5. General Comments on Work in the STAR Facility Work Planning: - N.B. All work undergoes Work Planning. Most of this is what’s known as Worker Planned work. Before you start on a task think about what you’re going to do, how you’re going to do it, what the hazards are, and how you’ll minimize these possible Hazards. - As a General rule, Bob or Bill should always know who will be working in the Facility, and on what, every week. Please make every effort to keep us informed. Safety: - All work should be performed in compliance with Safety rules. If there is a conflict between schedule and Safety, Safety must take precedence in all cases. - If anyone is ever in doubt about how to perform a task, please contact Bob, Bill, or both. - In the course of accomplishing your tasks throughout the Shutdown, if anything becomes apparent on how we could work safer, please bring them to Bill or Bob’s attention. - If you see anyone doing something that appears unsafe, or somehow incorrect, please bring it to Bob or Bill’s attention. Housekeeping: - In performing work in the STAR Facility please clean up after yourself at the end of each day. Examples are picking up cable tie remnants, paper from Label makers, misc. “litter” that results from your work.
