This site-specific safety plan describes how Example Plumbing Co. will control the hazards of its plumbing work at Elementary School Classroom Addition (sample). It supplements Example Plumbing Co.'s written safety programs and the general contractor's site safety requirements; it does not replace them.

Example Plumbing Co. keeps a copy of this plan on site, reviews it with the crew before work starts, and updates it when the scope, crew or site conditions change.

Example Plumbing Co. is committed to sending every worker home safe from Elementary School Classroom Addition (sample). Safety comes before schedule and cost.

Every worker has the authority and the responsibility to stop work they believe is unsafe. No one will be disciplined for stopping work in good faith; the supervisor and the site safety representative resolve the concern before work resumes.

Workers follow this plan, Example Plumbing Co.'s safety rules and the general contractor's site rules. Supervisors enforce them consistently.

Competent and qualified persons

Pat Morgan (Field Safety Coordinator) is Example Plumbing Co.'s site safety representative for this project and the general contractor's contact for safety matters. The safety representative makes sure this plan is followed, attends the general contractor's safety meetings and follows up on corrective actions.

The field supervisor leads daily pre-task planning, checks that workers have the training and equipment their work requires, and stops work when hazards are not controlled.

The competent persons for this job are able to identify existing and predictable hazards in their area of responsibility and are authorized to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them.

Each worker follows this plan, uses the required protective equipment, takes part in pre-task planning, and reports hazards, injuries and near misses to the supervisor immediately.

Example Plumbing Co. keeps a drug- and alcohol-free workplace. No one works on this project under the influence of alcohol, illegal drugs or misused prescription drugs, and no one brings them onto the site.

Workers who take a medication that could affect their ability to work safely tell the field supervisor before starting work, without having to name the medication, so their work can be adjusted.

Example Plumbing Co. follows the general contractor's drug and alcohol testing requirements for this project, such as testing before site access, at random, after an incident and on reasonable suspicion, where the law allows them.

A supervisor who reasonably suspects that a worker is impaired removes the worker from work right away, arranges a safe ride home, and follows Example Plumbing Co.'s testing and discipline procedures.

Supervisors enforce this plan, Example Plumbing Co.'s safety rules and the general contractor's site rules the same way for every worker on Example Plumbing Co.'s crew.

Violations are handled in steps: a documented verbal warning, then a written warning, then removal from the project. Each step is recorded with the date, the rule broken and the corrective action, and the general contractor is told of every removal.

A serious violation can mean removal from the project the first time, for example working at height without the required fall protection, working on equipment that has not been locked out when this plan requires it, being impaired by alcohol or drugs, fighting or horseplay, or removing guardrails, covers or barricades without permission.

No worker is disciplined for reporting an injury, an illness, a near miss or a hazard.

Example Plumbing Co. will perform plumbing work on the Elementary School Classroom Addition (sample) project at 3300 Placeholder Lane, Arlington, TX 76010 for general contractor Example Construction Group. Work is scheduled from December 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027, with a peak crew of 9 workers on site. This plan covers the following tasks: install underground waste and water piping in trenches; rough-in water, waste and vent piping; solder and braze copper piping; join PVC, CPVC and ABS pipe with solvent cement; hydrostatic and air testing of piping; set fixtures, water heaters and equipment; install hangers, supports and anchors overhead; core drill and saw-cut concrete and masonry; install, test and connect fuel gas piping; receive, stage and move materials and equipment. Underground sanitary and storm piping, domestic water and gas rough-in, fixture setting and testing for a 12-classroom addition next to the occupied school.

The tasks listed are the work Example Plumbing Co. expects to perform on this project, and the task hazard analysis in this plan covers each of them. Work not listed is planned with the field supervisor and added to this plan before it starts.

Before starting work on site, every worker attends the general contractor's site orientation and reviews this plan with the field supervisor. Workers receive the training listed above before they do that work.

Workers are instructed in recognizing and avoiding the unsafe conditions of their work and in the regulations that apply to it. Training is given in a language workers understand.

Crew languages on this project: English, Spanish.

Example Plumbing Co. keeps a training roster for this project that lists each worker with the training and certifications they hold and their dates, such as OSHA 10-hour or 30-hour construction cards, equipment operator and rigging qualifications, and first aid and CPR. The roster, and the records and cards behind it, are available to the general contractor before each worker starts on site and on request.

At the start of each shift, and again when the work or the conditions change, the field supervisor and the crew complete a written pre-task plan for the day's work: the tasks, their hazards and controls from this plan, any new hazard found on site, and the permits and equipment the work needs. Every crew member signs it before starting work.

The field supervisor holds a toolbox talk with the crew at least once a week, on a topic tied to the current work and in a language the crew understands, and records the date, the topic and who attended.

Completed pre-task plans and toolbox talk records are kept on site with this plan and given to the general contractor on request.

Install underground waste and water piping in trenches

Rough-in water, waste and vent piping

Solder and braze copper piping

Join PVC, CPVC and ABS pipe with solvent cement

Hydrostatic and air testing of piping

Set fixtures, water heaters and equipment

Install hangers, supports and anchors overhead

Core drill and saw-cut concrete and masonry

Install, test and connect fuel gas piping

Receive, stage and move materials and equipment

The crew reviews the hazards and controls for each task in the daily pre-task plan, before the work begins, and adds any hazard found that day. Controls are listed in order of preference: eliminate the hazard, then engineering and work-practice controls, then personal protective equipment. A hazard that several tasks share has its controls listed under the first of those tasks.

