i. All employers are responsible for their employees in the recognition and elimination of hazards
and unsafe acts and the regulations applicable to their work. HSE training, good HSE practices
and appropriate immediate corrective action are the keys to the prevention of accidents, loss of
life and property damage. No matter how many rules and regulations are set forth, a good HSE
Programme depends mainly on a positive and intelligent attitude by the managements and
workers involved.
ii. All workers are responsible to plan and accomplish their work with due regard for the HSE of all
individuals on the jobsite. They will be expected to eliminate all possible accident hazards when
planning the work under their control. Contractor shall observe and correct any accident
producing practices before injury occurs. If an accident does occur, it would be investigated to
determine the cause and develop corrective action to prevent a recurrence. All accidents shall
immediately be reported to the Project Manager Architect/S.O. and SPSB.
iii. Accidents have no set time or place. They often occur without warning and without regard for
person or place. SPSB trust that with contractor’s help and commitment, the project site shall all
be ACCIDENT FREE.
iv. Compliance to the SPSB’s HSE Programme will be regularly reviewed at all employee levels
and violations will be recorded.
CCC) Disclaimer
i. Contractor shall have deemed to have allowed in his Tender all costs and expenses incurred in
compliance with such health, safety and environment rules and measures and shall be
responsible for and shall indemnify the Employer and/or Consultants against any claim, fine or
legal proceeding arising out of the Contractor's failure to observe the above.
ii. This requirement outlines the minimum S P Setia's HSE requirements for contractors working
with us.
iii. Contractor may adopt more stringent rules and standards to meet specific needs or any related
regulatory requirements.
iv. Contractor shall aware and comply with the latest HSE act and regulations requirements.

Contractor Safety Performance Incentive Scheme
