- As an SNC employee, you are responsible for performing work in a safe and efficient manner without endangering yourself or others. Compliance with industrial safety and industrial hygiene related procedures, instructions, guidelines, and applicable requirements of the Fleet Safety program is mandatory. You are also responsible for challenging others you observe violating safety rules, procedures, or safe work practices. Unsafe work practices may be subject to disciplinary action.
- In addition to the job planning performed by your supervisor or person in charge of the activity, you are responsible for making a thorough evaluation of the work to be performed by using One Minute Matters, STAR, or other Human Performance tools to establish necessary safe work procedures. When conditions change or if unforeseen circumstances become apparent, employees shall reevaluate the work and follow the appropriate safe work practices.
- You shall obtain necessary safety equipment, protective devices, barriers, and any other necessary equipment. If you have any questions concerning the planning of the job you shall ask your supervisor.
- You are responsible for looking for safety hazards. If you locate a hazard, correct it if you can. If you cannot correct the hazard, take appropriate actions to protect other workers and report the hazard immediately to your supervisor for correction.
- You shall keep yourself in a physical and mental condition that permits you to perform your duties safely. You shall notify your supervisor if you do not feel fit to perform your assigned duties. Should you experience an injury on the job, you shall report the event and the nature of the injury to your supervisor immediately.
- If you are not actively involved in the industrial work environment and enter a work location, you shall position yourself a safe distance away from the work being performed.
- If you have been assigned to perform work that you feel unqualified to perform safely, you shall notify your supervisor prior to starting work. Your supervisor shall decide whether you are qualified prior to proceeding with the work as planned.
- You shall not operate equipment if any of its safety features are inoperable or have been removed unless adequate provisions, supervisory approval, and precautionary measures are taken so that continued operation of the equipment would not endanger you or others.
