<big>Reminder to all ENG staff:</big><br>
<br>
Work Planning tools should be used to provide timely updates
especially when utilities, infrastructure or<br>
hardware is altered which affects other workgroups. <br>
<br>
<br>
- All workers should be properly trained and authorized to conduct
assigned work. Work control documents that contain "feedback and
improvement" sections should be reviewed more thoroughly when
resuming work to ensure that all hazards are controlled.<br>
<br>
- If the work control process requires specific disciplines to be
present for pre-briefings, walk-downs, etc., then work should not
commence until they have had a chance to properly and thoroughly
review the job.<br>
<br>
- The proper equipment has to be utilized for the work. If the
proper equipment cannot be located, then work shall not proceed
until it is made available.<br>
<br>
- Communication between management and workers needs to be clear and
concise. If work is planned to be completed in an urgent manner,
then all risks and hazards introduced by the urgency must be fully
identified, understood and controlled.<br>
<br>
- Stop Work authority is a control available to all workers to
prevent mishaps. All workers must be vigilant in stopping work if
there are newly- recognized hazards that have not been properly
controlled.<br>
