Antitrust Guidelines

It is Shell policy to strictly comply with all Federal and Provincial antitrust

laws. Meeting participants are reminded that during, before and after

meetings, there shall be no discussion of competitively sensitive

information, including but not limited to prices, costs, customers,

suppliers, output or production, commercial plans, allocation of territories

or customers, or any other discussion that could be viewed as restraining

competition or limiting any person or company from free access to any

business, market, customer, or vendor.

Discussion should be limited to agenda items only. Any questions about

the propriety of a discussion item should be raised immediately and

should be addressed with an abundance of caution. When in doubt,

participants should table issues until reviewed by legal.

Antitrust Guidelines – Things to Remember

Don’t discuss prices with competitors.

Don’t forget that conviction of antitrust violations is criminal and

can lead to personal incarceration and substantial fines for you as

well as your company.

Don’t agree with competitors to boycott suppliers or customers.

Don’t prepare documents or make presentations without

considering antitrust implications.

Don’t discuss with competitors levels of production outputs.

Safety Moment

Road Departures and Rollovers historically increase during the

winter months.

Commuting Incidents Target audience for this alert All Business drivers. What happened Recently, three single vehicle rollover incidents have occurred during commutes. Two contractors (non-Shell) driving light goods vehicles and one contractor (non-Shell) driving a heavy goods vehicles. Why it happened The investigations of these incidents are not yet complete. Incidents occurred during hours of darkness on straight roadways covered in ice and snow. All three vehicles were travelling below the posted speed limits. Lessons learned Challenge the need for the trip and explore the possibility to car pool to site. Vehicles should be equipped with the proper tires for the season/conditions. Road and weather conditions must be part of a Journey Management Plan. Review the weather reports and road condition reports daily before starting a journey. If required, check the

conditions often throughout the day. Recommendations Review the Shell Winter Driving Guide and Safety Meeting Presentation with staff and contractors. Remind drivers to drive to the road / weather conditions and if the conditions are too poor for travel, cancel the journey. Further information For more incident details or more information regarding the questions, please contact your local Road Transport Safety focal or UA Road Safety.

What Shell would like from you and your teams...

Crews that are knowledgeable and are willing to PAUSE

Crews in the fields are often the experts in their roles. They need to

PAUSE or stop work if uncertain

Report incidents/Near Miss/Potential incidents

If reported we can learn and correct potential or unsafe issues

Actively work on closing gaps identified on the Road Transport

Assessment &/or the Risk Management Assessment

7 7

What Shell will strive to give to you...

Work

We give priority to people that work safely.

If you cannot work safe, we will drop the contract.

A safe work environment to train your new employees

SSE’s are fine – but they have to be mentored.

Full support to improve tools/procedures if you see a better way

A consistent standard of working

We know we are not perfect but we value consistency too.

Work with you to learn from every incident and continuously improve.

Reporting – why report NM/UAC’s?

9 9

Reporting Impacts TRCF Trend

Embrace Near Miss and Unsafe Act Reporting

• Correlation between Reporting and Results

• Build Trust to enable improvement in safety culture

• Identify underlying risks in our business

SUPPORT: Inquire with staff about the last UAC or NM they experienced.

Was it reported and shared?

10 10

RT - Incident Reporting by Type

Near miss/UAUC reporting accounts for 66% of incidents reported by UAL in 2015

Albian 2014 only 38% of incidents reported were not incidents with consequence (NM/UAUC)

Albian 2015 YTD 45% of incidents reported were not incidents with consequence (NM/UAUC)

• 4,805 drinking drivers were

involved in collisions, resulting in:

Impaired by Alcohol

Fatalities 444

Major Injuries

2220

Minor Injuries

Plan before you have your first drink

Alcohol impairment starts

with the first drink

Regardless of BAC,

drivers who do not feel fit to drive should not

drive

Impaired

Driving

The

Responsibility

is Yours

A standard drink contains 13.5 grams of

alcohol

• Alcohol can affect individuals differently. E.g., males vs. females

• Alcohol can also affect the same person differently

depending on various factors including:

Mood

Fatigue

Level

Rate of

consumption

Empty

Stomach Weight Medication

Impaired

Driving How much

can I drink?


