The safety manual, like any safety policy, is an ever-changing document. When new and improved ideas are discovered, proper incorporations are made for the benefit of our employees and the company. Stop-Work Program All employees are subjected to a Stop-Work program. If at any time an employee sees or is involved in a task in which an unsafe or dangerous condition arises or safety is not understood, it is the employee’s responsibility and duty to stop the task and aid in mitigating the dangers present. Zero Accident Philosophy Our company is dedicated to a Zero-Accident philosophy. We believe that all accidents are preventable first and foremost by means of engineering or administrative controls and lastly by the use of personal protective equipment. Drug/Alcohol Screening Program Our employees are subject to drug and alcohol screening for the following reasons: Pre-employment (Always) Reasonable Suspicion Random Post-Incident (Always) Customer Screening Programs Orientation Program All new hires are required to go through a safety orientation. This orientation is a PowerPoint presentation complete with pictures and videos that covers the basics of safety policies adopted by the company. Forms accompany the presentation at various points after each topic is discussed and the employees provide a signature and date as a pledge of understanding what is expected of them. There is also a form declaring that employees have received a copy of the company’s most recent safety manual edition and that they are responsible for knowing and abiding by all policies. Job Safety Analysis (JSAs) Each rig is equipped with a set of JSA’s for various rig operations. The JSA’s were written directly from OSHA’s website regarding oil and gas well drilling and servicing. JSA’s are used as guidance for Toolbox Talk safety meetings. Paper Work for the Hands Toolbox Talks – Each crew is required to complete Toolbox Talks (JSAs) in which each member has the opportunity to provide hazards and protective measures regarding the shift’s tasks.
