3 1. Purpose The purpose of this procedure is to outline BP s process for delivering effective management of Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) risks when working with Contractors. This procedure forms part of any contract between BP Australia Pty Ltd (BP) and an approved contractor for work to be performed at any property operated by BP Australia Pty Ltd, or for works under the control of BP Australia Pty Ltd. In these conditions the letters BP shall be read and construed in like manner as the words the Principal in the Conditions of Contract. Contractors working on behalf of BP must adhere to BP s HSE requirements. BP has the authority to require Contractors to stop work if they are breaching their WH&S obligations or permit conditions or if they consider the work being undertaken to be unsafe. 2. Scope The requirements specified in this procedure apply equally to BP employees, including retail employees, contractors and visitors Areas of Application These conditions shall apply at all times during which the Contractor is engaged in the works on site or within any of BP premises or working in BP facilities plant or fixtures whether or not within the boundaries of BP premises. 3. Terms and Definitions Accredited Contractors Contract Competent Person Are those approved by the BP Accredited Contractor System with training in the hazards and procedures associated with the oil industry and with experience in the field of their own particular expertise. Shall mean the agreement made between BP and the Contractor to execute the works described therein, including Purchase Orders or Agreements or verbal agreements An individual who can demonstrate that they have professional or technical training, knowledge, actual experience, qualifications and ability to enable them to: a. Perform duties at the level of responsibility allocated to them; b. Understand any potential hazards related to work (or equipment) under consideration c. Recognise and technical defects or omissions in a task (or Version Number: 1 emoc Number: Page 3 of 16

4 equipment) and the adverse implications for health and safety caused by the hazard(s) and/or omission(s); and d. Be able to specify corrective action(s) to mitigate the hazards. Contract Job Representative (CJR) A Contract Job Representative is appointed by the CO to typically manage the day-to-day activity and oversight responsibilities of a contract. A CJR will typically be a BP employee or independent party i.e. there will be no conflict of interest between the CJR and the contractor. Contract Owner (CO) The Contract Owner (CO) is the individual with single point accountability for achieving the objectives of a contract strategy. A Contract Owner will be a BP employee A Contract Owner is a leadership team member or extended leadership team member within the FVC business unit that requires the services to achieve the business objective Contractor Confined Space Is defined in the Contract covering the works, and includes their employees and sub-contractors The Safe Work Australia Code of Practice for Confined Spaces, February 2014 defines a confined space as: A confined space is determined by the hazards associated with a set of specific circumstances and not just because work is performed in a small space A confined space means an enclosed or partially enclosed space that: a. Is not designed or intended primarily to be occupied by a person; and b. Is, or is designed or intended to be, at normal atmospheric pressure while any person is in the space; and c. Is or is likely to be a risk to health and safety from: i. an atmosphere that does not have a safe oxygen level, or ii. iii. Contaminants, including airborne gases, vapours and dusts, that may cause injury from fire or explosion, or Harmful concentrations of any airborne contaminants, or engulfment Version Number: 1 emoc Number: Page 4 of 16

5 Confined spaces are commonly found in vats, tanks, pits, pipes, ducts, flues, chimneys, silos, containers, pressure vessels, underground sewers, wet or dry wells, shafts, trenches, tunnels or other similar enclosed or partially enclosed structures, when these examples meet the definition of a confined space in the WHS Regulations. The definition within some jurisdictions in Australia and New Zealand may align with AS/NZS2865 in which the wording differs but the interpretation is consistent with the above CoW CSE Entry Gas Test Certificate Golden Rules of Safety Hazardous Area Hot Work Control of Work Confined Space Entry Entry into a confined space shall refer to the entering of a person s breathing zone i.e. the head or upper body, projecting into a manhole or opening of a tank, compartment of a tank or pit. A person working over a confined space to perform works, when their breathing zone is likely to enter the confined space, is deemed to enter a confined space i.e. lying on the ground over a pit. Is the written certification given by the Issuing Authority that the equipment and immediate area in which work is proposed and described on the form has been tested for flammable vapours and oxygen and specified contaminants. The BP Golden Rules of Safety cover eight activities with particular potential to cause serious injuries, fatalities or incidents, and specify mandatory requirements in the following areas: Permit to Work, Ground Disturbance, Confined Space Entry, Working at heights, Energy Isolation, Lifting Operations, Driving Safety and Hot Work The area in which an explosive atmosphere is present or may be expected to be present in quantities such as to require special precautions for construction, installation and use of equipment. Hazardous Areas are classified in accordance with AS/NZS Work that involves either the use of or the creation of a flame, spark or energy discharge that could act as the ignition source for a fire or explosion. Hot work includes but is not limited to: Battery powered tools, Concrete Chipping, Digital Cameras (without an approved enclosure), Dry abrasive blasting, Electric Hand Tools or Lamps, Electronic Testing Equipment, Fires of any kind, Internal Combustion Engines, Mobile Phones, Smart Phones, Tablets, Power Cutting, Drilling, or Percussion Tools, Work on Version Number: 1 emoc Number: Page 5 of 16

10 5.2. Control of Work Ignition Sources and Hot Work Permits Equipment capable of generating any ignition sources are not permitted into work areas, except where approved by work permit or work clearance. Hot work requirements are detailed in PRO Hot Work. Failure to comply with these requirements will result in removal from the site Confined Spaces Entry into a Confined Space is prohibited except as authorised by a current Confined Space Entry Permit. Confined Space entry requirements are detailed in PRO Confined Space Entry Gas Test Tanks or vessels or excavations / open drains, sumps, etc., may contain hydrocarbon liquids, vapours, other atmospheric contaminants or oxygen deficient atmospheres. Before undertaking Hot Work requiring a Hot Work Permit (as specified in PRO ) or for all confined space entry or as required by the risk assessment for the task, a Gas Test Certificate and work permit must be obtained by the Contractor from the Issuing Authority. The frequency of Gas Testing as detailed on the work permit and persons authorized to test as detailed on the gas test certificate must be strictly adhered to. In the case of an expired Gas Test certificate, the Performing Authority is responsible for stopping work and alerting the Issuing Authority Electrical Equipment Earth leakage protection shall be used on all portable electric equipment and tools. All such equipment shall display a current electrical test tag by an authorised electrician and may be subject to inspection by BP Golden Rules All work undertaken on a BP site must comply with the BP Golden Rules of Safety. The Golden Rules outline the BP requirements intended to keep people safe at our sites. Information on the Golden Rules can be obtained by contacting the BP Site Representative Live Electrical Works Opening of enclosures while circuits remain energised is often required to facilitate inspections, troubleshooting and maintenance activities. Consideration shall also be given to the potential for hazardous atmospheres. Placing hands or any part of the body within 500mm of live and exposed conductors greater than 24 volts shall be considered live work and additional safeguards shall be in place to protect the person from direct or indirect contact with energised conductors. Opening of electrical enclosures where the person is not coming into close proximity with exposed electrical circuits, is not considered live electrical work under this local practice. Live Work should only be conducted when it is not practicable or no reasonable alternative exists to perform the electrical work de-energised. Live work requires the additional safety measures as detailed in PRO Energy Isolation clause 5.5. Version Number: 1 emoc Number: Page 10 of 16

11 Safe Work Method Statement / Risk Assessment / Work Permit / Checklist The Contractor shall provide a Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) prior to the commencement of work that details the way and manner in which the work is proposed to be carried out as well as proposed safety processes and equipment to be employed.
