Safety Manual Policy Statement

Purpose The Auto Warehousing Company’s (AWC) Safety Manual is to provide all associates with written health and safety policies and procedures for promoting a safe workplace for our associates, and to promote safety consciousness. The safety and health program has been established to integrate safety and health measures into every task. It is the policy of AWC to operate in a manner which protects all associates from injuries or illnesses.

Responsibilities

Corporate Safety The Corporate Safety Department will review each facility's goals and objectives on a periodic basis to ensure implementation of the Safety Program. They will provide consultation, facility auditing, training, document/policy/procedure development, and team participation.

Management Management's responsibility is the prevention of injury and illness accidents for all issues under their span of control. Management will provide direction and full support to supervision and associates regarding all safety and health procedures, job training and hazard elimination practices. Management will keep fully informed on safety and health issues throughout the company.

Supervision Supervisors are directly responsible for supervising their workers, and for developing proper attitudes toward safety and health in themselves and in those they supervise. This will include training on safe procedures and safe work practices to ensure that all operations are performed with the utmost regard for the safety and health of all personnel involved, including themselves. They will enforce company rules and take immediate corrective action to eliminate hazardous conditions and practices, as safety cannot be sacrificed for any reason. Supervisors will be held accountable for safety and health issues.

Safety Committee The committee's purpose is to bring workers and management together to promote safety and health in the workplace in a non-adversarial, cooperative effort. It consists of management and associate representatives who have an interest in safety and health. The committee is responsible for making recommendations on how to improve safety and health in the workplace. They have the responsibility to define problems; identify hazards and recommend corrective actions; and to help identify associate safety training needs.

Associates Each associate, regardless of their position in the company, will cooperate with all aspects of AWC's safety and health program. Including, but not limited to:

1. Accidents or injuries must be reported immediately to your supervisor.

2. Required personal protective equipment (PPE) must be worn by all associates, no exceptions.

3. Report hazardous conditions & safety and health concerns to your supervisor immediately.

4. Associates support the safety committee, who will accept any suggestions.

If all parties do their part to ensure work place safety and health, we all benefit. No job is so important that we cannot take time to complete it safely.

Operating Rules & Regulations

Safety Orientation

Conducting Orientation All individuals who are conducting New Hire Orientation at each facility must complete a New Hire Safety Requirements sign off form. This form outlines the requirements of each item that needs to be addressed for all newly hired associates.

New Associates: Before Beginning Work Before a new associate starts work, supervisors must distribute a copy of Auto Warehousing Company Safety Policies which includes: Safe Work Rules, Right to Know Informational Packet, and have all new associates watch the Hazardous Communication video. After receipt of information and completion of video associates must complete the Right to Know Acknowledgment Form. All associates must also be trained on the proper use, location, and posters of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) pertinent to their position and sign the PPE Acknowledgment Form.

AWC provides an online video on Hazardous Communication to be used for this training along with the HazCom trainer packet. All associates are required to complete the Hazardous Communications training prior to working at any facility. After the training and video, associates must complete the Right to Know Acknowledgment Form. The forms are filed in the associate's personnel file at the facility. Verbal training, instruction, and handout, if available, must accompany all training videos.

All associates must watch the Driver Safety video and complete the accompanying video quiz with a score of 80 percent or higher. Associates hired for positions in rail must also watch the Rail Safety video and complete the accompanying video quiz with a score of 80 percent or higher. Individuals will not be able to begin working if an 80 percent is not achieved on the video quizzes.

At the time of hiring, in addition to the HazCom training, associates must be trained in all other job specific safety training as established for the position e.g. Affected Lockout Tagout, Evacuation Procedures, Emergency Preparedness, 3-Point of Contact, etc.

Annual Updates On an annual basis: all required training must take place. A list of required training is located on the Safety SharePoint. A training sign off sheet must be signed by all associates with the forms filed in the associates’ personnel files and a copy submitted online to the Safety SharePoint training library.1

Please call the Corporate Safety Department if you have questions regarding the required material.

Canadian Facilities In Canada, the Safety Committee is referred to as the Joint health and safety committee (JHSC). The JHSC is comprised of at least two persons, who represent the workers and the employer at a workplace. Their primary role is to identify workplace health and safety concerns and bring them to the attention of the employer.

Committees must be co-chaired by two members. One of the co-chairs will be chosen by the members who represent workers, the other by members who exercise managerial functions. The names and work locations of the members will be posted in the workplace.

The JHSC must have at least one worker and one management person serve as certified members of a workplace Joint Health and Safety Committee (JHSC). This certification involves training in health and safety law, and the identification, assessment and control of hazards.

Objectives & Duties The JHSC has various duties, including:

1. Identifying actual and potential hazards in the workplace

2. Obtaining information from the company relating to health and safety in the workplace

3. Inspecting the workplace monthly

A. Worker committee members must select an Associate member in their group to inspect the workplace

B. The member should be a certified if possible.

4. Being consulted about and having a member representing workers be present at the beginning of any health and safety-related testing in the workplace

Page 20: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 3 Page 13

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Injuries The company must notify the JHSC of lost time injuries caused by accident, explosion, fire or incident of workplace violence at the workplace, and must report any occupational illnesses of which he/she has knowledge. Where a person is killed or critically injured from any cause at a workplace the employer must immediately notify the Ministry and the JHSC.

Members, who represent workers, must designate one or more worker members to investigate incidents in which a worker is killed or critically injured4. Following the investigation, all findings must be reported to the committee. They can inspect:

1. Where the incident occurred

2. Relevant machine, device or thing

3. But not disturb the scene pending a Ministry of Labour investigation.

Work Refusal A committee member, who represents workers, must be present during the employer or supervisor’s investigation of a work refusal. If the issue is not resolved the Ministry of Labour must be notified.

The Ministry of Labour has published: A Guide for Joint Health and Safety Committees and Representatives in the Workplace.

4 A person is “critically injured” for the purposes of the Act if he or she has an injury of a serious nature that places life

in jeopardy, produces unconsciousness, results in substantial loss of blood, involves the fracture of a leg or arm but not a finger or toe, involves the amputation of a leg, arm, hand or foot but not a finger or toe, consists of burns to a major portion of the body, or causes the loss of sight in an eye.

Claims Management Injury and illness losses due to hazards are needless, costly, and preventable. Managers must instruct associates to report all on-the-job injuries and accidents to their supervisor immediately after they occur.

Accident Investigations Accident investigations are fact finding exercises to identify necessary changes for the prevention of future incidents. Properly conducted accident investigations are also a positive associate morale booster because it reinforces management's safety commitment. Accident investigation preparation and questions can be found on the Safety SharePoint.

As part of the planning process, determine who will be responsible for accident investigations (managers or supervisors). Make this selection before you have an incident. The individual assigned needs to be trained in accident investigating.

Conduct investigations on all accidents and near misses.

1. Identify the Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How.

2. Identify the two types of causes. The first type is the most readily available reason for the accident (sometimes there is more than one). It is what some refer to as the surface cause. The second type and potentially more dangerous is the root cause.

Step 1: Gathering the Facts

1. Identify what happened and who was involved.

A. Interview the worker and any other witnesses as soon as reasonably possible. It may be that your first interviews will be with witnesses other than the injured worker. However, interview the injured worker as soon as possible and, if possible, at the accident site. You will want to collect the facts while memories are fresh and the evidence is still available. The more witnesses discuss the matter among themselves the cloudier the memories become.

2. Conducting the Interview:

A. The interview should be private and non-threatening.5

B. Put the witness at ease by explaining the purpose of the interview and the value of their input.

i. Listen. Let the witness talk. Ask open ended questions and always ask "why- as a follow-up question

ii. Take detailed notes.

iii. Restate the facts and events to clarify your understanding.

Step 2: Analyzing the Facts

1. Pictures should be taken before vehicles are moved.

2. For more instructions you can refer to the Photography Guidelines page on the Safety SharePoint

3. List the events as they occurred with the causation factors.

4. Determine if this type of incident has happened in the past. Evaluate why past corrections were inadequate to prevent a recurrence.

5 Watch for factors involving fatigue or home problems that may have carried over to work. Also be alert for problems

in supervision, management attitudes, and ask "Was safety compromised for the sake of production?"

Page 22: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 4 Page 15

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

5. Consider all factors. Be sure you have found the root cause(s) as well as the surface cause(s).

A. Surface Cause(s) of an accident are the hazardous Practices or Conditions that clearly allowed the event to take place. They are readily apparent and appear early in the investigation. If post-accident hazard corrections reduce or eliminate only surface causes, similar accidents will most likely continue to plague the workplace.

B. Root Cause(s) of an accident are not so easily uncovered. They are the Underlying contributing factor(s) that nurture hazardous conditions or practices. Only by correcting root causes will long-term solutions happen.

Step 3: The Recommendation

1. The recommendation should identify the hazard(s) and ways to eliminate the hazard or, if elimination is not possible, reduce the exposure. There are three methods of addressing these concerns:

A. Engineering Controls: Eliminating or reducing the existing hazards through equipment redesign. Clearly the most desirable choice.

B. Administrative Controls: Changing practices, procedures, or policies to eliminate or reduce exposure to the hazard. This is less desirable because the hazard still exists, and you are dealing only with the human factor.

C. Personal Protective Equipment: Should be used in conjunction with administrative controls when exposure to a hazard cannot be eliminated or adequately reduced.

2. The recommendation should also contain the following elements:

A. Identify what actions have been taken

B. Identify if disciplinary action is required

C. Offer options in your recommendation

D. Identify how your suggestions will improve overall operations

E. Identify the costs associated with each option

F. Prioritize the recommendations

G. Identify the benefits associated with each option

H. Suggest corrections for addressing root causes and the obvious surface causes.

I. Compare the direct/indirect cost for each associated accident with the cost of correction

Step 4: Management Follow-Up

1. All process corrective actions are followed up on the safety call, all changes are documented, and audited to ensure the procedures are still in place.

A. Management and Corporate Safety will determine if the corrective action was appropriate and if it solved the problem.

When an Injury Occurs A 601 injury report must be uploaded to the Safety SharePoint within 24 hours.

1. The Terminal Manager is required to notify OSHA when an associate is killed on the job or suffers a work-related overnight hospitalization, amputation, or loss of an eye.

A. A fatality must be reported within 8 hours.

Page 23: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 4 Page 16

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

B. An in-patient hospitalization overnight, amputation, or eye loss must be reported within 24 hours.

Implement Incident Plan Manager or designated supervisor will immediately investigate the incident to determine the cause. Use the following technique.

1. Gather the information

A. Secure the scene: Place barriers or post a guard.

i. Document the scene: Take initial statements, record observations, take photographs, review records, take measurements, and draw sketches.

An AWC 601 Report must be filled out the same day as the injury.

Witness statements can be taken immediately on the company Statement of Incident.

2. Analyze the Facts

A. Reconstruct the Accident: Numbered step-by-step format.

B. Conduct cause Analysis: Determine surface and root causes.

C. Develop Recommendations: Engineering controls, work practice controls, administrative controls, personal protective equipment (PPE).

