SAFETY - RELATED WORK PRACTICES Responsibility: Host Employer: Host Employer: The host employer must inform contract employers of any hazards related to the work being performed and share any information about their installation that the contract employer needs to make the required safety related assessments. The host employer is also responsible for reporting any worker violations to the contract employer. InfraRed Imaging Solutions Inc. CSA Z462-12 WORKPLACE ELECTRICAL SAFETY

5. SAFETY - RELATED WORK PRACTICES Responsibility: Contract Employer: Contract Employer: The contract employer must ensure that any information about these hazards are relayed from the host employer to the their workers, and ensure that their workers follow the work practices required by the standards AND any safety related work rules required by the HOST employer. InfraRed Imaging Solutions Inc. CSA Z462-12 WORKPLACE ELECTRICAL SAFETY

6. The contract employer shall advise the host employer of: (a) any unique hazards presented by the contract employer’s work; (b) any unanticipated hazards found during the contract employer’s work that the host employer did not mention; and (c) the measures the contractor took to correct any violations reported by the host employer under Clause 4.1.5.1.2 and to prevent such violations from recurring.
