12. Never work at height if you are afraid to do so, if you are subject to dizzy spells, or if
you are apt to be nervous or sick.
13. Know where firefighting equipment is located and be trained on how to use it.
14. Lift correctly - with legs, not the back. If the load is too heavy GET HELP. Stay fit.
Control your weight. Do stretching exercises. Approximately twenty percent of all
construction related injuries result from lifting materials.
15. All the vehicles must have Reverse horn and speed limit at site is 15 Km/hr. Vehicle
drivers should have valid license and mobile phone should not be used while
driving. Two wheeler riders must wear the crash helmet.
16. Do not use power tools and equipment until you have been properly instructed in the
safe work methods and become authorized to use them.
17. Be sure that all guards are in place. Do not remove, displace, damage, or destroy any
safety device or safeguard furnished or provided for use on the job, nor interfere with
the use thereof.
18. Do not enter an area which has been barricaded.
19. If you must work around power shovels, trucks, and dozers, make sure operators can
always see you. Barricades are required for cranes.
20. Never oil, lubricates, or fuel equipment while it is running or in motion.
21. Before servicing, repairing, or adjusting any powered tool or piece of equipment,
disconnect it, lock out the source of power, and tag it out.

22. Trenches over five feet deep must be sloped or step cutting or shored as required.
Excavated or other material shall not be stored nearer than three feet from the
edge of the excavation.
23. Use the "four and one" rule when using a ladder. One foot of base for every four
feet of height.
24. Portable ladders in use shall be equipped with safety feet unless ladder is tied,
blocked or otherwise secured. Ladders must extend three feet above landing on
supporting object for proper use. Keep ladder bases free of debris, hoses,
wires, materials, etc.
25. Scaffold planks shall be properly lapped, cleated or otherwise secured to prevent
shifting.
26. Use only extension cords of the three-pin type. Use ground fault circuit interrupters at
all times (ELCB/RCCB) and when using tools in wet atmosphere (e.g. outdoors) or
with any temporary power supply. Check the electrical grounding system daily.
27. Never throw anything "overboard." Someone passing below may be seriously injured.
28. Know what emergency procedures have been established for your job site. (Location
of emergency phone, first aid kit, stretcher location, fire extinguisher locations,
evacuation plan, etc.)
29. Every accident and near miss events must be immediately reported to the Safety dept.
30. Smoking is strictly prohibited at workplace.