3. Write the Report (601 Report and any local forms)

A. Background: Answer (who, what, when, why, where)

B. Description: Use as much detail as possible and only the facts.

C. Findings: List surface and root causes.

D. Corrective Actions: Include short and long term fixes.

E. Summary: Contrast costs of fix and accident costs; list human & economic benefits of fix.

Injuries are reported on the electronic 601 Report, located on the Safety SharePoint or on your facility’s Safety Tablet, "First Report of Injury Form" (if a doctor/hospital visit was required). Turn reports into the Terminal Manager with all supporting documents collected.

The facility completes the 601 report on the Safety SharePoint or on your facility’s Safety Tablet and submits it. Do not wait for one or two items of additional information, you may add any extra information later.

In addition to filing a 601 Report, managers are required to file any state/provincial forms (e.g. First Report of Injury), if the associate receives medical treatment or has time off from work. These documents should also be attached to the 601 Report.

Corporate Safety will generate a safety alert to be distributed electronically to all locations.

Further Instructions for Supervisor and Associate:

1. In case of serious injury or illness an EMS service should be called. If none are available associate should be taken immediately for treatment by the Supervisor or Manager (with a First Aid trained person to assist).

2. Less serious injuries can be evaluated by the supervisor that is First Aid trained and taken for medical treatment by a supervisor.

Page 24: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 4 Page 17

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

3. Time Loss: In the case of time loss, an injured/ill associate is expected to return to work on the date indicated by the attending physician. Procedures are set forth in the Return to Work plan and should be followed.

4. If the original time loss is extended the associate must give notification to the company of the estimated time loss and expected return to work date. Notification should be given immediately upon the associate learning of the estimated date(s), and the doctor's written extension should be brought or sent to the Terminal Manager.

5. The associate must contact the Terminal Manager at least one day prior to reporting for work, so they can be added to the day’s work schedule.

6. Upon return to work, an injured/ill associate must provide a medical release signed by the attending physician. At the lime of treatment, the attending physician may recommend or require certain work-related restrictions. Based on the extent and nature of the physicians recommended restrictions the company will make every

7. Accommodation possible to allow the associate to continue to work, either at their regular job or a modified job.

8. All discussions and correspondence must be documented and kept on the Workers Comp Calendar and in the associate’s personnel file.

Vehicular Accidents All vehicular accidents, regardless of the severity, must have a 600 Report completed on the Safety SharePoint. The report must be start within 24 hours of the incident.

The management or designated safety representative will immediately investigate the accident to determine the cause using the following technique.

1. Gather the information

A. Secure the scene: Place barriers or post a guard, do not move the vehicle.

B. Document the scene: Take initial statements, record observations, take photographs, review records, take measurements, and draw sketches.

2. Analyze the Facts

Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) The Occupational Safety and Health ACT (OSHA) established laws that set standards for the maintenance of safe and healthful working conditions. Specific standards must be observed, and it requires Auto Warehousing Company to keep records and file reports of work-related deaths, illnesses, injuries, and hazards

Recording Injuries An important part of OSHA's record keeping process is workers compensation injuries. The company is required by law to record all workers compensation injuries on OSHA's Form 300. The company is required to provide injury and illness data to OSHA annually. All reporting must be done electronically. The required forms and dates are as follows:

1. Prior years OSHA Forms 300, 300A and 301 or comparable AWC form(s)

2. Must be submitted by March 2 for the prior year.

3. The Form 300 (Bureau of labor Statistics Log and Summary of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses) can be found on the Safety SharePoint under OSHA 300 Logs.

Displaying Previous Year’s Incidents The law requires that from February 1 to April 30, of each year, the summary side (only) of Form 300A be posted, displaying the previous year's incidents. It must be signed, dated and totaled. It must be posted in a conspicuous place for the entire month. OSHA can fine AWC if these procedures are not strictly followed.

Other OSHA health and safety regulations and/or information is available through your Workers Compensation Insurance Carrier, the local OSHA office, and Corporate Safety.

OSHA Inspection

Before the OSHA Inspector’s Arrival Auto Warehousing Company does not require OSHA inspectors to get a warrant, however if the Manager or an authorized representative is not at the facility we may request them to wait a reasonable length of time until the Manager arrives (1 hour is reasonable).

1. Refer to the “In Case of OSHA” guide located on the Safety SharePoint for more detailed instructions

2. Keep a positive, personable, and professional manner.

Gate guard(s) and receptionist(s) need to be informed as to whom to contact if an OSHA inspector arrives. They will introduce themselves and expect to be escorted to the initial representative so the proceedings can be started. Inspectors come out for several reasons including it is your turn for a random inspection or a complaint was made.

Canadian Facilities

Occupational Health & Safety Act – Ontario The Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) is Ontario's cornerstone legislation for workplace health and safety. Other contributing legislation includes the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act (WSIA), Part II of which deals with the prevention of occupational injury and disease and the Human Rights Code, which often has to be considered in dealing with OHS issues. Both OHSA and WSIA are available along with all of Ontario's other Acts and regulations at the e-Laws website.

The main purpose of the Act is to protect workers from health and safety hazards on the job. It sets out duties for all workplace parties and rights for workers. It establishes procedures for dealing with workplace hazards and provides for enforcement of law where compliance has not been achieved voluntarily. Fundamental to the successful working of OHSA is the workplace Internal Responsibility System (IRS).

WSIB Forms All required injury reporting forms can be located on the WSIB website. Any associate injured must be provided with copies of all forms after their completion.

Worker's Report of Injury/Disease (Form 6)

The associate completes and returns the Worker's Report of Injury/Disease (Form 6) to their employer. The employer will then submit the Form 6 to the WSIB.

Employer’s Report of Injury/Disease (Form 7)

Within three (3) days of the date of the injury, the employer must complete the Employer’s Report of Injury/Disease (Form 7). The Form 7 will provide the details of the incident, wages, and contact information. This form can be submitted via email or e-filed.

Functional Abilities Form (FAF)

The employer provides the associate the Functional Abilities Form (FAF) to give to a medical professional for completion. The medical professional will provide a list of restrictions or functional abilities clearing the associate to modified or full duty return to work. This form should be completed at least bi-weekly or when essential for an associate to return to work.

Health Professional’s Report (Form 8)

A medical professional will complete the Health Professional’s Report (Form 8) during the initial visit of the injured associate. Functional abilities can be listed on this form as well. The medical professional submits the form to the WSIB and the employer receives a copy of the Form 8. Injured associates must also bring the job description of the easiest job to the treating physician.

Hazard Communication (HazCom) Program Auto Warehousing Company’s management is committed to the prevention of occurrence or happenings which result in injury and/or illnesses; and to complying with all applicable federal and state/provincial health and safety rules.

The HazCom program consists of two sections:

1. Written Hazard Communication Program that includes container labeling and Safety Data

Sheets (SDS).

2. Associate Information & Training Program.

The written Hazard Communication Program is designed to outline the manner in which AWC will meet its obligations under the law. The associate training program is designed to educate each associate about chemical hazards that they might be exposed to in the workplace. This written program will be available to all associates on the Safety SharePoint.

AWC has created policies, materials, training, SDS’s, and a HazCom video accessible online through the Safety SharePoint.

Hazardous Chemicals For the purposes of the Hazard Communication Program "hazardous chemicals" are any chemicals that pose a physical hazard or a health hazard to our associates through ingestion, inhalation or absorption. Physical hazards are reactions that could occur if chemicals are handled or stored improperly. This could result in a fire, explosion, and/or toxic gas release. Health hazards are health effects caused directly by the chemicals themselves, not an injury resulting from a reaction. All chemical materials can cause health problems under the wrong conditions.

Hazards will be controlled by the following actions:

1. Elimination/Substitution: Eliminate or substitute chemicals you currently use with less harmful ones

2. Engineering Controls: Ventilation or containment

3. Administrative Controls: Administrative controls are any procedure that significantly limits daily exposure by control or manipulation of the work schedule or manner in which work is performed. Administrative controls are not as effective as engineering controls but many are quick and inexpensive to implement.

4. Training and information

5. Signage

6. Maintain equipment to prevent leaks and releases

7. Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)

8. Worker rotation

9. Scheduling tasks when chemical use is low

10. PPE (last resort)

Container Labeling The department at the facility receiving any hazardous chemicals or products will verify that all containers received for use have the following information clearly marked and visible before us:

1. Product identifier.

Page 29: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 5 Page 22

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

2. Signal Words

3. Hazard Statements.

4. First Aid Statement

5. Precautionary Statements and Pictograms, and

6. Supplier Information.

It is the policy of Auto Warehousing Company that no container will be released for use until the above information is verified, present, and adequate. This will be monitored and audited during Corporate Safety Site Visits.

The supervisor in each section will ensure that all secondary containers (such as a pail, can, or spray bottle) are labeled with either the original manufacturer's label or with a GHS compliant labels which identify the chemical and list appropriate hazard warning.

GHS compliant labels can be obtained from the Corporate Safety Department by following the GHS label request process:

1. A Terminal Manager or individual designated by the Terminal Manager will request a GHS label through the Safety SharePoint utilizing the GHS Label Request form.

A. The chemical/product name and manufacturer are required.

B. Only products that have been submitted through SharePoint as being present at the facility through the Chemical Update forms will be eligible for GHS label creation.

C. A maximum of 25 labels per product during 1 week will be issued at a time.

2. Corporate Safety receives a daily summary of all GHS label requests.

A. All GHS labels are processed within 1 week of receipt.

B. GHS labels are shipped to requesting facilities with the next scheduled overnight shipment to the facility.

It should be noted that:

1. Consumer products are exempt from labeling: (e.g. cleansers. hand soap, air freshener, etc.)

2. Portable containers are exempt from labeling if the person who fills it has direct contact with it the entire time

Safety Data Sheets (SDS) Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are supplied by manufacturers and distributors of hazardous chemicals. The SDS will contain detailed information about a product's hazardous constituents, health hazard, safety precautions and use restrictions. AWC will have all SDS for each hazardous chemical an associate will use at the facility. Copies of the SDS will be kept online. The online SDS database will be accessible on most office and shop computers. Every facility will have signs posted with a web address for associates to have the opportunity to access the library via the Internet or on a mobile device.

Whenever the employer receives a new or revised SDS that could impact an associate’s health, the employer must inform associates within 30 days after receipt. OSHA requires: “Such information shall be provided to associates on a timely basis, not to exceed 30 days after receipt, if the new information indicates significantly increased risks to, or measures necessary to protect, associate health as compared to those stated on a material safety data sheet previously provided.”

Page 30: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 5 Page 23

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Management at the facility is responsible for notifying Corporate Safety of any new chemicals and/or products brought onto AWC property for any associate of AWC to utilize by following this process:

1. A new chemical/product must be added to the SharePoint utilizing the Chemical Updating form located on the SharePoint library.

A. The individual adding a chemical must include all details listed on the form.

B. An updated SDS obtained directly from the manufacturer or distributor (an SDS achieved from a Google search will not be accepted)

C. A direct link to the website where the SDS can be located, the phone number called to request the SDS, or an email address the SDS was requested from.

D. A picture of the product/chemical or UPC/barcode may be requested if not included and details of the product/chemical are insufficient.

SDS will be readily available to all associates in their work area for review at any time during a work shift. Hazardous chemicals will not be used until an SDS or appropriate SDS information is available and associates are trained. If an SDS is not available or a new chemical arrives without an SDS for a hazardous chemical, immediately contact your supervisor.

