HOD/PIC shall authorize all hazardous works carry out by the employee and contractor. This is to ensure all hazards associated with the works identified prior commencement of the works and risk control measure can be taken.

Hazardous work requires authorization/ Permit to Work (PTW) are:

1. Electrical works.
2. Hotworks
3. Excavation
4. Confined space
5. Working at height
6. Lifring operations
7. Work involving hazardous substances;
8. Repair and maintenance of gas compressors, gas system (PRP, pipeline, MAT etc)
9. Demolition works

Use proper PPE required by the job.

PPE is equipment worn to minimize exposure to serious workplace injuries and illness which may resulted from contact with chemical, physical, electrical, mechanical and other workplace hazards.

Position yourself in a safe zone in relation to energized equipment and moving vehicles.

Obey any safety zone while working with energized equipment (e.g CNG system). Make yourself visible and ensure that drivers have eye contact with you. Confirm the PIC that it is safe to enter a restricted zone or barricaded area.

Verify energy isolation before starting work.
The workers doing work should do verification of energy isolation. It is done by locking, tagging and testing the system for zero energy. Types of energy that needs to be isolated included mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, thermal, chemical & pneumatic, PIC shall verify the reinstatement of the system

Obtain authorization before disabling or overriding Safety Critical Equipment (SCE).

SCE includes any device that prevents incidents and ensures effective control of the incident for the system. Example pressure relieving devices, detectors, alarms, emergency release system, uninterruptible power supply (UPS), fire protection equipment (including fire suppression system) and critical security devices.

Conduct gas test when required

Gas testing is mandatory prior to work being undertaken in a hydrocarbon area that carries a risk to personnel or equipment from exposure to explosive, flammable toxic of life-threatening vapours, Always conduct gas test:

• Before entering the confined space.
• Before any hotworks inside the plant area
• When there is suspected gas leak or whenever the atmosphere could be potentially hazardous or it unknown
• Before reinstatement of gas system after maintenance or repair work

Obtain authorization before entering a confined space and ensure monitoring is performed.

Entry to confined space can only be permitted only if:

• A valid PTW has been issued.
• The atmosphere inside the confined space has been tested and verified.
• The requirements stated in the PTW have been put in place
• A standby person is present at the entrance of the confined space
• A rescue plan is in plan

Do not smoke outside designated area or bring potential ignition sources into the plant area without authorization

Designed areas for smoking are areas are approved for smoking. Intervene and report if you see someone smoking outside the designed area. Potential ignition sources are mechanical sparks, fire, hot surfaces, auto ignition, mechanical impact, friction, electrical equipment and electrostatic.

Do not use your mobile phone/walkie talkie while driving, follow the speed limit and use your safety belt and safety helmet.

This rule applies when you are a drive or a passenger in company owned/leased/hired vehicles and applicable to those who are travelling on business. If you need to use the mobile phone, stop at the safe area. The use of seat belts is mandatory for all passengers. Follow the speed limit. Motorcycle rider and passenger must use helmet at all times.

Use correct procedures & PPE when handling chemicals.

Handling of chemicals include operations of receiving, storing, using, discharging, transporting and disposing chemicals. User shall identify chemicals and conduct HIRARC prior to work as well reviewing Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and understand the hazard of each chemical
