WSTF VPP Status WSTF / Honeywell VPP • OSHA Region VI Assessment performed August 2001 • Simultaneous NASA & Honeywell assessment • Assessment team included OSHA, SGE (process safety), and New Mexico State OSH (observers) • Pilot VPP assessment review for New Mexico OSH program (WSTF app. used as template) • Over 100 maintenance items corrected concurrent with assessment activities Sean Keprta (281) 483-7896 Stacey Nakamura (281) 483-4345
WSTF VPP Status (cont’d) WSTF / Honeywell VPP • Four “Star contingency” items identified • Improve hazard recognition -- training provided • Plan and implement machine guarding -- long and short term machine guarding plan in place • Institute effective ladder inspection process -- now subject to user inspection and annual integrity audit • Ensure integrity inspection performed and documented on all fall protection equipment -- now inventoried and subject to annual integrity audit Sean Keprta (281) 483-7896 Stacey Nakamura (281) 483-4345
WSTF VPP Status (cont’d) WSTF / Honeywell VPP • Contingency items were not formally noted in OSHA’s final report because of their confidence in WSTF’s corrective action process • All items have since been addressed • Formal VPP approval December 2001 • Flag ceremony conducted February 26, 2002 with OSHA, NM OSH, NASA HQ, JSC, and Honeywell Corporate Sean Keprta (281) 483-7896 Stacey Nakamura (281) 483-4345
WSTF VPP Status (cont’d) WSTF / Honeywell VPP Biggest Hurdles • Gaining understanding that VPP is above requirements This was particularly difficult when challenged to provide “regulations” for good Job Hazard Analysis practices - a good lesson in OSHA “expectations” • Ensuring that employee concerns (regulatory or not) are addressed objectively by management • Managing perceptions - use PEP as a measuring stick for effective communication Sean Keprta (281) 483-7896 Stacey Nakamura (281) 483-4345
WSTF VPP Status (cont’d) WSTF / Honeywell VPP What Works • Benchmark, benchmark, benchmark Include labor representatives in benchmarking • Use frequent peer & mock assessments • HQ PV process is a good preparation • Let employees learn the regulations • Turn your safety & health professionals into consultants Answer questions and resist temptation to direct compliance because “you know what’s best” Sean Keprta (281) 483-7896 Stacey Nakamura (281) 483-4345

Enhancements to Mishap Prevention - JSC • Root Cause Training (over and over again) • Pursuing COTS Software • United Space Alliance is using “REASON” • Pushing to have “Root Cause” facilitation software linkage in IRIS2 • Re-Affirm Top Management Commitment to S&H Program • Assisting in New Center Director Transition • Aggressive Cof F / M&O Budget Partnering with JSC Center Operations Directorate • 2002 PEP results – employee write in comments • “Where’s the safety fix-it money?” • Need Code Q Support during HQ-level POP Process Sean Keprta (281) 483-7896 Stacey Nakamura (281) 483-4345
WSTF Strategic Planning for Injury Reduction Objective 5-1 “Reduce each year’s injury and severity rates by 20 percent per year from the 1998–2000 baseline.” • This is an aggressive objective to ensure WSTF pursues improvement from VPP application baseline. • WSTF philosophy -- “If zero is possible we must target it to have hope of achieving it.” Sean Keprta (281) 483-7896 Stacey Nakamura (281) 483-4345
WSTF Strategic Planning for Injury Reduction Achievements • NASA, HTSI, & Lynx (environmental subcontractor) all met 20% reduction in 2001 • Additional 20% reduction achievable for ALL WSTF employees in 2002 • Significant improvement is evident in L&M (construction & logistics subcontractor) performance since Summer 2001 Sean Keprta (281) 483-7896 Stacey Nakamura (281) 483-4345
