8.4.3 Program Review The medical program is reviewed annually to ensure its effectiveness. The Corporate Health and Safety Manager in coordination with the Human Resources Director is responsible for this review. At minimum, this review consists of: • Review of accident and injury records and medical records to determine whether the causes of accidents and illness were promptly investigated and whether corrective measures were taken wherever possible; • Evaluation of the appropriateness of required medical tests based on Site exposures; and • Review of emergency treatment procedures and emergency contacts list to ensure they were Site-specific, effective, and current. 8.5 Personnel Protection Site safety and health hazards are eliminated or reduced to the greatest extent possible through engineering controls and work practices. Where hazards are still present, a combination of engineering controls, work practices and PPE are used to protect employees. Appropriate PPE shall be worn by Site personnel when there is a potential exposure to chemical, biological or physical hazards (e.g., falling objects, flying particles, sharp edges, electricity and noise), as determined by the SHSO and the JSAs. The level of personal protection, type and kind of equipment selected will depend on the hazardous conditions and in some cases cost, availability, compatibility with other equipment, and performance. An accurate assessment of all these factors will be made before work can be safely executed. Roux maintains a comprehensive written PPE program that addresses proper PPE selection, use, maintenance, storage,fit and inspection. Roux's PPE program can be found within Appendix E. PPE to be used at the Site will meet the appropriate American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standards and the following Cal/OSHA standards for minimum PPE requirements. The minimum level of PPE for entry onto the Site is Level D. The following equipment shall be worn: • Work uniform (long pants, sleeved shirt); • Hard hat; • Steel or composite toe work boots (must comply with American Society for Testing and Materials [ASTM]) F 2412-05, Standard Test Methods for Foot Protection and ASTM F 2413-05, Standard Specification for Performance Requirements for Foot Protection); • Safety glasses (must comply with one of the following ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2010, ANSI Z87.1-2003, ANSI Z87.1-2003); • Boot covers (as needed); • Hearing protection (as needed); • High visibility clothing (shirt/vest); and • Hand protection (e.g., minimum cut resistance meeting ANSI 105-2000 Level 2). Note that jewelry shall be removed or appropriately secured to prevent it from becoming caught in rotating equipment or unexpectedly snagged on a fixed object. (e.g., wrist watches, bracelets, rings, chains and necklaces, open earrings). Do not wear loose clothing and all shoulder-length hair should be tied back. 5175.0001S102/HSP Site-Specific Health and Safety Plan I ROUX 127
