Project Description & Complexity and Hazards Associated with the Work
The project involves the design and construction of EOC & Warehouse for the Civil Defense of
Resistencia City, located in the province of Chaco, Argentina. This work is divided in four (3) areas:
area 1 corresponds to EOC building for emergency operations and guard shack vault; area 2 utility
services (energy and backup, sanitary sewer treatment and water services). Area 3, warehouse
facility and Rip-rap parking lot, warehouse use to store humanitarian aids like food supplies, housing
aids and helping tools. Parking lot is for vehicles. This three zones require material handling
potentially dangerous as cement, additives, etc.., hydro sanitary and electrical works, steel
reinforcement, using tools and equipment that can cause burns, loss of hearing, punishing, deep
wounds and amputations. The higher risks are the noise produced by equipment’s and work at
heights. Another major threat to all stages is the wastes, groundwater evacuation and debris
disposal.
TASK HAZARD CONTROLS

Advanced Planning
Hazard Recognition, Innovative Work or Program
This project involved different risks for workers, which are potentially dangerous during the
execution of each activity. The most common risks are: work on platforms or at height,
works with adverse weather, the cutting operations and electrical work. From experience,
the company has always been a constant effort to ensure the safety of workers through
programs of practical - theoretical and training simulation in order to train skilled and
unskilled laborers to any health or occupational risk.
The commitment of the company focuses on providing tools and personal protective
equipment suitable for performing any work activity, and before to begin any work we keep
safe the area with an enclosure and prevention signs to protect workers. Also, we use a
tight control of project personnel, in order to prevent access of foreign people to work area,
and for visitors, we communicate the dangers that they are exposure; then we provide the
appropriate PPE to bring safety into the project.

Management Involvement
Subcontractor Involvement, Training, Innovative Efforts and Housekeeping
The overall safety of human life is our prime concern. In conjunction with protection of
life, health and well-being of all people involved, protection to property is also important.
Provide to the workers the elements that permit them to contribute to their integral
welfare: familiar, occupational, recreational, and health, in the occupational part, offering
them safety is fundamental for us.
It is our social responsibility to train the worker and to provide feedback before, during
and after each activity through specialized people to ensure job security.
In the three (3) zones of the project we select waste material and debris by type and
collected it in appropriate locations. Also we made storm-water drainage to avoid
diseases and pests.
To ensure safety, every week we held a meeting to prevent threats and risks in and out
of the work.

Employee Involvement
Training, Innovative Efforts and Housekeeping
During the development and execution of the work we must assess worker's technical
skills and knowledge of risks, through preparation and training practices.
Waste management is done through cleaning and recycling, which is made by a team
of workers that rotates each month to make the cleaning of the work areas, the offices
and their respective rooms.
Before entering new employees to this project, the company is responsible for
providing a theoretical-practical course on work at height to improve employee skills.
This training is done through EEII and STECON (Seguridad Stefani Construcciones),
and it is mandatory for any person who works in a construction company. All workers
must be certified to perform their functions in height works, according to the social
protection law 19587, Decree No. 351/79 (articles 1 to 10), April 21, 1972.
Occupational health is another important factor considered by the company, which
ensures the integrity of each person, providing a learning service and appropriate PPE
to perform each activity.

Safety Incentive Program
Method of Award, Type, and Frequency
The practical way to promote safety will be done through several procedures to grant
the awards: the first one is related to safety meetings and the theoretical and practical
courses offered by the professional risk insurance company. It includes a feedback on
the risks involved and the prevention method using signs, fences, and appropriate
ways to storage equipment, tools and materials. The course also emphasizes the use
of personal protective items for each type of work performed, and the previous
measures and preparations, before starting the required work.
The second procedure corresponds to the direction and direct supervision of the safety
inspector for each worker, who identifies the risks that the employees face. So, the
safety inspector, or competent person in charge, should check and correct any failure,
and choose the best solution and most efficient way to decrease the frequency of
existing hazards.
The third procedure is related to the methodology to learn to work. The person, who
commits a mistake against his safety or the safety of the group, must have a
constructive conversation with the supervisor, or the competent person, to understand
the importance of complying with workplace safety requirements. After the employee
understands the consequences of his improper behavior involved, he could return to
work.
Finally, every month, the security committee awards a monetary bonus and a special
helmet to the best worker, the one who has complied with all procedures in the safety
area, in order to emphasize the theme of "No Lost Time Injuries, I work safely and
The Safety Born in your Heart… Protect You."
