16.4.1 Life-Threatening and/or Otherwise Serious Incident

If a life-threatening incident occurs, those persons recognizing the situation should do whatever actions that are within their capabilities to reduce the threat and then the Contractor CSO shall be contacted. The Contractor CSO shall immediately notify the Emergency Medical Services (EMS-911) and implement emergency action procedures to have someone meet and guide EMS to the incident location. The Contractor shall be notified of the incident as early as possible.

The Contractor CSO shall be kept apprised of the situation and the location of the victim(s).

As the Contractor CSO proceeds to the accident scene, communications channels shall be opened and kept on standby until the Contractor CSO has surveyed the scene and performed a primary survey of the victim.

The Contractor CSO shall provide emergency action guidance consistent with the injury and shall relay the appropriate information to the site person meeting the EMS. Depending on the nature of the injury and the location at which the injury occurred, the Contractor CSO shall determine whether the person can be moved or whether the EMS team will need to come into the work area to assist the victim. Should the victim be injured in the EZ, all appropriate life-saving methods shall be exercised in that area before attempting decontamination of the victim.
