SAFETY PROGRAMS FOR S & S ROOFING of America

 GENERAL SAFETY PROGRAM

S &S Safety Program Updated 2024

Safety program for S & S roofing, inc.

  1. Statement of Company Policy:

The welfare and safety of our employees is of primary concern to management.

Accidents result in unnecessary suffering and loss of wages, and all too often result in

permanent injury. It is therefore the policy of S & S Roofing Inc., to provide and maintain

safe and healthy working conditions and follow the safety practices, which will result in an

efficient operation.

 

To put forth our best efforts in going toward the prevention of accidents, we have

established a comprehensive Safety Program for S & S Roofing, Inc. Each one of us share

a responsibility for the prevention of accidents and we expect all of our employees to

cooperate with us to the fullest in order that this will be a safe place to work.

 

S & S Roofing, Inc. is interested in the safety of all personnel in the company. It

pursues a safety policy designed to eliminate accidents. Good equipment and good tools are

mandatory. Everything will be done to maintain safe working conditions. Each individual

in a supervisory capacity, from project manager to foreman, is responsible for the safety of

those in his charge. Each employee is expected to receive training and is expected and will

be required to cooperate fully in helping to protect himself and his fellow workers.

Subcontractors are expected and will be required to participate in all accident prevention

Measures.

 

S & S Roofing, Inc. is dedicated to the protection of its employees from on-the-job

injuries. All employees of S & S Roofing, Inc. have the responsibility to follow all safety

measures on a job. The purpose of this plan is: (a) To supplement our standard safety policy

by providing safety standards specifically designed to cover fall protection on this job and;

(b) to ensure that each employee is trained and made aware of the safety provisions

which are to be implemented by this plan prior to the beginning of the project.

 

Constant awareness of and respect for fall hazards, and compliance with all safety rules

are considered conditions of employment. The jobsite Superintendent, as well as individuals

in the Safety and Personnel Department, reserve the right to issue disciplinary warnings to

employees, up to and including termination, for failure to follow the guidelines of this

Program.

 

This Safety Program is designed to generally reflect company policy, but it is not intended to be a binding legal contract. Each employee performing work on a surface that is six (6)feet or more above a lower level must be protected from falls. 29 CFR § 1926.501 (b)(1). Fall Protection will be provided by S & S Roofing, Inc. when there is no existing guardrail or parapet at least 39 inches high. 29 CFR 1926.500 (b). S & S Roofing, Inc. will allow its workers to work on only those surfaces, which have the strength and structural integrity to support its employees safely. 29 CFR 1926.501 (a)(2).

 

The fall protection standard defines roofing work as “the hoisting, storage,

application, and removal of roofing materials and equipment, including related insulation,

sheet metal and vapor barrier work, but not including the construction of the roof deck.” 29

CFR 1926.500 (b). Stocking the roof with material for later installation of the roof falls

within the definition of roofing work. However, vendors who place materials at the site are

not required to install an anchorage point for fall protection, per an OSHA compliance

interpretation dated February 2, 1997.

 

The OSHA fall protection standards do not apply when making an inspection,

investigation of assessment of workplace conditions prior to the commencement of

construction work or after the completion of the project 29 CFR § 1926.500 At all times

during the actual construction work, workers regardless of job function, must be protected

from falls by at least one of the fall protection methods described.

 

Roof means the exterior surface on the top of a building. This does not include floors

or formwork, which, because a building has not been completed, temporarily become the

top surface of a building. Low-slope roof means a slope less than or equal to 4 on 12 (vertical

to horizontal). Steep slope roof is defined as a roof with a slope more than 4-in-12, with

unprotected sides and edges six (6) feet or more above lower levels.

 

On low-slope roofs, employees are given several options for compliance. S & S

Roofing, Inc. may use a single guardrail system [a barrier erected to prevent employees from

falling to lower levels], warning lines [a barrier erected on the roof to warn employees that

they are approaching an unprotected roof side or edge, and which designates an area where

roofing work will take place without the use of guardrail, body harness to protect employees

in the area], and personal fall arrest systems [a system used to arrest an employee in a fall

from a working level. It consists of anchorage, connectors, a body harness, and may include

a lanyard, deceleration device, lifeline or suitable combination of these] or a combination of

warning lines and guardrails, warning lines and personal fall arrest system and a safety

monitor [a competent person is responsible for recognizing and warning employees of fall

Hazards].

 

This safety program addresses the use of other than conventional fall protection at

several areas on a project, as well as identifying specific activities that require non-

conventional means of fall protection.

    1. Leading Edge Work (an “unprotected side and roof edge during periods when it is not actively and continuously under construction.
    2. Unprotected sides and edges (any side or edge [except at entrances to points of access] of walking/working surface [roof surface on which employees must be located in order to perform their job duties] e.g., roof, ramp,runway where there is no wall or guardrail system at least 39 inches [1.0 m] high)
  • Ladders
  • Chutes
  1. Holes (all openings greater than 12 inches x 12 inches will have perimeter guarding or covering).

 

This plan is designed to enable S & S Roofing, Inc. and its employees to recognize the

fall hazards on this project and to establish the procedures that are to be followed in order

to prevent falls to lower levels, through holes and openings in walking/working surfaces.

Each employee shall be trained in these procedures and strictly adhere to them except when

doing so would expose the employee to a greater hazard. If, in the employee’s opinion,

this is the case, the employee is to notify the foreman of his concern addressed before

Proceeding.

