DAILY WORK PLAN:

• TODAY WE HAVE THE FOLLIWING PEOPLE PERFORMING THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES:

• Supervision

• Layout

• Framing

• Hangers

• Finishing

• Plastering

• Lathing

• Punchlist

• Laborers

• EXPOSED TO THE FOLLOWING DANGERS:

• Falls

• Employees must remain inside guard rails at all times at heights over 6 feet. If there are no rails present employees must use a PFAS. Inspect the PFAS before use, and ensure you tie off to an anchor point capable of holding at least 5,000 pounds per person. Ask your foreman if you have any questions. If you have to remove a guardrail for loading, tie off and ensure the rail is replaced immediately.

• Ladders

• Select from range

• Only fiberglass ladders are allowed. Face the ladder at all times. Do not lean step ladders against objects - use them only in the open position. Do not stand on the top step or stand backwards. Use the right size ladder for the job and ensure you inspect it for damage. If ladders must be used around fall hazards like shafts or window openings, tie off with a PFAS.

• Scaffolds

• Do not get on a scaffold that is not equipped with a green tag which has been signed off by the competent person for that day. Do not climb cross bracing, use a ladder or internal stairs for access. All scaffolds over 6 feet should have guard rails. If you have not been trained on scaffolds, do not use them. See your foreman if you have any questions.

• Stilts

• If you are using stilts ensure the floor is free of trash and cords. Make sure there are additional guard rails around shafts and window openings.

• Sprains and Strains

• Set up work stations at waist level. Use carts or dollies to move materials whenever possible. Get help if you can't use carts or dollies. Try to avoid lifting more than 50 pounds.

• Fire

• Check your extension cords for damage, make sure they have a ground prong and are construction rated (at least 12 gauge). Metal stud cut stations require a hot work permit, and a dedicated fire extinguisher. If we cannot get rid of combustibles in the area (wood, cardboard) we will need to use a fire watch.

• Heat

• Stay hydrated and drink plenty of water. Avoid energy drinks.
