Hierarchy of Control
All hazards associated with the works shall be controlled to either eliminate or minimize the risk.
The CITISCAPE Management Team shall ensure that the works address hazards and reduce risk in
line with the hierarchy of control principles listed as follows and in the order of effectiveness, as
depicted in figure.
• Elimination – removing the hazard or hazardous working practice from the workplace. This
is the most effective control measure and should always be considered before anything else.
• If elimination is not viable, the risk must be reduced using other measures to be considered
in the following order:
• Substitution – substituting or replacing a hazard or hazardous working practice with a less
hazardous one.
• Isolation – isolating or separating the hazard or hazardous work practice from people
involved in the work or other people at the site
• Engineering Controls – if the hazard cannot be eliminated, substituted or isolated an
engineering control is the following preferred measure. This may include modifications of
tools or equipment.
• Administration – this includes implementing working practices that will reduce the risk, such
as limiting the amount of time that a person is exposed to a particular hazard
• PPE – (personal protective equipment) this should be considered only when other control
measures are not practicable, or to increase protection
The format included in Exhibit-1 shall be the adopted in Risk Assessment procedure.
For the scope of the project works both a General and Fire Risk assessment can be found in Exhibits
2&3
CITISCAPE shall conduct Daily and weekly HSE Inspections. Project Manager, Supervisor, Site

As with all project procedures, the implementation of this Accident Investigation procedure
requires that all the affected persons are suitably trained and briefed to fulfill their duties.
Prior to the implementation of the system on the project site, the processes to be followed have to
be documented and only then, following this, can any required training protocols be established?
The following section outlines the general sequence of activities which will support the process of
effective accident investigation and report preparation.
Following any HSE related incident that occurs on the project, it is the responsibility of site
employees to notify their supervisors who shall, in turn, be responsible to notify the HSE Dept
immediately.
HSE related incidents that are required to be reported to the client by telephone / email.
Contractor shall submit both an incident notification report and an incident investigation report as
soon as is practicable but within a maximum of 24 Hrs to client.
Incidents can incur significant costs, both known and unknown, which have a detrimental effect on
the company’s operations, including but not limited to:
• Recruitment of replacement workers
• Re - training of workers after accidents
• Required Overtime / Work Delays or disruption
• Medical Bills / Sick Pay
• Replacement / Repair of Damaged Equipment
• Loss of employee morale
• Damaged reputation / Loss of future business
• Prosecution / Fines / Legal Bills
• Restrictions / Blacklists from Authorities
• Increased insurance costs
•
Whilst the cost of repeated incidents alone could be considered reason enough, there are multiple
reasons for the completion of a suitable and sufficient incident investigation, however, the
following are the main points for consideration:
Although the size and composition of any incident investigation team may vary based upon the
nature of the incident, each team shall consist of the following:
Page 30 of 79
Ref: CIT.DS.HSEP.23
HEALTH, SAFETY AND Rev.00
ENVIRONMENT PLAN Date: 05.07.2023
• HSE team member, familiar with applicable safety standards and having undergone basic
incident investigation training
• Construction team supervisors, familiar with the construction processes involved.
• Technical consultant, in respect of any plant or equipment (Eg: mechanic, plant supervisor)
• Translator familiar with both English and language of persons involved in incident.

