NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document

• • Eliminate unsafe conditions. Efforts shall be initiated and implemented throughout the project to identify conditions that can contribute to an accident, and to remove exposure to these conditions. Each Subcontractor Safety Officer shall audit the work area prior to each shift to identify and correct any unsafe conditions.

• Reduce unsafe acts. Personnel shall make a conscious effort to work safely. A high degree of safety awareness shall be maintained so that safety factors are an integral part of each task. Daily safety briefings shall be designed to heighten general safety awareness and will be tailored to the individual audiences and tasks each day.

• Inspect frequently. Regular safety inspections of the work site, material, equipment, and operations by qualified persons (i.e., Contractor SSM) shall be performed to ensure early detection of unsafe conditions. Safety and health deficiencies shall be corrected as soon as possible, or site activities shall be suspended. All inspections shall be documented and the records retained by the Subcontractor for, at a minimum, the duration of the project. Copies of the inspection reports shall be provided to the Contractor SSM or Contractor Project Manager upon request,
