A hypergol technician didn't follow requirements and
caused a major fuel spill and was burned. A person using a tool didn't follow the requirement
to have it tethered. The tool fell 16 stories to the floor.
Fortunately no one was hurt. Two employees spilled a caustic battery electrolyte
on their hands. The batteries hadn't been through qualification
testing. There were no requirements to prevent the technicians
from working with unqualified batteries. 1. Who must follow this handbook? This handbook applies to anyone at JSC or JSC field
sites, unless exempted in a specific chapter. For this
handbook, "JSC" includes all JSC sites in the
Houston, Texas, area such as Ellington Field and the Sonny
Carter Training Facility. The handbook applies to operations
involving JSC personnel or equipment at non-JSC locations,
including foreign countries. See Chapter 113, Paragraph
5, for more information on following standards at non-JSC
locations. 1. The following table tells you who must follow
this handbook. If you . . .
Then you must follow . . .
Are a federal employee This handbook unless you work at a site that involves
unique military equipment and operations Are a JSC contractor This handbook as called out in your contract's statement
of work Work at a JSC remote site (such as White Sands Test
Facility) as a civil service employee or contractor
employee All chapters that don't exempt you and local requirements
that meet the intent of any chapter that exempts you Are a non NASA or non contract employee This handbook while on JSC property 1. If you are a federal employee working in a private
employer's facility, you are covered by the JSC safety
and health program. Although NASA may not have the authority
to correct hazardous conditions in a private sector workplace,
NASA must make sure your working conditions are safe and
healthful. NASA does this by administrative controls,
personal protective equipment, or your withdrawal from
the private employer's facility. 2. If you are a private employer, neither Executive Order
12196, "Occupational Safety and Health Programs for
Federal Employees," nor this handbook relieves you
or your employees of any rights or responsibilities under
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). 2. What about field sites? This handbook applies to you if you are at any JSC
field site like White Sands Test Facility unless specific
chapters exempt you. 1. If a chapter exempts you, you must develop your
own requirements that meet the intent of that chapter. 2. The local Quality Assurance, Reliability, and Safety
Office or equivalent will carry out the responsibilities
of the Occupational Safety and Quality Assurance Branch
at your site. 3. How should I use this handbook? You don't need to read this entire handbook. You need
to know and follow only the safety and health requirements
which apply to your job. This handbook contains several features to help you
find the requirements you need: 1. Table of contents and index 2. Subject index 3. Tables in the first chapter of each part that tell
you which chapters apply to what jobs 4. Chapter titles 5. Chapter introductions that tell you who has to follow
that chapter 6. online version at http:\\www4.jsc.nasa.gov\safety\home\safeman.htm 4. What parts of this handbook must I follow? You must follow any part of this handbook that applies
to your job. The table below tells you which parts apply

or health requirements of my organization? This handbook takes precedence over all other JSC documentation
in safety and health except for more stringent requirements
that individual JSC organizations develop. If your organization
has more stringent requirements than are in this handbook,
you must follow them. If you find any less stringent JSC
requirements than are in this handbook, bring them to
the immediate attention of the Director of JSC's Safety,
Reliability, and Quality Assurance (SR&QA) Office. 7. How do I request changes to this handbook? Submit a written change request to the Occupational
Safety and Quality Assurance Branch that includes what
you want to change and why. You may use an informal letter
or electronic mail. The Occupational Safety and Quality
Assurance Branch will review your request and tell you
its decision to approve, modify, or disapprove your request.
You will find the change process in Attachment 100A of
Appendix 1B. 8. How do the chapter and paragraph numbers work in
this handbook? Chapter numbers have 3 digits. The first is the part
it is contained in. The second and third are the sequence
in that part. For instance, the first chapter in Part
2 is 200. The second chapter in Part 3 is 301. Paragraphs are numbered within a chapter. Subparagraphs
are designated with lower case letters and further divided
by bullets. To cite a paragraph, or subparagraph, use
the chapter number, and paragraph number, and subparagraph
letter. For example, this paragraph is 100.7. If a subparagraph
were involved, you would cite it as 101.2.a. Other Pages:Plain–Language Examples Before–and–After Comparisons Government Examples Legal Examples Award–Winners Humor Home|About Us|Contact Us|Privacy and Other Policies|USA.gov|HowTo.gov|Usability.gov