Associate Information and Training Prior to starting work, each new company associate will receive a Right to Know Informational Packet and watch the HazCom Video to include the following:

1. Overview of hazard communication program requirements.

2. Hazardous chemicals present in the workplace.

3. Location and availability of the written hazard communication program, posters, and SDS’s.

4. Physical and health effects of hazardous chemicals.

5. Methods and observation techniques used to determine the presence or release of hazardous chemicals in the work area.

6. How to reduce or prevent exposure to these hazardous chemicals through use of control/work practices and personal protective equipment

7. Steps the company has taken to reduce or prevent exposure to these chemicals.

8. Safety emergency procedures to follow if the associate is exposed to these chemicals.

9. How to read labels and review SDS to obtain appropriate hazard information.

Each associate will be required to read the Right to Know Informational Packet, sign the Right to Know Acknowledgment Form, and at the end of training sign the New Hire Safety Training Requirements Form. The associate will indicate that they understand the information and will comply with appropriate safe work practices, and that they understand that doing so is a condition of employment.

Each department manager will be responsible for answering any questions which might arise as a result of the training, and be responsible for training current associates whenever a new hazard is introduced into the workplace.

Hazardous Non-routine Tasks The Company's associates are not assigned foreseeable non-routine tasks which would expose them to hazardous chemicals. Certain associates (such as maintenance) might be assigned such non-routine tasks. Prior to starting work on such non-routine tasks, each

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Program Auto Warehousing Company is committed to the prevention of incidence or happenings which result in injury and/or illnesses: and to complying with all applicable federal and state/provincial health and safety rules.

PPE is designed to protect the worker from injury or harm. However, it is not designed to prevent the occurrence of an incident which might cause harm or injury. For that reason, simply wearing PPE is not considered the single or most desirable solution to a possible occupational safety hazard.

Where there is a reasonable probability of injury, illness, or disease to the worker that cannot be controlled by other methods, PPE will be required. Once the decision to use PPE is made, care will be taken to make sure that the equipment is appropriate for the hazard.

The program consists of two sections:

1. Written assessment of the workplace.

2. Associate Training Program.

Electronic Hazard Assessment An electronic workplace assessment will be performed to determine whether hazards are present, or likely to be present, that necessitates the use of personal protective equipment. If such hazards exist, or are likely to exist, Auto Warehousing Company will select appropriate protective equipment.

All electronic hazard assessments will be completed by facility management and stored in a PPE - Certification of Assessment document library on the Safety SharePoint.

Education and Training Program All new associates will be trained on PPE, physically shown the location of PPE posters, where PPE is located, how to obtain PPE, and required to sign a PPE Acknowledgment Form. All associates who are required to wear personal protective equipment will be trained as follows:

1. When PPE is necessary.

2. What PPE is necessary?

3. How to put on, remove, adjust and wear PPE.

4. How to properly care for and maintain PPE, as well as equipment life expectancy and when to discard deteriorating or defective equipment.

5. Limitations on PPE's ability to protect against hazards.

6. There responsibilities and where to get information on all the above listed items.

Associates will be retrained annually and when PPE is replaced or brought new into Auto Warehousing Company. It will be communicated to each affected associate the selection decision and how to properly fit or use each selected item.

Replacement of Defective or Damaged Equipment Supervisors or managers will immediately replace any defective PPE that they know of. It is the associate’s responsibility to inform management if their PPE becomes damage, worn-out or defective.

A. For operations with Gas metal arc welding and flux cored arc welding in the Body Shop with an arc current of 60-160 a minimum protective shade of 10 will be worn.

2. Head protection requirements cover exposure to falling objects and low ceiling heights.

3. Foot protection required must protect workers from exposure to falling objects or objects that can pierce the sole of a shoe.

4. Hand protection is required in a number of instances, including when a worker's hands may be exposed to skin absorption of harmful substances, severe cuts, severe abrasions, punctures, chemical burns, thermal bums and harmful temperature extremes.

5. Respiratory Protection identifies where lung protection is needed and methods of protecting associates from potential hazards.

6. Fall Protection identifies fall hazards and methods of protecting associates.

For training procedures in proper use of personal protective equipment please refer to training documents and more detailed information on PPE and how to determine what equipment should be used you can be located on the OSHA website:

https://www.osha.gov/dte/library/ppe_assessment/ppe_assessment.html

Respiratory Protection Program The AWC respirator protection program provides guidelines and procedures to safeguard associates from potential exposure to vapors, fumes, mists, dusts and oxygen deficiency in the workplace. This is generally accomplished using effective engineering controls (e.g., ventilation, instrumentation, controls, etc.) and safe work practices to the extent feasible. Respiratory protective equipment must be used to prevent associate exposure under the following conditions:

1. During the time required to install, service or maintain engineering controls

2. Where engineering controls and safe work practices fail to achieve full compliance

The program will be reviewed annually and updated, as necessary, to reflect any changes in workplace conditions or job assignments that might affect respirator use by the utilization of the PPE Certification of Assessment.

Use of Respirator/Availability Each associate that requires a respirator shall wear an approved respirator, properly fitted at all times while performing an operation defined as Hazardous or in the immediate area (within 10 feet) for an extended period of time (more than 5 minutes) where another associate is performing a hazardous operation. The operations considered hazardous at this time are: Paint and Body Shop processes

Each associate that needs or is required to wear a respirator will be issued one along with replacement parts, cartridges and filters as needed. The selected types of respirators are available from the paint shop leadsperson or supervisor.

Associates will not be assigned to tasks requiring use of respirators unless it has been determined that they are physically able to perform the work and use the equipment. The local physician shall determine this at their initial physical. The respirator user's medical status will be reviewed annually.

Page 34: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 6 Page 27

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Responsibilities The following responsibilities have been assigned to the following designated personnel to ensure the effectiveness of the Respirator Protection program in safeguarding the health and safety of all associates.

Program Administration The Safety Department is responsible for the administration and technical oversight of the respiratory protection program. The responsibilities include:

1. Identification of those work areas that require respirator use, including an assessment of the potential hazards

2. If applicable: air sampling, measurement and laboratory analysis of contaminants, vapors or particulates in the identified work area(s)

3. Implement the medical surveillance and evaluation of associates required to use respirators, including follow-up examinations, where necessary

4. Arrange or conduct appropriate training of associates to instruct them on the storage, use and maintenance of respirators in the workplace

5. Record keeping and documentation of updates to the respirator protection program

Supervisors

Area Supervisors are responsible for ensuring that the respirator protection program is properly implemented for associates under their supervision and that equipment is made available to each worker assigned a job task requiring a respirator. Their responsibilities include:

Ensure that personnel are knowledgeable in the storage, use and maintenance of respiratory equipment

Enforcement of the use of respirators by associates under their supervision

Selection of respiratory equipment including fit testing of associates

Verify that the correct respirator and canister is used for the job(s) performed

Ensure that all respirator equipment is properly stored, cleaned and maintained

Identify any faulty equipment or changes to workplace conditions that might affect the work environment or respirator usage and report it to the safety department

Remove any defective or damaged respirators from service and replace (see maintenance section)

Associates

Wearing of respirators at all times, where required

­ Spray booth

­ Sanding, buffing and grinding

­ Mixing chemicals

­ Cleaning spray equipment

Storage, cleaning and maintenance of respirator equipment

Reporting of any defective or faulty respirator to the Supervisor

Page 35: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 6 Page 28

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Reporting of any illness, symptoms, change in medical condition or other health concerns to the Supervisor and Safety Coordinator

Attend training courses on the use, care and maintenance of respirators

Associate will not work in IDLH atmospheres or use a respirator in an emergency situation

In the case of an emergency all associates must evacuate the area immediately

Work Place Monitoring and Assessment Respirators will be selected based on the hazards to which associates are exposed during their assigned work tasks. Evaluations will be conducted for each work area where airborne contaminants, vapors, fumes and particulates may be present in the workplace environment to assess any hazards. The evaluation should include:

1. Listing of all hazardous materials or chemicals in the work area

2. Review of work procedures

3. Assessment of engineering controls in place, e.g., exhaust ventilation, sensors, instrumentation, etc.

4. If Applicable, air sampling of the workplace environment or personal air sampling of associates in representative areas of the workplace during operations.

Medical Evaluations Auto Warehousing Company’s designated medical services provider will perform a medical evaluation (annually) on each associate whose job assignment requires the use of a tight fitting or fresh-air supplied respirator. The associate will receive a medical questionnaire on line. This will ensure that the associate is physically and psychologically able to perform his/her assigned job duties while wearing respiratory protective equipment. A respirator fit test will be conducted after satisfactory completion of the medical examination. Follow-up evaluations may be administered should the associate report any change in their medical condition or other health concerns. If associate is medically unable to use a negative pressure respirator the company needs to provide a powered air purifying respirator (PAPR).

Respirator Fitting Upon successful completion of the medical examination, associates required to wear a tight fitting respirator will be given a fit test prior to commencing their job duties in a contaminated area. Respirators are generally available in several sizes to provide a comfortable fit for the associate. Fit testing will not be conducted on associates with facial hair that passes between the respirator seal and the face or interferes with valve operation. This includes beards, stubble and long sideburns. Fit testing of associates will be performed annually or whenever a different respirator face piece type is to be used by the associate.

Additional fit tests shall be conducted whenever the associate reports or the employer, supervisor, or program administrator makes visual observations of, changes in the associate's physical condition that could affect respirator fit. Such conditions include, but are not limited to, facial scarring, dental changes, cosmetic surgery, or an obvious change in body weight.

The facility should retain fit test records for respirator users. Refer to the OSHA website for detailed information on respirator fit testing procedures as mandated by OSHA 1910.134.

The employer shall establish a record of the qualitative and quantitative fit tests administered to an associate including:

1. The name or identification of the associate tested;

Page 36: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 6 Page 29

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

2. Type of fit test performed;

3. Specific make, model, style, and size of respirator tested;

4. Date of test; and

5. The pass/fail results for QLFTs or the fit factor and strip chart recording or other recording of the test results for QNFTs.

Fit test records shall be retained for respirator users until the next fit test is administered.

Respirator Equipment Selection Selection of respirators should be based on the physical and chemical properties of airborne contaminants, vapors or fumes in the work area(s) and their reported concentration levels. The appropriate respirators, cartridges and filters will be provided to medically approved associates who are assigned to job duties that require respirator equipment. All respirators should be NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) approved. Area Supervisors will supply replacement cartridges and filters, as needed. The following types of respirators are approved for use:

Auto Preparation and Sanding Areas

Model 3M 7503 with particulate cartridge or equivalent

Paint Mix Room and Vehicle Spray Painting

3M 7503 respirator, half-mask, or equivalent

3M 07046 organic vapor cartridge or equivalent

Vision 2000, SATA, PAPR or equivalent

Only NIOSH/MSHA approved respirators have been chosen. The choice between these respirators is dependent upon the airborne contaminant present, the hazardous operation performed, and on the basis of comfort and ease of obtaining a proper fit. The company will provide the respirators. Currently only respirators that protect against particulates (dusts. fumes, mists, or fogs) created by sanding, welding or painting vehicles are needed.

The useful life of each respirator will vary depending on the job duties, the actual time in use, and individual storage procedures. Each respirator will have some limitations. Refer to respirator instructions. Air purifying types (disposable, half-mask cartridge) must only be used in 19.5 percent oxygen or better. No work will be performed in areas less than 19.5 percent oxygen.

