• Identifying hazards and risks, eliminate or control them to a level using Suitable Risk
Reduction Measures which can be demonstrated as being as low as is reasonably
practicable, in the following order of preference;
i. Eliminate the risk by removing the hazard – ‘engineer out’ the problems at source.
ii. Reduce the risk by substitution of a less hazardous process, actively or substance.
iii. Isolate (protect everyone) by effective engineering controls such as enclosing the
hazard, removing the person from the hazard or deducing the person’s exposure time to
the hazard.
iv. Install protective devices such as guards, emergency stops and trip switches etc.
v. Enforce p e r m i t -to-work system, s p e c i a l r u l e s a n d p r o c e d u r e s to
c l o s e l y control hazard(s).

In a systematic approach, it shall be implemented and reviewed by experienced competent personnel,
using their engineering and operational knowledge and best judgement to identify and rank the risk associated
with each activity.
The Job Safety Analysis provides a basic tool for all line Managers and Supervisors for the identification of the
hazards connected to the operations as well as putting controls in place. Job Safety Analysis is always done

Analysis identifies high-level hazards, a full Risk Assessment meeting is called and completed by the competent
personnel involved.
Management, control & use of explosives and hazardous substances/chemicals shall comply with all
applicable Nigerian safety requirements, supporting HSE standards, policies which set out principles of

in its areas of operations and as such has put in place plans and resources to ensure swift and efficient
response to any such emergency and minimize any consequential losses in line with the Emergency
Procedure, (GP-ABALAS-HSE-011-E).
The objective of the Emergency Procedure is to ensure that any emergency affecting the place of
operational activities, is dealt with in an efficient and professional manner so that the safety of personnel is not
comprised in any way, the environmental pollution risks are prevented or minimized and that all other losses
which may arise from emergencies are prevented or minimized.
Emergency response drills shall be planned for, documented and implemented at least once per quarter at site.
Report of drills and learning point shall be documented and communicated to the HSE department and the

• No of Spills reported.
• Environmental Issues.
The above-mentioned Trailing and Leading Performance Indicators shall be calculated (using Total Man
hours worked) on monthly basis and forwarded to COMPANY and Corporate office.
The report shall also contain the target achieved, the general performance, and any initiatives to be
implemented to improve the performance.
2.9.3.1 PROGRAM
In order to motivate the personnel to achieve the designed target, ABALAS has developed an incentive safety
Program. In the incentive program, identified targets shall be set for every quarter by the team working in
the Project. There are three levels of targets to be achieved. The targets are assigned to the team and all
personnel working in the relevant team on a routine basis are due for the award whenever the targets are
achieved. These will be tied in to the leading indicators during the Project.
Disciplinary measures and Administrative sanctions taken against the above mentioned violations and
offences depend on the severity of the violation and the strictness of the Project Administrative procedures as well

will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including their INSTANT DISMISSAL from the Project.
Accidents, Incidents and Near misses reported shall be classified as contained in the
Accident, Incident and Near Miss Management System Work Instruction.
In the event of serious injuries, the ABALAS General Managers, Base Manager, Project HSE Manager
and the Project Manager shall carry out an investigation. Site personnel (i.e. safety Supervisor), and
Construction Manager will also be involved in the investigation process. For major incidents, COMPANY
Representative shall also be included in the Joint Investigation process. The first verbal report will be followed
