Welcome Contractor Safety Meeting 2015 Waupaca Foundry, Inc. Contractor Safety Program • This program has been established to provide Waupaca Foundry, Inc. with a screening process for all potential Contractors and Subcontractors. • The selection process allows Waupaca Foundry, Inc. to hire companies that will accomplish the desired job tasks without compromising the Health and Safety of our employees and visitors; as well as the contractors themselves while at our facility. Contractor Definition: • A “Contractor” is an individual, service firm, company, or other non-WF employee, performing on-site work for Waupaca Foundry, Inc. at our discretion through contracts, subcontracts, purchase orders or other directives. • Examples of contractors are: – – – – – – Mechanics, millwrights, plumbers, and electricians. Heating, ventilating, and air conditioning services. Compressed gas cylinder suppliers and bulk chemical suppliers. Bulk fuel and oil delivery companies. Building and grounds maintenance. Equipment maintenance personnel (computers, telephones, fork trucks, crane rental etc.) Subcontractor Definition: • Companies that are hired by the contractor, sometimes referred to as “subcontractors” must also complete the Waupaca Foundry, Inc. safety program. – Subcontractors must meet the same requirements as contractors. – Subcontractors must also be pre-approved for work at Waupaca Foundry, Inc. – It is the responsibility of the Contractor to ensure all sub-contractors are trained in this program and have completed all of Waupaca Foundry, Inc.’s requirements. Objectives of the Waupaca Foundry, Inc. Contractor Program • The major objectives of the Contractor Safety Program: – Inform Contractors and Sub-Contractors of their responsibilities when working on Waupaca Foundry, Inc. property. – Protect employees, visitors, property and the environment from potential hazards. – Comply with all federal and local safety and environmental regulations. Contractor Responsibilities • • • • • Contractors are expected to implement their own Environmental, Health and Safety programs. Prior to starting a project, each contractor is required to review the work site and identify hazards that may occur while performing the job. The contractor shall ensure proper Environmental, Health, and Safety precautions are followed in accordance with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) and the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). The contractor shall ensure individuals working at the site are trained and are aware of potential hazards. Contractors shall also ensure these individuals are provided with proper safety equipment to prevent incidental injury in accordance with OSHA’s CFR. The contractor shall ensure all personnel follow the guidelines of OSHA, EPA and Waupaca Foundry, Inc.’s policies, in addition to any guidelines of the jurisdiction(s) in which the operations will be performed. Waupaca Foundry, Inc. EHS Staff • Each WF location is staffed with Environmental, Health and Safety personnel. This includes Environmental and Safety managers, Behavior Based Safety leaders, and Occupational Health Nurses. • Corporate Staff for the oversight of EHS are also in place. Waupaca Foundry, Inc. EHS Staff OSHA – Temporary Workers : “Both HOST and Staffing Agency are responsible for providing and maintaining a safe work environment” • It is a fundamental principle that temporary workers are entitled to the same protections under the OSH Act as all other covered workers. • The staffing agency and host employer must work together to ensure that OSH Act requirements are fully met and that the temporary worker is provided a safe workplace. https://www.osha.gov/pls/oshaweb/owadisp.show_document?p_table=NEWS_RELEASES&p_id=26586 OHSAS 18001.2007 • OHSAS 18001 is an Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series for Health and Safety Management Systems. • OHSAS 18001 is intended to help organizations identify and control Occupational Health and Safety risks. It was developed in response to a widespread demand for a recognized standard to be used for system assessment. • All Waupaca Foundry, Inc. sites have been certified in the OSHAS 18001.2007 assessment. OHSAS 18001 Risk Management Hierarchy After determining a Job Risk – the following Hierarchy shall be used: 1. Elimination of the hazard. 2. Substitution to eliminate or reduce the hazard. Examples of substitution may be using water based solvents, vacuuming material vs. blowing with air; electric powered vs. gas powered fork trucks. 3. Engineering Controls Examples of Engineering Controls: Machine guarding, Noise reduction baffles or enclosures, ventilation, and ergonomic tools. 4. Administrative Controls Exampled of Administrative Controls: Documented work procedures, training, safety signs, limitation of employee exposure, job rotation and scheduling, and temporary barriers. 5. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) PPE should be used as the last option. Although some protection is given, the hazard remains right next to the person. The Higher the level of Hazard Control used, the more distance is placed between the hazard and the person affected! Environmental, Health and Safety Policy: Waupaca Foundry, Inc. uses the acronym “CAST” C – Commitment to Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) excellence through compliance with EHS regulations and other requirements. A – Always strive for continuous improvement and prevention of incidents, injuries, and pollution. S – Set and review EHS Objectives and Targets. T- Train employees on their EHS responsibilities.

