7.1 Suspended load

PPK & SUBCONTRACTORS objects shall be used above the ground floor or any structure unless such
floor or structure has been so designed and constructed as to support the load imposed by the
object.

No objects shall be left suspended above any personnel or property, at any circumstances. Every
activity that includes such hazard shall be barricaded to avoid any unauthorized admittance.

The installation and usage of cantilever form traveller shall also be considered as hazard related to
suspended load. Therefore, the installation & dismantling of cantilever form traveller shall only be
done by trained and experienced work or subcontractor to avoid falling or collapse of the form
traveller. The installation of form traveller shall be supported by using scaffold system or chain block
or crane lifting wherever and whenever required.

7.2 Drowning

Where employees or visitors are exposed to such hazard there shall be provided by PPK &
SUBCONTRACTORS at all times during the exposure, adequate personal floating device (PFD).

No personnel shall be allowed to work near or above water unless they attended S&H Induction
Briefing, being informed with ERP and confirmed to PPK regarding their ability to swim.

While working near or above water, all personnel shall wear their PFD at all time. Where working
platform is provided for such work, adequate railings shall be installed to prevent falling into the
water.

7.3 Slip &trip

PPK & SUBCONTRACTORS shall not allow any employee to use any elevated structure which is in
slippery or oily condition unless the surface is cleaned, dried, sanded or covered.

All passageways shall be kept free from accumulations of any form of obstructions that could cause
tripping.

PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION AND COMPLETION OF THE SARAWAK COASTAL ROAD, PACKAGE 04:
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION AND COMPLETION OF MUARA LASSA BRIDGE,MUKAH DIVISION, SARAWAK
Rev. No: 0 Effective date: 01.04.2019 Page 16 of 35

Every pinch point shall be identified and informed to employees. Where machine guarding is
applicable to prevent both cutting and pinch point hazards, such guarding shall be installed and shall
not be removed by anyone. Where machine guarding is not applicable, proper information and
supervision should be provided to employees.

For most applications machine guarding is an engineering control method that is the best of several
of available options for protecting personnel working around machinery and equipment. The
installation of machinery and machine guards is a governing factor in controlling and preventing
accidents and injuries. The selection of a guarding method to be used if the machine does not have a
manufacturer's installed guard may depend on a number of things such as space limitations; size of
stock, and frequency of use. The following general guidelines are provided to assist in that selection.

Design and construction characteristics of machine guards include:

-The guard must be considered a permanent part of the machine or equipment.

-The guard must afford positive protection. Personnel should not be able to reach a
hazard by reaching into, over, under, or through a properly designed and installed guard.

-The guard must prevent access to the danger zone during operation of the equipment.

-The guard must be as convenient as possible and must not interfere with normal
operation of the machine or maintenance functions. This may include hinging guards to
allow for access, using drift pins, latches, or minimizing the number of cumbersome
attachments.

-The guard should be designed for the specific job and specific machine, with provisions
for lubricating, inspecting, adjusting, and repairing the machine.

-The guard must be durable and constructed strongly enough to resist normal wear.

-The guard must not present a hazard in itself.

-The guard should not be easily bypassed or defeated. The use of "dead man" controls is
the preferred method because if the safety device fails or is bypassed, the machine will
not present a hazard to personnel.

7.5 Electrical

PPK & SUBCONTRACTORS shall ensure any electrical equipment, source or cables are safe to be used
and not exposed to wet condition either from weather, personnel, machines or the electrical
equipment itself. In accordance, no looping of electrical cables over nails or brackets or scaffolding

shall be allowed. Any electrical materials, wiring, temporary or permanent, accompanied with ELCB
& proper earthing, shall be installed and check by authorized personnel according to Sarawak Energy
Sdn. Bhd. guidelines.

PPK & SUBCONTRACTORS shall post and maintain proper warning signs where such hazards exist at
their own respected worksite.

hazard by providing necessary PPE & arrangements. All elevated power lines shall have sufficient
vertical clearance for large and heavy vehicles and shall not be lowered than 6 metres from ground
surface.

PPK & SUBCONTRACTORS shall liaise with CLIENT, CONSULTANTS or LOCAL AUTHORITIES whenever
their works interrupt the power supplies for local community or having doubt on risk of
electrocution.

All electrically powered portable tools shall be inspected prior to use. Tools with frayed cords,
broken ground prongs, etc are not to be used. All portable electrical powered tools shall have
insulation and ground tests done on a regular basis. Conductivity tests shall be performed on all
electrical protective equipment at prescribed intervals. This protective shall include rubber insulating
gloves, line hoses and covers, and nonconductive matting

Working on exposed circuit/parts that are energized will not be permitted unless the workers are
qualified and trained to do so. Safety related work practices shall be used to prevent electric shock or
other electrically induced injuries. Qualified workers are those who have been trained to work safely
on energized circuits and, when appropriate, to use the proper personal protective equipment,
insulating and shielding materials, and insulated tools. Two workers, one of whom must be trained in
CPR, shall work together any time work must be performed on high voltage energized circuitry or
equipment.

