  2. iCard Training Instructions • Hand out iCardtool • Review this iCardtraining presentation • ReviewiCardpolicy • If time allows create a scenario for trainees to practice filling out the iCard

  3. iCard ... A Case for Change • The iCard was designed with the following elements in mind: • User data showed the following: • Users completing STAC prior to ever visiting the job site and performing hazard analysis • Redundant information associated with other H & S work processes • Repetitive unacceptable behaviors identified with current STAC card • Design the new tool so that it is helpful for the user to identify hazards within their personal work area • Minimize the time it takes to perform pre task hazard assessment including taking actions to mitigate the hazards without increasing the injury rates • Design the process so that it is personal and helps improve the culture during observations and interventions

  4. INTRODUCTION TheiCardis an individualcardused for Pre-Task Hazard Assessment of a work area by the individual worker prior to performing any tasks. As you complete this hazard assessment, you MUSTbe . . . • Thinkingabout the task to be performed • Thinkingabout the hazards associated with your tasks and the hazards within your work area • Thinkingabout ways to eliminate or minimizethe hazards The iCardwas designed for you to: • quickly and easily document the hazards within your work zone • use the hazard trigger list as a reference • and if you can’t eliminate or minimize the hazard yourself, then a process to ask for help before you initiate work MyiCard

  5. TheiCard Cover Page The cover page is self-explanatory. Write your first and last name and the company you work for (no initials, i.e., not J. Smith but John Smith). John Smith ABC Chemical Co. Then answer “Iwork safe on every job so i can attend/perform this personal activity today.” For example . . . “attend child's graduation.” attend child’s graduation Next: Read INSTRUCTIONS then flip to inside of card to briefly review some common hazards. IMPORTANT: TheiCardMUSTalways be filled out at the work location in order to effectively address hazards.

  6. The Hazard List Most hazards in the work area should be noted in this list. Review the hazard list as you are completing Job 1. If there is a hazard in your area you feel is NOT described here; simply add your new hazard(s) at the bottom (line 33, 34, and/or 35).

  7. B-28006/3/2014 JOB 1 (hazard assessment) Remove and replace pipe spool by T-101 on ground level using hand tools, crane, and rigging. Write the block you will be working in and the current date. Please use black/blue ink, or a #2 pencil. Write a brief job scope in the lines provided. If you received a Safe Work Permit for this job, this job scope should be similar to the one on the SWP. 3 26 Now (at the job site) begin assessing your hazards by looking around, observing, talking with co-workers, operations, and using the HAZARD list. Write the corresponding number of the hazard in the circle. 28 29 In this example, you have identified four (4) hazards that MUSTbe eliminated or minimized. As you eliminate or minimize the hazards, circle the numbers.

  8. B-2800 6/3/2014 JOB 1 (hazard assessment continued) Remove and replace pipe spool by T-101 • You have noted 4 hazards in the red circle for this job. • #3 (chemical inhalation) • #26 (slippery surfaces) • #28 (tipping hazards) • #29 (tool slippage) on ground level using hand tools, crane, and rigging. 3 Since you circled the hazards #3, #28 and #29 you Must have taken action to remove or guard the physical hazards in your area So what about #26 (slippery surfaces)? . . . Let’s say “algae build-up on the ground at the job site” that you were unable toeliminate or minimize? 26 28 29 Since you weren’t able to eliminate or minimize this hazard then you place 26 at the HN, have a discussion with one of the contacts noted on the front page and determine a safe path forward. Once a safe path forward has been decided and action taken to eliminate or minimize the hazard you can circle 26 in the red circle since you have eliminated the hazard. 26 had operations wash- down the area.

  9. B-28006/3/2014 JOB 1 (hazard assessment continued) Remove and replace pipe spool by T-101 on ground level using hand tools, crane, and rigging. Your INITIAL hazard assessment is now complete for this job. If you encounter additional hazards as the job progresses, simply note on the card as you go. 1 3 26 For example . . . 2 hours into your job, Operations permitted a different crew to do a Line and Equipment Opening near your job . . . So you should add #1 (adjacent work crews) to the circle and determine how you will eliminateor minimize. 28 29 Had discussion with my foreman. Foreman talked with SWP writer and they ask us to stop until the initial line break was complete. Continue to work safely and complete the job! THAT’S IT! ! ! 26 had operations wash- down the area. 1 operations ask crew to break until adjacent LEO was completed.