The work undertaken as part of the initial investigation may have a significant impact on the final
investigation and thus should be approached in a slow and methodical manner:
Page 31 of 79
Ref: CIT.DS.HSEP.23
HEALTH, SAFETY AND Rev.00
ENVIRONMENT PLAN Date: 05.07.2023
The required level of detail, depth or length of an incident investigation, including the number and
required skills of the investigation team will be determined on a case-by-case basis. For all
investigations, however, equal focus shall be applied to evidence gathering based on the following
components:
• The Place / Environment
• The People
• Plant / Equipment
• The Process
• Where / when?
• Had it been correctly prepared / established?
• Weather / ground conditions
• Ambient conditions
• Eg: Temperature / Lighting / Ventilation?
• Adequate and appropriate signage installed / visible?
• Had the area been inspected?
• When & by whom?
• Any previously identified issues related to the area?
Page 32 of 79
Ref: CIT.DS.HSEP.23
HEALTH, SAFETY AND Rev.00
ENVIRONMENT PLAN Date: 05.07.2023
For investigations to be deemed suitable and sufficient, they are required to be:
• Proportionate to the incident / levels of risk
• Thorough, systematic and structured
• Carried out with the prevention of recurrence in mind, NOT set out to apportion blame
• Does not jump to conclusions but is based upon facts
• Follows the causal chain all the way up to Management levels
• Provides the basis for the development of effective corrective measures
For any investigation to be deemed suitable and sufficient, due care and attention must be made
to the analysis of evidence gathered. By systematically working through the evidence, a list of the
contributory incident root causes will become clearer.
Page 33 of 79
Ref: CIT.DS.HSEP.23
HEALTH, SAFETY AND Rev.00
ENVIRONMENT PLAN Date: 05.07.2023
The more experienced the investigation team, the easier the process becomes, however, care must
be taken to review and analyze the evidence, in an open minded and impartial manner, so as to not
discount its significance. Only once the evidence has been thoroughly reviewed can the point, or
points of any failure, be made clear and thus conclusions can be drawn.
Following the detailed review of the evidence and root causes becoming clear, recommendations
for corrective actions to be implemented, aimed at the prevention of incident recurrence can be
made.
It is vital that recommendations made, are done so, purely on the basis of improving HSE
performance, either influenced or discounted by constraints of time or budget.
The recommendations shall be included in the draft investigation report, to be discussed in an HSE
Management meeting or Site Safety committee meeting as appropriate.
Once the investigation findings have been reviewed, corrective actions, inclusive of agreed
implementation timescales, the final report will be prepared for submission to the Engineer and
relevant authorities as applicable.
Internal Reporting
Client Submission
For HSE related incidents that are required to be reported and investigation report shall be
submitted to the Engineer for review and comment and provide feedback to Citiscape
• Ensure that all items of Plant, equipment and all substances used in its operations, are
properly used, maintained or handled in a manner so as not to constitute a risk to persons or
the environment.
• Ensure that all employees are informed of the operational and safety standards, practices,
and procedures. To train them in the attitudes, skills and knowledge in order to achieve these
requirements.

HEALTH, SAFETY AND Rev.00
ENVIRONMENT PLAN Date: 05.07.2023
• Communicating information from near miss reporting remains a primary obstacle to the
success of most near miss processes. To create a system to transfer near miss information to
EH&S and employees to increase awareness of the condition or hazard the following must be
ensured:
• Information must travel quickly.
• Information must reach all personnel.
• Information must be accurate and presented in a useful and understandable format.
• When a near miss has occurred the next objective is to determine what action is required to
ensure the near miss could not reoccur.
• Two steps are required in determining the action to be taken:
• In many instances an informal process between a supervisor and employee can determine
actions taken. In cases where root cause is not apparent an investigation team may be
required to determine the root cause and solutions.
It is imperative that a process be in place ensuring that all action items identified are followed until
closure is in place to ensure employees see the benefits of reporting.
Action items should be communicated to all employees to ensure that everyone has a through
understanding of the recommendations. This would prevent miss interpretation or “Not viewed as
important”.
All near miss reports should be collected in a database. Often near misses are collected but rarely
are the information communicated to address underlying safety issues.
The communications means during the construction phase are land line phone, mobile phone and
UHF radio, these means shall be applied for all work locations.
To communicate any HSE related instructions and information to all levels of employees. HSE
bulletin boards shall be provided at each prominent location where usually employees visit regularly
on project site area and all offices.

