As with all field work sites,caution will be exercised to prevent slips on rain slick surfaces, stepping on sharp objects, etc. Work will not be performed on elevated platforms without fall protection. 2.2.5.1 Hand Auguring • Avoid putting pressure on the palms of your hands; use a good grip to spread the pressure over the entire hand. • Take frequent stretch breaks to stretch and relax your back, arms and hands. 3.0 ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The following section describes the roles and responsibilities of the personnel involved with the project.
