discharging them of their duties and responsibilities in the site.
 Worker Clothing-Workers exposed to traffic should be attired in bright, highly visible clothing
similar to that of flaggers.

Page 7 of 13

 Speed Reduction-In highly vulnerable situations, consideration should be given to reducing the speed
of traffic through regulatory speed zoning, use of police, lane reduction, or flaggers. Site speed limit
shall not be exceeding 30 km/ph.
 Lighting-For night-time work, lighting the work area and approaches may allow the driver better
comprehension of the requirements being imposed. Care should be taken to ensure that the lighting
does not cause blinding.
 Public Information-Improved driver performance may be realized through a well-prepared and
complete public relations effort that covers the nature of the work, the time and duration of its
execution, and its anticipated effects upon traffic and possible alternate routes and modes of travel.
Such programs have been found to
result in a significant drop in traffic; that reduces the possible number of conflicts and may allow a
temporary lane closing for additional buffer area.
 Road Closure-If alternate routes are available to handle detoured traffic, the road may be closed
temporarily during times of greatest worker hazard-which, in addition

to offering maximum worker safety, may facilitate quicker project completion and thus further reduce
worker vulnerability.
 Access segregating the work zone and vehicular access shall be provided.
4.2 Movement of vehicle on site:
 Establishing a site speed limit;
 Banks man shall be deployed for vehicle movement in site working areas.
 Safe parking of staff, contractor, tenants, facility user, and visitor vehicles on or adjacent to site;
 Loading and unloading of vehicles to be controlled by flagmen.
 Maintaining access for emergency service vehicles at all times to all areas of the site.
 Unauthorized access of vehicles are to be controlled by site security personnel.
 Deliveries are supposed to be done in Site store yard rather than in worksite, However in certain cases
security personnel will control the deliveries on site.
4.3 Traffic Management:
Strictly implement at site approved traffic management plan and approved TDP
4.4 Emergency Response
 Safe Assembly Point (Muster Point) is located in near entrance of each site location.
 In case of an emergency, the work force will assemble in the safe assembly point in consideration to
the wind direction (safe assembly point is provided with sign boards)
