Safety Management

1. Safety Management Current Issues Spring 2007

2. SUSTAINABILITY • Components • Economic growth • Environmental integrity and performance • Social equity ISO: International Standards Organization DJSI: Dow Jones Sustainability Index Global Reporting Initiative http://www.globalreporting.org/Home

3. SUSTAINABILITY • Environmental Performance (Eco-efficiency) and Environmental Reporting • Total GHG emissions (CO2) • Other GHG (CH4, N2O, HFC, PFC, SF6) • Total water use • Total energy consumption • Total waste generation (www.theclimateregistry.org)

4. SUSTAINABILITY • Economic Indicators (DJSI) • Codes of Conduct / Compliance / Corruption & Bribery • Corporate Governance • Risk and Crisis Management

5. SUSTAINABILITY • Social Indicators (concept is evolving – no current standard definition under ISO) “How does an organization establish internal procedures that create wealth and improve society?” • Corporate Citizenship / Philanthropy • Labor Practices (Health and Safety) • Human Capital Development • Talent Attraction & Retention

6. Rutgers Sustainability Activities • University Sustainability Committee • Recyclemania • Sustainable Design criteria • Alternative Fuel Vehicles • Natural Gas • Biodiesel (B-20) • Sustainable Purchasing Program • Recycled paper • Green cleaning chemicals • Computers (EPEAT standard) • Furniture RFP

7. Pandemic Flu Planning • Pandemic Sheltering Group • Formed under EOC (includes Housing, Dining, Res. Life, etc) • Estimate need for food, shelter, quarantine, or medical isolation • Define current maximum surge capacity • Selection of suitable locations • Plan for provision with expectation of 40% absenteeism • Ensure needed supplies • Sheltering plan as prototype for other situations

8. “Chance favors the prepared mind.”Louis Pasteur

9. EPA Self Audit Program • Systematic audit of environmental requirements • Disclose violations • Correct all violations • Prevent recurrence of future violations • Universal waste (storage & labeling) • Stormwater (grounds maintenance) • SPCC inspections

13. Unit Safety Committees • Promote employee involvement • Performance measures • “Leading” indicators (predictors of performance) • Different from traditional institutional performance indicators • List in handouts • Assessing incidents for “Preventability”

14. Assessing Incidents-Preventability Scale • Should this have been prevented or avoided? • Rate incidents - Scale of 1 – 5 • 1 Unit / employee are not at fault • 2 Cause was hard to detect • 3 Foreseeable with diligence • 4 Recognizable by a reasonable individual • 5 Obvious hazard or safety procedure ignored

15. Accident Preventability Chart

16. Employee Complaints Investigate promptly Written Plan Must describe how compliance will be achieved Annual review of program Control of Microbial Growth Visual inspections of HVAC and other systems Prompt repair or continue assessment until repair is completed Clean up/drying/removal of wet materials within 48 hours Designate a person responsible for compliance Must be familiar w/ req. Establish PM program Meeting manufacturer's recommendations or by following accepted practice Compliance Program Check HVAC when temp/CO2 exceed specified parameters Install controls if maintenance activities (or other sources) create condition above PEL Relocate inlets/exhaust if contamination of OA identified IAQ STANDARD - REQUIREMENTS

17. Renovation Work Prevent infiltration of contaminants Review MSDSs prior to determination of products used & nature of controls Work area shall be cleaned and ventilated, as necessary, prior to reoccupancy 24 hour notice to employees if work may introduce contaminants into occupied area Smoking Section removed Recordkeeping Required for any work to HVAC or bldg systems Must include date of service and name person or company performing work Maintain records for 3 years Must be provided to employee upon written request within 10 working days PEOSH Complaints Respond to complaint within 15 working days Provide other documents, per request (such as as-built, testing/balancing reports, manuals, etc. IAQ STANDARD - REQUIREMENTS

18. OSHA promulgated revised electrical standards (subpart S) Effective date 8/13/07 PEOSH must adopt within 6 months (2/13/07) Used NFPA 70E 2002 as guide Utilities operation exempt (comply with power distribution std) Work Practices vs. Installation Predominantly, will affect how we do electrical work Installations Generally, we are compliant State DCA Codes Standard states NJ meets 1999 NEC codes Must update installation if overhaul to equipment (similar to code upgrades for renovation projects) Prohibition on using ground terminals/devices for any other purpose Must label equipment Magnitude, approach distance and hazard information Electrical Standard – 1910 Subpart S

19. For any work on equipment w/ exposed live parts Lo/To will eliminate need Must assess task for hazard and need for PPE How is up to employer Shock and flash hazard analysis PPE – Equipment Based on assessment Gloves, eye/face protection, hearing protection, head protection, etc PPE – Clothing May need to change uniform Current clothing not adequate for all work performed Provide rated shirts, pants, coveralls, jackets, etc. GFCI required for all maintenance work No 3/2 prong adapters Requirements for Work Practices (Subpart S)
