Training The employed staff including management, supervisors, and workers of the project need to receive basic OHS training to ensure proper orientation to the general and specific hazards of individual work assignments. Special training needs to be provided for workers in charge of rescue and first- aid duties. Project’s staff and workers shall receive awareness sessions that include information on workers GM, GBV, SH and SEA. In general, the OHS training would cover the followings: • Basic hazard awareness & color coding, • Site-specific hazards, • Safe work practices, • Workers GM • Code of Conduct including GBV, SH and SEA related issues, and • Emergency procedures for fire, chemical spill, gas leak, evacuation, and disaster Further details need to cover the followings: • Knowledge of materials, equipment, and tools • Known hazards in the operations and how they are controlled • Potential risks to health e.g. waterborne & blood borne • Precautions to prevent exposure | P a g e 17 ‫س‬ • Hygiene requirements • Wearing and use of protective equipment and clothing • Appropriate response to operation extremes and accidents • Principles of first aid The contractor OHS Officer need to ensure that safety measures are applied to all visitors and they don’t enter hazard areas unescorted. Hazardous areas (e.g. excavated areas, unguarded roofs, etc.), and emergency exits, etc. should be marked appropriately with signage. Signage should be easily understood by workers, visitors and the general public. 10.1. Certification Requirements The site Construction Manager in coordination with the consultancy firm team shall, prior to allowing personnel to undertake any of the following activities, ensure that the person(s) are suitably qualified and are able to produce evidence/certification before engaging in these tasks if required by local regulations: • Shoring / scaffolding; • Articulated boom; • Crane and lifter operation; • Operation of earth moving and trench excavation equipment and machinery; • Electrical and instrument work; • Any other works requiring certification under local legislation. A copy of personal certifications will be submitted to ESO by Consultancy Firm. The Following sections identify potential hazards and guidance to be followed in accordance with national and international regulation and standards: 11. Hazards 11.1. Physical Hazards Physical hazards represent potential for accident or injury or illness due to repetitive exposure to a mechanical action or work activity. Single exposure to physical hazards may result in a wide range of injuries, from minor and medical aid only, to disabling, catastrophic, and/or fatal. Multiple exposures over prolonged periods can result in disabling injuries of comparable significance and consequence. 11.2. Rotating and Machine Movement | P a g e 18 ‫س‬ Possible Injury or death can occur from being trapped, entangled, or struck by machinery parts due to unexpected starting of equipment or unobvious movement during operations. Therefore, safety measures as well as respective Personal Protection Equipment’s (PPES) as per the safety Data Sheet (SDS) for each equipment need to be adopted and implemented 11.3. Noise The project management will ensure that no employee will be exposed to a noise level greater than 85 dB for a duration of more than 8 hours per day without hearing protection measured regularly. OHS Officer shall ensure that excessive noise generating equipment and noise control equipment (e.g. barriers, enclosures and mufflers) are maintained regularly according to the preventive maintenance schedule. OHS Officer shall promptly raise work orders to service and repair equipment that is generating abnormally excessive noise. OHS Officer shall ensure that non-routine activities (e.g. pile driving, blasting, rock clearing, drilling, percussion drilling) which generate excessive noise are scheduled during day time hours as mentioned above. 11.4. Electrical All electrical equipment and installations should be constructed, installed and maintained by a competent person, and so used as to guard against danger. Before construction is commenced and during the progress thereof, adequate steps should be taken to ascertain the presence of and to guard against danger to workers from any live electrical cable or apparatus which is under, over or on the site. The laying and maintenance of electrical cables and apparatus on construction sites shall be governed by national laws and regulations. All parts of electrical installations shall be of adequate size and characteristics for the power requirements and work they may be called upon to do and in particular they should: • Be of adequate mechanical strength to withstand working conditions in construction activities; • Not be liable to damage by water, dust or electrical, thermal or chemical action to which they may be subjected in construction activities. The electrical distribution at each site should be via an isolator which cuts off current from all conductors, is readily accessible and can be locked in the "off" position but not locked in the "on" position. | P a g e 19 ‫س‬ The power supply to all electrical equipment should be provided with means of cutting off current from all conductors in an emergency. All electrical appliances and outlets should be clearly marked to indicate their purpose and voltage. When the layout of an installation cannot be clearly recognized, the circuits and appliances should be identified by labels or other effective means. Circuits and appliances carrying different voltages in the same installation should be clearly distinguished by conspicuous means such as colored markings. Adequate precautions should be taken to prevent installations from receiving current at a higher voltage from other installations. Where necessary to prevent danger, installations should be protected against lightning. Lines for signaling and telecommunication systems should not be laid on the same supports as medium- and high-voltage lines. Only flameproof equipment and conductors should be installed in explosive atmospheres or in store places for explosives or flammable liquids. To prevent exposure to electrical risks the followings need to be considered: • Marking all energized electrical devices and lines with warning signs • Checking all electrical cords, cables, and hand power tools for frayed or exposed cords and following manufacturer recommendations. • Double insulating / grounding all electrical equipment used in environments that are, or may become, wet. • Protecting power cords and extension cords against damage from traffic by shielding or suspending above traffic areas. • Appropriate labeling of service rooms housing high voltage equipment (‘electrical hazard’) and where entry is controlled or prohibited. • Conducting detailed identification and marking of all buried electrical wiring prior to any excavation work. This is particularly important for the transmission line, as there could be unseen cables. Also working under overhead lines should have special procedures. 11.5. Eye Hazard Solid particles from a wide variety of daily activities, and / or a liquid chemical spray may strike a worker in the eye causing an eye injury or permanent blindness. Recommended measures include: • Use of machine guards or splash shields and/or face and eye protection devices, such as safety glasses with side shields, goggles, and/or a full-face shield. The contractor is equipped with some relevant safety equipment and PPE, such as googles and eyewash/shower stations. However, the contractor will provide the project facilities with sufficient PPE deemed necessary for the workers, such as the Face Mask with a side shield. | P a g e 20 ‫س‬ • Moving areas where the discharge of solid fragments, liquid, or gaseous emissions can reasonably be predicted (e.g. discharge of sparks from a metal cutting station, pressure relief valve discharge) away from places expected to be occupied or transited by workers or visitors. In addition, where machine or work fragments could present a hazard to transient workers or passers-by, extra area guarding or proximity restricting systems should be implemented, or PPE required for transients and visitors. • Provisions should be made for persons who have to wear prescription glasses either through the use over glasses or prescription hardened glasses. • The above provision applies to the day light work according to the Palestinian regulations. 11.6. Vehicle Driving and Site Traffic Vehicle driving and site traffic safety practices will include: • Training and licensing vehicle drivers of the during construction of specialized vehicles such as forklifts, including safe loading/unloading, load limits. • Establishing rights-of-way, site speed limits, vehicle inspection requirements, operating rules and procedures, and control of traffic patterns or direction/ direction signs. • Restricting the circulation of delivery and private vehicles to defined routes and areas, giving preference to ‘one-way’ circulation, where appropriate. Also, • The Identification of importance roads that are to be affected by construction work and provide prior intimation to the public. • Plan works in important roads in consultation with traffic police and municipality; • Provide information, direction and warning boards, provide traffic guards with danger flags • Provide prior public information about the work, traffic disruptions/diversions • Plan vehicle (material & waste) transport routes & schedules avoiding narrow/sensitive roads and peak traffic timings • Heavy vehicles should not enter narrow local roads and sensitive areas of the town, except in the immediate vicinity of delivery sites. • Carry out construction in sections, give adequate notice of construction activities, provide effective road signs, diversions or barricades. 