Definitions

• Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA) – Documented plan identifies & plans for hazard mitigation associated with activities. Activities are general classes of separately definable construction work (e.g. excavation, foundations, roofing), are not time or location specific. AHA is a required section of CSSP.

• Task Hazard Analysis (THA) – Process may include dialog (pre-task plan, tail-gate meeting, etc.), document (checklist, permit, etc.) or knowledge (training, etc.) that identifies & plans for hazard mitigation associated with task. Task is a specific segment of a particular scope construction work that is time, condition, worker/location dependent. Documented THA is required on a graded approach (example: permits).

Construction Rigor Levels~ Screening Criteria Tool ~

Contractors will ensure that work is conducted by qualified and trained workers. When applicable, activities will be conducted by workers who are: certified, registered or otherwise documented as qualified by their trade/profession, or are licensed to perform that activity by the appropriate government organization.

Job Safety Hazard Evaluations or Activity Hazard Analysis and permits such as confined space and radiological work further address Sandia-specific qualifications and training is required for high rigor activities.

Work control is built into numerous FMOC processes. For example: CSSP review, pre-job and other scheduled meetings, building permits, additional permits such as hot work and cutting welding and brazing, and code and safety inspection by FMOC staff.

Feed back on FMOC construction activities is provided to contractors by several means such as immediate, on scene feedback by inspectors, quarterly meetings and the monthly newsletter.

Asbestos abatement

• Small-scale, short duration tasks.• Work defined as Class IV under

29 CFR 1026.1101

• Asbestos work defined as Class I, II or III under 29 CFR 1026.1101

Complexity and Coordination Issues

Uncertainty • Routine• New but similar to task

completed previously

• Job entry required to quantify hazards (i.e., magnitude of hazard not fully known)

• Accident recovery for damaged facilities

Location • Normally assigned work area under direct authority of supervisor

• Readily accessible area at SNL, including key-card areas for authorized personnel

• Special access controls requires escorting of unauthorized SNL personnel

• Remote, off-site work location

• Areas with restricted access due to special security or health concerns