Respirator Use Respirators should be used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and safe work practices established by the Area Supervisor. Do not share your assigned respirator with any other associates. Eyeglasses or goggles must be worn in a manner that does not interfere with the seal of the face piece. Each associate should check the respirator seal each time it is worn, prior to commencing any work activity by performing the following:

1. Positive Pressure Check: Close off the exhalation valve and exhale gently into the face piece. The face fit is considered satisfactory if a slight positive pressure can be built up inside the face piece without any evidence of outward leakage of air at the seal. For most respirators this method of leak testing requires the wearer to first remove the exhalation valve cover before closing off the exhalation valve and then carefully replacing it after the test.

2. Negative Pressure Check: Close off the inlet opening of the canister or cartridge(s) by covering with the palm of the hand(s) or by replacing the filter seal(s), inhale gently so that the face piece collapses slightly, and hold the breath for ten seconds. The design of the inlet opening of some cartridges cannot be effectively covered with the

Page 37: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 6 Page 30

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

palm of the hand. The test can be performed by covering the inlet opening of the cartridge with a thin latex or nitrile glove. If the face piece remains in its slightly collapsed condition and no inward leakage of air is detected, the tightness of the respirator is considered satisfactory.

A. The respirator manufacturer's recommended procedures for performing a user seal check may be used instead of the positive and/or negative pressure check procedures provided that the employer demonstrates that the manufacturer's procedures are equally effective.

Supervisors should monitor work area conditions wherever respirators are used to determine any changes in the workplace environment or the condition of ventilation equipment. Associates should exit the work area for any of the following reasons:

1. Malfunction of the respirator or leakage of the face piece

2. To replace cartridges and filters or clean face piece

3. Increased breathing resistance or discomfort in wearing the respirator

4. To wash face to prevent eye or skin irritation

5. Associate illness due to dizziness, nausea, weakness, breathing difficulty, coughing, sneezing, vomiting or other warning symptoms

Respirator Maintenance & Care Respirators must be properly inspected, cleaned and stored to retain their effectiveness and ensure protection of the associate. Cartridges should be changed at a minimum of once a week.

Inspection

Each associate assigned a respirator should inspect the unit daily prior to use and during cleaning for the following (See: Daily Respirator Inspection Log):

Face piece cleanliness and proper fit

Straps for proper fit

Tube connections

Replacement of filters and/or cartridges in accordance with filter use time limits

Evidence of cracked, soiled or damaged seals

Proper operation of fresh air supply compressor (where used)

If a defective condition is observed during respirator inspection, the unit should be tagged and immediately removed from service. The Area Supervisor will issue replacement respirators to associates, if needed. Associates are not permitted to repair, alter or modify respirators other than routine replacement of filters and canisters. All respirator repairs must be performed by 3M or an approved contractor in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Respirators assigned for emergency use should be inspected monthly and inspected for proper operation before each use.

Cleaning

Respirators should be cleaned and disinfected daily (or after each use) by the assigned associate in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations to maintain equipment in a sanitary condition. Clean face piece with 3M 07065 respirator wipes or equivalent. Allow to air dry in a non-contaminated environment.

Page 38: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 6 Page 31

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Storage

Install cleaned respirator in a sealed polyethylene bag to prevent distortion of the face piece and exhalation valve. Do not hang the face piece by the headbands or place in any position that may cause distortion or damage to the seals. Store respirators in a location away from sunlight, dust, extreme temperatures, moisture, chemicals or contamination. Respirators should be identified or marked with the wearer’s name to ensure its use by the assigned associate only.

Record Keeping

The Safety Coordinator/Supervisor at each facility should maintain records for the following:

Associates assigned to respirators

Associate medical evaluations

Respirator fit testing

Associate training and orientation

Weekly respirator inspection reports

Annual respirator program evaluation

If Applicable -Air quality sampling of work area(s)

Associate Training Training of all associates and supervisors who are required to use a respirator in the performance of their assigned job duties, will be conducted prior to respirator use by the 3M manufacturer’s representative or other qualified instructor. Users will be instructed and trained in the proper use of respirators and their limitations when they initially select a respirator. Associates should demonstrate knowledge of, but not limited to:

1. Why the respirator is necessary and how improper fit, usage, or maintenance can compromise the protective effect of the respirator

2. What the limitations and capabilities of the respirator are

3. How to inspect, put on and remove, use, and check the seals of the respirator

4. What the procedures are for maintenance and storage of the respirator

5. How to recognize medical signs and symptoms that may limit or prevent the effective use of respirators

Retraining shall be administered annually, and when the following situations occur:

1. Changes in the workplace or the type of respirator render previous training obsolete;

2. Inadequacies in the associate's knowledge or use of the respirator indicate that the associate has not retained the requisite understanding or skill; or

3. Any other situation arises in which retraining appears necessary to ensure safe respirator use.

Respirator Program Evaluation The site Safety Coordinator and Area Supervisors should evaluate each work area on an annual basis or as needed to verify that the provisions of the respirator protection program are being properly implemented and to review pertinent records documenting respirator use and training. This assessment shall include discussions with associates required to use respirators to identify any areas of concern. Corrective actions should be implemented, where necessary, to address any noted problems or deficiencies.

Fall Protection Program We believe that in order for the fall protection program to be effective, it will take the cooperation and support of all our associates. We are adopting the following program to help protect our people from falls while working in elevated areas of four feet or more in height.

The AWC Fall Protection Program has seven primary components:

1. Identifies all fall hazards in the work area.

2. Describes the method of fall arrest and fall restraint to be provided.

3. Describes the correct procedures for the assembly, maintenance, inspection and disassembly of the fall protection system to be used.

4. Describes the correct procedures for handling, storage and securing of tools and materials.

5. Describes the methods of providing overhead protection for associates who may be in or pass through the work area.

6. Describe the methods AWC will inform contractors of this program.

7. Describes the method for prompt, safe removal of injured workers from the jobsite.

We will be continually reviewing the Fall Protection Program to ensure its effectiveness. We know we can count on your full cooperation in the successful promotion of this program.

Identification of Fall Hazards Fall hazards in the work area are located at the edge of the roofline, working on ladders, railcars, and Mezzanine.

Method of fall arrest or fall restraint to be provided:

1. If working over a roofline, an American National Standard (ANSI) Class III full body harness with a shock absorbing lanyard will be used as a fall restraint. Only one shock absorbing lanyard may be used with a Class III full body harness.

2. While working on a ladder or in railcars, harnesses and lanyard will not be required.

3. Harnesses must have an ANSI tag, including the name of the manufacturer and date (anything over 5 years old must not be used).

Assembly, maintenance, inspection and disassembly of the fall protective system to be used:

1. Fall Arrest equipment including Class III full body harnesses, shock absorbing lanyards and all rigging devices will be inspected by the associate using the equipment prior to the commencement of operations (See section entitled "Fall Protection Equipment Inspection & Maintenance Procedures).

2. Any defective equipment will be taken to the supervisor for further evaluation and turned in for repair or destroyed as appropriate.

3. Raised platforms are built into the machinery and comply with all government requirements for fall protection.

Correct procedures for handling, storage and securing of tools and materials:

1. All fall protection equipment must be stored in the maintenance department. Fall protection equipment will be picked up from the maintenance department by the using associate, inspected and returned to the maintenance department after the work or shift is over. Associates will immediately advise the supervisor if any damage to the equipment has occurred.

Page 40: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 6 Page 33

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

2. Tools will be secured as follows:

A. Tool belts will be used to carry hand tools to the elevated work surface.

B. Tools too large for the tool-belt will either be hand carried or raised by rope, pulley or handed up by another worker to the elevated work surface if the work surface is more than six feet above the floor.

C. When working at or over the edge of the roofline, and/or platform where there may be danger to other workers or the general public from falling of dropped tools or material, the tool or the material must be secured to prevent them from falling to lower elevations.

D. Large tools, such as skill-saws, will be secured to guardrails when these tools are used on scaffolding platforms.

Method of providing overhead protection for anyone who may be in or pass through, the area below the work area.

Warning signs or tapes must be used at ground level when there may be a possibility that associates, other workers, or the general public may be in or pass through, the area below in the hoisting or work area.

Method of prompt, safe removal of injured workers:

1. If an associate is injured, evaluation of the condition will be made by the supervisor.

2. If the injured worker's condition appears to be serious or if professional help is needed (fire department rescue or paramedic), the supervisor or a designated person will call and request immediate assistance.

3. Supervisor will conduct an accident investigation as soon as possible and provide appropriate action to prevent reoccurrence of the accident. Should the accident involve the failure of any fall protection device, or equipment, the supervisor will immediately remove the damaged equipment from service and retain the equipment in the supervisor's possession until further evaluation of the equipment can be done.

Supervisors will conduct all fall protection training:

1. New associates will be oriented to the AWC Fall Protection Program as part of the new associate orientation program.

2. All maintenance associates will be trained in the Fall Protection Program on an annual basis.

3. Maintenance associates will sign off on all safety training related to fall protection.

4. Any associate who has not received appropriate training in the AWC Fall Protection Program will not be allowed to work above grade level until the associate has been trained and understands the program.

5. The Fall Protection Program is based on published standards concerning this matter. These standards are considered to be a minimum program and the AWC Fall Protection Program has been designed to exceed the minimum.

Outside Contractors A designated AWC associate will review the AWC Fall Protection Program with the contractor(s) prior to performing work involving a potential fall hazard as defined by this program (Identification of Fall Hazards in the Work Area) and/or related to the contractor's work. The contractor and their associates designated to perform work must show competence in (e.g. documented training, etc.) using fall protection devices. (AWC designated associate) will also inform contractors of any applicable safety rules and

Section 6 Page 34

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

provisions of the emergency action plan. The contract employer will assure that each of their associates follow all applicable work practices and safety rules.

Fall Protection Equipment Inspection & Maintenance Procedures

Harness Inspection

Harnesses are made to perform to standards set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the American National Standard Institute (ANSI). The standards provide for strength, durability, and dependability while satisfying a wide range of job requirements.

To maintain service life-approximately five years of service-all harnesses should be inspected frequently.

Fall protection equipment must be inspected daily and replaced immediately if any of the defective conditions explained below are found during routine inspection.

Inspection Procedures

Beginning at one end, holding the body side of the harness toward you, grasp one area of the harness with your hands six to eight inches apart. Bend the strap in an inverted "U". The surface tension resulting makes damaged fibers or cuts easier to see.

Follow this procedure the entire length of the harness. Watch for frayed edges, broken fibers, pulled stitches, cuts or chemical damage.

Special attention should be given to the attachment of buckles and Dee Rings to webbing. Note any unusual wear, frayed or cut fibers, or distortion of the buckles or dee rings.

Inspect for frayed or broken strands. Broken webbing strands generally appear as tufts on the webbing surface. Any broken, cut, or burned stitches will be readily seen.

Rivets should be tight and unmovable with fingers. Body side rivet base and outside rivet burr should be flat against the material. Bent rivets will fail under stress.

Especially note condition of Dee Ring rivets and Dee Ring metal wear pads (if any). Discolored, pitted, or cracked rivets indicate chemical corrosion.

