What are stop list items?
Electrical, Mechanical, Pneumatic, Hydraulic, Kinetic & Potential, Steam, Chemical, Thermal
What are types of Hazardous energy?
The overstretching or tearing of MUSCLES or TENDONS. Tendons are the dense fibrous cords of tissue that connect bones to muscles. The most common locations for a muscle strain are the hamstring muscles and the lower back
What is a Strain?
Sloping will be 1 foot vertical, 1.5 feet horizontal (34˚). Sloping/Shoring for excavations greater than 20 feet deep shall be designed by a registered P.E.. Type “C” soil is not to be benched.
What is Sloping?

(see diagram below) The ladder shall extend 3 feet above the excavation. Spoil shall be placed 2 feet or more back from the edge of the trench or excavation.
Wat are 4 foot depth requirements?
Keeping a site clean and clear of debris improves worker safety by creating fewer trip hazards
What is housekeeping?
Identify hazards associated with each task, eliminate the hazards from the work task, ensure that safety is the first thing discussed prior to the start of the shift,
What is the Purpose of the JSA?
Specific practices and procedures to safeguard employees from the unexpected energization or startup of machinery and equipment, or the release of hazardous energy during service or maintenance activities
What is Lock-out/Tagout?
Communicate and plan the move, determining the lift path and any obstacles. Both individuals should bend at the knees (not the waist), keeping their backs straight and lifting with their legs. Lift and move in sync, maintaining communication throughout
What is a TEAM lift?
Along with the 4 feet depth requirements listed above, additional measures are required prior to entry. Sloping or protective shielding (trench box) shall be in place. Protective systems must be able to resist all expected loads.
What are 5 foot depth or greater requirements?
Supervisors should schedule work around other contractors to avoid unforeseen hazards
What are other Trades/Contractors?
STAR(Stop, Think, Act, Review), Self check, Peer check, Stop/timeout, etc.
What are HOP tools? (Human and Organizational Performance Tools)

What is PPE?
Daily before work starts and as needed if conditions change. o After rainstorms, high winds, or other occurrence which may increase hazards. o When you can reasonably anticipate an employee will be exposed to hazards
