1.0 PURPOSE

To establish a purpose for systematically identifying all the hazards/risks associated

with a task or job and to implement appropriate control measures.

NOTE: Bechtel policy strictly forbids retaliation of reprisal against an employee

for reporting a safety, health or environmental concern.

2.0 SCOPE

This procedure can be applied to tasks assigned to individual employees as well as

to a crew or multiple crews.

3.0 DEFINITIONS

3.1 The Safety Task Analysis Risk Reduction Talk (STARRT) is a process that
utilizes employees to identify and resolve environmental, safety and health
hazards associated with a task prior to its being performed (see Exhibit A).

3.2 A Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) identifies key job steps, tools, equipment,
potential environmental, safety and health hazards, hazard control practices,
required personal protection equipment (PPE) for larger, more complex and
usually repetitive jobs. It is prepared by a team normally comprised of a
representative from the environmental, safety and health department, craft
supervisors and field engineering representative (see Exhibit B).

3.3 A task is a specific activity or subpart of a job (i.e., installing a pipe hanger,
building a concrete form or installing electrical power to a fabrication area).

4.0 RESPONSIBILITIES

4.1 Site managers will establish a procedure for consistently utilizing the
processes on Bechtel projects.

4.2 Foremen or supervisors are responsible for implementing the STARRT

process with respect to specific tasks assigned to employees and/or crews
on a daily basis.

4.3 The JHA may be initiated by project environmental, safety and health
personnel, however, the responsible field superintendent and field
engineer should be included in the development of each JHA. An ideal
time to generate the JHA would be during the job kickoff meeting when all
appropriate and involved personnel are present.

5.0 GUIDELINES FOR STARRT

5.1 Supervisors will ensure employee involvement in the STARRT process is

optimized by:

5.1.1 Ensuring all employees under his/her charge are trained in the
STARRT process.

5.1.2 Establishing a system to follow-up with all of his/her crews to verify the
STARRT process is being correctly implemented.

5.1.3 Requiring his/her employees to participate in an individual STARRT

review prior to the start of each shift for each new task.

5.2 Supervisors will discuss the hazards of the job with the employees to compile
information necessary to complete the STARRT tag.

5.3 Upon completion of the STARRT tag, supervisors will review the
requirements of the tag with the employees. The employees performing the
work and supervisor will sign the tag.

5.4 The tag will be displayed and available for review in the immediate work
area.

5.5 STARRT tags are to be returned to the supervisor and forwarded to the
Bechtel ES&H Office at the end of each shift or completion of the work task.
The supervisor is responsible to ensure tags are properly completed and
returned.

5.6 STARRT tags are to be reviewed for proper usage/completion by the ES&H
Supervisor and maintained on file in the Bechtel ES&H Office, for one month.

6.0 GUIDELINES FOR JOB HAZARD ANALYSIS (JHA)

6.1 The JHA may be included as part of a project work plan or work package
and the requirements of the JHA will be incorporated into hazardous work
permits (HWPs) as well as project and site-specific ES&H plans as
appropriate.

6.2 A JHA of specific jobs or operations is required for, but not limited to, the
following:

6.2.1 High risk jobs

6.2.2 New jobs or tasks that present unspecified or unknown hazards
6.2.3 Jobs or tasks involving new equipment, machinery or procedures
6.2.4 Major job categories that will be repeated frequently
6.2.5 Jobs or tasks that have historically experienced a repeated or
significant rate of accidents, injuries, exposures or near misses
6.2.6 Jobs involving environmental remediation of hazardous waste or
different types of projects that fall under the same regulatory
requirements which fall under the auspices of 29 CFR 1910.120
6.2.7 Jobs or tasks that, in the professional judgment of responsible
project ES&H personnel, require a formal JHA

6.3 Jobs or tasks are broken down into a series of successive steps or
activities. Required or anticipated tools and equipment for each step or
activity are to be included. All potential hazards within each step or
activity are identified. The following hazard categories should always be
considered for inclusion in the JHA:

6.3.1 Chemical exposures

6.3.2 Oxygen deficiency
6.3.3 Exposures to ionizing and non-ionizing radiation
6.3.4 Electrical hazards
6.3.5 Physical hazards
6.3.6 Fire and explosion
6.3.7 Temperature extremes
6.3.8 Excessive noise
6.3.9 Biological hazards

CORE PROCESSES SAFETY TASK ANALYSIS/ Rev 0
NORTH AMERICA JOB HAZARD ANALYSIS Page 5 of 10

6.4 Input should be solicited from multi-disciplinary professional staff for

hazard evaluation. This input should include safety, industrial hygiene,
health physics, and engineering personnel.

6.5 After all known, suspected, or potential hazards have been identified and
accident experience reviewed, a plan must be developed with solutions to
eliminate or control hazards.

6.6 The elimination or control of the hazard should be implemented first by

engineering methods, then by administrative methods and, as a last
resort, by the proper use of PPE.