The tongue or billet of bolts receives heavy wear from repeated buckling and unbuckling. Inspect for loose, distorted, or broken grommets. Harnesses using punched holes without grommets should be checked for torn or elongated holes causing slippage of the tongue buckle.

­ Tongue Buckle: Buckle tongues should be free of distortion in shape and motion. They should overlap the buckle frame and move freely back and forth in their socket. Roller should turn freely on frame. Check for distortion or sharp edges.

­ Friction Buckle: Inspect the buckle for distortion. The outer bars and center bars must be straight. Pay special attention to corners and attachment points of the center bar.

­ Sliding Bar Buckle: Inspect buckle frame and sliding bar for cracks, distortion, or sharp edges. The sliding bar should move freely. Knurled edge will slip if worn smooth. Pay special attention to corners and ends of sliding bar.

Page 42: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 6 Page 35

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

­ Dee Ring: Inspect closely the forged steel Dee Ring for cracks or other defects. Inspect the assembly of the Dee Ring to the body pad or Dee saddle. If the Dee Ring can be moved vertically independent of the body pad or Dee saddle, the harness should be replaced.

­ Waist Strap: Inspect assembly of buckle to waist strap. Check threads closely and tongue buckle holes for excessive elongation. Check waist strap for cuts or other deteriorating conditions. Never cut or punch additional holes in waist strap or strength members.

A close inspection should be given to tool loops and belt sewing because broken or stretched loops can drop tools. Check bag rings and knife snaps to see that they are secure and working properly and check tool loop rivets. Make sure tools are not adversely affecting the waist strap. Check for thread separation or rotting both inside and outside of body pad belt.

Inch-by-inch visual inspection for fiber laceration or stitch damage is done by flexing the strap in an inverted "U". Not cuts, frayed areas, or corrosive damage.

Straps with friction buckles should be checked for slippage and sharp buckle edges. Those equipped with tongue buckle holes should be examined for excessive wear or elongation of the hole.

Snap hooks should be checked for distortion of hook or frame attachment to belt. Cracks, corrosion or pitted surfaces indicate an unsafe condition. The keeper (latch) should seat into snap nose without binding or obstruction and the keeper spring should have sufficient force to close the keeper firmly. All rivets should be tight, free of wear or distortion, and without cracks, sharp edges or corrosion.

Lanyard and Hardware Inspection

When inspecting lanyards, begin at one end and work to the opposite end. Slowly rotate the lanyard so the entire circumference is checked. Spliced ends require particular attention. Hardware should be examined under procedures also detailed below:

Steel: While rotating the steel lanyard watch for cuts, frayed areas, or unusual wearing patterns on the wire. Broken strands will separate from the body of the lanyard.

Webbing: While bending webbing over a pile or mandrel, observe each side of the webbed lanyard. This will reveal any cuts or breaks. Swelling, discoloration, cracks, and charring are obvious signs of chemical or heat damage. Observe closely for any breaks in the stitching.

Rope: Rotation of the rope lanyard while inspecting from end to end will bring to light any fuzzy, worn, broken, or cut fibers. Weakened areas from extreme loads will appear as a noticeable change in original diameter. The rope diameter should be uniform throughout, following a short break-in-period. Strands should be separated and inspected since the rope may wear on the inside if grit or moisture becomes embedded.

Snaps: Inspect closely for hook and eve distortions, cracks, corrosion, or pitted surfaces. The keeper (latch) should seal into the nose without binding and should not be distorted or obstructed. The keeper spring should exert sufficient force to firmly close the keeper

Dee Rings: Check Dee Rings and Dee Ring metal wear pad (if any) for distortion, cracks, breaks, and rough or sharp edges. The Dee Ring bar should be at a 90 degree angle with the long axis of the belt and should pivot freely.

Page 43: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 6 Page 36

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Thimbles: The thimble must be unmovable in the eyes of the splice, and the splice should have no loose or cut strands. The edges must be free of sharp edges, distortion, or cracks.

Cleaning: Basic care of all fall protection equipment will prolong the durable life of the unit and contribute toward its performance. Proper storage and maintenance after use is as important as cleansing the equipment of dirt, corrosive& or contaminants. Storage areas should be clean, dry, and free of exposure to fumes or corrosive elements.

­ Wipe off all surface dirt with a sponge dampened in plain water Squeeze the sponge dry Dip the sponge in a mild solution of water and commercial soap or detergent. Work up a thick lather with a vigorous back and forth motion.

­ Wipe the belt dry with a clean cloth. Hang freely to dry but away from excessive heat.

­ Bolts and other equipment should dry thoroughly without close exposure to heat, steam, or long periods of sunlight.

­ Mildly dirty cotton may be cleaned like nylon. For heavy dirt or grease, soak belts in a solution of one tablespoon of grease cutter to one gallon of water. Do not use a stronger solution.

­ After soaking, rinse again, then hang to dry.

Confined Space Entry A confined space is an enclosed area with limited space and accessibility. An example is the interior of a storage tank, pit, or manhole, which may be occasionally entered by workers for maintenance but is otherwise not a habitable space.

At no time is any AWC associate or manager allowed to enter a confined space for any reason.

Hazardous Work Permit for Hot Work A permit is necessary because either the nature of the job or use of hazardous chemicals indicate special precautions must be taken to ensure the work is performed safely.

A permit is required for the following jobs:

1. Maintenance welding in locations outside the shop near hazards (e.g. near chemical storage, combustibles, etc.).

2. Non-Routine operations with unique hazards.

Permit System A permit system is required for the following AWC associate activities:

1. Checklist to ensure proper preparation of the work area.

2. Expiration time and date which prevents the permit from being used through a change of shift.

3. The signature of the responsible supervisor and associates who will perform the work.

Lockout/Tagout Program Auto Warehousing Company established the lockout/tagout program to provide maximum safety protection to our associates whenever they must service or perform maintenance on company machinery and equipment. These procedures must be used by all associates authorized to service or maintain our equipment to ensure that machines or equipment are completely isolated from all potentially hazardous energy sources. All associates affected in any way by servicing and maintenance activities must also be knowledgeable of lockout/tagout procedures.

These procedures must be followed whenever unexpected energization, start-up or release of stored energy could cause injury. These procedures do not apply when servicing or maintenance of equipment is dining normal production operations unless:

1. Guards, or other safety devices, must be removed or bypassed: or

2. An associate places himself/herself in an area where work on materials, etc. is actually

being performed (e.g. inside wash line): or

3. An associate places himself/herself in any area considered dangerous during the normal

operating cycle (e.g. inside wash line).

The manufacturer's instructions will be followed or if none exist specific operating procedures will be written for equipment considered potentially hazardous from energy sources. (Energy sources to include: electrical, pneumatic, steam, hydraulic. pressurized fluids/gases, mechanical, gravity, chemical and radiation.)

All supervisors are responsible and accountable for the use of safe lockout/tagout procedures by all associates under their supervision. Compliance with lockout/tagout procedures is mandatory. Non-compliance with these procedures is considered a violation of an associate’s condition of employment and will result in the initiation of progressive disciplinary procedures including termination.

Associates, who are properly trained on equipment maintenance and lockout/tagout procedures, and approved by the Terminal Manager, are authorized to implement lockout/tagout procedures as appropriate.

Lockout/Tagout Procedures

Preparation for Lockout Prior to lockout, the authorized associate(s) will review the manufactures instructions, or the specific lockout procedures for each machine or piece of equipment.

1. Types and magnitudes of energy.

2. Hazards posed by that energy.

3. Methods to effectively control the energy.

Particularly close attention must be given to energies (such as gravity, electrical. high pressure) that can be stored or re-accumulated after shutdown.

Prior to shut down all affected associates will be notified to clear their work area and/or any other area that might be hazardous due to the shutdown.

Lockout/Tagout

1. Shutdown: Machinery and equipment will be shut down in an orderly manner using the shutdown procedures. If more than one authorized associate is involved in shutdown, the maintenance team leader will make sure everyone has accomplished their tasks and are aware that shutdown will occur. The team leader will insure that everyone is clear and no shortcuts are taken.

Page 45: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 7 Page 38

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

2. Isolation: All energy isolation devices will be located and operated to completely de-energize and isolate the equipment. The authorized associate, or team leader will verify operation of each energy isolation device.

3. Applying Lockout/Tagout Devices:

A. Lockout devices will be used to secure energy isolating devices unless the machinery or equipment is not capable of being locked out. Only authorized associates will affix lockout/tagout devices. Lockout devices must be able to hold energy isolation devices in a "safe" or "off' position.

B. Tagout devices will be used only if machinery or equipment is not capable of being locked out Tags will clearly state that removing energy isolating devices from the "safe" or "off' position is strictly prohibited. If the tag cannot be affixed to the energy isolating device, it will be located as close as safely possible to the device so that the tag is obvious to anyone attempting to operate the device.

C. Lockout/Tagout Materials and Hardware: Lockout/Tagout devices will be furnished by the company and located in the proximity of the equipment needing them and/or in the maintenance department, depending on the nature of the device required.

Lockout devices will have the following characteristics:

1. Capable of withstanding harsh environments.

2. Standardized within the facility. Same color, shape, size. etc.

3. Cannot be removed without excessive force.

4. Singularly identify the user.

5. Uniquely keyed.

Tagout devices will have the following characteristics:

1. Non-reusable.

2. Attachable by hand.

3. Self-locking.

4. Non-releasable with not less than 50 lb. locking strength.

5. Design/characteristics at least equivalent to a one-piece, all environment-tolerant nylon cable tie.

Stored Energy: Immediately after applying lockout or tagout devices, the authorized associate will ensure all potentially hazardous stored or residual energy is relieved, disconnected, restrained, and otherwise rendered safe.

If stored energy can be re-accumulated, the authorized associate will verify that the energy is isolated until maintenance is complete or the energy no longer exists.

Verification of Isolation: Before starting work on a machine or equipment that is locked or tagged out, the authorized associate will verify that the machinery or equipment is actually isolated and de-energized.

Release from Lockout or Tagout

The authorized associate will follow the procedures below prior to removing lockout or tagout devices and restoring energy:

Equipment. Make sure machinery or equipment is properly reassembled. Inspect machinery or equipment to make sure nonessential items have been removed.

Page 46: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 7 Page 39

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Associates. Make sure all associates are safely positioned outside danger zones. Notify affected associates that lockout/tagout devices have been removed and that energy is going to be reapplied.

Removing lockout/tagout devices. Only the authorized associate who applied the lockout/tagout device may remove that device. Exception. When the authorized associate is not at the facility and all reasonable efforts have been made to inform him/her that his/her lockout tagout device has been removed:

­ His supervisor is authorized and will remove the device following procedures in this section.

­ Each maintenance supervisor will be trained in proper lockout/tagout procedures.

­ The supervisor will ensure the authorized associate has this knowledge before he/she resumes work.

Testing/Positioning Machines or Equipment. Whenever lockout/tagout devices are removed to test or position machines and equipment, or their components, the authorized associate will complete the following procedures in the sequence presented:

­ Clear the machine or equipment of tools and materials.

­ Make sure all associates are away from danger zones.

­ The authorized associate will remove the lockout/tagout device.

­ Energize and proceed testing or positioning.

­ De-energize all systems and reapply lockout/tagout devices following sequence for initial lockout/tagout.

Outside Personnel (Contractors, etc.)

