I have searched the ILO has set code of practice regarding worker responsibilities and more
about the workplace follow the ISO, OSHA, NFPA Standards as well. And I have gone through
the ARAMCO GI ( General Instruction) And Saudi Aramco construction safety manual
studiously.

ILO C155: Occupational safety and health convention 1981.


Outline how the risk assessment was ILO R164: OSH recommendation 1988.
carried out this should include: ILO C167: S&H in construction 1988.
 sources of information consulted; ILO R175: S&H In Construction 1988.
ILO C148: Working environment, Noise, vibration and air pollution convention 1977.
 who you spoke to; and
ILO C127: Maximum weight (Manual handling) convention 1967.
 how you identified: OSHA 3150: Revised 2002 safety standard for scaffold.
- the hazards; OSHA: 29CFR 1926, 500, 501, 502 & 503 Fall projection standard.
- what is already being done; and ISO7010: Standard for safety signs.
- any additional controls/actions NFPA 51B: Standard for fire prevention during hot work, welding, Cutting etc.
that may be required.
After exploring the source of information, I decided to visit the site and met with site workers,
foremen, Supervisors, engineers and discussed with them about their activities. They provided
some technical information which I did not observe in the visual inspection.
Also I deeply study the previous accident and incident reports and check the root cause of the
accident & incident.