B.8 COVID 19
Page 56 of 79
Ref: CIT.DS.HSEP.23
HEALTH, SAFETY AND Rev.00
ENVIRONMENT PLAN Date: 05.07.2023
Corona virus disease (COVID-19) is an illness that can affect the lungs and airways. It's caused by a
virus called corona virus. As a type of virus and as a group, corona viruses are common across the
world. The current type, COVID-19, is a new strain of corona virus first identified in Wuhan City,
China in December 2019.
The current understanding about how the COVID-19 virus spreads is largely based on what is known
about similar corona viruses. As COVID-19 is a new disease, there is more to learn about how it
spreads, the severity of illness it causes, and to what extent it may spread globally.
Similar to other types of corona viruses, the incubation period of COVID-19 disease is between 2 to
14 days. This means that if a person remains well 14 days after contact with someone with
confirmed corona virus, they have not been infected.
8.1 Transmission
For the moment the virus is thought to spread mainly from person-to-person who are in close
contact with one another (within about 1 meter). It is furthermore likely that the risk increases the
longer someone has close contact with an infected person.
Respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes containing the virus are
most likely to be the main means of transmission.
There are 2 main routes by which people can spread COVID-19 disease:
• Infection can be spread to people who are nearby or possibly could be inhaled into the lungs;
and
• It is also possible that someone may become infected by touching a surface, object or the
hand of an infected person that has been contaminated with respiratory droplets and then
touching their own mouth, nose, or eyes (i.e. touching door knob or shaking hands then
touching own face). From the 2 main routes of transmission this is not thought to be the main
way the virus spreads
There is currently little evidence that people who are without symptoms are infectious to others.
There is no perceived increase in risk for handling mail, items or packages.
8.2 Symptoms
The following symptoms may develop in the 14 days after exposure to someone who has COVID-19
infection:
• Fever;
• Cough; and
• Difficulty breathing
Generally, these infections can cause more severe symptoms in people with weakened immune
systems (i.e. elderly people, and those with long-term conditions like diabetes, cancer and chronic
lung disease).
8.3 Diagnoses
Page 57 of 79
Ref: CIT.DS.HSEP.23
HEALTH, SAFETY AND Rev.00
ENVIRONMENT PLAN Date: 05.07.2023
A nose swab, carried out by a certified medical institution, can be done as early assessment of the
virus. The nose swab is then analyzed in a laboratory. Result can be readily available within 48 hours.
8.4 Treatment
At present, there is no treatment vaccine available to cure for COVID-19 disease. Instead, the best
treatment for the virus is by providing good nutrition and hospital care to let the patient recover.
This is likely to work for a vast majority of patients.
8.5 Temperature Monitoring of Subcontractor Workers, Staff and Visitors:
The temperature of all Subcontractor workers must be checked every day prior to entering site.
The temperature of all staff and visitors entering site shall be checked by security, regardless of
their status or employer.
The temperature of all staff entering at site shall be checked along with any visitors.
Trained persons shall be available at the offices or security gates to conduct these checks.
Any person showing a temperature of 37.8C or above shall immediately be sent to the site Nurse
for further assessment. On confirmation of symptoms, the patient shall be isolated, provided with
gloves and a mask and referred to a testing centre.
The principles of Social Distancing shall be trained to all workers and staff and shall include
instruction to try to keep 2m distance from other persons wherever possible.
• Working groups shall be minimized to 5 workers and a gap of a minimum of 2m shall be
maintained between each worker.
• Workers break timings shall be split and additional rest areas provided to prevent close
crowding of workers where necessary.
• Workers shall be instructed to keep a safe distance between themselves and others when
eating.
• The number of persons allowed in hoists or lifts at any one time shall be reduced so far as
possible.
• Floor markings shall be marked on the floor in heavily populated areas such as rest areas or
hoist landing areas to remind people of the requirement to stand 2m apart.
• Social Distancing shall be considered in any future Method Statements and Risk Assessments
in order to minimize contact and close working proximity and reduce risk of infection.
Page 58 of 79
Ref: CIT.DS.HSEP.23
HEALTH, SAFETY AND Rev.00
ENVIRONMENT PLAN Date: 05.07.2023
• If possible, appropriate latrine facilities should be made available inside the compound and
be kept cleaned. In any case, workers should be encouraged to wash their hands before and
after using the latrines;
• Dedicated eating, break and prayer areas should be identified on site and access should be
staggered to reduce risk of congestion. Workers should keep physical distance while eating,
praying and having a break;
• Provide safe drinking water dispensers and provide a personal drinking bottle to each
individual;
• All solid waste (excluding construction materials) should be put immediately in closed bins or
closed bags and not left for someone else to clear up;
• Separate and collect all solid waste that could serve as transmission vector. To avoid contact
with waste bags, use double plastic bags (for instance when removing a filled waste bag,
cover tightly and wrap with a second plastic bag).
8.8 Disinfection
Preferably, every worker should be provided with a basic set of tools needed for the tasks they are
assigned to. Using of the same tool by multiple workers should be avoided. If tools are shared or
stored for later use by another person, they need to be disinfected/cleaned;
All site offices shall be disinfected on a regular basis in accordance with local requirements.
All toilets, stores, equipment and tools shall be disinfected on a daily basis.
Reusable PPE and frequently touched surfaces should be cleaned and disinfected frequently (at

