eight2O S,H&W Aspiration
“To create an environment that encourages a culture of care and concern for each other,
intolerant of any level of harm and focussed on protecting the health and enhancing the
wellbeing of our people”
HSMS Development
5
• HSMS is to be used all eight2O partners and the supply chain
• Good practice has been drawn from all partners
• The system is founded on the provision of competent people who are
appointed into their roles. Individuals may fulfil more than one role.
• Each procedure details the responsibilities and accountabilities of the
eight2O person required to discharge a SH&W duty.
• Task based Work Instructions provide operational control of SH&W
risks.
• The content presented in person is a summary – please return to read
the detail in C02P01 – HSMS Orientation Presentation for All Roles
Accessing the SH&W System

• Information presented in a concise format for people short of time.
• Ideal format for non-english speakers
• Approved by TW Head of H&S
• VS01 – Process Sites
• VS02 – Network Sites
• VS04 – Office and Site Setup

eight2O Visual Standards
19. Vibration management
• Eliminate/reduce exposure to HAV as much as possible by selecting suitable work method/plant. • Risk Assessment/ Method Statement in place/signed and understood? • Have you chosen the lowest vibration tool that is suitable and can do the job efficiently? • Limit the time that each worker uses high vibration tools (concrete breakers, angle grinders or hammer drills). • Know the vibration levels produced by the equipment you use • Provide information & training to operatives so they know what the risks are from (HAV) and what they need to do to avoid those risks. • Vibrating tools to be properly maintained this includes keeping bits and drills sharp. • Vibrating tools to be inspected daily with a weekly report produced. • Arranged health surveillance for people exposed to high levels of HAV, especially when exposed for long periods. • HAV meter to be used by all operatives using vibrating tools.
20
HAVS is preventable, but once the damage is done it is Permanent
Vibration not monitored !
Prevention is the only cure for HAVS

Process Flow
21
• Each procedure is mapped using a flowchart.
• The flowcharts start with the project lead who
appointments a coordinator.
• The flowcharts mandate a series of actions
flowing down the centre of the page.
• Action Inputs are shown on the l/h/s.
• Action Outputs are shown on the r/h/s.
• Related guidance documents are referenced
and linked.

High Level SH&W Processes
High level processes set out our approach and methodology for
Safety, Health and Wellbeing Management in eight2O
High Level Processes
• Communications - effective communication of relevant information
in essential to the SH&W success of the programme. We will use a
range of methods:
• Alert, Briefing and Guidance.
• Legal Compliance – is a list of regulation that we need to comply
with. It is maintained by the SH&W Team.
• CDM – see next slide
• Management of Change – FOUR key areas of change require
formal management of change procedures:
• People, Processes, Offices and Safe Systems of Work
• Prohibited & Accepted Practice Lists – Practitioner’s RAG List.
24
• CDM Appointments and
Timescale
• Maps end to end process
CDM 2007
26
Lots of information to follow soon about The Construction (Design and
Management) Regulations 2015 Coming into force 6th April 2015
It’s about Co-operation
27
HL3 – Construction Design Management (CDM)
It’s about Communication
The eight2O Red, Amber, Green
practice lists in ‘the Approach’ build
upon work done by the HSE, but are
customised to the water industry.
• RED list – Practices that are
prohibited unless there is no
alternative
• AMBER list – Practices
discouraged by eight2O. Discuss
with Safety, Health and Wellbeing
Team if you want to use one of
these practices
• GREEN list – Practice is positively
encouraged by eight2O
Design Un/Safe Practice Lists

Competence & Education
eight2O’s HSMS is built on the provision of
competent people
Competence and Education
• Induction to eight2O – which you will pass through soon
• Thames Water Passport
• Competence Cards
• Trade Tests – using Cognisco standards
• Training and competence matrix
We will also maintain a competence database to enable remote
checking – Learning Management System (LMS)
31
Designing Work • DE1WI - Site Visits for Designers (Pre-Construction)
• Produce RAMS and establish First Aid / Comms / Lone Working Controls
• DE2WI – Management of COMAH
• COMAH applies when hazardous substance inventory thresholds are exceeded
• COMAH checks are particularly important where there is more than one scheme
on the site
• DE3WI – Collection and Publication of Services Information
• Ensure drawings cover the whole area of the project
• Ensure drawings are provided in colour and are minimum 1:500 scale
• DE4WI – Design and Planning to Avoid Underground Services
• Design team to contact asset owners to divert and isolate services upfront
• Provide information to delivery teams
• No Plans No Dig
• Follow Safe Digging Practices
33
Designing Work
• DE5WI – Dealing with Major Accident Hazard Pipelines • Use Linesearch on every project (http://www.linesearchbeforeudig.co.uk/) to
identify Major Accident Hazard Pipelines (MAHP). Linesearch can be
installed on iOS devices.
• Any work within an MAHP easement will require the agreement of the
pipeline owner.
• DE6WI – HAZOP Studies • The design team and Thames Water’s end users conduct a study of the
process design to identify and eliminate process and operational hazards
• DE7WI – Thames Access to Site Permissions – (TWOSA/TOCOP) • Authority to access
• Need RAMS before application
• DE9WI – Hazard Materials – Asbestos Survey • An Asbestos co-ordinator is appointed for each project
• Asbestos surveys completed

Pre-Start & Mobilisation
How can you be safe if you don’t
prepare to be safe?
Pre-Start Mobilisation
• PS01WI – Project Mobilisation & Appointments
• Work cannot start on site prior to Gateway E and successful Readiness
Review
• Then apply for TW Access Permissions and commence mobilisation to
site
• PS01F03 - Pre-Start Meetings
• A pre-start meeting must be convened with each sub-contractor before
they start work on site
• The pre-start meeting confirms arrangements and responsibilities
between eight2O and the sub-contractor’s team
36
PS01F02 -
Readiness Review This review checks that we have the following in place before we start mobilisation, construction and commissioning phases:
• Competencies and qualifications
• Organisational arrangements
• Resources
• Permissions and licenses
• Design information
• Communication protocol/s etc.
Readiness review must be complete and signed off before
starting any work on site
Pre-start minutes
• A pre-start meeting must be
convened with each sub-contractor
before they start work on site
• The pre-start meeting sets our
eight2O’s expectations of sub-
contractor behaviour
• The agenda is pre-start meetings is
standardised to ensure
completeness and consistency of
approach
• The pre-start meeting confirms
arrangements and responsibilities
between eight2O and the sub-
contractor’s team
