CM0 Personal Protective Equipment Management Program 2.15 manufacturers specify which repairs, if performed by the end-user,will void the product warranty.Therefore, Roux employees are not authorized to perform such maintenance or repairs. 3.2.1.3 PPE Storage Certain equipment failures can be directly attributed to improper storage. The OHSM or Equipment Manager (or another designated person) is responsible for implementing procedures for appropriate PPE storage, for equipment that is centrally stored. Both central storage and dedicated PPE provided to employees should be stored using the following: • Store goggles and safety glasses in protective cases. • Store PPE (such as helmets, boots, etc.) in clean, dust-proof containers or bags out of direct sunlight. • PPE should ideally be stored under climate-controlled conditions. PPE, stocked gear bags, and/or go-kits should not be stored in hot, cold, or other extreme environmental conditions, and they should not be stored in vehicles (government-owned or rentals)for even short periods of time. Do not store helmets on the rear window shelf of a vehicle. • Store different kinds of clothing and gloves separately to prevent errors in selection. • Hang or fold protective clothing in accordance with manufacturers' recommendations. • Never store contaminated PPE near new protective clothing or street clothing. Potentially contaminated, reusable clothing must be stored (usually bagged) away from new PPE in a well- ventilated area with good airflow around each item until the garment is decontaminated or disposed. • See Roux's Respiratory Protection Management Program for detailed respirator storage procedures. 3.3 Fitting, Donning, and Doffing PPE Roux shall provide appropriately sized PPE for Roux employees. Improper fitting such as tight-fitting garments, can tear, especially at the knees, crotch, shoulders, back, and elbows due to movement. Protective clothing that is too large can easily snag and/or limit a user's dexterity.The Roux PM shall ensure site/project-specific PPE is kept in a sufficient stock of appropriately sized PPE (e.g., Level C ensembles). The OHSM, Equipment Manager, and/or their designee shall maintain a sufficient stock of appropriately sized PPE in central storage locations. The Site Supervisor(SS)/Site Health and Safety Officer(SHSO)is responsible for ensuring that site-specific procedures for donning and doffing PPE are incorporated into site-specific HASPS. Donning and doffing procedures may differ depending on the type of PPE and clothing (e.g., Level D, Modified Level D, Level C) utilized. Site-specific conditions may warrant adjustments to such procedures. Consult the CHSD for additional information. Roux's Site Control & Decontamination Management Program can be referenced for the development of such procedures, which provide additional information on doffing and decontamination procedures related to Level A-D work. Site-specific donning and doffing procedures should include using an assistant where necessary. Donning and doffing certain types of PPE without assistance could risk failure or damage. Care must be taken to prevent the spread of contaminants on the PPE. Decontamination procedures should limit the potential for cross-contamination and may include gross decontamination of outer boots, gloves,and suits as necessary to prevent contaminants from tracking into the contamination reduction zone (CRZ) and clean zone(s). 03/2025 Corporate Health and Safety Management Program I ROUX 13