B. 23 Electrical Safety:
Electricity is a versatile energy, but it has to be safely used. Failure to take precaution
against electrical hazards may result in injuries or property damage or both. Control of electrical
hazards is neither difficult nor expensive but ignoring them may lead to serious accidents such as
electric shocks and electrical burns which can or may prove fatal.
Flow of electrical current through human body is the cause of electrical shock. Voltage, resistance
of the body to electricity, and time of current flow are important. Alternating current (AC) causes
involuntary grip, which prolongs time of contact, and therefore is more dangerous.
The electrical current flows through nerves, muscles causing disturbances their normal functions. If
its path is through the heart the accident can be fatal.
A person may fall from height as he may lose his balance on receiving shock.
Burns are caused by electrical flashes if a body part comes within flashing distance of a high voltage
current.
Burns may be caused due to short circuit also. Short circuit may lead to Electrical fires causing burns.
• Only trained and qualified persons may work on, near or with energized electrical supply
installations.
• All electrical circuits are to be treated as live unless suitable tested as otherwise
• No employee shall work near energized power circuits unless they are protected from shocks
by the circuit being de-energized or suitably insulated or earthed
• No manual excavation works may be permitted in areas of electrical cables unless employees
are wearing insulated protective gloves
• Electrical panels shall be kept closed and locked at all times unless being worked on by a
qualified electrician
• All electrical tools shall be in good working condition and regularly inspected
• GFIC (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters) shall be provided and used on site for all outdoor
power feed units and regularly inspected
• No ‘hot works shall be permitted on any system rated at 50V or more

All portable electrical apparatus is subject to a regular test and inspection procedure by Electrical
Department. If it is found safe for service then it is tagged accordingly.
Only equipment bearing a current validity shall be used.
The frequency of testing and inspection is determined by the Electrical Engineer who shall take
suitable account of duty and environment in deciding the frequency.
Portable electrical apparatus, by nature of its mobility is vulnerable to mechanical damage. Its safety
is therefore the responsibility of all who might wish to use it. Such equipment should be handled
with care to avoid unnecessary damage. Users should periodically check each item visually to ensure
that it is serviceable (e.g., that it is free of corrosion, that there is no outward sign of mechanical
damage to the appliance, the flexible cable or the plug). It is the responsibility of the user to report
any apparent defects to his supervisor.

times and allow for recovery. In addition, they shall be fully trained in the identification of
symptoms and be always provided with suitable PPE
B.27 Illumination:
During poor day lighting it is difficult to work, however it is still possible to perform certain activities
only is proper illumination is provided. Site lighting is always necessary if work is being carried out
in project site area shafts, enclosed stairways/ enclosed storage area. Apart from permitting
workers to see, adequate lighting helps to reduce potential hazards & it safeguards men, machinery
and material and makes for efficient, economic production. Sight lighting must be sufficient, well
planned, of the right type and in the right place for it to be more effective.
• Illumination level: Illumination levels on any part of a site can easily be checked visually by
daily observation the level of illumination required to provide the visibility in which work can
be carried out without any risk or fatigue.
• While planning for site lighting the effect of dust / dirt depreciation, low contrast areas must
be taken care of.
• The purpose of area lighting shall be to produce a level of illumination sufficient for men and
vehicles/equipments to move safely.
• Every part of the area shall receive light from at least two directions to prevent dense
shadows.
• Area lightings must be mounted on poles, towers or static crane towers moving supports are
not acceptable at all.
• If two lights are very far away from each other, illumination shall be patchy, confusing, and
ineffective.
• Beam flood lights are used to give concentrated light over an area from a relatively far
distance.
• Narrow beam flood is only used on sites with large open areas and they are usually mounted
on temporary tower at least 30m high.
• Narrow beam light to be mounted as high as possible and beam to be directed down wards
on the work to reduce glaring hazards as far as possible.
• Lightings shall be spaced to provide an even spread of light.
• Lights shall be arranged on the TC mast and boom, fixed light posts, and movable light posts
• Light intensity shall be managed in a way not to cause vision disturbance.

