Communicate Safety Plan with Workers

Worker Habits and Behavior
Consider worker behavior when developing the ITCP. Determine locations where workers are likely to go and ensure safe routes to get there.

Worker Habits and Behavior
Consider common phone behavior:– Plugging the ear away from
the phone – Looking to the ground so
one can concentrate– Trying to block out busy,
noisy environment What hazards are
created?

Workers Must Be Visible
Workers must be visible with regards to their location around equipment . . .
![Page 7: Preventing Runovers and Backovers](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062816/568161e7550346895dd20e6a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Workers Must Be Visible
Workers must be visible with regards to their high visibility clothing. . .

Workers Must Be Visible
Workers must be visible in a variety of conditions, especially during night work.

Operators Must Confirm Before Workers Approach Equipment
Wait for a clear signal from the operator before approaching equipment.

High Risk Operations
Certain Operations Create High Risks• When the “ordinary” changes,
incidents are more likely to occur• Trucks back more frequently• Workers on foot are closer to
equipment• More equipment or vehicles are
on-site, moving• Repairs bring more people and
equipment near moving equipment
![Page 12: Preventing Runovers and Backovers](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062816/568161e7550346895dd20e6a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Mitigating Risk
Minimize movement of vehicles when workers on foot are performing change-over, repair or other tasks
Do not sacrifice safety procedures during such times.

High Risk Operations
Change from the “Routine”
Increases Risk

Drivers and Operators
Safe Practices
![Page 15: Preventing Runovers and Backovers](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062816/568161e7550346895dd20e6a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Backing Safety
There are several key principles to safe backing in work zones:
Backing should be controlled, used only when necessary and under specified conditions;
There should be clear communication between the operator and workers on foot before backing begins;
Everyone should understand the blind areas around the equipment on site.
![Page 16: Preventing Runovers and Backovers](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062816/568161e7550346895dd20e6a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Backing Safety
Remember/Review: Avoid backing up
unless necessary Walk around vehicle
to check for hazards Be aware of blind
areas Use a spotter when- ever
possible

Know Your Surroundings

Walk Around Vehicle Before Backing

Designate a Spotter
![Page 20: Preventing Runovers and Backovers](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062816/568161e7550346895dd20e6a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Spotters
Spotters are recommended by ANSI and other agencies;
Required in some states when camera/radar systems not used ;
Spotters are in danger from vehicles – who spots the spotter?
Spotters help when you must work with back to equipment or traffic;
If visual contact is lost with the spotter, stop immediately.

Vehicle Pathways
A key element of the Internal Traffic Control Plan is to develop a route plan vehicles will follow when entering, exiting, and traveling through the work space.
The route may be marked with temporary traffic control devices.
The plan must be communicated.

Worker Free & Equipment Free Zones
Worker Free Zones are locations from which workers on foot must stay clear, including:• Blind areas around equipment• Equipment travel lanes and queue areas in
paving trains• Moving equipment,
including swing radius, pinch points and moving parts
• Other hazardous areas, i.e. near power lines

Vehicles Entering the Work Space
Plan locations and procedures for assigned workers to approach vehicles (such as taking load tickets and communicating delivery locations and procedures).

Can Technology Help?
There are a variety of technologies—old and new—that have been developed to warn drivers and operators when workers on foot are near, including: Alarms Cameras Radar Sonar Tag Systems
