Mill-specific Contractor Safety Orientation

STEVENS POINT MILL

2Confidential – Internal Use Only

Welcome

• This orientation highlights some of the main precautions and practices that are specific to the Stevens Point Mill. It is your responsibility to understand and demonstrate safe and environmentally sound work practices while at the Stevens Point Mill.

• If you have any questions, be sure to ask the Owner’s Representative who is your contact person responsible for the project you’re assigned to.


PARKING AND MILL ACCESS

• All vendors / contractors are expected to park their vehicles in the north parking lot and enter the mill through the main entrance unless directed otherwise.

• Each person must obtain an access control badge through the receptionist or your NewPage owner’s representative. You are expected to have your badge with you while on the mill premises.

• It is best to coordinate with the Owner’s Representative to obtain an access badge prior to your arrival. If this is not done, you can use the phone at the main entrance to either call our receptionist or the Owner’s Representative to gain access. There is a phone directory posted above the phone for your convenience.

• The person issuing you an access badge will ensure that your name is on our sign-

in log along with the number of your assigned access badge. You do not need to sign in or out as long as you use your access badge every time you enter and exit the plant.

• When you are done with your project at the Stevens Point Mill, you are required to sign out and give your access badge to our receptionist or put it in the “drop box” located in the main entrance vestibule.


Clothing

• Shirts must be solid (no fishnet type material) covering the entire torso with sleeves covering the shoulders.

• Shirt tails are to be tucked in.

• Pants shall be ankle length.

• Hair that extends past the collar shall be securely pinned up or secured in a hat or cap when in production, maintenance, Boilerhouse, lab, and warehousing areas.


EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

Alarms

• The Stevens Point Mill has a central alarm system with trumpet horns located throughout the plant and smaller alarms and strobe lights located in offices and conference rooms.

• We have six different coded alarm signals. Of the six alarms, you need to know the following three.• Our fire/medical/spill alarm is a continuous one second on, one second off blast.• Our evacuation alarm is a series of three short blasts.• Our tornado alarm is a steady blast that blows continuous for three minutes.

• A schematic drawing of the alarm signals are posted on safety bulletin boards in each department throughout the mill.



Emergency Entrances

• The Stevens Point Mill has designated four entrances as an Emergency Entrance.

• These emergency entrances are called the north (main) emergency entrance, the south emergency entrance, the west emergency entrance, and the east emergency entrance and are located accordingly around the plant.

• If you call 911, make certain two people are sent to the appropriate emergency entrance. One person will meet the police, and the other is to meet the ambulance or fire truck. Once at the emergency entrance, the person shall push the Emergency Vehicle Access button which will unlock all access-controlled doors and open all outside security gates. They shall also turn on the red flashing light located outside of the emergency entrance. This light helps guide the EMS to the correct entrance.



Minor Injury

• First Aid stations are located at:• Storeroom• PM34 Dry End Control Room• PM35 First Aid Room

• Contractors are asked to bring their own first aid supplies and provide their own first aid treatment.



Serious Injury

• If a serious injury occurs, there are two ways to get help. One is to call 911 to request an ambulance. If this is done, be sure to send two people to the appropriate emergency entrance. The second way to get help is to pull a fire alarm pull box. The person pulling the Fire Alarm shall stay at the pull station until a First Aid Attendant arrives and pertinent information is relayed.

• If there is blood on floors and/or equipment, you shall contact the Owner’s Representative who will ensure that trained blood borne pathogen personnel are notified for clean-up.



Fire

• To report a fire, pull a fire alarm pull box. The person pulling the fire alarm shall stay at the pull station until the Team Development Leader arrives and pertinent information if relayed.

• If you hear the fire alarm sound, be observant. If there is no apparent emergency in your area, continue to work being assured that we have a response team addressing the alarm.

Evacuation

• If the evacuation alarm is sounded, stop what you are doing, shut off tools and equipment and exit the building via the nearest evacuation route.

• Evacuation routes are posted throughout the mill.

• After exiting the building, meet in the north parking lot by the pole building in order to be accounted for.



Spill

• If you happen upon a chemical spill that you believe needs immediate attention, pull the fire alarm. The person pulling the fire alarm shall stay at the pull station until the Team Development Leader arrives and pertinent information if relayed.

• Be sure not to jeopardize your own safety.

Tornado

• If the tornado alarm sounds, immediately go to the nearest designated tornado shelter.

• You shall stay in the designated shelter until you get a verbal “all clear” from the Boilerhouse Operator or the Team Development Leader.

• The Stevens Point Mill has four different designated tornado shelters which are all marked with signs and also shown on the mill’s evacuation maps. Be sure you know where the nearest shelter is to your work area.


HOUSEKEEPING

• The Stevens Point Mill has four different colored hoppers. Orange hoppers are for trash. White hoppers are for Broke. Broke is the paper we manufacture that can go back into our process and used again. Green hoppers are for metal. Red hoppers are for co-mingled recyclables including #1 & #2 plastics, glass, and tin cans.

• It is extremely important that these hoppers contain only what they are intended for.

• Of particular concern is plastic. We need to ensure that plastic items are disposed of only in the orange trash hoppers or appropriate garbage cans. If plastic gets into our manufacturing process, it causes huge quality problems.

• Plastic includes, but not limited to, electrical tape, electrical tie wraps, pipe caps, potato chip bags, Ziploc and sandwich bags, shrink wrap, banding material, and the list goes on.

• If you see plastic items lying on the floor, please help us by picking it up and disposing of it properly.


TRADE SECRET POLICIES

• Access to the Stevens Point mill is granted with the understanding that all entrants respect and protect the confidentiality of any information gathered at the mill.

• All photographs taken on premises must be approved by the appropriate management and an approval form must accompany the vendor during the act of taking photos. All photographs must be viewed by designated mill management and approved prior to leaving the mill premise.

• Under no circumstances are photos to be taken of operating screens, work stations, and items of a similar nature.