11.7. Chemical Hazards Prior to any potentially hazardous substances being brought onto the construction site, the following precautions shall be taken: • Information on the hazards of the materials (MSDS) shall be obtained from the manufacturer or supplier and communicated to all users. | P a g e 21 ‫س‬ • Preference should be given to the application of hazardous substances by means other than spraying, such as by brush or roller, when feasible. • Where the use of toxic solvents, certain thinners, certain paints or volatile chemical substances cannot be avoided, special precautions should be taken such as providing general and local exhaust ventilation, and, if this is not practicable or is inadequate, respiratory protective equipment should be used. Such measures should be applied more rigorously in situations when such chemicals are heated or used in confined spaces. Paints and adhesives which present health hazards should be replaced with water dispersed products. • The following aspects shall be considered prior to purchasing and/or using hazardous substances: ✓ Identification of substance(s) ✓ Nature of hazards ✓ Degree of exposure ✓ Degree of risk ✓ Exposure of control measures ✓ Necessity for monitoring/health surveillance ✓ Induction/training requirements. • Hazard materials will be stored in separate location under supervision of safety Engineer an according to the approved safety data sheets instructions. • Training and education procedures for the control of hazardous materials shall be provided for all personnel who may come in contact with or be affected by those materials. • Those responsible for the introduction of a hazardous material(s) into the workplace shall ensure that appropriate training has been provided. Training shall include the requirements for safe handling, transport, storage, disposal and environmental protection. However, chemical hazards represent potential for illness or injury due to single acute exposure or chronic repetitive exposure to toxic materials including the risk explosion. Chemical hazards will be prevented through: • If possible, replacement of the hazardous substance with a less hazardous substitute Keeping the number of employees exposed to a minimum and the level of exposure below internationally established limits. • Corrosive, oxidizing, and reactive chemicals that can lead to the release of flammable or toxic materials and gases, and may lead directly to fires and explosions should be stored in well-ventilated areas, handled with precautions and need to be segregated from flammable or other chemical that can react (acids vs. bases, oxidizers vs. reducers, water sensitive vs. water based, etc.). • Workers who are required to handle corrosive, oxidizing, or reactive chemicals should be provided with specialized training and provided with, and wear, appropriate PPE (gloves, apron, splash suits, face shield or goggles, etc). Equipped first-aid stations should be easily accessible throughout the place of work, and eye-wash stations and/or emergency showers should be provided close to all workstations where the recommended first-aid response is immediate flushing with water. 11.8. Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) | P a g e 22 ‫س‬ • Following the hostilities in Gaza, rehabilitation and finishing works activities are expected to be conducted in Gaza Strip, there is a potential risk of presence of Unexploded Ordnances (UXO) in the rubble, the UXO poses OHS risk on workers and community. • Sites assessed to include potential mixed rubble resulting from the demolition of structure and infrastructure due the hostilities should be assessed by UNMAS, the PCU should coordinate with UNMAS to assess the risk of UXO to clear the site, and provide clearance report to proceed with construction of the sub-project screening • Those risks will be addressed in the site-specific ESMP checklist and the site-specific ESMP’s that will be prepared for each site and cleared by the bank. For the contractor, depending on this evaluation, specific measures shall be developed to ensure safe working conditions. • Workers shall not be allowed to the site prior having UNMAS Clarence report. • During construction works, if the presence of unidentified object is suspected, the contractor shall immediately stop the work activity, safely evacuate the workers from the site, safely secure the site, and immediately coordinate with the PCU to have the site screened and cleared by UNMAS. 11.9. Slipping and Fall from Height • Slips and falls on the same elevation associated with poor housekeeping, such as excessive waste debris, loose construction materials, liquid spills, and uncontrolled use of electrical cords and ropes on the ground, are also among the most frequent cause of lost time accidents at construction and decommissioning sites. Recommended methods for the prevention of slips and falls from, or on, the same elevation include implementing good house-keeping practices, such as the sorting and placing loose construction materials or demolition debris in established areas away from foot paths, cleaning up excessive waste debris and liquid spills regularly, locating electrical cords and ropes in common areas and marked corridors, and uses of slip retardant footwear • Falls from elevation associated with working with ladders, scaffolding, and