The success of this safety plans requires total cooperation of all members of the construction
team. It is crucial that all employees understand their role within this safely plan, as described
below.
2.2 Superintendent
• Know and understand the health and safety regulations related to his/her area of
responsibility.
• Ensure all employees that he/she supervises use the required personal protective
equipment (PPE) and safety devices.
• Ensure safety compliance during activities within his/her area of responsibility.
• Ensure that safety equipment is available, maintained, and used correctly.
• Implement QUIM’s safety program and policy.
• Require all subcontractors to comply with health and safety regulations as well as
QUIM’s safety program and policy.
• Require the correction of unsafe conditions.
• Conduct weekly safety meetings.
• Maintain copies of applicable programs and OSHA forms on site.
• Ensure that foremen are aware and comply with the safety program.
• Assist in post-accident investigation.
• Instruct and train all persons of the safety requirements.
2.5 Subcontractors
• By contract, the subcontractors must comply with all of QUIM’s safety plans and
procedures as well as their own safety program.
• Failure to meet these requirements is a breach of the contract.
5: Safety Hazards
The following safety notes are an important sample of all the safety that must be achieved. It is
by no means an exhaustive list.
5.4Scaffold Safety
• Guardrails will be installed on all open sides of scaffold platforms more than 10 feet
above the ground, floor, or lower level.
QUIM Design Build | 1: Site References 5
[SITE SPECIFIC SAFETY PLAN: NORTH POINTE]
• Scaffolds four to ten feet in height with a minimum horizontal dimension in any direction
less than 45 inches will have standard railing installed on all open sides.
• Platforms at all working levels will be fully planked. No more than a 1 in gap may be
between the planking. Extend the planking over the end supports 6-12 inches unless
cleats are used.
• The front edge of all platforms will be no more than 14 inches from the face of the work.
• Mobile scaffolds will be erected no more than a maximum height of four times their
minimum base dimension.
• Scaffolds cannot be overloaded beyond their design loads.
• Scaffold components will not be used as tie-off/anchor points for fall protection devices.
• Portable ladders, hook-on ladders, attachable ladders, integral prefabricated scaffold
frames, walkways, or direct access from another scaffold or structure will be used for
access when platforms are more than two feet above or below a point of access.
• Scaffolds must not be used in locations that their conductive materials may come in
contact with exposed and energized power lines.
5.9 Painting
• Proper PPE must be worn when paint fumes are present. This includes all workers who
are not directly related to the painting procedure.
• Make sure proper ventilation is achieved to alleviate the paint fume hazards. If proper
ventilation cannot be achieved provide one day of non-work in the area to diffuse the
fumes.
• Ventilation masks must be provided by the painting subcontractor to their employees. All
other employees will be supplied by QUIM at their request.
• A verbal warning will be issued and a warning that a second occurrence within one
month will bring about stage 2.
If the violation is other than minor, stages may be skipped. It will be at the discretion of the
safety director.
