1 Safety Initiatives within DOTD Chris Mcmorris DOTD Program Supervisor (Safety)

2 Safety Initiatives within DOTD As an employee we encounter the potential for injury from the time we leave our homes until we return there. Please think first and then react SAFE.

3 Safety Initiatives within DOTD Even though you may not be aware of it, all jobs have the potential for a Confined Space!

4

5 Safety Initiatives within DOTD Confined Spaces Why would Roadway Transportation need to train employees on Confined Spaces? What is the likelihood of an incident?

6 Safety Initiatives within DOTD According to some studies it is said that about 90 deaths involving Confined Spaces occur every year. Some studies show that about 40% of the Confined Space fatalities involve employees attempting to rescue.

9 What is a Confined Space? A confined space is an enclosed area with limited space and accessibility. These spaces may have the potential for Atmospheric Hazards, Engulfment Hazards, and/or Entrapment Hazards. A confined space allows an employee to bodily enter and perform assigned work, has limited access and egress, and is not designed for continuous occupancy.

10 Confined Space Program Questions 1. Types of Training Competent Person General Knowledge 2. Types of Confined Spaces Assessments or they Land Based/Maritime 3. Is Rescue Assistance Required Permit or Non-Permit 4. Necessary Equipment Monitor Rescue Equipment

11 Safety Initiatives within DOTD What types of Confined Spaces does the highway department have? Culverts / Pipes Manholes Catch Basins Pontoon Barges

12 Safety Initiatives within DOTD Tunnel Pits Moveable Bridges Lower Levels on Ferry Boats Box Girders Sewer Pump Stations

13 Culvert Entry Evaluation Flow Chart > 30 to < 72 Is length 50 ft. Yes No Rise < 60 Rise 60 No Is length 300 ft. Yes 72 Rise Yes Is there more than one bend in the culvert alignment? No No Is length 100 ft. Follow LADOTD Confined Space Entry Program Yes All sanitary sewers. Is there history of atmospheric or physical hazards at this location? Follow alternate entry procedures. Yes Is there more than one bend in the culvert alignment? No special Requirements Reference:

14 Safety Initiatives within DOTD Where are we with Confined Spaces in the department? Competent person training has been scheduled General knowledge training has been implemented Confined Space Policy has been revised Assessments are being worked on Monitors have been purchased New spec is being finalized

15 Safety Initiatives within DOTD DOTD Personal Injury Yearly Trends Top 4 types of Personal Injuries within DOTD 1. Motor Vehicle Accidents 2. Slips, Trips & Falls 3. Debris or struck by objects 4. Strains, Lifting or Pulling

18 How to Address These Trends Strains & Sprains/Slips, Trips & Falls 1. Pre-Job Conferences (Supervisors be more involved) 2. Always teach employees through awareness 3. Always be proactive not reactive 4. Appropriate equipment for the job 5. Caution when exiting vehicles, stepping down 6. Practice safe lifting

19 How to Address These Trends Motor Vehicle Accidents 1. Manage Commitment & Employee Involvement in Driver Safety Program 2. Written Policies & Procedures 3. Driver License Checks 4. Crash Reporting & Investigating 5. Vehicle Maintenance & Inspection 6. Disciplinary Actions 7. Driver Training