Distracted Driving

• Contributing factor of 20- 30% of collisions in

Alberta.

• Texting is one of the most dangerous.

• Fine is $172.00

• Careless Driving- $402.00 and 6 demerit

points.

• At 100k/hr-

– we cover 27.7 m every second

– take eyes off the road 4 seconds we travel more than

the length of a football field before we look back at the

road

Impaired By Fatigue

• Awake for 18 hours has an impairment level compared to someone who has a BAC .05

• Awake for 20 hours has an impairment level compared to someone who has a BAC of .10

• May cause significant lapses in ability to concentrate or make sound judgments

• Increase in injuries -

15.2% afternoon shifts --- 27.9% on night shifts

• Night workers get 5-7 hours less sleep per week

• 20% of Fatal Motor Vehicle Crashes are Fatigue

Related

• Research found that in long haul truck driver

fatigue related incidents, the driver had slept

5.5 hours or less prior to the incident

• Between midnight- 6am & 2- 4pm, more likely to

experience catastrophic loss CCMTA; TIRF; Dawson and Reid, 1997; Lamond and Dawson, 1999;

Arnedt, Wilde, Munt and MacLean, 2001; Williamson et al., 2001

Fatigue Related Collision


• Usually involve a single vehicle drifting off the road (75% of incidents)

• Or, are head on collisions where the fatigued driver is not attempting to pass (25%)

• Usually driver is the only passenger

• Male drivers under the age of 25 are at a higher risk of a fatigue related collision

• Difficult to determine if fatigue was the cause

Highway Hypnosis… White Line

Fever – Driving a vehicle along a long stretch of

roadway for an extended period of time

– Monotony of a long drive can induce sleepiness or forgetfulness

– Can lull the brain into trance, the body is essentially operating on auto pilot while the mind is off somewhere else.

– Most common during late-night hours when time of day also plays a role in drowsiness.

• Roads are built with rumble strips or variations to scenery to reduce monotony of the road.

Signs of Being Fatigued

• Yawning

• Head bobbing

• Drifting out of your lane

• Irritability/aggressiveness

• Excessive eye blinking > focusing

• Day dreaming/difficulty of focusing

• Missing exits or entrance ramps/cross streets

Fatigue Driving- Prevention Tips

• Take a 10 to 20 minute

• Avoid driving when you would be normally sleeping

• ! Less than 8 hours of sleep in the past 24 hours you will likely be

fatigued.

• Avoid alcohol and medications that cause drowsiness

• Allow more time to get to your designation, drivers trying to make

destinations by a certain time are more likely to push themselves

beyond acceptable physical limits.

• Keep an upright sitting posture, slouching or leaning backwards can

increase drowsiness.

• Drink water and eat healthy foods. Avoid fatty, heavy foods that will

likely induce sleep.

• Drink beverages with caffeine only if a boost is necessary.

North American Fatigue Management Program

www.nafmp.org

• Developed by Transport Canada, U.S. Department of Transportation and Provincial partners (WCB, Alberta Transportation)

• Provides training and education on commercial bus and truck driver fatigue management.

• Provides drivers and carriers with an awareness of the factors contributing to fatigue and its impact on performance/safety.

– How to develop a corporate culture that facilitates reduce driver fatigue

– Fatigue management education >drivers/carriers/managers/dispatchers

– Information on sleep disorders, screening and treatment

– Driver and trip scheduling information

– Information on fatigue Management Technologies

– Note this complements but does override regulation on hours of service

THINK & DRIVE… No exceptions, No excuses

REMEMBER… We all have someone who wants us home

safely!