­ Outside servicing personnel contracted to perform maintenance or other services covered by these lockout/tagout procedures, will not begin work until the maintenance supervisor is satisfied that their lockout/tagout procedures arc at least equivalent to company procedures.

­ The maintenance supervisor will also ensure company associates understand and comply with contracted personnel lockout/tagout procedures.

Shift/Personnel Changes: When a shift change occurs the following lockout/tagout procedures will be followed:

­ The off-going maintenance supervisor will attach a lockout/tagout device at each required location;

­ The off-going authorized associate(s) will detach lockout/tagout devices:

­ The on-coming authorized associates(s) will receive a comprehensive briefing on the maintenance being performed;

­ The oncoming authorized associate(s) will attach lockout/tagout devices and verify complete isolation: and

­ The off-going supervisor will detach his/her lockout/tagout device.

Electrical Lockout/Tagout Procedures The purpose of this program is to provide protection to all associates while working on electrical and electrically driven equipment. The lockout/tagout procedure has been divided into two types: A (fixed) and B (portable).

Emergency Response Plan Major disasters must be anticipated and procedures must be developed and mastered if the well-being of our associates is to be protected and if we are to be ready to serve our community. Examples of emergencies that can happen in our work facility include chemical spills, fires, explosions, and personal injury, tornadoes, earthquakes, etc.

The effectiveness of response during emergencies depends on the amount of planning and training performed. Remember, your conduct and actions in the first few minutes of an emergency may not only save your life, but the lives of your co-workers and other members of the community. It is the Terminal Manager's responsibility to see that this program is frequently reviewed and updated. The input and support of all associates is requested to ensure an effective program.

Evaluate facility potential hazards and injury types and have the appropriate First Aid supplies available in a quantity sufficient for the number of associates at the facility. The supplies must be readily accessible for all shifts and include directions for requesting emergency assistance.

Evacuation Maps Evacuation Maps (See: Evacuation Maps) will be posted in conspicuous places throughout the building to assist if there is an emergency. The maps will have:

1. Arrows pointing to exits,

2. Red Crosses depicting the location of first aid kits

3. Fire extinguisher icons indicating the location of fire extinguishers,

Occupational Ergonomics The policy provides procedures for developing occupational ergonomic programs at all of the AWC facilities. The main goal is to prevent back injuries and cumulative trauma disorders through the institution of an ergonomic program which focuses on the interaction between people and their work, the tools they use, the tasks they perform, and the physical environment in which they perform their jobs.

Definitions

Ergonomics is the study of human characteristics for the appropriate design of the living and working environment. Ergonomics attempts to fit the job to the person.

Ergonomic Risk Factors refer to any workplace conditions that pose a biomechanical stress to the worker. Four factors that account for cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs) are force, repetition, posture, and no rest. Poor workplace conditions such as slippery floors, crowded areas, poor illumination, and excessive heat, cold, or humidity can contribute to CTDs.

Cumulative Trauma Disorders (CTDs) refer to a category of physical signs and symptoms due to chronic musculoskeletal injuries where the causes appear to be related to some aspect of repetitive work. CTDs are a class of musculoskeletal disorders involving damage to the tendons, tendon sheaths, and the related bones, muscles, and nerves of the hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, neck, and back. The more frequent types of CTDs include low back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, epicondylitis (tennis elbow), tendonitis, and tenosynovitis.

A cycle is a time interval during which a regularly recurring sequence of events is completed. It can be the time to complete a task with many elements or the time to complete a single operation in a repetitive task.

Summary of Ergonomic Program Elements The goal of an effective ergonomics program is to prevent illnesses and injuries by eliminating ergonomic risk factors. To accomplish this goal, the following four major program elements should be included in comprehensive ergonomics programs at AWC facilities.

1. Management Commitment and Associate Involvement

2. Ergonomic Hazard Recognition

3. Training and Education

4. Medical Management

Management Commitment and Associate Involvement The implementation of an effective ergonomics program includes a commitment by AWC to provide the visible involvement of management so that all associates, from management to hourly, fully understand that management has a serious commitment to the program. An effective program should have a team approach, with management serving as a team champion, and should include the following:

1. Affirm that the ergonomics program is an integral part of the company's overall health and safety efforts to prevent injuries and illnesses in the workplace.

2. Implementation of this plan requires management to integrate production processes and safety and health protection to assure that this protection is part of the daily production activity within each facility.

3. Delegate authority and provide resources needed to carry out assigned responsibilities.

4. Solicit questions and encourage associates to voice concerns and complaints.

5. Provide the opportunity for participative involvement in the development and implementation of solutions to ergonomic related problems.

Page 60: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 10 Page 53

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

6. Set-up procedures to encourage associates to report signs and symptoms of cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs) promptly and accurately.

7. Promote ergonomics as part of the overall quality process.

8. Provide a system of positive recognition for individuals making significant contributions to the ergonomics program or to the prevention of ergonomic problems.

Associate Involvement Associates must play an active role in the ergonomic program and in the decisions that affect worker safety. This involvement includes taking responsibility for their own safety and the safety of others by:

1. Participating on ergonomic projects and teams.

2. Training in the recognition of ergonomic hazards and health effects which might be associated with ergonomic stresses.

3. Voicing concerns or complaints which may lead to the early detection of conditions that may lead to ergonomic-related problems.

4. Suggesting solutions to ergonomic hazards and assisting in their implementation.

5. Encouraging prompt and accurate reporting of signs and symptoms of CTDs by associates so that they can be evaluated and, if warranted, treated.

6. Following up on ergonomic improvements which have been mutually agreed upon by management and teams to ensure they have been effectively implemented.

Program Review and Evaluation Procedures should be developed to evaluate the implementation of the ergonomic program and to monitor progress accomplished. Management should review the program regularly - to evaluate success in meeting its goals and objectives.

Evaluation techniques include methods such as the following:

1. Analysis of trends in injury/illness rates.

2. Reduction of workers compensations and other costs related to the injury/illness.

3. Associate surveys.

4. Improvements in product quality and productivity where measurable.

5. Before and after surveys/evaluations of job/worksite changes.

6. Observed improvement in associate work habits and behaviors.

7. Up-to-date records or logs of job improvements tried or implemented.

A periodic review by management is suggested.

Ergonomic Hazard Recognition

Worksite Analysis Every Job Safety Analysis (JSA) should include a systematic search for potential hazards which might be associated with ergonomic-related injuries and illnesses. The ergonomic hazard analysis may be conducted as a routine part of an overall JSA, or a specific job may be studied because of an increased incidence or perceived risk factors.

An ergonomic hazard recognition program identifies existing hazards and conditions, operations that create hazards, and areas where hazards may develop. This also includes scrutiny and tracking of injury and illness records to identify patterns of trauma or strains that may indicate the development of CTDs.

Page 61: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 10 Page 54

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

The objectives of worksite analysis are to recognize, identify, and correct ergonomic hazards.

1. The first step in implementing the analysis program of injury and illness records is to accomplish the following:

A. Analyze medical, safety, and insurance records, including the OSHA 300 log and information compiled through the medical management program, for evidence of cumulative trauma disorders.8

B. Identify and analyze any apparent trends relating to particular department, process units, job titles, operations, or workstations.

2. The second step of the hazard recognition program is to evaluate existing material handling tasks to identify and evaluate workplace conditions such as posture, force, repetitions, and weights of materials that are associated with CTDs. This analysis should do the following:

A. Conduct comprehensive baseline screening surveys to identify jobs that put associates at risk of developing CTDs. If the job places associates at risk of developing CTDs, than a more detailed ergonomic job hazard analysis will be completed. The baseline surveys should include components such as posture, material handling, and upper extremity factors.

B. Identify those work positions that put workers at risk of developing CTDs.

C. Verify low risk factors for alternate duty or restricted activity work positions.

D. Assure risk factors for a work position have been reduced or eliminated to the extent feasible.

E. Job hazard analyses shall be completed on all planned, new, and modified facilities, processes, materials, and equipment to ensure that workplace changes contribute to reducing or eliminating ergonomic hazards.

3. The job hazard analysis of ergonomic hazards should be performed and documented by a qualified person (trained personnel, ergonomic team, or ergonomist). Associates should also contribute to the process.

4. Periodic surveys of the worksite should be conducted - at least annually, or whenever operations change - to identify new or previously unnoticed risk factors and deficiencies or failures in work practices or engineering controls, and to assess the effects of changes in the work process.

A reliable system for associates to notify management about conditions that appear to be ergonomic hazards should be established. Associate insight can be used to determine appropriate work practices and engineering controls. This could be initiated by the JSA on ergonomic problems and issues, maintained through active safety committees and/or continuous improvement teams.

Hazard Prevention and Control Once the baseline screening survey and ergonomic job hazard analyses have been assessed, a priority system should be established to implement design measures to prevent or control the hazards. Ergonomic hazards are prevented primarily by effective design of the workstation, tools, and job. To be effective, the AWC program will use appropriate engineering and work practice controls, personal protective equipment, and administrative controls to correct or control ergonomic hazards.

8 Medical records are confidential and may be accessed only by qualified medical or legal personnel.

Section 10 Page 55

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Exercise, stretching, and other types of wellness programs are not acceptable methods of controlling existing ergonomic problems. However, they can be considered as a form of prevention since they encourage a healthful lifestyle and build strength and endurance, both of which are desirable attributes in preventing ergonomic injuries and illnesses.

Engineering Controls Engineering techniques, where feasible, are the preferred method of control. The mission of an ergonomics program is to make the job fit the person, not to force the person to fit the job. This is accomplished by designing workstations and equipment that eliminate the need for excessive exertion and awkward postures and to reduce repetitive motion.

Workstation Design

Workstations must be designed to accommodate a worker population with a broad range of physical sizes, strengths, flexibility, and endurance. They must provide comfort and adequate space for a full range of motion. In some cases, this will require adjustability.

Design of Work Methods

Work methods should be designed to reduce static, extreme, and awkward postures; repetitive motion; and excessive force. Work method design addresses the content of tasks performed by the workers. It requires analysis of the production system to design or modify tasks to eliminate stressors.

Tool and Handle Design

Tools and handles, if well-designed, reduce the risk of CTDs. A variety of tools should be available to achieve a proper fit and reduce ergonomic risk. The appropriate tool should be used to do a specific job. Tools and handles should be selected to eliminate or minimize the following stressors:

Chronic muscle contraction or steady force.

Extreme or awkward finger/hand/arm position.

Repetitive, forceful motions.

Tool vibration.

Excessive gripping, pinching, pressing with the hand and fingers.

Work Practice Controls Key elements of a good work practice program for ergonomics include proper work techniques, associate conditioning, regular monitoring, feedback, maintenance, adjustments and modifications, and enforcement.

Proper Work Techniques

A program for proper work techniques, such as the following, includes appropriate training and practice time for associates.

Following procedures for properly using materials handling equipment and hand tools.

Using proper body mechanics that avoid extreme or awkward postures when lifting, lowering, pushing, pulling, or carrying objects.

Minimize bending, twisting, stopping, static loading, or other stressors."

Properly adjust and position tools, furniture, and equipment to reduce ergonomic risk factors.

