10.0 REPORTING AND INVESTIGATION OF ACCIDENTS / INCEDENTS:

10.1 MAJOR ACCIDENTS:

Class - I Accident. (Major Reportable)

Involving Death / Serious Injury / Major Fire or Property Damage.

10.2 NON-MAJOR ACCIDENTS:

Class -II Accidents. (Reportable)

These types of injuries are not included in the list of major injuries But involve an absence from
work for more than three days, Excluding the day of accident. They are generally temped as "Three
Day Reportable"

10.3 MINOR" ACCIDENTS - CLASS - III ACCIDENTS (L.T.A.):

An accident resulting in an absence from work for up to 3 days or less, excluding the day of
accident is known as "lost Time Accident". These lost days are NOT to be included in the Accident
statistical reports. But will be useful for internal information.

10.4 NON - LOST TIME INJURIES (FIRST AID CASES):

 These are the types of injuries where the injured persons are discharged after the First-Aid
Treatments (No lost workday).

10.5 DANGEROUS OCCURENCES INEAR ACCIDENTS:

Dangerous Occurrences, which are often termed as Near Accident or Near Misses, are those
occurrences where an accident or loss had somehow been averted but which had enough potential
to have caused one.

10.6 ACCIDENT / INCIDENT INVESTIGATION:

All accidents / incidents. & Dangerous occurrences must be reported to the Head Office
immediately. Section and Safety Engineer / Officer shall have the primary responsibility of
reporting these, although nobody is exempted from the obligations. Initial findings in writing are to
follow soon after but not later than twenty-four hours. The area in question should not be disturbed
in any way until the accident / incident case has been investigated. Serious disciplinary action shall
be taken against all those who do not report accidents or try to suppress or distort the case.

The findings will be reported to the Project Manager and the senior staff as appropriate so that
necessary remedial actions may be advised and relevant lessons learnt so as to prevent recurrences.

10.7 ACCIDENT STATISTICS:

Stonewood Company believes that a well compiled accident database will indicate where The

problems lie and identify the trends, which are essential components of the safety upkeep. We shall

direct our efforts to the prevention of accidents on the basis of the statistical Data collected and

compiled by the Head Office and is projected in the form of Accident Frequency Rate AFR.

A.F.R. = No. of Accidents x 1 00.000/ Total Man - Hours worked.

Accidents Statistics will cover at Least the following aspects:

(A) The total number of Accidents / Incidents / Dangerous occurrences Every month.

(B) The nature and cause of each individual accident.

(C) The seriousness of each accident (i.e. Minor / Serious / Major)

(D) Determine the Accident Frequency Rates (A.F.R.)

(E) Compile the yearly Accident Statistics basing on the monthly figures and project those bar / Pie

Charts for easy recognition.

 The computed and classified results of the accident statistics should be discussed in the Safety
Committee Review Meeting for the sake of identifying problem areas and subsequently devising
remedial actions and possible proactive safety measures to prevent the resilience of similar
accidents in the future. The safety review meeting shall then help allocate and coordinate resources
for such remedial and preventive actions.

10.8 RECORDS:
All records, be it standard or accident related will be maintained on site. Copies of important ones
shall be sent for filing to the Head Office.

11.0 SAFETY RESPONSIBILITY:

The prime responsibility for the safe of a work place rests with the immediate supervisor or the
Foreman for that area. The relevant Foreman and the Section Engineer will therefore inspect all
work areas under his control including those of Subcontractors. Random samples of work areas
shall be inspected by the Project Manager and the Construction Manager.

Safety personnel will also routinely inspect all the work areas, advice remedial actions and
routinely report their observations to the Project Manager in writing, always saving a copy for the
safety folder. They will also ensure that all necessary remedial actions are taken within a
reasonable time period.

12.0 SAFETY AUDITS:

The Policy of Auditing will be followed and will be conducted every six months for the following
purposes:
(A) To make a comprehensive evaluation of the safety performance of the sites or activities.

(B) To obtain a trend of site accidents for analysis and policy making.
(C) To review and comment on the effectiveness of the safety policy.

The "Audit Team" shall be composed of the relative member of Head Office in consultation with
the Site Safety Engineer and / or Officer.

The Audit reports will then be compiled and finally issued to the Project Manager who will
instigate any necessary action in respect of the recommendation made by the Audit Team. Audits
will also allow traceability to assess judgment and Safety perception of the auditors.

13.0 SAFETY AWARDS:

 People at all important site, starting from the level of Section Engineers down to the workforce
when they demonstrate positive safety attitude and adhere to the safety plan. However, NIL
accident report from site for that month shall be a pre-requisite for the award.

14.0 CONTINGENCY ARRANGEMENTS:

All activities shall display instructions on Emergency procedures in the site office and at
conspicuous locations within the site or activity.
A list of contact telephone numbers shall be made available on the site offices where site

management and the Safety team, etc. can be contacted.

"Muster / Assembly Point".
(b) The site Firs-Aider shall render First-aid to the injured at the scene without delay and
