❖ Medical Emergency:

will provide a sufficient number of first aiders, Nurse, clinic and ambulance
to deal with injuries at the workplace.

12/33
 1. Medical emergency to be reported by calling the emergency
telephone number displayed at work locations.
2. Emergency Response Team (ERT) to be activated at the incident
location.

❖ Site Evacuation:

Depending on the nature of the emergency the On-Scene Commander

in consultation with the Site H&S Manager may decide to evacuate
personnel from the workplace to the nearest assembly point.

Again, the decision to either activate a full site wide evacuation or a

partial evacuation depends on the nature and scale of the emergency
situation.

Extreme Winds
Routine precautions in the event of exceptionally high winds are to.
● Stop all external lifting and materials handling operations.
● Reduce outside work to essential tasks.
● Because of design tolerances it is most unlikely that extreme wind-
speeds would result in an emergency condition.
● When rain creates a hazard to craftsmen due to slippery ground,
muddy and flooded work environment, unstable ground and poor
visibility, work shall be stopped and all equipment must be secured.

❖ Heat Stress Prevention & Control:

Heat stress may occur any time that work is being performed at
elevated temperatures or when protective clothing is worn. The stresses
of heat on the body manifest themselves in 5 common ailments:
● Heat exhaustion
● Heat cramps
● Heat stroke
● Heat syncope, and
● Heat rash.

Temperatures, expected to be found in the workplace, that are based

upon environmental factors such as air temperature, relative humidity,
air velocity, and thermal radiation.

In the basis of temperatures measured, a ratio of work time versus rest

periods, with work periods decreasing while rest periods increase as

13/33
 temperature rises; a medical monitoring program for those people
exposed to heat stress and those highly susceptible to heat stress (the
obese, un acclimatized workers, workers with cardio circulatory
diseases, and employees who may be taking medications; Following
arrangemnts shall be made available.

the release. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment to
manage the release.
2. Notify your supervisor/emergency team; who shall notify the
Environmental Officer. Emergency services shall be notified as
necessary.
3. Assess safety risk to humans; Only attempt containment and

near the spill area. Evacuate personnel and safe assembly areas if
they are at risk. Secure the area and establish perimeter control
at a safe distance from the spill.
5. Stop source of spill; When it can be performed safely, stop the
source of spill. Spill Kit or control equipment shall be available
and accessible next to storage and waste areas, refueling areas,
maintenance areas and bulk fuel storage areas.
6. Contain spill; Liquid spills - If the spill is liquid, its path will be
blocked or diverted and then soaked up using an absorbent
material.
7. Clean up; No spills shall be rinsed away. Contaminated soils and
clean-up materials from spills shall be handled properly using
personal protective equipment, stored in a suitable container that
is then labelled and stored in the appropriate location for
subsequent disposal. Any stockpiles of remnant contaminated