Physical Conditioning (Work Hardening)

Physical conditioning of new associates and current associates following a period of absences should be considered whenever the job requires repetitive motion and/or

Page 63: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 10 Page 56

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

physical strength. These associates should be gradually integrated into a full workload, as appropriate for specific jobs and individuals. Associates should be assigned to an experienced trainer for job training and evaluation during the break-in period. Associates reassigned to new jobs should also have a break-in period.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring at all levels of operation helps to ensure that associates continue to use proper work practices. This monitoring should include a periodic review of the techniques in use and their effectiveness, including a determination of whether the procedures in use are those specified; if not, then it would be determined why changes have occurred and whether corrective action is necessary.

Adjustments and Modifications

Modify work practice controls when the dynamics of the workplace change. Such adjustments include changes in the following:

Line speed.

Staffing at position.

Type, size, or weight of the product handled.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) PPE should be selected with ergonomic stressors in mind. Appropriate PPE should be provided in a variety of sizes, should accommodate the physical requirements of workers and the job, and should not contribute to extreme postures and excessive forces. The following factors should be considered when selecting PPE:

1. Proper fit is essential.

2. Braces, splints, back belts, and other similar devices are not PPE.

Administrative Controls The following types of administrative controls should be implemented, as appropriate, to reduce the duration, frequency, and severity of exposures to ergonomic stresses. These types of controls are not the preferred method when more permanent engineering controls can be implemented; however, when properly monitored they can be effective in reducing ergonomic hazards. Examples:

1. Reducing the total number of repetitions per associate by such means as decreasing production rates and limiting overtime worked.

2. More frequent or proper scheduling of rest periods.

3. Increase the number of associates assigned to a task to alleviate severe conditions, especially heavy lifting.

4. Using job rotation, used with caution and as a preventive measure, not as a response to symptoms. The principle of job rotation is to alleviate physical fatigue and stress of a particular set of muscles and tendons by rotating associates among other jobs that use different muscle/tendon groups. If rotation is used, the job analysis must be reviewed by a qualified person to ensure that the same muscle/tendon groups are not used.

5. Provide sufficient numbers of standby/relief personnel to compensate for foreseeable upset conditions on the lines.

6. Preventive maintenance program for mechanical and power tools and equipment.

7. Perform maintenance regularly and whenever workers report suspected problems.

8. Effective housekeeping program.

Section 10 Page 57

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Exercise/Wellness Programs The physical and mental well-being of associates is an important factor in the prevention of ergonomic-related injuries and illnesses. Associates who are physically and mentally healthy and maintain their bodies in good physical condition through proper diet and exercise are less likely to develop the classical ergonomic problems associated with strenuous and repetitive work.

Participation in stretching and exercise programs are encouraged because they promote on-the-job habits, behaviors, and lifestyles that are beneficial to associate health.

Exercise and stretching programs should, however, be strictly limited to associates who are not experiencing symptoms of pain or discomfort and are otherwise considered to be "healthy". Under no circumstances should stretching or exercise be used as treatment for an ergonomic injury or illness except under the specific direction of a health care provider.

Some examples of exercise/wellness programs for consideration are:

1. Company-organized stretching programs to lessen tight muscles before beginning work.

2. Job-specific exercise breaks with a trained leader.

3. Company-sponsored programs, such as health back programs, aimed at strengthening specific body parts.

4. Classes in stress management.

5. Off-the-job stretching and exercise programs.

Training and Education Appropriate training and education is needed to ensure that associates are sufficiently informed about the ergonomic hazards to which they may be exposed and thus are able to participate actively in their own protection. Associates should be adequately informed of the procedures and program elements included in this policy.

The initial training should occur at the manager and supervisor level and then be extended to all associates. Training, especially at the manager and supervisor levels, should be designed by person(s) with proven qualifications. The program should consist of both classroom training covering the various elements of the ergonomic program and on-the-job training in the recognition and control of ergonomic hazards in the workplace. The following types of training are recommended on (at least) an annual basis:

General Training

Associates who are potentially exposed to ergonomic hazards should be given formal instruction regarding the following:

Ergonomic risk factors associated with their jobs.

Varieties and causes of CTDs and methods of prevention.

How to recognize early symptoms of CTDs and the importance of early reporting of symptoms. Federal law requires that associates report all injuries and illnesses immediately for prompt medical attention. It is extremely important that symptoms of potential materials handling injuries and illness, including back injuries and cumulative trauma disorders of the hands and wrists, be reported at the earliest possible time. This allows for timely and appropriate medical evaluation and treatment before conditions become sever.

Materials handling procedures, good work practices, proper equipment, and appropriate personal protective equipment (gloves and footwear) to help prevent materials handling CTDs.

Page 65: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 10 Page 58

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Job-Specific Training

New associates and reassigned workers must receive an initial orientation and hands-on training prior to being placed in a full-time production job. This training should include:

Work practice orientation, including instructions on posture, lifting, use of tools, proper use of regular exercise/stretching breaks, etc.

Workstation orientation, including arrangement and adjustment of chairs, equipment, machinery, and other elements of the workstation.

Identification of workstation, tool, and task-related ergonomic hazards.

Protocols and procedures for reporting ergonomic hazards and for suggesting and implementing changes in their new environment.

Managers and Supervisors

In addition to the general training, training must focus on how to recognize and implement basic engineering, work practice, and administrative ergonomic controls. It is helpful for associates at these levels to receive specialized training in preparation for the role of educating and training other associates.

Engineers and Maintenance Personnel

Training must include the prevention and control of ergonomic hazards in the workplace through proper design and maintenance of work systems.

Ergonomic Coordinator

To whatever extent possible, the ergonomic coordinator must be provided full and comprehensive training. The coordinator should attend off-site training courses, when available through a reputable source, to become familiar with all facets of the ergonomic program, including recognition of the various types of ergonomic injuries. They should also develop expertise in the recognition and control of ergonomic hazards. The ergonomic coordinator should be able to communicate this information to management and associates relative to the specific needs at that site.

Work Station Design/Operation Some basic principles of ergonomics are to identify problems with the work task and to make modifications. The following are four areas to review:

1. Work Station Design

2. Material Handling Methods

3. Repetitive Job Tasks

4. Work Posture Recommendations

Job Design The best way to avoid injury is to plan the job ahead of time. Whenever possible, cut down on the number of times that material has to be handled. Consider the amount of weight and bulk to be moved, the route it has to travel, the condition of the floor surface, and the best possible mechanical aids for the job.

Body Movements Jobs with significant non-neutral posture demands should be redesigned to eliminate the causes of postural stress. Reduce excessive reach requirements (maximum reach limit can be determined by an arc that is located at the shoulder center-of-rotation without bending the trunk.

1. Task related trunk flexion can usually be attributed to one of two causes:

Page 66: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 10 Page 59

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

A. Reaching for an object that is lower than the height of the hands when standing with the arms fully relaxed (hanging vertically at the side of the body), or

B. Reaching for an object that is too far in front of the body.

2. Tilting benches or bins should be used to reposition work closer to operators' reach limit.

3. Standing work stations should have floor mats to reduce discomfort for those required to stand all day. It is also desirable to provide high stools to allow for sitting postures during part of the work shift.

Manual Handling Tasks

Studies have shown that more than half of all compensable low back pain has been related to the manual handling of objects.

1. When practical use devices such as benches, conveyors, lift tables, and hoists to deliver objects to the worker at a comfortable height. (Approximately 28" above the floor.)

2. Provide foot space under benches to allow workers to get closer to objects that must be grasped. Eliminate any barriers which unnecessarily restrict horizontal reaches.

3. Discourage axial twisting of the spine through improved work station layout. Eliminate situations where workers must turn the body 180 degrees to perform sequential operations. If the work station layout cannot be improved, train workers to turn their bodies by moving their feet instead of twisting the spine.

Excessive Loads Handling heavy loads is related to an increased incidence of low back pain. Studies have concluded the incidence is increased when the lifting is greater than 35 pounds. The basic principles involve:

1. Containerizing the objects so that mechanical devices can be used to carry or transport the material.

2. Reduce the number of times each piece has to be moved.

3. Reduce weights where possible.

4. Reduce the distance moved.

Work Postures Principles

1. Avoid any kind of bent or unnatural postures. Bending the trunk or head sideways is more harmful than bending forward.

2. Avoid keeping an arm outreached either forward or sideways. Such posture not only leads to rapid fatigue, but also reduces the precision in general level of skill.

3. Arm movement should be either in the opposition to each other or otherwise symmetrical. Moving one arm by itself sets up static loads on the trunk muscles.

4. The most favorable working heights for hand work while standing is 2 to 4 inches below the elbow. If heavy work is being done then the working surface needs to be lower in the range of 6 to 8 inches below the elbow.

5. It is often desirable to be able to adjust the working height of tables to suit individuals because of the potential great differences between people's heights and work needs.

Video Display Terminal (VDT) Determine associate's knowledge for need of stretch/exercise breaks and types of exercises appropriate for the workstation.

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Possible Corrective Measures:

1. Follow the procedure for a VDT Workstation Assessment and education the need for periodic breaks from working at a VDT terminal.

2. Conduct a Workstation Assessment

3. Demonstrate exercises appropriate for the workstation.

4. Provide with a copy of workstation stretches/exercises.

Fleet Loss Control Program Loss control is a management priority. Management must rely largely on vehicle operators to supervise their own actions behind the wheel. Management must communicate a strong fleet safety policy and support it with emphasis on driver selection, testing, training and the development of defensive driving techniques.

Loss control is a management responsibility, which includes the development and implementation of an effective program suited to specific operational needs.

AWC Statement of Fleet Loss Control Policy Motor vehicle accidents can be prevented. Through such prevention, injury can be avoided and costs can be reduced with a resulting increase in the well-being of our company.

It is the policy of AWC that every effort be made to prevent motor vehicle accidents. It is the responsibility of all personnel (managers, supervisors and drivers), to comply with this policy.

The fleet loss control program, under the direction of the Terminal Manager consists of:

1. Driver selection procedures

2. Ongoing defensive driving training

3. Vehicle selection, inspection and maintenance procedures

4. Accident investigation and analysis procedures

5. Accident review board (safety committee)

6. Evaluation of individual and facility safety performance

The effective integration of fleet loss control into the daily conduct of business will contribute significantly to the continued success and prosperity of our company and its associates.

Driver Selection When associates are allowed to drive a company vehicle, or to drive any vehicle for the company, they are entrusted not only with the operation and care of the vehicle, but also, the company's reputation.

Associates shall be evaluated and selected as to their driving ability if they are to drive on company business.

To evaluate associates as drivers, management shall:

1. Ascertain that the associate has a valid driver's license, including a Commercial Driver License (CDL) where warranted.

2. Ensure that the associate is qualified to operate the specific type of vehicle.

3. Review the associates' knowledge of vehicle operation and safe driving techniques by conducting a written examination and driving test.

4. Review the associate's Motor Vehicle Record (MVR) annually (more frequently if reasons warrant) to evaluate the individual's driving experience and observance of traffic laws.

5. Review past driving performance and work experience through previous employers' reference checks.

Driver Performance A review of the driver's over-the road performance is a critical component of this company's fleet loss control program. Performance shall be monitored during the selection/screening

Page 69: Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF - kiosk.autowc.com

Section 11 Page 62

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

process as well as at periodic intervals throughout the driver's career using information obtained from motor vehicle records and accident file data.

