PURPOSE:
This procedure is provided to define the scope, responsibility, methods, and accountability for the Port Plastics Plant Job Safety Audit program.
SCOPE:
Job Safety Audit (JSA) at Port Plastics is a method of addressing on-the-job safety concerns, communicating safety and developing safety awareness at all levels in the plant. JSA involves members of supervision and operations personnel examining job steps as they are executed, assessing related safety/ potential hazards of the job steps and providing solutions such as better procedures, techniques or facilities to eliminate safety concerns. The Job Safety Audit is limited in scope to examine clearly defined narrow job steps --not broad job descriptions. The JSA usually examines job steps which can be completed in less than 20 minutes. JSA is used for Operator involved job steps. Equipment is audited only as it relates to Operator involvement.
Process and facility Safety Audits are beyond the scope of JSA and are covered by separate procedures.
V RESPONSIBILITY:
Safety as the Port Plastics plant is recognized as an individual responsibility. The Job Safety Audit provides a vehicle for communicating and training safety at all levels in the plant and for achieving an increased level of safety awareness.
Member of the operating groups, as well as supervision, participate in Job Safety Audits. The responsibility of recording and communicating JSA recommen dations and implementing required corrective action rests with the department supervisor.
PROCEDURE:
I. Conducting Job Safety Audits
A. Audit Committee
The audit committee is a three member team -- one representative from department supervision, one department operator familiar with the job (usually one he normally does), and a member from outside the department in no way connected with the operation (enhances objectivity).
B. Job Selection
C The job to be audited is selected fron a list of jobs already identified by department personnel for JSA, or from a specific job step highlighted in safety meetings, or through the area safety representative, or through

B. Job Selection (cont'd)
supervision as one of immediate concern, or jobs solicited from depart ment personnel as having potential for safety incidents, or new job requirements due to new, revised or additional job steps.
C. Job Safety Audit
1. The audit committee meets in the Control Room or other designated area and discusses the job to be audited. The operator familiar with the job points out areas of concern, potential hazards he has observed, etc.
2. The committee goes to the job site. The operator performs the job as normally done. The committee observes steps and discusses things as observed during execution of the job. Operating procedures, facilities, job requirements, protective equipment used/needed and
other pertinent safety aspects are assessed during this period.
3. The committee returns to the Control Room or other designated area and discusses observations about the job just audited. Potential problems are openly and candidly reviewed and recommended solutions
acceptable to all members are agreed upon. Timing for non-mechanical changes is committed to at this time.
4. Department supervisor meets with area Maintenance Foreman/Supervisor for mechanical or engineering revisions. Timing for these items is agreed upon and committed to.
5. A one-page report (see typical format attached) is written up for subsequent review step.
11. Communicating Job Safety Audits
A. Superintendent's Review
1. Each area General Superintendent holds a once/month Job Safety Audit review meeting. At this meeting:
a. The department Supervisor with his/her Operating Superintendent/
M.T. Superintendent/Maintenance Supervisor presents his current
audit and recommendations. General agreement on committed to
results is achieved. Each supervisor with a current audit makes
his/her presentation during this part of the meeting and is then

PROCEDURE: (cont'd)
II. Communieating Job Safety Audits (cont'd)
A. Superintendent's Review (cont'd)
b. The Area Superintendent, M.T. Superintendent and area Maintenance Supervisor review status of all outstanding audits with the General Superintendent. Audit status is resolved and, if appropriate, changes to previously posted audits are authorized by the General Superintendent.
2. Each Department Supervisor issues his/her current audit after General Superintendent review meeting approval: a. one copy on JSA bulletin board. b. one copy in department JSA book, and c. copies to distribution list.
Once the audit is posted on the JSA bulletin board it remains there until completed. Appropriate authorized revisions will be made to the bulletin board.and department JSA book copies as soon as available.
When the audit recommendations are completed the bulletin board copy is stamped "completed" and left on the board for ten days to communicate status. It is then removed and filed.
V
3. The Plant Manager holds quarterly review meetings. The status of all outstanding audits is reviewed. The scope and content of all completed audits are reviewed to ascertain general application to other plant operations.
Ill. Executing Recommendations
In addition to providing communication and training as increased awareness develops, it is expected that an effective Job Safety Audit program will generate procedural changes, minor mechanical revisions and some major mechanical changes.
A. Procedure or process changes revisions to signs or personal protective equipment needs or any other recommendations within the control of the auditing department will be completed by department supervision.
B. Mechanical Revisions:
1. Mechanical work covered by MRO will be submitted as a safety MRO. The Safety MRO will be designated by writing "JSA Recommendation" on the MRO. The timing commitment arrived at with area maintenance input will be written on the MRO, to allow prioritizing as needed.
V 2. Mechanical work requiring PAFE or Engineering input will be submitted

on a Request for Estimate. The RFE will be clearly marked "JSA Recommendation" for proper assignment to designated JSA Co-op Engineering group. Committed timing should be clearly marked on the RFE for prioritizing.
It is to be expected that mechanical inprovements requiring design or engineering work cannot be realistically assessed for completion before an engineering estimate is made. The JSA must have some target, however, as an initial best guess for this kind of work. It is appropriate to de signate "Engineering Work Required" on the JSA when it is posted, so delays do not significantly impact credibility.
Delays for MRO or departmental recommendations should not be tolerated, however.
