The answers can be determined but only after documented due diligence using Task Based Risk Assessment (past blogs) and assessing feasibility of hazard controls. It is necessary to evaluate the application of the risk reduction measure against the following factors: Regulatory obligations Effectiveness Usability Durability and maintainability Ergonomic impact Economic feasibility Introduction of new hazards Productivity Machine performance Technological feasibility.

I’m finding clients who have excellent lockout/tagout programs but who have not taken the necessary step of identifying tasks where LOTO is not feasible. Your only recourse is to prove LOTO is not feasible. Document why power is needed and LOTO is not feasible. Determine if guarding per CFR 1910.212 is feasible to prevent exposure to the hazard. The post What to Do When LOTO is Not Feasible appeared first on FDRsafety

By Bruce Jervis Contractor recovery for the cumulative impact of multiple delays has always been controversial. It seems logical that repeated delays affect productivity and increase costs. But it is difficult to quantify. And, of course, there are questions of causation or responsibility for the various delays.Adding to the complexity of cumulative impact claims are contract clauses requiring prompt written notice of changed or delayed work, along with quantification of increased costs.