A formal review of the driver's motor vehicle record (MVR) shall be conducted on an annual basis (more frequently where warranted). The purpose of the review is to determine whether remedial driver training is warranted. The review is conducted with the driver, and becomes part of their file, as referenced above.

The following criteria, is used to measure driver performance based on accident/violation information obtained from MVRs and accident files:

A driver is unacceptable if the driver's accident/violation history in the past three years:

1. Includes one or more of the following violation convictions:

A. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs

B. Hit and run

C. Failure to report an accident

D. Negligent homicide arising out of the use of a motor vehicle

E. Operating during a period of suspension or revocation

F. Using a motor vehicle for the commission of a felony

G. Operating a motor vehicle without the owner's authority

H. Permitting an unlicensed person to drive

I. Reckless driving

J. Speed contest

2. Consists of any combination of preventable accidents and moving violation convictions which total four.

Drug Testing AWC's drug testing procedures have been developed and implemented in compliance with Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) regulations promulgated through the Department of Transportation (DOT). It is understood that local facilities will modify the corporate program based on applicable state/local drug testing regulations. For additional information see Corporate Drug Testing Policy.

The drug testing program is composed of the following elements:

1. Testing

A. Pre-employment

B. Reasonable Cause

C. Post-accident

D. Random

2. Record Retention

3. Associate Assistance Program

4. Medical Review Officer

Accident Recordkeeping, Reporting and Analysis AWC considers the elimination of all motor vehicle accidents as a major goal. To accomplish this task, it is paramount that all accidents be recorded and investigated. The investigation is used to identify needs for:

1. More intensive driver training and/or refresher training.

2. Improved driver selection procedures.

3. Improved vehicle inspection and/or maintenance activities.

4. Changes in traffic routes.

Motor vehicle accident recordkeeping procedures consist of the following components:

1. Documentation of causes and corrective action.

2. Management review to expedite corrective action.

3. Analysis of accidents to determine trends, recurring problems and the need for further control measures.

4. Compliance with DOT requirements where necessary.

Implementation of these procedures remains the responsibility of both the driver and manager.

Driver Responsibility Since the driver is the first person at the accident scene, it is important that they initiate the information-gathering process as quickly and thoroughly as is feasible.

Management Responsibility Management is responsible for obtaining the accident data from the driver through the reporting kit, information form, and/or by verbal communication. It is important for management to determine the extent of the accident, especially if it involves injury or death to the driver, passengers, or other parties.

Management should proceed with a formal investigation as soon as possible to determine the underlying causes as well as what can be done to prevent a similar occurrence in the future. The resulting accident report would be forwarded to the insurance claims office along with any additional support data (e.g., witness statements, photographs, police reports, etc.) and a copy sent to the Department of Transportation where warranted.

Preventable vs. Non-Preventable Accidents ANSI D15.1 provides the following important definitions relating to motor vehicle accidents:

1. A motor vehicle accident is defined as "any occurrence involving a motor vehicle which results in death, injury or property damage, unless such vehicle is properly parked. Who was injured, what property was damaged and to what extent, where the accident occurred, or who was responsible, are not relative factors."

2. A preventable accident is defined as "any accident involving the vehicle, unless properly parked, which results in property damage or personal injury and in which the driver failed to do everything they reasonably could have done to prevent or avoid the accident."

A properly parked motor vehicle is one that is completely stopped and parked where it is legal and prudent to park such a vehicle or to stop for the purpose of loading or unloading property. Cars stopped for the purpose of loading or unloading passengers are not considered parked.

Parking on private property shall be governed by the same regulations as apply on public streets and highways. A vehicle stopped in traffic in response to a sign, traffic signal or the police is not considered parked.

Section 11 Page 64

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

The determination of preventability of an accident is the function of AWC's accident review board, which is comprised of (at least three) representatives of management and the drivers.

The purpose of the accident review board is to:

1. Evaluate the circumstances surrounding an accident and the action to be taken by the driver

2. Determine if the accident was "preventable" or "non-preventable" in accordance with standard criteria

3. Provide a means for enforcing management and driver responsibilities

Vehicle Selection, Inspection, and Maintenance Proper selection and maintenance of equipment are an important aspect of this fleet loss control program. Reduced operational costs, reduced accidents from vehicle defects and improved public opinion are the direct results of a well implemented maintenance policy.

Vehicle Selection AWC's fleet maintenance program starts with the selection of vehicles with the understanding that the wrong equipment can result in excessive breakdowns, hazards to personnel, costly delays, poor service, or customer complaints. It is essential that AWC purchase vehicles which are designed for the specific job for which they are going to be used.

Fleet management must analyze transportation needs and determine what is expected of the vehicles in the fleet. An over-designed vehicle will involve too much of an initial cost as well as anticipated additional maintenance costs. An under-designed vehicle can involve a shorter life, more breakdowns, and higher overall maintenance cost.

Vehicle Inspection A documented program of pre-trip vehicle inspection is a critical component of the vehicle maintenance and loss control process. Detection and correction of a vehicle defect or deficiency reduces the risk of a mechanical condition contributing to an accident or vehicle breakdown which can result in death, injury and property damage, as well as missed deliveries, bad publicity, customer dissatisfaction, or on-the-road repair problems.

Documentation of the inspection process is maintained using a daily Company Vehicle Inspection Log conducted by the vehicle driver and a Maintenance Company Vehicle Inspection Log conducted by maintenance personnel. The report is designed for both pre-trip inspection purposes, and can also be used for periodic inspections while in transit. By keeping a copy of the vehicle condition report on the vehicle, the driver, mechanic or other interested parties can ascertain at a glance the known mechanical condition of the vehicle.

Driver training in proper vehicle inspection techniques is important, since it is the drivers who spend the most time with the vehicle, and are held accountable for its proper inspection.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSR) also require an annual inspection, by a qualified inspector, of all vehicles covered by these regulations including trucks, buses, tractors, full and semi-trailers, converter dollies, etc. Each piece of equipment is verified, through the vehicle condition report, that the inspection was performed.

AWC adopts the vehicle inspection requirements of the FMCSR for its entire fleet.

Transportation of Hazardous Materials Interstate transportation of hazardous materials is governed through the Federal Regulations promulgated by the Federal Highway Administration of the Department of Transportation (DOT). Most states/provinces and localities have either adopted the federal regulations as local law or promulgated their own regulations based on DOT requirements.

AWC does not transport any hazardous materials,

Driver Training The drivers hired by this company to operate a motor vehicle will have the basic skills and credentials necessary to perform this function as confirmed through the driver selection process. The purpose of the driver training program is to increase these skills and orient the drivers to this company's fleet safety policy, equipment and procedures.

Driver training include:

1. Training and indoctrination into the company safety policy and programs

2. Refresher training on defensive, incident-free driving

Driver Training AWC's company driver training program is divided into several levels: Initial, Refresher, & Remedial

1. Drivers must have had initial driver training. Company orientation will be conducted which will address specialized tasks associated with AWC work.

2. Refresher training is useful for regular drivers to update information on operational changes, new routes, cargo, equipment, government regulations, etc.

3. Remedial training covers problems of substandard performance which can be alleviated through corrective training. The need for remedial training is identified through customer complaints, accident involvement, MVR reviews, and/or evidence of vehicle abuse.

AWC uses several approaches to driver training:

1. Classroom training

2. In-vehicle training

3. Driver safety meetings

Topic-specific programs, usually are supported by videos, and are presented either on a one-to-one or self-study basis or in a driver safety meeting environment.

In-vehicle training is most effective for equipment familiarization, cargo handling, pre-trip inspection training, etc., and is recommended for conditions and situations that warrant closely controlled supervision.

AWC's driver training program includes (but is not limited to) the following areas:

1. Identification of driver trainers

2. Company rules and policies

3. Equipment familiarization

4. Routes

5. Defensive driving techniques

6. Government regulations

7. Cargo handling

8. Emergency procedures (See: Emergency Response Plan, Emergency Preparedness Posters, & Emergency Preparedness Manual)

9. Emergency warning devices

10. Specific trend-identified exposures

Revised: 02.2018 Doc ID: CORSAF.118

Fleet Loss Control Program Audit A fleet loss control program audit is necessary to ensure that each element of AWC's program is functioning properly.

The audit program also provides information on areas where the program needs to be updated due to changes in operations, regulations and/or exposures. The audit program results are essential to the accountability system which underlies the management approach to the overall program.

AWC's Fleet Loss Control Program Audit covers the following general areas:

1. Driver Qualification

2. Driver Training

3. Driver supervision

4. Vehicle Selection, Inspection, and Maintenance

5. Routing and Scheduling

6. Accident Reporting, Recording, and Analysis

AWC Automobile Policy Company-owned vehicles are to be used for Company business only.

Vehicles have been purchased to be used by authorized associates for the purpose of getting equipment to and from our facilities and transporting drivers on site during normal business hours.

Use of company vehicles for any clearly personal use is NOT authorized, unless prior case-by-case approval is specifically granted by the manager. If vehicles are knowingly used for unauthorized purposes, or by other than AWC associates, the offending associate (or driver assigned to the vehicle used) will be personally responsible for paying the entire amount of insurance deductible for any vehicle damage, and may be subject to corrective action up to and including termination.

The manager will have an annual "Motor Vehicle Report" (MVR) completed by the Department of Motor Vehicles for each person who may drive a company or customer vehicle on a regular basis. If the MVR reveals any of the violations listed under the heading "Selection of Company Drivers," or if actual observed driving performance is such that a driver will put the company at undue risk for safety or insurance reasons, that person will not be allowed to drive a company or customer vehicle.

All drivers of AWC must comply with the rules outlined in the Driver Safety Rules.

Maintenance Responsibilities Terminal Managers shall be responsible for appointing an individual to properly inspect company vehicles using a regular schedule. A maintenance log will be kept for all maintenance performed.

Driver Safety Rules

1. AWC endorses as company rules all applicable state/provincial motor vehicle regulations in relation to driver responsibility.

2. All accidents, regardless of severity, must be reported.

3. At no time are unauthorized riders, hitch-hikers, etc. allowed to ride in company vehicles.

4. Under no circumstances is a company vehicle to be driven by a non-associate except in emergencies or in case of repair testing by a mechanic.

5. Any driver who has a driver's license revoked or suspended shall immediately notify their supervisor or manager, and discontinue operation of the company or customer vehicles.9

6. Drivers must promptly report all summonses received for moving violations during or after business hours to their supervisor.

7. No driver shall operate a company or customer vehicle when their ability to do so safely has been impaired, affected or influenced by alcohol, drugs, medication, illness, fatigue, or injury.

8. Each driver is responsible to ensure that their vehicle is in safe operating condition and is not allowed to operate the vehicle with defective steering or brakes, worn tires, or any other defect that would inhibit safe operation during current and foreseeable weather and light conditions.

9 Operating any company vehicle while under a driver's license suspension, will result in loss of use of driving privileges

and consequently dismissal.

Environment Environmental knowledge covers everything around you. Hazards can appear at any time. Areas that were completely safe one moment can become unsafe. Machines can break, or get worn. Gases can be released into the air that can be potentially harmful if inhaled. Spills can cause falls or exposure problems for those that come into contact with the liquid. Individuals using unsafe procedures can bring harm to you. Hazards and hazardous materials are a part of all environments, stay alert and become familiar with the company's Hazard Communication Program.
