HSE INSPECTION INFORMATION

CONSULTANT Fitchner CONTRACT NO. N 3968
TITLE OF CONTRACT New 400 kV Grid Station at Qidfa
LOCATION Qidfa
INSPECTED BY Paul Roberts INSPECTION REF. PAR/001/07

Please Note: The inspection is undertaken over the items listed in the sections below. Every effort was made to ascertain compliance but not all
areas were applicable at the time of inspection or available due to constraints. Therefore, although comprehensive, the inspection is not a
guarantee of 100% compliance to HSE standards or regulations.

SUMMARY
Upon first entering the site, the site looked tidy and busy with no immediate housekeeping issues. The gateman just let me enter the site without
any challenge though. Walking around the site, it looked and was found to be tidy, PPE was being worn by 99% of the people working. The
scaffolding on the 400 kV GIS room was Scaftaged and appropriate. The workers were using their PPE and generally, compliance was good.

A few items need to be addressed and they are listed below. There is enough HSE staff on the site for this site to be in perfect compliance to the
Toshiba HSE Plan. Toshiba Management must support their Line Management on site in implementing the HSE Plan successfully. HSE Staff
should meet on a regular basis with Line Management to plan for good organized HSE.
