Comments on Statistics--J.A. Glass We experienced nine total injuries during November. Two of these injuries were recordable: 1) An employee was involved in an accident off plant while on com pany business. He received a fractured arm, multiple bruises, and loss of several teeth; 2) An operator was in the process of lighting a furnace when a flashback occurred resulting in first and second degree bums to his neck and chest. This was the second bum incident we've had within a month involving the lighting of burners. This is a good time to review departmental operating procedures for lighting burners on gas fired equipment. The number of bum cases in the plant has been increasing. We have an excellent video tape, "Bum Emergency", which can be used to help present a safety meeting on this topic. It should help increase employee safety awareness of the effects of burns, and also demonstrates proper emergency care procedures. C. Contractor Safety--C.M. McCullough Safety statistics for total contractor safety and capital project contractor safety are attached to these minutes. November was a good month with no recordable in plant support, and only one in capital projects. D. CEP Project Safety--B.C. Lancaster Accident statistics for the CED construction group were tabulated and listed as attachments the minutes of this meeting. II. REPORT OF THE SAFETY ADVISORY COMMITTEE (SAC)--G.W. Daues A. INTERLOCK BYPASSING Comments received from the PMSB in November were incorporated into the new P-Bulletin on protective devices. In addition, portions of P-0123 on relief valves have been added. The P-Bulletin is now being circulated for final approval. Target date for issue: Mid January 1982. B. NEW PLANTWIDE SAFETY PROGRAM The LP&S superintendent reviewed a proposal for a program aimed at increasing safety awareness in the first quarter of 1982.
