Onshore Orientation & Emergency EvacuationOnshore Orientation & Emergency Evacuation

Onshore Orientation is an overview of what is required of employees while working on a land location.

This section will cover many individual topics relative to your safety and work environment.

Emergency Evacuation

• The immediate and rapid movement of people away from the threat and immediate danger.

• Emergency evacuation should be planned prior to any type of emergency that could exist in your field of operation.

Emergency Evacuation

All employees shall be trained and familiar with the emergency evacuation program.

The program shall be displayed in an accessible area for all employees.

Keep all exits clear of obstructions.

Know your assembly point in the event of an evacuation.

Be familiar with the company notification protocol.


Industrial Hygiene

Industrial Hygiene is the evaluation of environmental factors through measurement of exposure intensity, exposure frequency, and duration.

A Hygienist is a person who by study, training, and experience can: anticipate, recognize, evaluate and control workplace environmental hazards.


Hazards

Air contaminates: dusts, fumes, mists, aerosols and fibers.

Chemical agents: solids, liquids, gases, mists, dust, fumes and vapors.

Biological hazards: viruses, fungi, and other living organisms.


Hazards

Physical hazards: excessive levels of ionizing and non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation, noise, vibration, illumination, and temperature.

Ergonomic hazards: including but not limited to lifting, holding, pushing, walking, and reaching.


Worksite analysis is a good way to find and eliminate job hazards that may exist on your worksite.

If hazards cannot be completely eliminated, there are steps that can be taken to monitor the situation and minimize risk and control the hazard.

Machine guarding

Changing work practices


If you cannot eliminate or control the hazard, protect yourself with PPE.

Remember that PPE does not remove the risk, it lessens the impact of the risk.

Work Clothes/Personal Protective Equipment

It is important to choose PPE that fits you properly: size, weight, shape and type for the job.

If you have a change in body type that would potentially cause your PPE to not fit properly, contact your supervisor immediately.

PPE should be inspected on a regular basis and replaced when damaged or worn.



Fire Resistant Clothing (FRC) must be worn when the task requires it.

100% cotton long sleeve and long pants are recommended when FRC are not in use.

Hard hats shall be worn when required and inspected on a regular basis.

Safety glasses with side shields shall be worn when required.

Gloves shall be worn when required.

Safety toe footwear shall be worn when required.

Respirators

There are two main categories of respirators.

Air purifying: forces contaminated air through a filtering element.

Air supplied: an alternate supply of fresh air is delivered.

Onshore Orientation & Emergency EvacuationOnshore Orientation & Emergency EvacuationAir Purifying

Used against particulates such as smoke, fumes, gases and vapors that are at atmospheric concentrations less than immediately dangerous to life and health (IDLH). Examples include:

Negative pressure: uses mechanical filters and chemical media.

Positive pressure: air purifying respirators.

Escape only or hoods: air purifying for use by the general public.


Air Purifying

ANSI/ISEA 110 provides design guidance for respirators to ensure your protection and safety during use.

Air Supplied

Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) typically have three main components:

High pressure tank

Pressure regulator

Inhalation connection

Onshore Orientation & Emergency EvacuationOnshore Orientation & Emergency EvacuationAir Supplied

Most SCBAs are open-circuit which means a full- face mask, regulator, air cylinder, pressure gauge, and a harness with shoulder straps.

Commonly SCBAs are “positive pressure” but some are “demand” type which only supply air when you inhale.

Employees must be fit tested and medically qualified BEFORE using a respirator of any kind.


Banned Items

The following is a list of banned items that shall not be in possession of an employee at any time during working hours or on work locations. All employees should refer to your company policy.

Weapons: firearms, ammunitions, bows and arrows, and knives.

Illegal drugs Alcohol Explosives

New Personnel/Short Service Guidelines

A short service employee is new to the company and/or position they are working in.

New employees are often identified by color coded hard hats and/or being assigned to a mentor.

The mentoring process allows proper skills and processes to be conveyed.

Onshore Orientation & Emergency EvacuationOnshore Orientation & Emergency EvacuationNew Personnel/Short Service Guidelines

Generals rules include:

No fighting or horseplay.

Avoid working alone.

Report hazards or at-risk conditions to supervisor.

Smoke only in designated areas.

New Personnel/Short Service Guidelines

Rings, jewelry, loose hair and loose clothing are prohibited.

Do not ride on forklifts or use forklifts as man lifts.

All crew changes require communications between crews.

Never work on or service moving equipment.

Use the proper tool for each job task.


Reporting for Work

Being under the influence of drugs or alcohol poses unnecessary and unacceptable safety and health risks to you and co-workers.

Watch alcohol consumption the day before reporting to work.

Companies reserve the right to test for drug and alcohol misuse to ensure you are fit for duty.

Black Widow

Symptoms to watch for:

Dull, aching, or numbing sensation appears in 20-40 minutes.

Muscle pain and cramps near bite within 30-120 minutes.

Board-like rigidity of the abdomen, shoulders, and back may develop.

Pain generally peaks at 2-3 hours.


Brown Recluse (Fiddleback)

Call Poison Control if bitten (800-222-1222)

Brown Recluse (Fiddleback)

Symptoms to watch for:

Reaction depends on the amount of venom injected and the person’s sensitivity to the venom.

Bite may feel like a pinprick or go unnoticed.

Symptoms can take 2-8 hours to occur.

Typically small white blister surrounded by raised, reddened skin.


Bee/Wasp

Ensure the stinger has been removed if you are stung.

Wash area with soap and water.

Apply ice pack or cold compress.

Do not place directly on skin.

Elevate extremity.


Bee/Wasp

Watch for signs and symptoms other than at location of sting for at least 30 minutes.

Watch for signs of infection to show up later.


Mosquitoes

Wash bite area thoroughly with warm water and soap.

Mosquitoes can transmit serious diseases such as:

West Nile

Malaria

Yellow Fever

Mosquitoes

Signs and symptoms of more serious infection may include:

Fever

Severe headache

Body aches

Nausea/vomiting

Swollen glands

Rash

Lethargy

Confusion

Sensitivity to light

Jaundice


Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes select their victims by evaluating scent, exhaled carbon dioxide and the chemicals in your sweat.

Mosquitoes are more likely to bite: Men Those with type “O” blood Overweight individuals Those wearing dark colors


Rabid Animals

Rabies virus travels to the brain by following the peripheral nerves.

Incubation period of the disease is usually a few months.

Once rabies reaches the central nervous system and symptoms begin to show, the infection is effectively untreatable and usually fatal within days.


Rabid Animals

Symptoms:

Flu-like symptoms within 2-12 weeks of infection.

Malaise, headache and fever, progressing to acute pain, violent movements, uncontrolled excitement, depression and hydrophobia.

Patient may experience mania and lethargy that leads to coma.

Death is usually by respiratory insufficiency.


Adverse Weather

Lightning

Seek shelter avoiding trees and metal objects that can attract lightning.

Avoid open areas.

If you are outside, crouch down and put your weight on the balls of your feet.
