Work Permit Any document issued to formally approve a work task and set conditions for that task. See Permit to Work. Contractors Safety and Environmental Plan General Safe working is dependent on correct planning. Z Energy therefore requires that contractors prepare a documented safety plan whenever high or medium risk activities are involved or work is ongoing. Hazard Identification, Severity Rating and Control methods. As a minimum this plan shall include a formal method of hazard identification, and describe the methods required to address all hazards identified. Preferably the plan should include a formal method of rating hazards by severity, and likelihood to determine significance. Hazard assessments should be updated through- out the course of the works. Safe Work Method Statement/Job Safety Analysis Such a method should include a system employing Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS)/Job Safety Analysis (JSA)or similar instrument where individual tasks are subject to risk management and analysis to determine hazards, their significance and appropriate controls. Approval and monitoring of Safety Plans Pre-approval of safety plans and changes to the safety plan by Z Energy is mandatory for some high-risk activities and may be a general requirement. Such approval does not remove from the contractor the obligation to continuously monitor such Safety Plans and if necessary modify such plans for changed conditions, or to address further hazards identified in the course of the works. Any operative safety plan must be continuously available for inspection and should be checked periodically for compliance by both the contractor operating to the plan and by Z Energy or its agent. External compliance agencies can also be expected to require such plans and monitor compliance. The following checklist may be used as a guide by contractors to prepare a Safety Plan and by Z Energy to check the completeness of any such plan. It should be noted that once petroleum products are delivered onto a new build site it becomes an active site and the safety requirements must change to reflect the additional hazards imposed. Hazard Communication Process Ensure that all identified hazards, preventive measure and controls addressed in JHA/HSSE cases are communicated effectively to trained sub-contractor workers who will perform and execute specific works at site (during tool box talks prior to assignment and sign-off for understanding of safety briefing).
