Harmans Floreat’s Health Safety, and Environment (HSE) Manual is the governing document outlining requirements applicable to Harmansfloreat and its subsidiary companies. All employees are required to read and be familiar with its content.

Key Safety Requirements:

• Permit to Work System (PTW): A written procedure is in place to protect individuals working in high-risk areas or activities, outlining steps before, during, and after work completion. This system helps coordinate risk and prevent hazards.
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): A minimum set of PPE, including safety boots, high-visibility clothing, gloves, helmets, and eye protection, is mandatory at all worksites. Additional PPE may be required based on risk assessments and local regulations.
• Work at Height: Operations involving work at height must be properly planned, supervised, and carried out by competent personnel. These activities require a Risk Assessment (RA) or Task Risk Assessment (TRA/SJA) and a Permit to Work (PTW). Rescue plans and equipment must be available.
• Dropped Object Prevention: Measures are in place to prevent falling objects (tools, equipment, loose items) that could cause injury, material damage, or environmental impact. This includes establishing drop zones with no-access barriers, securing tools with lanyards, and thorough inspections after work.
• Confined Space Work: Work in confined spaces requires a PTW, a Task Risk Assessment (TRA/SJA), and a rescue plan. Air quality testing is critical before entry to ensure normal oxygen levels and absence of toxic gases.
• Lifting Operations: Procedures address risks associated with lifting, such as dropped loads or crushing. Approved lift plans and PTWs are required for specific operations, and all personnel involved must be qualified and competent.
• Chemical Handling: Policies are in place for the safe handling, storage, and disposal of chemical products, emphasizing the use of less hazardous alternatives and mandatory PPE as per Safety Data Sheets (SDS).
• Traffic Safety: Driving or being a passenger in a vehicle is recognized as a high work-related safety concern. Requirements include pre-use vehicle checks, safe driving practices (obeying speed limits, wearing seatbelts, avoiding distractions), and immediate reporting of damages or incidents.
• Emergency Response: The manual outlines procedures for emergency response, including fire fighting, first aid, and medical emergency responses.