7.6 Hazardous Chemical & Substances

PPK & SUBCONTRACTORS shall ensure that dust control is in place to prevent such hazard to injure
health or obstruct vision or causing dirty roads or to exceed safe exposure levels. In order to do so,
provision of dust mask, vehicle tyre cleaning drive through or ground wetting shall be done.

PPK & SUBCONTRACTORS shall ensure that such chemicals or substances are stored properly in a
way that shall not impose any safety or health hazards to employee or visitors or environment. Any
chemical stored shall be recorded and related safety data sheet for every chemicals or substances
shall be provided. This also includes provision of relevant PPE and storage in order to safe handle

8. Personal protective equipment

Whenever possible, processes, equipment, and environments should be designed and arranged so as
to prevent or minimize hazardous exposure to personnel. When this is not feasible, approved
personal protective equipment (PPE) will be provided, and individuals will be instructed in its proper
use and limitations. Once personal protective equipment is provided, its use must be enforced by
supervisory personnel. Only approved, properly fitted personal protective equipment will be used.
The S&H Department will provide assistance in determining the type of personal equipment required
in any working area. Personal protective equipment will not be used in hazardous areas or where
hazardous conditions exist until it has been determined that the individual can wear the equipment
without endangering his/her health.

The supervisor of each work center shall be responsible for determining the quantity of personal
protective equipment required and for control of such equipment issued to its personnel.
Supervisory personnel are responsible for training their personnel in the selection, use, inspection,
and care of personal protective equipment required for their unique work situations, and for

8.1 Respiratory Protection

The Respiratory Protection Program is a system whereby respirators will be properly selected, used,
and maintained in a manner which will protect employees from hazardous and oxygen deficient
atmospheres in the workplace.

For employees who will be required to work in respirators in conjunction with work and/or research
activities, the S&H Department will provide additional instruction and qualitative fit testing as
prescribed by current OSHA regulations.

8.2 Protective Headwear

Approved protective headwear (hard hats) shall be worn by all personnel working where there is
danger of head injury from impact, falling or flying objects, or electrical shock and burns. Protective
headwear shall also be worn by operators of materials handling equipment, personnel engaged in
construction work, warehousing, personnel working in excavations, and all personnel using pickaxes,
sledge hammers, and chain

All approved hard hats must meet the specifications of the SIRIM, Malaysia. Metal or light plastic
"bump caps" do not fit in the category of approved hard hats and therefore shall not take the place
of such equipment saws. Head protection worn by personnel exposed to electrical shock and burn
hazards shall be specifically approved for electrical work hazards. Work center heads/supervisors
must ensure that all personnel who work in "Hard Hat Areas" or in occupations which require
protective headwear are issued a properly fitting, nonmetallic safety hard hat in accordance with the
provisions of this section.

It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the suspension straps are properly installed and that the
hat fits properly and is free of cracks, holes, or other imperfections which will negate its protective
qualities. Since the effectiveness of hard hats depends upon their structural strength, no ventilation
holes, openings, cutting of brims, or other alterations are to be made to any hard hat.

8.3 Sight Conservation / Eyes Protection

Personnel engaged in eye hazardous work or research shall be provided with the appropriate type of
eye protective equipment in consonance with the assigned task. Eye hazardous operations are
defined as any task, assignment, or operation that presents danger, however remote, to the eyes of

the worker or those individuals within ten feet of impact, loose foreign bodies, glare, chemical
infiltration, injurious radiation, or any combination of the above.

Eye hazardous areas are defined as those in which there are sufficient overlapping eye hazardous
operations to present a general risk of injury to personnel entering or working therein. Anyone
entering an eye hazardous area must wear approved eye protection at all times.

The type of eye protection for each work center will be determined by the work center supervisor
based on the type of protection required. In general, the following types can be considered for use:

8.3.1 General Use - Spectacles with side shields for operations in which foreign bodies may be
expected to come from the side of the worker or where personnel engaged in eye hazardous work
are working closely together.

8.3.2 Corrective Eyewear - Most work centers would find it cost prohibitive to order safety
spectacles with optically corrective lenses. Cover goggles which can be worn over the workers
regular spectacles should be considered.

8.3.3 Welding, Cutting, and Brazing - These operations require special filtered lenses of varying
shades dependent upon the type of work being performed.

