Rationale for on Campus Activity

This program provides graduates with the theory and practical skills necessary to enter the Piping trades. The piping trades include but are not limited to: Gasfitter, Plumber, Sprinkler fitter and Steamfitter/Pipefitter.

Gasfitter - design, installs, repair and maintain gas fired appliances, equipment and distribution piping systems. Advances in modern appliance controls technology require gas fitters to develop strong electrical, computer and trouble shooting skills.

Plumber work with domestic hot and cold water, drainage systems, and hydronic heating systems. Many plumbers hold gas tickets because of the widespread use of natural gas in British Columbia.

Sprinkler Fitter install, alter, and repair automatic, deluge, or open sprinklers; foam, fog, and carbon dioxide systems; wet or dry standpipes; inside first aid and hose pipe systems, private fire hydrant systems, fire pumps, and all related equipment

Steamfitter/Pipefitter install, alter, maintain, and repair piping systems that convey low and high pressure steam, hot water, air, fuel gases, fuel, and finely divided solids.

The program emphasizes a hands-on approach to training, where experience gained in the workshop is focused on industry practice. The necessary theoretical component is integrated into the program to complement and enhance the practical work.

Since the Covid-19 pandemic, all theory courses have been delivered online. There are 1 to 4 weeks practical activities per level of training for students to complete at BCIT Piping shop and labs to ensure our students have solid hand-on knowledge and job-ready skills. The location of the shop / lab activities / occupancy:

• NE-06 Shop 32 Students • NE-06 Yard 16 Students • Gas Lab 6 Students • Wet Lab 8 Students • Computer Lab 8 Students • NE-01 284/285 16 Students

The hours of training and operation: • 7:30 am – 2:00 pm

GENERAL TRANSMISSION PREVENTION GUIDELINES

EDUCATION

Post infection control practices and physical distancing posters. Posters available on OHS ShareSpace.

Identify the nearest handwashing location to students and ensure it is stocked with soap and paper towel.

Frequently remind students to avoid face touching during class and to wash hands before and after class (and during when possible).

Advise staff and students to stay home if sick. Develop and communicate accommodations for students in isolation/quarantine.

Promote no eating during classes/in class rooms.

Ensure all staff have completed the online BCIT Pandemic Exposure Control Plan Training.

PHYSICAL DISTANCING

Ensure that class rooms are set up to allow 2-metre physical distancing between all occupants, unless controls in place.

Determine and implement class/room capacities in order to maintain 2-metre physical distancing.

Set up demonstration/instruction areas to allow for students and staff to maintain 2-metre physical distancing. With tape, chalk, etc.

Set up physical distancing (with tape, etc.) for the use of any shared tools/equipment for the class.

CONTROLLING COMMON TOUCH POINTS

Do not provide students with physical handout papers/forms, pens, and other common writing/learning tools unless controls in place.

Remove any unnecessary common touch points, objects, or self-serve items (i.e. hearing protection, gloves).

For any class-provided tools/equipment – if possible ensure each student has their own dedicated items.

Identify all tools/equipment that must be shared be all students.

Develop and post transmission prevention and/or sanitization procedures for all shared items and common classroom touchpoints.

Ensure that cleaning supplies are provided and students are instructed on how to correctly clean/sanitize, if applicable.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPEMENT (PPE)

Instruct students on how to safely use, remove, and dispose/clean (as applicable) any required PPE for the class. Note: PPE (gloves, respirators, face shields, etc.) should only be recommended/required for pandemic exposure control if best practices (physical distancing, hand washing) are impossible to maintain. Please contact [email protected] for further guidance regarding PPE.

Physical Distancing Control Measures To ensure Physical Distancing during shop/lab activities, instructor will:

• Arrange work areas to maintain physical distancing. • Plan class activities such that they can be done while distancing. • Arrange class to maintain distancing keeping in mind walk ways to work stations, hand

washing (see Appendix 6), and shared tools/equipment (see Appendix 9). • Packages of materials will be prepared by instructors to be distributed to each student on

the first day of in class instruction. • PPE requirements will be determined by shop activity and distributed on first day of

instruction. • Students will be shown how to properly maintain all PPE. • Masks to be worn if social distancing is a concern, but multiple demonstrations to smaller

groups and the use cameras and monitors will be the first level of protection (see Appendix 8).

• Only one student at a time to access washroom.

Tools Pick-Up/Drop-Off Procedures Please identify the safety measures and procedures for the picking up and returning of equipment, tools, etc. I.e., a scheduling process, log sheet, etc.

• Each student has his/her own set of tools. If tools or equipment needs to be shared, the assigned cleaning staff will sanitize the tools and equipment after each use. Students will not have access to cleaning or sanitizing products for tools and equipment.

Appendix 15 Tool Crib Attendant Activities – Pandemic Procedures

BCIT SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURE

Tool Crib Attendant Activities – Pandemic Procedures

Date Issued: 2020/04/09 By: John Di Bella, OHS Coordinator Version Date: 2020/04/09 Version 1.0

BACKGROUND As of March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization has declared the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. In response, BCIT has worked to move teaching and instruction activities to be done remotely, to reduce the number of staff and students on campus and help prevent transmission of the virus within our community. However, several programs at BCIT require in-person attendance of staff and student. The purpose of this procedure is to provide guidance to BCIT Tool Crib Attendants on how to maintain tool crib operations while reducing exposure risk.

PURPOSE As COVID-19 spreads through direct (coughing/sneezing) or indirect (touching contaminated surfaces then touching your face) contact with water droplets produced by an infected individual, this procedure focuses on measures to prevent transmission through this method. The procedures listed are methods to maintain physical distancing, reducing touch points between individuals, and disinfecting non-disposable tools and hard surfaces.

RESPONSIBILITIES Employer • The employer is responsible for providing the equipment and tools necessary for their staff

to be able to perform their job duties safely, as outlined by this procedure.

Supervisor • The supervisor is responsible for reviewing all safe work procedures and practices with

their employees. • The supervisor is responsible for investigating unsafe work conditions and work refusals

with their employees. • Provide approved disinfecting products to your staff as needed.

o See BCIT Cleaning Product list or use a product on a Health Canada list.

Employee • Follow the safety and exposure provisions outlined by this procedure. • Do not perform job if they cannot be performed as outlined by this procedure. • Report unsafe conditions or work refusals to your supervisor.
