<br />health reporting system, so that reports are received in a timely and systematic manner. See the Safety and Health
<br />Reporting section of this program.
<br />To ensure employee compliance with safe work practices, we've developed the following recognition methods to motivate
<br />employees to put our safety rules and work procedures into practice: group recognition.
<br />Our company also holds employees accountable if they violate safety and health rules or safe work practices. Our
<br />disciplinary procedures are as follows: see disciplinary policy
<br />A copy of Cal/OSHA's Injury and Illness Prevention Program and Heat Illness Prevention regulations, and other information
<br />is accessible to all employees a copy is posted on the bulletin boards. However, this information does not include
<br />confidential or private information that is of a personal nature, such as medical records. While we provide opportunities for
<br />employee participation, we also comply with the National tabor Relations Act.
<br />Safety and Health Reporting
<br />Our safety and health reporting system ensures that any and all levels of management receives and promptly responds to
<br />the report, evaluates the report to determine whether an injury or illness has occurred, and takes corrective action as
<br />Cal/OSHA regulations require and where appropriate. When determining whether an employee who has experienced signs
<br />or symptoms of an injury or illness actually has an injury or illness, we have the employee evaluated, at no cost to the
<br />employee, by: Health Services Department of participating medical provider.
<br />We use the following method for reporting job -related injuries, illnesses, fatalities, incidents, and hazards: verbal and
<br />written notifications. All employee reports are taken seriously by the company. If an injury, illness, fatality, incident, or
<br />hazard has occurred, we will identify, assess, and control the hazard(s).
<br />Hazard Identification and Assessment
<br />Before existing and potential hazards can be prevented and controlled, they must be identified and assessed. It is critical
<br />that this be done for the entire workplace. The Safety Manger and Health Services review existing safety and health records
<br />monthly.
<br />All CBEC employees are required to inspect for hazards performs hazard inspections daily or before each use. This
<br />person/team has a thorough knowledge of the facility and the regulations that apply. Inspections are conducted as follows:
<br />visual for most but could require special inspections.
<br />Project Manager, Supervisor, and/or Safety Manager identifies and evaluates hazards before we change procedures, or
<br />change design, or purchase equipment, materials, or processes. This is called proactive safety, and the concept
<br />encompasses facilities, hardware, equipment, tooling, materials, layout and configuration, energy controls, environmental
<br />concerns, and products.
<br />In addition, Safety Manager along with field support will investigate each work -related death, serious injury or illness, or
<br />incident (near -miss) having the potential to cause death or serious physical harm.
<br />The supervisor is responsible for determining what repairs or corrections need to be made, and assigning responsibility to
<br />get them done. Once corrected, all hazards are reassessed.
<br />Hazard Prevention and Control
<br />Once hazards are identified and assessed, they must be eliminated or controlled. Job hazard controls are engineering,
<br />administrative, and/or work practice controls used to eliminate or materially reduce hazards. While engineering controls,
<br />where feasible, are the preferred method, administrative and work practice controls also may be important in addressing
<br />hazards. Personal protective equipment (PPE) may also be used to supplement engineering, work practice, and
<br />administrative controls, but may only be used alone where other controls are not feasible.