8.3.4 Banding and Unbanding - Eyes can be protected by using approved goggles or safety glasses
with full-cup side shields. An approved face shield is also available to provide face protection when
used in conjunction with appropriate eyewear.

8.3.5 Impact Hazard Goggles and Spectacles - Eyecup goggles with glass lenses or plastic enclosed
eye-shields are appropriate for heavy impact and large particles, such as in chipping, caulking,
sledging, etc. Spectacle goggles may have leather, plastic, or wire mesh side shields that can not
easily be removed and are appropriate for moderate impact and small particles such as in scaling,
grinding, woodworking, machine operation, and general work. One piece plastic eye shields, with or
without side shields, are for moderate impact and sparks.

8.3.6 Impact and Chemical Face Shields - Shields, curved to cover the face area, provide general
protection from flying particles, sprays, sparks, etc. Goggles may be worn underneath when the eyes
require more positive protection. Nonconductive types are made without metal for use by electrical
workers.

8.3.7 Harmful Liquids and Fine Dusts - Chemical hazard goggles shall be used for work involving
chemicals and for any operation which produces fine dust or hazardous and irritating liquids. In
conditions where chemicals are concentrated or where splash hazard are continuous, the goggles
should be worn under a face shield for greater protection.

It shall be the responsibility of the individual and the work center supervisor to ensure that personal
protective eyewear is maintained in a clean and fully operational condition, and that it is used while
performing eye hazardous operations.

8.4 Hearing Conservation

Noise is one of the most pervasive occupational health problems. Exposure to high levels of noises
causes temporary or permanent hearing loss and may cause other harmful health effects as well.

In essence, this means that personnel exposed to noise levels above 90 dba for the duration of an 8
hour work day or to impulse or impact peak levels exceeding 140 dba shall be provided with hearing
protection devices. Either circumcural hearing protectors (earmuffs) or aural insert hearing
protectors (ear plugs) may be used. Plain cotton is not an acceptable hearing protection device.

8.5 Hand Protection

Hand protection shall be provided to all personnel working in operations involving heated or frigid
materials, petroleum products, acids, caustics, or other chemicals that are hazardous when in
contact with the skin, live electrical circuits, abrasive work, or when handling materials with sharp
edges. Other hand protection may be supplied at the discretion of the work center supervisor for
work involving the handling of contaminants, materials which are splintered or extremely rough
surfaced, or for other special work needs.

8.6 Foot protection

Foot hazardous operations are those which have a high incidence or potential for foot or toe injuries.
Examples of work generally associated with a high incidence of foot injuries are construction,
material handling, warehousing, maintenance, pier operations, vessel operations, transportation,
and grounds work. Safety shoes with built-in protective toe box are primarily intended to provide
protection from heavy falling objects and must be labeled accordingly.

Thus going "barefoot," or using open-toed shoes, sandals, or "flip flops" is expressly prohibited in
PPK Construction area. All personnel involved in outdoor work must wear footwear which offers
protection from lacerating and penetrating injuries as might be caused by broken glass, nails, or
shells.

8.7 Personal floating device (pfd)

Accidental drowning can usually be linked to one or more of the following factors

- Failure to provide or wear PFD

- Failure to wear PFD correctly
- Disregard or miscalculate of a hazard
- Lack of supervision
- Inability to cope or calm during drowning
- Absence of rescuers and rescue equipments

There are 5 types of PFD but for an amphibious work, it is recommended to choose only three kinds
of PFD which are Life Jacket, Work Vest & Ring Life Buoy.

Life jacket has better time rate buoyancy than work vest due to the size of buoyant material used to
make the life jacket, but, in term of usage while working, work vest is better than life jacket, as it
does not restrict the wearer’s body movement so much rather than life jacket. Ring life buoy is to be
thrown to drowning personnel in order to keep him floating a little bit longer for marine rescue by
boat. Life jacket should be worn before travelling above water and work vest should be worn while
working at edge and above water.

PPK & SUBCONTRACTORS shall provide such PPE to their own workers respectively, regardless
whether it is mentioned or not mentioned in the CLIENT-MAINSUBCON or MAINSUBCON-SUBCON
contractual agreement, as this is a legal requirement from OSHA 1994 under EMPLOYER’S
RESPONSIBILITY and the cost shall not be imposed to the employees.

All site personnel under CLIENT-CONSULTANT-MAINCON-SUBCON or visitors shall comply to PPE

requirement at work site.

9. S&H COMMUNICATION

9.1 S&H Committees

PPK will facilitate the effective operation of a Site S&H Committee conducted in compliance, once
every three months with relevant regulatory requirements. A safety and health committee shall be
