JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS FOR THE PREPARATION & APPLICATION OF

GROUTING TO PUMP SKIDS

COMPANY/ PROJECT NAME or ID/ LOCATION ( City, State) DATE NEW
February 20, 2014 REVISED PAGE 1 of 2

WORK ACTIVITY (Description):

Concrete is scored to provide a friction surface for other applications such as epoxy and grout. The surface is chipped by a pneumatic gun called a chipping-
hammer. An enclosure will be erected to create a temperature controlled environment condusive to storing grouting material so that an acceptable temperature
can be achieved to mix and apply the grout material. Material will then be mixed using a concrete mixer which will be ventilated outside of the enclosure. The
grouting material will then be poured and appied to create a bond to the pump skids.

¹JOB STEPS ²POTENTIAL HAZARDS ³CRITICAL ACTIONS TO MITIGATE HAZARDS
1. Set-up job Line of fire, Struck by vehicle or air Be aware of surroundings
a. Position hose under pressure, muscle Use safe on-site driving practices
compressor strains, sprains, trip hazards, falls Use spotter(s) for backing and positioning of compressor and all vehicles
downwind from from ladder delivering tools, equipment and material to work location
work area Perform safe lifting techniques
b. Chock wheels Use buddy system to lift and carry items >53 lbs.
c. String hoses Inspect hose connections and whip checks at start of each shift
d. Pin hose Ensure safe ladder installation and usage
connections Practice good housekeeping habits
e. Install whip checks Be aware of surroundings at all times
at compressor &
chipping hammer
f. Install and climb
ladders

4. Chip concrete using chipping Flying concrete debris, Wear proper PPE for task including faceshield
gun to approximately 1” depth foreign objects in eyes, Use “wet control” methods to keep airborn silica dust to minimum
inhalation, compressed air When engineering controls cannot be implemented an N-95 dust mask or
(lacerations), NIOSH approved respirator is recommended to be worn
Perform proper body positioning to eliminate static postures
Practice good housekeeping habits

5. Erect enclosures using Falls, pinchpoints, lacerations, strains, Inspect and perform safe fall protection techniques
scaffold materials sprains, struck by, electric shock Practice safe lifting techniques & use the buddy system to lift and carry items
a. Attach >53 lbs.
tarp/visqueen to Wear proper PPE when handling tools and materials
scaffold Ensure safe ladder installation and usage
b. Climb ladders, Perform safe aerial & scissors lift techniques
c. Operate and work Use spotters
from aerial & Use safe hand & power tool practices including inspection of tools, chords and
scissors lift GFCI’s
d. Use hand and Use right tool for job
power tools Practice good housekeeping habits

12. Mixing grout Strains, sprains, pincn-points, Ventilate mixer exhaust directly outside of enclosure
a. Lift & position bags inhalation, ingestion, skin irritation, Continuously use a four gas monitor to ensure carbon monoxide level
& pales to pour eye injuries remains below the action level
materials into mixer Practice safe lifting techniques
b. Pour finished grout Use buddy system to lift and carry items >53 lbs.
into wheel barrow Use “wet control” methods to keep airborn silica dust from resin to a minimum

respirator is recommended to be worn
Wear proper PPE when handling tools and materials
Wear nitrile-leather gauntlet gloves
Wear safety glasses & face-shield when mixing & pouring
Practice good housekeeping habits

14. Applying grout, Strains, skin irritation, static Wear proper PPE
postures Use good body mechanics & change body position often

15. De-mobe from work area Strains, sprains, pinch-points, Wear proper PPE when handling tools and materials
a. Remove struck by Practice safe lifting techniques
tarps/visqueen and Use buddy system to lift and carry items >53 lbs.
scaffolding Use spotter(s) for backing all vehicles, removing tools, equipment and material
materials from work location
b. Remove any Practice good housekeeping skills
unused materials
c. Remove tools
d. Remove equipment

¹ Each Job or Operation consists of a set of steps. Be sure to list all the steps in the sequence that they are performed. Specify the equipment or other details
to set the basis for the associated hazards in Column 2

² A hazard is a potential danger. What can go wrong? How can someone get hurt? Consider, but do not limit, the analysis to: Contact - victim is struck by or
strikes an object; Caught - victim is caught on, caught in or caught between objects; Fall - victim falls to ground or lower level (includes slips and trips); Exertion
- excessive strain or stress / ergonomics / lifting techniques; Exposure - inhalation/skin hazards. Specify the hazards and do not limit the description to a single
word such as "Caught"

³ Aligning with the first two columns, describe what actions or procedures are necessary to eliminate or minimize the hazards. Be clear, concise and specific.
Use objective, observable and quantified terms. Avoid subjective general statements such as, "be careful" or "use as appropriate".
