PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION CITY OF SOUTH BEND: PINHOOK WTP IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT GUARANTEED SAVINGS CONTRACT PROJECT SAFETY Reynolds maintains a written safety program that identifies protocols and expectations for our supervisors and employees. We use this program as a principal tool and a common reference guide, not just for compliance, but for safe/best safety practices. Even though our Safety Representative, the Project Manager, and our Site Superintendents are responsible for conformance with the Site Specific Health & Safety Plan, each employee has the authority to stop work if he or she identifies a hazardous condition. This approach creates a cooperative atmosphere that identifies and communicates hazards so they can be controlled or eliminated. KEY ELEMENTS OF SAFETY PROGRAM Key elements of our successful safety program which create a solid culture of safety include the following: A designated Safety Representative A core of long-term permanent craft employees, who practice our safety program methods daily Each employee has the authority to stop work if he or she identifies a hazardous condition.
