4 Doc. Type: Version n : 4.0 Safety Manager: F. Callaert Version date: January 2012 Page:4/13 The two parties wish to conclude an agreement in relation to the welfare of the Contractor s employees in accordance with the provisions of the Act of 4 August 1996 on the welfare of workers in the performance of their work, and more specifically with Article 9. The contractor shall indemnify CG as the principal for all claims made by the contractor s employees or claims made by the authorities. IT HAS BEEN AGREED AS FOLLOWS: 1. CONTRACTOR'S OBLIGATIONS The contractor will perform a risk analysis prior to the work activities. CG will make available a template (blank risk analysis) if necessary. The contractor will inform his employees (and temporary workers) about the dangers and the safety, health and environmental agreements that have been reached with the contractor. It is necessary to take account of the health monitoring aspect. The relevant prevention advisors-medical officers of both parties will enter into consultations if need be on this subject. The instructions must be fully understood. The contractor shall equally inform his subcontractors, among other things, on the basis of the following guidelines and the risk analysis that has been implemented. The contractor shall verify whether the employees of the subcontractor(s) have been informed adequately regarding the risks that are present when the work activities are implemented. The contractor will cooperate with the coordination of the works via his site manager, who will also verify whether the agreements that have been made are being acted on. The subcontractor will also appoint a site manager. CG s project manager will in turn be responsible for monitoring the agreements that have been made. The contractor will confirm that he will comply with the agreement. If necessary, immediate measures will be taken if the principal sends the contractor a notice of default. The contractor is obliged to notify the project manager whenever he deploys subcontractors. The subcontractor shall also sign and comply with the required fire safety and work permits. (see point 3) The contractor shall himself provide his personnel with the necessary personal protection equipment. The PPE must comply with the applicable legislation and carry a CE mark. Contractors or their personnel who arrive at CG s premises or sites without safety shoes, safety glasses and a safety helmet will be refused access. (see point 4.4) The contractor shall comply with all social legislation and directives with respect to all his workers. The contractor s workplace accident insurance must be kept regularly up to date and must remain up to date from the start until the end of the works. 2. PRINCIPAL S AND CONTRACTOR'S OBLIGATIONS The necessary agreements will be made at an introductory meeting. The contractor will accept improvements as regards the environment and the welfare of his employees in the context of the works to be performed. Enquiries will also be made into whether a safety coordinator needs to be present. See the Royal Decree concerning temporary and mobile construction sites. The works schedule will be modified if it turns out that there are unacceptable risks. Both the principal and the contractor will notify the safety, health and environmental agreements, based on the risk analysis, to their relevant employees. These agreements must be complied with and monitored, and if necessary adjusted. 3. PERMIT PROCEDURE A work permit must ALWAYS be issued every time that an external firm performs activities on CG premises or sites. Depending on the activities to be performed, an ordinary work permit, a fire permit or a long-term work permit will be drawn up, based on the internal procedure for Work and Fire Permits. 3.1 Work permit CG s project manager will draw up the work permit before the works commence. The work permit must ALWAYS be accompanied by a prior risk analysis of the work activities. No work permit will be issued and the work activities cannot take place without this risk analysis. The date also needs to be entered correctly. CG s project manager will send the permit to the department head where the works are to be performed, to the other departments concerned and to the prevention advisor. The prevention advisor will if necessary propose additional safety measures. Finally, the work permit will also be signed by the (sub)contractors, who will ALWAYS keep the work permit and the risk analysis at the location of the works.

5 Doc. Type: Version n : 4.0 Safety Manager: F. Callaert Version date: January 2012 Page:5/ Fire permit A fire permit is used to prevent fire and explosion hazards, which may arise in the case of open fires, naked flames or heat sources (welding, flame cutting, soldering, angle grinding, burning off paint or varnish, grinding metal, etc.). This permit must be requested from CG s Project Manager whenever this is required when performing works. The ISPPW (Internal Service for Prevention and Protection at Work) must always give permission before works commence, by signing this fire permit. The permit is valid for 1 (one) day and if necessary can be renewed one day at a time. The fire permit and the risk analysis must ALWAYS be present at the place where the works are being carried out. The most important measures that need to be taken into account for works requiring a fire permit are: remove, protect or cover flammable substances and materials with a suitable screen before starting work; place suitable extinguishers that are ready for use in the vicinity of the works; appoint a permanent watchman who is informed about safety measures if this has been agreed with CG s project manager and the ISPPW. check whether equipment and accessories are in good condition and set up gas bottles in a logical and safe way before starting work; pay attention to glowing sparks and where they land during the work; it is essential to continue to monitor the worksite for at least 2 hours after work ends. The porter/night watchman must always be notified so he can pay extra attention to those worksites during his rounds. notify CG s project manager at the end of works which required a fire permit; always work with equipment which complies with the ARAB and AREI requirements. 3.3 Long-Term (LT) Work Permit Where a contractor regularly performs the same work, a Long-Term Work Permit can be issued for a fixed period. The procedure for obtaining a LT work permit is the same as that for obtaining an ordinary work permit. A work permit must never be issued for work involving the use of open fires or where there is a risk of fire. No Long-Term Work Permit will be issued for works performed at or near certain installations. The contractor will always make advance arrangements in consultation with the project manager regarding the time when work is to be carried out. The project manager will consult with and make agreements with the department manager where the work is to be performed. The project manager will notify the porter/reception, as well as the department manager where the work is to be performed. The contractor shall always have the signed Long-Term Work Permit in his possession at the location where the work is to be performed. Every time that the contractor arrives at the porter/reception before starting work, the name of the workers, the date of the work and the arrival and departure times must be noted in the logbook. 4. GENERAL GUIDELINES CG POWER SYSTEMS BELGIUM NV / CG HOLDINGS BELGIUM NV 4.1 Access to the company Only persons who are needed for the implementation of specified tasks in the contract or order are allowed to access the company premises. Such persons shall report every day to the visitor entrance where they will be given a name badge. This badge must always be worn in a visible place and returned to the porter/reception. The first time he is registered at the entrance, the visitor will wait until he is collected by the project manager who will follow up the work; otherwise the visitor will be sent to the relevant manager. The visitor must perform the work at the designated site. Access to other buildings or installations is not allowed without prior permission. It is strictly forbidden to bring image recording equipment onto the company s premises. Any recording of images requires express permission. The project manager may grant permission to make image recordings in exceptional cases (e.g. for the purposes of the work to be performed).

6 Doc. Type: Version n : 4.0 Safety Manager: F. Callaert Version date: January 2012 Page:6/13 Where there are doubts, permission should be obtained from the HR manager.