  10. Multiple Jobs or Days • The iCard has space available for up to three different jobs per card and requires a new assessment when you change jobs (i.e. scope changes, new SWP issued, change blocks, etc...) • The card can also be used for three days but requires a new assessment each day. When the card is full and complete . . . time to get a new card. • The next few slides are: • Tips on hazard identification • Observer guidance • Q & A

  11. Hazard Identification (examples) How would you address this task on your iCard? #23 - Pinch Points #7 - Congested Areas/Tight Quarters #11 - Ergonomics(body positioning) Have you ever seen this?

  12. Hazard Identification (examples) How would you address this task on your iCard? #22 - Open-ended flanges #3 - Chemical Inhalation #4 - Chemical Splash Hopefully this potential hazard would have been covered during the SWP process Never place yourself in the path of an open pipe connected to a process

  13. Individual Responsibilities • This list was comprised of the top safety factors identified from past incidents across the site • Use these positive affirmations to help influence your thinking • Review these periodically when working in the field • ALWAYS follow these guidelines to help prevent an injury

  14. OBSERVER GUIDANCE Observers may ask to see your iCardfrom time to time. It is important for eachiCard userindividual to: • have completed the pre task hazard assessment prior to starting work activities • have accurately filled out the iCard(name, company, block, date, job scope). • MUSTbe able to clearly explain to any observer how they eliminatedorminimizedthe hazards identified in their work area • MUSTadd any hazards to the card if they become apparent once the job has started and take action to eliminateorminimizethe hazards

  15. Q & A Q: How will contractors be trained on this change? A: MEC will follow their MOC process for contractors and provide the tools for the contractor to train their employees. MEC will also conduct iCard training for Foremen and Supervisors as was done previously by the STAC card process. Q: How will Dow employees be trained on this change? A: The MOC will be communicated with an action item for H&S Techs to insure they review the training presentation with their workgroups and document. Q: Can we still use the old STAC card? A: No. The iCard replaces the current STAC card. Q: How do I get the iCard? A: Each Dow facility will order cards from Standard Register and supply workers at their facilities with the new iCard. (Item 12420 Description: iCard PTA).

  16. Q & A (continued) Q: How many hazards do I need to identify when performing my hazard assessment? A: There is no minimum or maximum limit on hazards. Identify all that apply when you initially start the job and make sure you add hazards that are identified as the job progresses. Q: Do I have to place at least one hazard within each quadrant of the circle? A: No. The iCard was designed so that you can place the hazard anywhere within the circle. Q: Do I need to complete an iCard if I have an approved SWP Exempt job? A: Yes; the iCard must be completed for Exempt jobs as well. Q: Do I need to add a STAC insert to the new iCard A: No. STAC inserts were part of the STAC initiative and are being modified to be utilized during special emphasis programs at a later time.

  17. Q & A (continued) Q: Can my crew complete 1 iCard; for example, a crew card? A: No. Each individual must complete their own card as it is important for each worker to identify hazards within their work zone and eliminate or minimize them. Q: I am new and not experienced at hazard recognition; so is it OK to get with crew members or my foreman for help? A: Yes. Good communication and sharing hazard knowledge/recognition is expected. Q: Does the new Pre-Task Hazard Assessment Policy change who is required to complete a Pre-Task Hazard Assessment? A: No. The requirements to complete a Pre-Task Hazard Assessment have not changed. The major change in the policy is that the iCardmust be completed at the work site. Q: Can we still use the old STAC card? A: No. The iCardreplaces the current STAC card.

  18. Q & A (continued) Q: When will the iCard be available? A: Cards are available for ordering beginning July 18 thru Standard Register (Item 12420 Description: iCard PTA). Q: How will observers be trained on the process? A: MEC observers will be trained by MEC utilizing the training presentation attached. Dow employees wanting to observe and review iCards should first complete the training presentation attached. Q: If we reference STAC card within a document in our facility what should we do? A: To clarify the use of a Pre Task Hazard Assessment we recommend simply changing the document to PTHA instead of STAC. The iCard is simply a tool to be used for PTHA. Q: How do workers get iCards? A: All Facilities should stock the iCard for workers within their facilities. Pre-plan for turnarounds and projects where you are expecting an influx of workers.
