Health and Safety Plan, June 2005

NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document

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

The Contractor SSM 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 SSM 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 Exclusion Zone, all appropriate life-saving methods shall be exercised in that area before attempting decontamination of the victim. The extent of emergency decontamination performed shall depend on the severity of the injury or illness and the nature of the contamination. If the emergency is such that emergency decontamination cannot be performed safely, the victim shall be given necessary first-aid treatment and wrapped in a blanket prior to transportation by EMS. If heat stress is a factor in a victim's injury/illness, all protective clothing shall be removed from the victim immediately.

Non-Life-Threatening Incident

Should it be determined that no threat to life is present, a co-worker will assist the injured person and contact the Contractor SSM as soon as reasonably possible. Should the victim be injured in the Exclusion Zone, a rapid decontamination consisting of Tyvek, glove and respirator removal shall be performed in the Contamination Reduction Zone prior to initiation of medical assistance. For all non-life-threatening injuries, all medical assistance shall be provided in the Support Zone to reduce the spread of contamination to medical personnel or equipment.

2.13.5 Bloodborne Pathogens

When an emergency occurs that involves the potential for contact with bodily fluids, personnel shall use procedures and PPE that minimize the potential for exposure.

All personnel who provided direct support to an injured person shall participate in a post- incident exposure review during which their role in the event and the potential for contact with bodily fluids shall be evaluated. The information relating to exposure shall be documented for each individual. The procedures for the post-exposure consultation identified in the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030) shall be followed.

All personnel on-site shall receive awareness training concerning Bloodborne Pathogens (BBP) and the procedures to be followed to respond to emergencies that occur on-site. This awareness training shall be provided by each Subcontractor prior to the initiation of work activities and when new employees are introduced to the Site. In addition, each Subcontractor must have a BBP plan.
