- Whenever IP is made aware of a new or previously unrecognized hazard.
- For all supervisors to ensure they are familiar with the safety and health hazards to which employees under their immediate direction and control may be exposed.
An effective safety and health plan requires proper job performance by everyone in the workplace.
It is the determination of IP to ensure that all employees are knowledgeable about the materials and equipment with which they work, what known hazards are present, and how they are controlled.
EQUIPMENT
All employees are properly trained and supervised in the safe operation of any machinery, tools, equipment, process, or practice which they are authorized to use or apply while at work.
Any machinery, tool, material, or equipment that is not in compliance with any applicable OSHA requirement is prohibited.
