employee participation in safety and health program decisions.

Management hires outside consultants as necessary to conduct baseline surveys that idall safety and health hazards at the site at the time of the survey. All hazards found during t

surveys are eliminated whenever possible or controlled. All employees who may encounter

controlled hazards are trained in appropriate job procedures to follow to protect themselves

these hazards.

Management establishes change procedures to follow whenever the site experiences chain equipment, material, or processes. To ensure employee protection, these change proced

include consideration of safety and health in the selection of the change, equipment

process shut down procedures, start up procedures, and phase hazard analysis. Approp

employees are trained to follow these procedures.

Management and employees work together to analyze safety and health hazards inhereeach job site and to find means to eliminate those hazards whenever possible, and otherwis

The site works with appropriate outside agencies, such as the fire department, the p

department, and the hospital to write emergency plans for all potential emergencies, inclu

fire, explosion, accident, sever weather, loss of power and/or water, and violence from

outside source. Desk top drills are conducted monthly so that all employees experience aon each type of emergency once a year. A total site evacuation drill focusing on one emerg

type, with all work shut down, and coordinated with the appropriate agency, is conducted on

year. Each drill, whether table top or actual evacuation, is evaluated by the drill plan

committee, constituted each year with two managers or supervisors and two hourly emplo

who volunteer. This committee's written report is posted in the lunch room, and superv

ensure that all employees know the results. When necessary, the emergency procedures

revised as a result of the evaluation report.

Persons needing emergency care are transported by company van or community ambulanc

the hospital, located five miles from the site. Usually that trip can be made in less than

minutes. Onsite during all shifts designated persons fully trained in cardiac pulmo

resuscitation (CPR), first aid, and the requirements of OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogen Stan

are the first responders to any emergency. These persons are trained by qualified Red C

instructors. One of these designated persons' safety and health responsibilities is to ensure
