Plant Specific Contractor Safety Information G-P Oregon Chemical Facilities Albany/Eugene
Plant Safety VisionZAC Culture Zero Accident Culture (Z.A.C.) Through Common Principles • I Stop Unsafe Situations • I Stop, Think and Ask Before Every Task • I Hold Myself and Others Responsible For Doing the Right Thing • I Continuously Challenge Our Processes to Improve Safety • I Give and Accept Positive and Constructive Feedback • I Continuously Educate Myself and Others • I Promote Teamwork and Trust
ZAC Culture • Stop, Think and Ask. We acknowledge that the contractors who are asking questions are on board with our safety culture. Clarifying questions are regarded as protective to all our employees. • Job Walk- We will be auditing for this item. It is important for our team to fully communicate to our contractors the hazards behind LOTO, and to do so just prior to the job IN PERSON/AT THE WORKSITE… • Know Your Hazards –and Rescue Plan. This will be covered in audits as well. Remember, you will be expected to know the location of the nearest first aid, fire extinguishers, eye wash stations, safety showers, decontamination kits, carbowax, etc. You will be expected to have a rescue plan in place and know how to summon for additional help.
Contractor Safety Orientations Must be completed before work begins. Must be renewed annually. The safety orientation can be conducted before a Contractor comes on site using an internet or computer based site-specific orientation with a test for understanding. You must have an opportunity to ask questions or receive clarifications before you begin work. Orientation in the OSHA required elements must be conducted by an individual knowledgeable in safety/health requirements and in the job to be performed.