hazards exist.
• May consist of soft barriers or hard barriers ( eg: hazard tape / fixed railing systems )
• Hard barriers only shall be used for edge protection for excavations or floor penetrations
• Guard rails systems may be either of wooden or metal construction and in either case be
capable of withstanding a 200lb 0r 90.7kg force from any direction.
• Barriers shall be always sited sufficiently far away from the immediate hazard and the
required distance will be dependent upon the nature of the hazard
• Barricades shall suitably enclose the hazard to prevent unauthorized access to the area.
• Suitable lighting / flashing beacons shall be established for barricades used to warn of
hazards that may exist after dark
• Barricades will be established in conjunction with appropriate warning signage.
Slips, trips and falls account for most of the accidents in offices, many of them when staff are moving
or carrying loads. They happen because of the condition of floors, poor lighting, or untidiness.
Taking note of the following points can easily prevent such accidents:
• Do not allow trailing leads to create a tripping hazard.
• Do clear up spills quickly.

Date: 06 July 2023
Individuals working with chemicals should consider the following items to prepare
themselves for spill control and clean-up:
▪ Review Material Safety Data Sheets or other references for recommended spill
clean-up methods and materials, and the need for personal protective equipment
(e.g., respirators, gloves, etc.).
▪ Acquire sufficient quantities and types of spill control materials to contain any spills
than can be reasonably anticipated.
▪ Acquire recommended personal protective equipment and training in its proper use.
▪ Place spill control materials in a readily accessible location, close to the areas where
chemicals are used or stored.
▪ Immediately alert others in the area and the supervisor, and evacuate the area, if
necessary.
▪ Attend to any persons who may be contaminated. Contaminated clothing must be
removed immediately, and the skin flushed with water for no less than fifteen
minutes. Clothing must be laundered before reuse.
▪ If a volatile, flammable material is spilled, immediately warn others in the area,
control sources of ignition, and ventilate the area.
▪ Wear personal protective equipment, as appropriate to the hazards. Refer to the
Material Safety Data Sheet or other references available for information.
▪ If the spill is a MAJOR one, if there has been a release to the environment, or if
assistance is needed, contact the Civil Defense
▪ Consider the need for respiratory protection. The use of a respirator or self-
contained breathing apparatus requires specialized training and medical
surveillance. Never enter a contaminated atmosphere without protection or use a
respirator without training. If respiratory protection is available, be sure there is
another person outside the spill area in communication or in sight, in case of
emergency.
▪ Protect floor drains or other means for environmental release. Spill socks and
absorbents may be placed around drains, as needed.
▪ Loose spill control materials should be distributed over the entire spill area, working
from the outside, circling to the center. This reduces the chance of splash or
spreading of the spilled chemical.
▪ When the spilled materials have been absorbed, use a brush and scoop (spark-
resistant if flammable materials are involved) to place materials in an appropriate
container. Polyethylene bags may be used for small spills.
▪ Complete a hazardous waste tag, identifying the material as Spill Debris involving
XYZ Chemical, and affix the sticker to the container or bag. Remember the use of
an absorbent does not alter the chemical properties of the chemical. Contact the
Hazardous Waste Manager for advice on storage and packaging for disposal.

the plan is tested during a pre-planned mock exercise. Such an exercise will help in
reinforcing confidence on the level of preparedness to Meet any contingency, identify
weaknesses during the implementation so that the Plan could be revised / updated. Such a
mock exercise could be conducted once in 6 months.
