1. Corporate Health and Safety ArcelorMittal RS# 1 Rail Safety Introduction Draft date: Oct 5, 2011 Rev 1

2. 1 Guidelines, Scope and Purpose Guidelines This power point presentation identified as Rail Safety (RS) PPT #1 provides the AM Rail Safety standard AM ST 004, Fatality Prevention Assessment (FPA) and good practice guidelines to help each ArcelorMittal site to achieve compliance and implement good practice to prevent rail safety incidents. Each site must have specific written procedures, training, and job briefings in place to protect employees when operating and working on or near rail equipment. In addition each site is to have an effective ongoing layered evaluation and shop floor audit process that ensures rail safety practices and conditions are being followed. Scope These guidelines apply to all employees of ArcelorMittal business units, contractors, subcontractors, and hired labour employees performing work for or on behalf of ArcelorMittal on premises owned, rented or otherwise occupied by ArcelorMittal. The guidelines outlined in these trainings are indicative and may not be in contradiction with the local legal regulations nor the AM ST 004. Group Companies will as a minimum, follow the prevailing local regulations for all work in and around rail and rail equipment. Where the AM standard is more demanding, then it will apply. Purpose The objective of these training PPTs are to provide training and understanding regarding the hazards of rail operations and to prevent incidents which may cause harm to people, equipment, environment, or process. They also serve as templates for site customization for specific local regulatory processes or requirements of specific rules or equipment.

20. 19 AM FPA Rail Safety Version 3.2 Feb 2010 Fatality Prevention Assessment (FPA) is a self-assessment process that will help each site to improve. For Rail Safety, this was to be completed and all sites are to be at Level 3. All sites are ultimately to achieve Level 5 for improved performance. Complete listing of all questions for Rail Safety FPA are shown in the Appendix Eliminating fatalities through better compliance with assessment requirements: Level 0 Not organized and not yet under control. The plant has analyzed the legal requirements and the ArcelorMittal standard for Rail Safety. Level 1 An organization is in place. The plant has evaluated its gaps to comply with law and the ArcelorMittal standard and the necessary means. Level 2 All the rail activities are carried out in compliance with the defined organization. The plant has planned its compliance with law and the ArcelorMittal standard. Level 3 The organization complies with law and with the ArcelorMittal Standard Level 4 A monitoring system is defined with precise criteria for Rail Safety evaluation Level 5 Excellence - The organization is under PDCA.

21. HIRA Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (& Control)

22. 21 HIRA Risk Management Principles: –To identify actual and theoretical rail safety risk sources –To determine the level of risk –To prioritize action having ranked risks –To put in place treatments to manage the risk –To regularly monitor to ensure treatments are effective Risk Identification –normal operations –abnormal/emergency operations –maintenance –planned changes (either permanent or temporary) –activities of third parties (e.g. trespass and vandalism) –other non-routine activities –combination or sequence of events Identify stakeholders in the process: –Experts from within or outside the organization; –Staff and/or unions –Business partners –Customers, suppliers, contractors and service providers –Regulators and –Public groups and/or local community Many ways of identifying risks including: –Group Identification –Physical Inspections –Ad-hoc Risk Identification –Checklists –Existing Controls –Structured Techniques –Use of Previous Similar Studies –Use of Performance Statistics

23. 22 HIRA Version 1 014 May 31, 2011 The quality of both the identification and assessment of hazards and risks is dependent upon a comprehensive understanding of what makes the system work in terms: –human factors, equipment, infrastructure and relationships between them –understanding of the causes of a risk is essential if we are to treat risks properly The level of detail of the assessment should be sufficient to give confidence that all significant contributors to risk have been evaluated and that the controls/mitigation necessary to combat the risks have been identified First of all identify the scope, context and affected parties involved in the risk management process and should include: –what is (and isn’t) to be covered –where the risks are being considered and when they apply –who is involved or affected and –the type of risks being considered HIRA IS REQUIRED 18 TIMES BY THE FPA FOR RAIL SAFETY FPS, OHSAS Step by Step, Rail Safety

24. 23 Transport of Hot Metal and Slag - Examples Torpedo (bottle) cars and Slag Pot Carriers –HIRA must be done which consider all risks related with this special transport; Speed limits Break trough of hot metal Collision with heavy traffic High risks demand a HIRA

25. 24 Transport of Chemical Substances- Examples When handling and shunting tank wagons with chemicals according to RID, the employees must take extra care. (sulphuric acid, lime hydrate, CaD, …) Perform a Transportation Risk Analysis to accurately assess the risk associated to rail transportation of hazardous materials transport by rail. Establishes the safety requirements for the transportation and discharging of dangerous goods Provide the information needed by emergency response personnel to deal with transportation accidents and spills. Wagons must have placards and labels to identify dangerous goods. High risks demand a HIRA

26. Traffic Plan

27. 26 Traffic Plan Conduct comprehensive survey of plant site with mapping Identify hazards and action steps to eliminate Eliminate or reduce vehicle and pedestrian crossings as much as possible Identify high traffic vehicle and pedestrian areas and install safety measures and controls Install proper signs and crossing information Involve all necessary stakeholders as required in mapping, hazard identification and follow-up actions
