5.2.3 Rehabilitation and return to work
       All subcontractors must comply with the Principal Contractor’s rehabilitation and return to work policy for ill or injured
       workers whose injuries or illnesses occurred, or were otherwise aggravated, at the work site. This includes ensuring:
               The subcontractor and workers have access to a qualified rehabilitation and return to work coordinator (employee or
               outsourced);
               The subcontractor notifies the Principal Contractor as soon as possible after a worker sustains a potentially
               compensable injury or illness;
               The injured or ill worker is provided with suitable duties whenever possible;
               The subcontractor, or the subcontractor’s rehabilitation and return to work coordinator, makes regular contact with
               the injured worker to check on progress and actively assists in the worker’s rehabilitation; and
               The subcontractor provides the Principal Contractor with regular updates on the progress of the worker within the
               constraints of the confidentiality clauses of any relevant workers’ compensation legislation.



5.3 Fire, gas, leaks, toxic spills and bomb threats
       The nature and severity of the risk will be determined by the site evacuation coordinator in consultation with other relevant
       personnel to determine whether an evacuation is required;
       Small fires should be put out by trained personnel with first response fire fighting equipment;
       Larger fires, gas leaks, toxic spills and bomb threats may warrant an evacuation of the entire site or affected area of the site;
       and
       The Principal Contractor will ensure the first response fire fighting equipment, listed below, is available at strategic locations
       on site as designated by relevant signage.

The following procedures should be followed when using fire extinguishers:
       Warn everybody in the immediate vicinity;
       Ensure somebody has alerted the Fire Brigade;
       Instruct somebody to advise the fire evacuation coordinator;
       Determine the type of fire and exact location;
       Select the right type of extinguisher (refer to chart below);
       Be sure you know how to use the extinguisher;
       Where possible, keep the doorway at your back or behind you;
       Keep low to avoid smoke;
       Do not get too close to the fire;
       Direct extinguishing agent at the base of the fire, NOT at the smoke; and
       Directions for using a fire extinguisher can be easily recalled by remembering the PASS principle:
            1. PULL the pin
            2. AIM nozzle at affected area
            3. SQUEEZE the handle
            4. SWEEP the base of the fire
