basket to prevent any debris or particles from entering the drainage system while allowing the
fluid to flow through.
 Supervisor to monitor the fluid going before going through the drainage system. Use filter paper
or filter membrane. This paper is specifically designed to capture and retain smaller particles or
contaminants that may be present in the fluid. This is used as a means of quality control to
ensure that the fluid being discharged meets the required standards set by the NEA. The filter
paper is placed in the container, basket or receptacle and the fluid is directed onto the paper. The
paper acts as a barrier, capturing any small particles or contaminants present in the fluid. This
allows for visual inspection of the fluids cleanliness and meets the NEA standards.
 The piping is immediately flushed with dry de-oiled air until completely dry. The dew point is
measured: the value to be obtained is -20 deg C, after stabilization of the dry air for a minimum
period of 30mins (no ai flow).
 No propellant gas is allowed to speed up the draining.
 All vents must remain open throughout the draining and the supervisor will check that cannot be
totally or partially blocked accidentally.

4.8 WORKING AT HEIGHT

LADDER:

 Only use a fiberglass ladder, as it provides better insulation against electrical hazards
compared to other types of ladders.
 Ensure that the ladder is in good condition and made of sound material. Check for
any cracks, defects, or signs of wear and tear before use.
 Obtain the necessary Permit to work (PTW) approval before starting any work
involving the ladder.
 Brief the work group about the fall prevention plan (FPP) to ensure everyone is
aware of the safety measures and procedure.
 Avoid overarching or leaning backwards while on the ladder to maintain stability
and prevent falls.
 Always maintain three points of contact with the ladder while climbing, such as two
hands and one foot or two feet and one hand.
 Secure tools with a lanyard and attach the lanyard to the ladder or wrist to prevent
them from falling and causing injuries.
 Do not carry tools while climbing the ladder. Instead, use a tool belt if necessary to
keep your hands free and maintain balance.
 Do not place loose materials or objects on the ladder platform, as they can cause
instability and accidents.
 When using a platform ladder, make sure it is fully open and rests on stable and firm
ground for maximum stability.
 Avoid using the ladder on slopes or slippery surfaces, as it can increase the risk of
falling.
 Before each use, inspect the ladder for ant damage, loose parts or defects that may
compromise its safety.
 Protect the ladder base with anti-slip soles to prevent it from sliding or shifting
during use.

compromise the stability and safety of the lift.
 It is crucial that the operator has received proper training and has attended and
passed an accredited boom lift & scissor lift operator course approved by the
ministry of manpower.
 Conduct a site assessment to ensure that the area and ground are suitable for
operating and boom lift or scissor lift. Consider factors such as terrain, obstructions,
and overheard hazards.
 Select an appropriate boom lift or scissor lift that is suitable for the specific task at
hand. Different lifts have varying capabilities and reach, so choose one that matches
and requirements of the job.
 Inspect and certify the boom lift or scissor lift before use. And an authorized
examiner should verify that the lift is in good condition and meets safety standards.
 Always wear the necessary personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow
precautionary measures, such as using a safety harness and securing tools and
materials.
 Barricade the area around the lift or prevent unauthorized entry. This helps to
maintain a safe working zone and minimize the risk of accidents.

and implementing appropriate safety measures.
 Regularly inspect the scaffold for any looseness, fault, or defects. If any issues are
identified, report them immediately to the relevant authority for prompt repair and
resolution.
 Avoid placing any extra materials on the scaffolding platform. This helps maintain a
clear and uncluttered working area, reducing the risk of trip, slip and fall.
 Before each use, check the safety harness to ensure it is in good condition. Look for
sings of wear. Damage or deterioration if any issue is found, replace the harness
before starting work at height.
 Ensure that all working platforms are fully guarded with toe boards. These boards
prevent tools, equipment, or materials from falling off the scaffold protecting
workers below.
 Secure tools and equipment with lanyard when working at height. This prevents
them from falling and causing injuries. Keep all tools properly stored in bags, boxes
or containments to maintain a tidy working environment.
 Scaffold supervisors should ensure that materials are passed up the scaffold using a
human chain method with workers forming a staggered line. This helps eliminate
overreaching.
 Avoid overloading the scaffold and ensure compliance with the maximum safe
working load (SWL) of 220 kg/m2. Also, follow the fall prevention plan to minimize
the risk of accidents.
 Scaffold supervisors should establish exclusion zones before work commences. This
ensures that unauthorized individuals stay clear of the work area, promoting safety.
 Remind workers of the hazards associated with working on scaffolds and emphasize
the importance of not climbing or overreaching while on the scaffold. Scaffold
supervisor or any task supervisor should verify that the scaffold is safe with toe
boards in place before allowing workers to use it.

4.9 WORKING ON A CONFINE SPACE

 Conditions in surrounding areas must be checked including Oxygen test to ensure

that neighbouring activities will not bring any changes which could be detrimental
to confine space activities to be performed.
 Fires and explosions can result from accumulations of flammable vapours and/or
dust in the presence of a source of ignition. Mixtures of flammable vapours and air
can only be ignited if the hydrocarbon air ratio is within the flammable range. In
general, if the oxygen content in hydrocarbon air mixtures can be maintained below
10% by volume, a fire/explosion cannot occur. Hot work must not be undertaken if
the explosive meter reading exceeds 1% LEL (Low Explosive Limit) without
breathing apparatus, is 19.5%. Monitoring alarm system shall not be set to activate
about 20% LEL. Provie workers with good working conditions gas monitoring
equipment.

 Chemical substances can be toxic. Toxic substances can cause injury, acute or long-
latency illness, or death, depending on the concentration and duration of exposure
and the characteristics of the substances. A toxic substance can cause harm by
inhalation, ingestion, skin or eye contact. It can affect the tissue at the point of
contact, or organs remote from the point of contact. Corrosives destroy the tissue
and may leave permanent injury or scars. Hazard information of the substances
must be sought on the Material Safety Data Sheets and to be submitted to AIR
LIQUIDE- YES HSE prior mobilization to site. Gas testing must be carried out before
worker entries inside the confined space. It is recommended that a level of the
chemical is not greater than 50% of the relevant published Occupational Exposure
Limit (OEL).
 A qualified worker who is experienced and trained in all aspects of confined entry
work shall be present to supervise workers who are in confirmed spaces and shall
be responsible for all work and rescue procedures at all times. An appropriate
number of standby workers trained in first aid (CPR) and rescue procedures must be
in attendance and continuously monitor the workers in the confined space.
 Ensue that a hard barricade is in place around the confine space to prevent
unauthorized personnel from entering. This barricade should be sturdy and clearly
marked to indicate and restricted area.
 Provide at least one ingress (entry) and one egress (exit) point for the confine
space. These access points should be properly designed and maintained to allow for
easy entry and exit.
 The ingress and egress point should be strategically located to provide sufficient
exit options in case of emergency. This ensures that the personnel can quickly and
safely evacuate the confined space if needed.
 Clearly mark and identify the ingress and egress point using signage or visual
indicators to ensure that are easily recognizable and accessible during an
emergency situation.
 Regularly inspect and maintain the ingress and egress points to ensure that are free
from obstructions, such as debris or equipment, that could hinder safe entry or exit.
