ACCIDENT REPORTING

Accident reporting information is posted on the Safety Posters in the job trailer.

 
 
DAILY LOGS

Daily logs are a way to document important conversations with subcontractors, owners, architects, and Hogan employees. In addition, it is a way to document manpower, deliveries, inspections, visitors, etc. We encourage our Site Superintendents to do their daily logs daily. The template for Daily Logs can be found in Procore under Project Management.

 
 
PROCORE

For safety purposes, we track the following in Procore.

  • Weekly site inspections
  • Daily production and safety meetings (with Fineline employees)
  • Daily logs
  • Weekly subcontractor safety meetings.
 
 
SAFETY DATA SHEETS (updated 12/2021)

Modern construction uses a great many chemicals, including:

  • Concrete curing compounds
  • Polymer bonding agents
  • Polymer modified mortar for repair and maintenance

 

Each chemical has a Safety Data Sheet, or SDS, which actually consists of sixteen sheets covering several topics, including first aid instructions for when a person comes in contact with the chemical.

For example, if one of our employees gets a chemical in his or her eye or swallows a chemical, and we call 911, the ambulance will come and the paramedics are going to ask for the sds sheets. Fineline employees and subcontractors can access the SDS sheets by clicking on the QR code located on Hogan’s safety poster which is located in the project trailer.

Remember they are there. Look for them when you visit the job trailer.

The safety data sheets include an array of important information about the chemical, including first aid and the safe handling and storage of the chemical.

 
 
— INSPECTIONS —
 
SITE SAFETY INSPECTIONS

Site safety inspections are to be performed by the Superintendent or Foreman weekly. The inspection form is in Procore and in the Forms section of this book. Superintendents and Foreman should make time to immediately fix issues identified during site inspections.

In addition, Jared Morgan and the Safety Assistant visit each project and perform a safety inspection, with photo documentation, at least monthly, more frequently if the project is a large one (e.g., weekly for a full high school build). The results of the inspection are recorded in Procore and sent to the Superintendent. Follow-up on cited issues is required, including photo proof of issue correction.

 
 
— SAFETY MEETINGS —
 
DAILY PRODUCTION AND SAFETY MEETINGS (updated 03/2022)

Daily production and safety meetings must be conducted with all Fineline employees on each project first thing in the morning. These meetings are typically held at the start of each work day and last five to ten minutes. The Superintendent is responsible for these meetings. The meetings cover tasks to be worked on that day by each employee, hazards associated with those tasks, and what will be done to remediate those hazards.

Every Fineline employee assigned to a project is required to attend, participate in, and sign their name on the Daily Production and Safety Meeting attendance sheet.

Daily Production and Safety Meeting documents are held in Procore for the duration of the project.

(A separate Subcontractor Safety meeting is held weekly for the Foreman of each of the trades.)
The Meeting should cover the following:

  • Work assignments or tasks for each employee for that day.
  • Project hazards anticipated for the day (and beyond) and procedures for minimizing the risk to employees and project
  • Report on any hazardous materials that will be entering the site that day (and beyond)
  • Review of any safety violations that may have occurred on the project during the previous day(s)
  • Review of any accidents or near hits that may have occurred on the project during the previous day(s)
  • Weekly have each employee check his or her MY CERTIFICATIONS (Fineline ADP Portal) and report any training requirement about to expire
  • Any other safety topics the Superintendent deems appropriate to review or highlight.