If site conditions differ from this analysis, workers stop and the supervisor updates the plan with the crew before work continues.

The preparer identified 11 site conditions at the Elementary School Classroom Addition (sample) site that add the following hazards to this plan: falls from ladders; falls and tip-overs from aerial and scissor lifts; struck by falling tools and materials; struck by vehicles and mobile equipment; trench and excavation cave-in; striking buried utilities; striking embedded conduit, cables or post-tension tendons; temporary power and cord-connected tools; fire from brazing, soldering, welding and torch cutting; compressed gas cylinders; flammable liquids and gases; fuel gas leaks during piping and purging; stored energy during pressure testing; respirable crystalline silica dust; noise; brazing and welding fumes; powder-actuated tools; occupants and the public near the work. The table below lists the hazards each condition adds and where their controls are. Other site hazards identified by the preparer: Students and staff walk past the construction fence at arrival and dismissal; no deliveries or material moves cross the drop-off loop from 7:15 to 8:00 am and 2:45 to 3:30 pm.

Other hazards identified for this site

Students and staff walk past the construction fence at arrival and dismissal; no deliveries or material moves cross the drop-off loop from 7:15 to 8:00 am and 2:45 to 3:30 pm.

Example Plumbing Co. tells the general contractor about any new site hazard it identifies, and follows the general contractor's controls for hazards created by other trades.

Example Plumbing Co. keeps the written programs listed above separately from this plan and makes them available to the general contractor and to workers on request.

The field supervisor keeps the chemical inventory, a list of every hazardous chemical product Example Plumbing Co. brings on site by the product identifier on its safety data sheet, together with the safety data sheets in the site copy of this plan, where workers can read them during every shift (29 CFR 1910.1200(e)(1) and (g)(8)). Both are updated before a new product comes on site.

Example Plumbing Co. gives the general contractor a copy of the chemical inventory before work starts, and other employers on site can see its safety data sheets through the field supervisor (29 CFR 1910.1200(e)(2)).

Workers wear hard hats, safety glasses and safety-toe footwear in active work areas, plus the task-specific equipment listed above, unless the general contractor's rules require more.

Example Plumbing Co. provides the required protective equipment, trains workers in its use, and replaces it when it is damaged or worn out.

In an emergency, call 911 first, then notify the field supervisor and the general contractor. Give the dispatcher the site address shown above and send someone to meet responders at the site entrance.

When an alarm sounds or the general contractor orders an evacuation, workers stop work, make equipment safe if they can do so without risk, and go to the assembly point: Southeast corner of the staff parking lot. The supervisor accounts for every worker and reports anyone missing to responders.

First-aid supplies are kept at: Plumbing job box inside the GC's laydown yard. Workers report every injury, however minor, to the supervisor right away.

If a fire starts during hot work, workers stop the work, use the fire extinguisher only on a small fire they can safely put out, and evacuate and call 911 if it grows.

The field supervisor checks the weather forecast before each shift and watches for severe weather alerts during it. When thunder is heard or lightning is seen, outdoor work stops and workers take shelter in a building or an enclosed vehicle until 30 minutes after the last thunder. Before high winds or other severe weather, the crew secures loose materials and equipment if it is safe to do so and follows the general contractor's severe weather plan.

Workers report every injury, illness, near miss and property damage to the field supervisor immediately. The supervisor notifies the general contractor immediately, leaves the scene as it is except to help the injured or prevent further harm, and gives the general contractor a written incident report within 24 hours, on its form if it has one.

Example Plumbing Co. reports to OSHA any work-related fatality within 8 hours, and any work-related in-patient hospitalization, amputation or loss of an eye within 24 hours (29 CFR 1904.39).

The supervisor and the site safety representative investigate each incident to find its causes, correct them and share the lessons with the crew.

Example Plumbing Co. follows the general contractor's site safety rules and attends its coordination and safety meetings. The field supervisor coordinates daily with Example Construction Group and other trades on overlapping work such as overhead work, shutdowns and work in shared areas.

Example Plumbing Co. does not remove or alter guardrails, hole covers, barricades or other protection installed by others. If the work requires it, the field supervisor arranges it with the general contractor and replaces the protection before leaving the area.

Hazards created by other employers are reported to the general contractor, and Example Plumbing Co. workers stay out of areas where they would be exposed to uncontrolled hazards.

If Example Plumbing Co. brings lower-tier subcontractors to this project, it tells the general contractor before they start. Each lower-tier subcontractor follows this plan and the general contractor's site rules, attends the site orientation, and sends its workers' training records, and any lift plans or permits its work needs, to the general contractor through Example Plumbing Co.

The field supervisor inspects the work area at the start of each shift and as work changes. Competent persons make the inspections that the controls in this plan call for, and workers check their tools and equipment before use.

Hazards found are corrected immediately, or the area is barricaded until they are. Example Plumbing Co. takes part in the general contractor's site inspections and closes out its findings.

By signing below, each worker confirms that this plan was reviewed with them, that they understand the hazards and controls of their work, and that they will follow it and stop work if conditions become unsafe.

This plan was prepared by Pat Morgan (Field Safety Coordinator) and approved by Sam Example (President) for Example Plumbing Co. Example Plumbing Co. is responsible for its content and for reviewing it against actual site conditions.
