                                   WHSMP:01 – Work Health & Safety Management Plan
                                                                                                              Version: 9.2



            Provide clip on wide brimmed visors for hard hats
            Encourage when possible to work in shaded areas.
            Train personnel on how to prevent heat exhaustion, recognize the signs and to take regular
             breaks when physically exerting themselves.
During extreme hot weather conditions HB in conjunction with all subcontractors on site will ensure the
following is considered:
            nature of works being undertaken;
            duration of exposure to the heat;
            workers who raise safety issues as a result of working in hot weather conditions may be
             relocated to cooler shaded work areas on site (where reasonably practicable). This process will
             be undertaken in consultation with the Site HSE Committee

      13.3 UV Protection
Harmful to the skin, Ultra-violet (UV) radiation is emitted by the sun. Causing sunburn and often leading to
the development of potentially cancerous melanomas. In an effort to protect all workers HB recommend all
personnel follow the guidelines listed below:
For best protection from the sun, a combination of sun protection measures is recommended, including:
            Seeking shade.
            Wearing protective clothing that covers the arms and legs as well as the body.
            Wearing a hard hat with shade brim to protect face and neck.
            Wearing wraparound tinted safety glasses.
            Using SPF30+ or SPF 50+ broad spectrum sunscreen, this should be reapplied every 2 hours.

      13.4 Working Alone
In the event a worker is required to work alone a specific SWMS must be submitted to the Project Manager
for approval. It is essential the worker is able to operate safely and responsibly with limited infrastructure
and support in all climates.
The person must be provided with a suitable vehicle, where appropriate, and suitable equipment to work
alone (including communications and emergency equipment).
A person working alone must be competent to:

            Carry out all work activities safely without direct supervision.
            Manage events that are likely to occur when working alone.
            Follow procedures to obtain emergency assistance if required.
            Follow procedures to establish regular contact with a nominated person at 3 hour intervals,
             until they returned to site.
This is very unlikely to happen and only under extreme situations may this occur.

      13.5 Wet Weather Procedure
After periods of wet weather, HB Supervisor personnel and Subcontractor Supervisors/Representatives will
inspect all work areas prior to workers commencing / re-commencing works on site. The inspection will cover
all work areas and access ways and determine whether the areas are safe to open or whether dewatering is
