6. SAFETY PLAN

The objective of this document is to set all guidelines in order to draft a Health and Safety Plan for the
construction phase of the Project.

Prior to the commencement of the works, the Health and Safety Manager, with accredited qualification,
experience and skills in H&S matters, will draft the Health and Safety Plan. The Operations Control
Coordinator will review and approve the Plan.

All Contractors, workers and stakeholders will comply with all settings, activities and indications for
the safety plan.

6.1 Risk identification

SOLARPACK will identify all risks and hazards for construction works of the projects. The main
objective is to draft the hazard matrix which will develop all hazards, their origins, severity and safety
measures.

The methodology for identifying and assessing risks associated to construction works is to identify
first all works, set all their hazards and finally assess the probability and the level of impact in order to
set the severity.
MAGNITUDE OF RISK
Probability / Exposure

Low Medium High

1 2 4
Consequences

High 4 4 8 16
Moderate Important Unacceptable
Medium 2 2 4 8
Acceptable Moderate Important
Low 1 1 2 4
Trivial Acceptable Moderate
TYPE DOC: CONS

CODE: CONS-SUP H&S MANAGEMENT PLAN

VERSION: 00 GUIDELINES
PAGE: 12/33

Once all hazards are evaluated, they will be classified. Classification will be done according to their
severity. Severity class will be determine as:

MR Criticality
16 Unacceptable
8 Important
4 Moderate
2 Acceptable
1 Trivial

Finally, preventive and corrective measures for the identified hazard will be established in the hazard
matrix. The nature of the measures and activities is related with the severity of the hazard.

CRITERIA FOR CONTROL MEASURES

Work must not be started or continued until the risk is reduced. Work cannot be started if it is
Unacceptable
not possible to reduce the risk.
Work must not be started until the risk has been reduced. Considerable resources will be
Important needed to control the risk. When the risk corresponds to a job that is being done, the problem
must be remedied in a time shorter than moderate risk.
Improvements must be made to reduce the risk, determining the precise investments. The
measures to reduce risk must be implemented within a certain period. When the moderate risk
Moderate
is associated with harmful consequences, it will require a later action to establish the probability
of damage as a basis to determine the need for improvement of the control measures.
No specific action is urgently required. Periodic checks are required to ensure that the
Acceptable
effectiveness of risk control measures is maintained.
No specific action is urgently required. Possible risk control. Periodic compilations are required
