Site Safety and Health Plan <br />Stockton Field Maintenance Shop #24 <br />8020 Airport Way, Stockton, CA <br /> <br />4.2 HAZARD ANALYSIS AND DECISION LOGIC <br />The first step in the hazard analysis process is to break the operations down into specific tasks. <br />Hazards associated with activities are then identified. Assessment or evaluation of these <br />hazards helps to determine the risk(s) posed by tasks to on-site or off-site personnel. Proper <br />controls designed to eliminate or minimize the risks are then selected and implemented. A flow <br />diagram of the hazard analysis process is shown in Table 4-2. <br />The activities in this section of the SSHP are general in nature. It will be the responsibility of the <br />SSHO, working with the PM, to assess specific work tasks on a daily basis, evaluate the <br />associated hazards and to implement proper controls. <br /> <br />4.3 EVALUATION AND CONTROLS <br />Evaluation of health and safety hazards at each site will be an ongoing process. Safety hazards <br />will be assessed based on such factors as regulatory requirements, severity, or hazard <br />outcome, frequency of exposure, proximity to the hazard and mitigating circumstances. These <br />evaluations for specific tasks will be conducted during pre-job planning and site inspections_ <br />Health hazards which may cause occupational illness will be evaluated through monitoring of <br />airborne concentrations, medical surveillance, assessment of the potential for skin contact, <br />effects due to skin absorption, and through measurement of environmental physical hazards <br />including noise, heat and cold. <br />Control methods are generally classified as administrative (e.g., training and work/rest <br />regimens); work practice/engineering (e.g., work rules, contamination control and <br />decontamination procedures); and PPE (e.g., respirators, chemical protective clothing, safety <br />glasses, gloves and footwear). <br />Star Resources Corp 15