partially built structures are among the most common cause of fatal or permanent disabling injury at construction or decommissioning sites. If fall hazards exist, a fall protection plan should be in place which includes one or more of the following aspects, depending on the nature of the fall hazard, including: training and use of personal fall arrest systems, as well as fall rescue procedures to deal with workers whose fall has been successfully arrested, the tie in point of the fall arresting system, use of control zones and safety monitoring systems to warn workers of their proximity to fall hazard zones, as well as securing, marking, and labeling covers for openings in floors, roofs, or walking surfaces, workers wearing appropriate PPE (e.g., hard hats, safety boots), Proper Signs in Arabic 12. COVID 19 Related Precautions The contractor should apply OHS requirements including commitment to the Ministry of Health and WHO guidelines regarding protection measures from COVID-19 pandemic. Workers should follow standard operating procedures which includes wearing appropriate PPE (protective outerwear, heavy-duty gloves, boots, medical mask, goggles and/or a face shield), washing dedicated tools and clothing, performing hand hygiene sanitizers frequently, obtaining vaccinations for diseases and self-monitoring for any signs of COVID-19. Any registered COVID-19 case or the | P a g e 23 ‫س‬ contact of COVID19 case will be requested to notify the OHS Officer by email and to follow the national COVID-19 prevention instruction issued by the MoH and WHO guidelines. Additional precautions to prevent transmission include avoiding touching the eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands, sneezing into one’s sleeve or a disposal tissue, practicing physical distancing while working, travelling to and from work and staying home if one develops symptoms associated with COVID-19 (e.g. fever, dry cough, fatigue - loss of taste or smell). The Contractor will comply with the COVID 19 measures according to the MoH/WHO guidelines and sign a compliance commitment letter (Annex 3) including: • performing hand hygiene frequently with an alcohol-based hand rub if your hands are not visibly dirty or with soap and water if hands are dirty; • avoiding touching your eyes, nose, and mouth; • practicing respiratory hygiene by coughing or sneezing into a bent elbow or tissue and then immediately disposing of the tissue; • wearing a medical mask if you have respiratory symptoms and performing hand hygiene after disposing of the mask; • maintaining social distance (a minimum of 1 meter) from persons with respiratory symptoms.

General Directions for First Aid Following are nine general directions for first aid in an emergency, outlined by the American Red Cross. • Keep the victim lying down. • Examine the victim - look for serious bleeding, lack of breathing, and poisoning. • Keep the victim warm. • Send someone to call a physician or ambulance. • Remain calm. Do not be rushed into moving the victim unless absolutely necessary. • Never give an unconscious victim anything to eat or drink. • Keep the crowd away from the victim. • Ensure the victim is comfortable and cheerful. • Don’t allow the victim see his injury. | P a g e 32 ‫س‬ At least one employee/worker trained on first aid shall be present at all times during working hours. The Trained person phone will be distributed on all the workers on the site at highlighted boards and listed in the contact number list. First-aid kits or boxes, as appropriate, should be provided at the workplaces, including isolated locations such as balloon gas, sludge treatment facilities, TPs, and be protected against contamination by dust, moisture, etc. All workers can access first aid kits in approximately 5 minutes. Kits must be available at all times. The first aid equipment may contain and not limited to the following: • Plasters in a variety of different sizes and shapes • Small, medium and large sterile gauze dressings • Sterile eye dressings • Triangular bandages • crêpe rolled bandages • Safety pins • Disposable sterile gloves • Tweezers • Scissors • Alcohol-free cleansing wipes • Sticky tape • Thermometer (preferably digital) • Skin rash cream, such as hydrocortisone or calendula • Cream or spray to relieve insect bites and stings • Antiseptic cream • Painkillers such as paracetamol • Cough medicine • Antihistamine cream or tablets • Distilled water for cleaning wounds • Eye wash Knowing what not to do in an emergency is just as important as knowing what to do. The original injury may be magnified by the wrong kind of treatment or mishandling. If a victim must be transported, ensure that methods described in a standard first aid text are used. With neck or back injuries, particularly, serious damage may occur by improperly transporting the victim. If possible, the victim should remain at the site where the injury occurred until a physician arrives, rather than risk an increase to the injury through mishandling. Further information is expected to be received during the OHS training.
