The call came in a few minutes ago from the corporate safety, asking me to intercept since I know the NAVFAC Safety Inspector. Before I committed to that request. I asked several questions:
Is that job authorized for today, It's Sunday today?
Yes, I am sure it is, but I will confirm authorization for today.
Why was the crew not in PPE?
The supervisor thought they didn't have to be in PPE because it's Sunday.
What job is this?
Fencing project.
Where is the job site?
Central
How many involved?
3 or 4 workers including supervisor. I'll confirm number.
After hearing the story and asking several questions, I gave instructions on what shall be done before I even consider intercepting this issue.
- I want the Supervisor written up.
- I want the crew to go through a Safety Stand Down regarding PPE and the Standard, EM 385-1-1, Section 5 Personal Protection Equipment.
- I need pictures of the unserviceable PPE that was confiscated from the workers and the new PPE issued to those workers.
- I need all documentation emailed to me no later than 0700 hours tomorrow morning.
I accepted the request. NO Promises, NO Guarantees that they get off.
I hope the contractor client knows that I'm going to send them a huge invoice for this issue.