Contractors must be aware of the “Impact” their services may have on the Environment. The recognized “Significant Impact” of WF Contractors is their potential to cause Chemical and or Petroleum spills which may contaminate the air, soil and/or water. ISO 14001 The ISO 14001 Certification is awarded by a 3rd party auditing company. The auditors will ask three main questions of any contractor representatives they see: 1. Are you aware of Waupaca Foundry, Inc.’s Environmental Policy and, in general, what does it say? 2. Are you aware of any significant aspects for your area? 3. What do you do in the case of a spill/fire? Pocket cards with this information have been developed for your use and are available at the guardhouse check-in. 14001 - 18001: Consequences of Program Departure Examples of Consequences: • A consequence may be the contamination of the air, the soil, or water from spills and neglected clean up of spills. – A consequence would also be the failure of Waupaca Foundry, Inc. to maintain the elements of our Environmental, Health and Safety Policy. • These consequences could result in the loss of our 14001 and/or 18001 certification. • Gross departure will affect a contractors employment status with Waupaca Foundry, Inc. Environmental Safety Management of Hazardous Substances and Empty Containers • Remove all chemical wastes/residues from Waupaca Foundry, Inc. property when the work is complete. • If any onsite storage of chemicals is necessary, provide an appropriate storage location with secondary containment. • Practice good housekeeping with all materials brought on site. • Special precautions should be in place when using chemicals near drains or the sewer. • Contractors shall be aware of the Waupaca Foundry, Inc. spill response plan. Contact the Emergency Response Team to clean up a spill. Bulk Liquid Loading and Unloading Contractors responsible for delivering bulk liquids must adhere to the following during delivery/pick up service: Turn off all unnecessary engines. Chock wheels prior to loading or unloading. Check the receiving tank level by visual gauge or other means to determine quantity of liquid needed. Tanks must be supervised during pumping activity. Confirm hoses are disengaged before driving away. Be prepared to contact ERT for response to non-routine spills as needed. Environmental Safety Air and/or Water Emissions • Any project resulting in the discharge of significant hazardous air emissions or wastewater discharges must gain preapproval by the Environmental Dept. PRIOR to initiation of the project. It is the responsibility of the contractor to provide this notification to the Plant’s Environmental Engineer. • Any Contracting Company working with CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) must provide Technician Certification for all on-site technicians. Environmental Safety Housekeeping • Clean up of trash and debris; dispose of it properly. • Remove ALL chemical containers (drums, pails) from Waupaca Foundry, Inc. property. – Materials should NOT be put in Waupaca Foundry, Inc. trash receptacles. • Clean up of BULK materials (cement, sand) to prevent eventual storm water runoff and vehicle tracking. • Control of chemicals and oil-laden equipment to prevent weather exposure.

