of their companys Respiratory Protection Program and the projects program. b. A formal annual audit of the Respiratory program is required for all companies who actively using respirators. A Respirator Program Evaluation Worksheet should be used to document the evaluation and to record recommended changes. 2. Workplace Exposure Assessment & Ongoing Surveillance a. Complete an exposure assessment to identify harmful airborne contaminants, their extent and magnitude, and how to control them.
132
b. Maintain a record of the evaluation. 3. Respirator Selection a. Different types of respirators are available for a variety of applications, and we shall ensure that the proper NIOSH approved respirator is selected and used for the kind of work being performed (or anticipated) and hazards involved. 4. Evaluating Respirator Wearers Health Status a. Even with appropriate equipment and adequate training provided, an employee's health status shall be considered before allowing respirator use. The wearer's physical and medical condition, duration and difficulty of the tasks, toxicity of the contaminant, and type of respirator all affect an employee's ability to wear a respirator while working. Also, respirators are uncomfortable and may reduce the wearer's field of vision. Therefore it is prudent for us to. Construction work or work with lead, asbestos, cotton dust and certain carcinogens make this evaluation mandatory. b. Each respirator candidate will be given a medical evaluation. A Medical Evaluation and Work Restriction report as well as a Respiratory Protection Notification form allowing use of a respirator is to be obtained for each individual and kept on file. 5. Respirator Fit Testing & Assignment a. After the Subcontractor selects the appropriate type of respirator and certify their employee's ability to work while wearing a respirator, they shall conduct a qualitative fit test to choose the best fitting face piece and determine the specific brand, model and size for each employee. b. Quantitative fit is the preferred alternative to qualitative fitting. Although it requires specialized equipment and trained personnel, some exposures require a quantitative fit test. 6. Training a. Once the employee is fitted with the correct respirator for the task, that employee must be thoroughly trained in the need, use, limitations, inspection, fit checks, maintenance and storage of the equipment. This training may be initiated during the fit test. b. The manufacturer of the equipment provides detailed instructions for use and care of the respirator, and this information is to be used in the training. The Respirator User Training and Education Form is to be used as a guide and record of training received. 7. Recordkeeping a. Turner Universal will verify documentation of each major component of the program to verify that each activity has occurred and evaluate the success of the program to satisfy regulatory requirements.
133
b. These records include the written program, exposure determination, respirator selection, physical status evaluation, fit testing and respirator assignment, training form and program assessment. c. All records that involve Turner Universal employees must be sent to the Business Unit Safety Director and archived for a minimum of 30 years.
134
Silica Dust
Policy Statement Exposure to silica can lead to silicosis, a serious and sometimes fatal respiratory disease. Silicosis develops from being exposed to and breathing in silica dust. Excessive amounts of silica dust may be generated during activities such as: sandblasting, rock drilling, roof bolting, foundry work, stonecutting, drilling, quarrying, brick/block/concrete cutting, gunite operations, lead-based paint encapsulate applications, asphalt paving, cement products manufacturing, demolition operations, hammering, and chipping and sweeping concrete or masonry. The following policy is designed to protect employees who may come into contact with silica during the course of their work. This policy is designed for Turner Construction Employees. Subcontractors must be required to submit and have approved by Turner their companys Silica Exposure Prevention program prior to start of work.
Procedures In order to determine whether a product contains silica, the Material Safety Data Sheet must be obtained and evaluated. In the event silica is present in products on-site, the following safe working procedures shall be followed to eliminate or control silica dust exposure: 1. The Project Safety Orientation should include information on potential areas for exposure and the hazards of silica exposure. 2. Engineering controls must be considered as a primary means to eliminate the hazard, whenever feasible. 3. Industrial hygiene exposure monitoring must be conducted in order to confirm that the engineering and administrative controls in place are effective and whether personal protective equipment (PPE) is or is not required. 4. If PPE is required, refer to Turners Respiratory Protection Program for specific guidelines. 5. After working with products that contain silica, each individual will be required to thoroughly wash their hands before eating, drinking or smoking. Eating, drinking or smoking near silica or in a silica-regulated areas is strictly prohibited. 6. Always wet dry materials and surfaces before cutting, chipping, grinding, sanding, sweeping or cleaning. This engineering control shall be used to the greatest extent feasible, so that airborne concentrations of silica are minimized.
135
7. Use power tools with built-in high-efficient particulate air (HEPA) dust extraction units to capture the dust before it is released into the exhausted air. 8. Turner will not allow the use of any compound used for abrasive cleaning that contains more than 1% silica. Employee sampling must be conducted to verify that concentrations released from the media being finished does not exceed allowable OHSA PELs. For abrasive blasting, replace silica sand with less toxic materials. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health highly discourages the use of sand or any abrasive with more that 1% crystalline silica in it. As an alternative, garnet, slag and steel grit and shot may be suitable substitutes. 9. All subcontractors are to supply any exposure monitoring, testing, or engineering information regarding silica exposure in their operations prior to beginning work. An example may be the masonry contractor using brick/block saws and associated experience data that the subcontractor has obtained.
136
Medical Issues (Section D)

First Aid/CPR
Policy Statement First aid and medical services are important components of Turners loss prevention and injury management efforts. If the project is not reasonably accessible to a medical care facility, each subcontractor must have one person on site with a valid certificate in first aid and CPR. Turner Construct will have at all times a individual on site with a valid certificate in first aid and CPR. Procedures 1. OCIPs with a contract volume in excess of $100 million dollars will be required to supply a staffed medical trailer. National contracts have been signed with several vendors. Contact the Business Unit Safety Director or TCS for a list of vendors in your area. 2. Implement the placement of AEDs (Automated External Defibrillators) in business unit offices and consider AED placement on projects. 3. First aid supplies must be easily accessible. In addition to the First Aid Kit Turner Supplies, each subcontractor kit must be in compliance with Turners Blood borne Pathogen Policy. 4. The contents of the first aid kit shall be placed in a weatherproof container with individual sealed packages for each type of item, and must be inspected at least weekly. 5. Emergency telephone numbers must be conspicuously posted. For serious incidents, the National Crisis Hotline must be implemented, per Turner policy. 6. Where the eyes or body of any person may be exposed to injurious corrosive materials, suitable facilities for quick drenching or flushing of the eyes and body must be provided within the work area for immediate emergency use.