Waupaca Foundry, Inc. is tearing down part of the office complex and rebuilding a larger office space. You have been contracted to help with a portion of this project. • Some jobs that are being completed; – – – – – – – – – Demolition Excavation Electrical Landscape Concrete Wall/Siding Mechanical Plumbing Roofing • Fill out the pre-job meeting form as if you were completing one of the jobs above. Answer the questions to the best of your knowledge. ***This is a fictitious scenario; we aren’t looking for correct answers, merely knowledge of how to fill out the form and requirements. • Training • • Contractors are responsible for the proper training of their employees in such areas as fire, explosion, chemicals, uncontrolled energy, confined spaces, fall protection and any other hazards related to their work. In certain circumstances, Waupaca Foundry, Inc. will require proof of Contractor employee training. It is not the responsibility of, nor will Waupaca Foundry, Inc. provide any detailed training to a Contractor Employee. Behavior Based Safety • BBS Includes observation and feedback of employee’s behaviors and performance with regard to daily safety. • Contractor employees may be observed and should expect this as well of safety performance feedback. • All Waupaca Foundry, Inc. employees are encouraged to report unsafe behavior. • In addition to BBS, contractors also may be included in compliance inspections. • Contractors that are found to be non-compliant will be expected to provide a written corrective action in a timely manner. BBS Observation Procedure • • • • • • Go to the work being performed Observe Openly Extend your Greeting Observe the situation/work Record all behaviors observed Give feedback *Communication is the KEY to the observation process! • Employees will talk to you about what they observed. – What actions were “safe” and which were at “risk” • Utilize this time for questions and improvements. Reporting of All Incidents • All Injuries sustained on the job site, must be reported immediately to the Waupaca Foundry, Inc. Health Services or Safety department. • All incidents, including near miss and property damage, must be investigated and a copy of the investigation kept on file with Waupaca Foundry, Inc. • Preservation of equipment, vehicles, etc. involved in an incident is required until investigation is complete. Goes into effect January 1, 2015 Under the revised rule, employers will be required to notify OSHA of • • • • work-related fatalities within eight hours, and Any work-related in-patient hospitalizations, Any amputations or Any losses of an eye within 24 hours. Previously, OSHA's regulations required an employer to report only work-related fatalities and in-patient hospitalizations of three or more employees. Reporting single hospitalizations, amputations or loss of an eye was not required under the previous rule Bloodborne Pathogens • Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP) are micro organisms that are carried in the blood and may cause disease in humans. • There are many different BBP’s, but the two most significant are HIV and Hepatitis B (HBV). Prevention: The key to avoid being infected is to protect yourself! Treat ALL body fluids as if they are contaminated. DO NOT touch or clean up blood. • All Waupaca Foundry, Inc. nurses and medical responders have specific training in the proper clean up and disposal of blood spills. • If you are incidentally exposed to blood or other potentially infected material, wash the areas immediately and contact Health Services. Concept Review Name reasons why a pre-job meeting would be necessary. A. Confined Space C. Fall Protection Req. B. Crane Operation D. All the Above & More Whose responsibility is it to train contracted employees? A. Contractor’s C. Waupaca Foundry’s B. Themselves D. Supervisor Who should you report injuries or incidents to? A. Supervisor C. No one B. Health Services or Safety Dept. D. Friend Confined Space Entry A confined space, generally speaking, is one in which an individual’s ability to move about or exit is limited or restricted. Potential risks include oxygen deficiency, toxic atmosphere, entrapment, engulfment, fire or other physical danger. Some confined spaces are obvious, but others may not be apparent. It is important for all workers to be aware of what confined spaces are and the potential hazards they represent. Confined spaces are deadly. It is imperative that contracted employees are aware that only those individuals having received specialized training are permitted to enter a confined space regardless of circumstances. Confined Space Entry Confined Space – A confined space is one that: • Limited means for entry and exit (*note - this may be more than one entry and/or exit point) Limited means you cannot easily walk in and walk out, and rescue in an emergency would be difficult, AND • Not meant for continuous human occupancy - when the area was engineered, consideration was not given to human occupancy - for lighting, ventilation, heat, etc., AND • Large enough to enter and perform work – Entry is considered to have occurred as soon as any part of the entrant’s body breaks the plane of an opening into the space. Over 200 Confined Spaces have been identified at Waupaca Foundry, Inc. Examples of Confined Spaces at Waupaca Foundry, Inc. include: Sand Silo’s, Furnace, Furnace Pit, Cupola, Bag Houses, Duct Work, Melt Recouperator, Hoppers, Mullors, Casting Cleaning Blast Machines, etc.