 

The safety policy and procedure on any one project cannot be administered,

implemented, monitored, and enforced by any one individual. The total objective of a safe,

accident-free work environment can only be accomplished by a dedicated, concerted effort by

every individual involved with the project from the management down to the last employee.

Each employee must understand their value to the company; costs of accidents, both policy

and procedures; the safety rules that apply to the safety policy and procedures; and what their

individual role is in administering, implementing, monitoring, and compliance of their safety

policy and procedures. This allows for a more personal approach to compliance through

planning, training, understanding, and cooperative effort, rather than by strict enforcement will

be implemented.

 

  1. Safety Organization:

Our goals are to make the safety of employees the highest priority and to avoid any

workplace accidents and injuries. To accomplish these goals, the duties and responsibilities of

all personnel must be clearly defined. The roles of Safety Managers, Project Managers,

Superintendents, and others are set forth below. Note that many responsibilities for safety

matters are intentionally designed to overlap. By having employees crosscheck each other,

the risk of injury from any hazard going undetected is minimized.

 

Matt Restuccia shall be designated as the Safety Manager. His responsibilities be as follows:

  1. Administration: Responsible for the formulation, administer, and recommend changes to the Safety Program. Make certain that the Federal; State and/or local laws on safety are complied with.

All workers have a responsibility to participate in a safe environment for working.

Their responsibilities include but are not limited to the following:

 

S & S Roofing, Inc. in order to recognize and deal with the hazards of falling

associated with working near a roof perimeter shall be train its employees in the fall

protection procedures to be followed in order to prevent such falls.

 

  1. S & S Roofing, Inc. shall assure that all employees working for the company shall have been trained and instructed in the following areas:
    1. The nature of fall hazards in the work area.
    2. The function, use, and operation of Fall Protection Systems and Safety Monitoring System to be used.
    3. The correct procedures for erecting, maintaining, and disassembling the system to be used.
    4. The role of each employee in the safety monitoring program.
    5.  The limitations on the use of mechanical equipment.
    6. The correct procedures for the handling and storage of equipment and materials.
  2. Training shall be provided to each newly hired employee, and all other employees, when necessary, to assure that all employees maintain proficiency.

 

S & S Roofing, Inc. is dedicated to the protection of its employees from on-the- job

injuries. S & S Roofing, Inc. shall provide a training program for all employees engaged in

safety on the job. The purpose of this plan is: (a) To supplement our standard safety

policy by providing safety standards specifically designed to cover fall protection on this job

and (b) to ensure that each employee is trained and made aware of the safety provisions

which are to be implemented by this plan prior to the start of erection.

 

On low slope roofs, defined as roofs with a slope less than or equal to four (4) on

twelve (12), employees are given several options for compliance. The S & S Roofing may

use singly a guardrail system or personal fall arrest system or a combination of warning

lines and guardrails, warning lines and personal fall arrest, or warning lines and a safety

Monitor.

 

This Fall Protection Plan address the use of other than conventional fall protection at

several areas on the project, as well as identifying specific activities that require non-

conventional means of fall protection. These areas include:

  1. Leading Edge Work
  2. Unprotected sides or edges

 

This plan is designed to enable employers and employees to recognize the fall

hazards on a job and to establish the procedures that are to be followed in order to

prevent falls to lower levels or through holes and openings in walking/working surfaces. Each

employee will be trained in these procedures and strictly adhere to them except when

doing so would expose the employee to a greater hazard. If, in the employee’s opinion, this

is the case, the employee is to notify the foreman of the concern and the concern addressed

before proceeding.

 

Safety policy and procedure on any one project cannot be administered,

implemented, monitored and enforced by any one individual. The total objective of a safe,

accident-free work environment can only be accomplished by a dedicated, concerted effort by

every individual involved with the project from the management down to the last employee.

Each employee must understand their value to the company; the costs of accidents, both

policy and procedures; the safety rules that apply to the safety policy and procedures; and

what their individual role is in administering, implementing, monitoring, and compliance of

their safety policy and procedures. This allows for a more personal approach to compliance

through planning, training, understanding and cooperative effort, rather than by strict

enforcement will be implemented.

 

It is the responsibility of Yury Spektor, Greg Zastowny, Larry West and other management personnel to implement this Fall Protection Plan. They are responsible for

continual observational safety checks of their work operations and to enforce the safety

policy and procedures. The foreman is responsible to correct any unsafe acts or conditions

immediately. It is the responsibility of the employee to understand and adhere to the procedures

of this plan and to follow the instructions of the foreman. It is also the responsibility of the

employee to bring to management’s attention any unsafe or hazardous conditions, acts that

may cause injury to either themselves or any other employees. Larry West must approve any

changes to this Fall Protection Plan

 

III. Fall Protection Systems to be used on the Projects:

Where conventional fall protection is infeasible or creates a greater hazard at the

leading edge and during initial connecting activity, we plan to do this work using a safety

monitoring system and expose only a minimum number of employees for the time necessary to

accomplish this job. The maximum number of workers to be monitored by one safety

monitor is six (6). Only trained employees designated as erectors are permitted to enter the

controlled access zones and work with the use of conventional fall protection.

 

Safety monitors shall wear orange vests.

 

Only individuals with the appropriate experience, skills, and training will be authorized as

designed erectors. The program shall enable each employee to recognize the hazards and

shall train each employee in the procedures to be followed in order to minimize any

hazards. All employees that will be working as designated erectors under the safety

monitoring system shall have been trained and instructed in the following areas:

  1. Recognition of the fall hazards in the work area
  2. Avoidance of fall hazards using established work practices, which have been known to the employees.
  3. Recognition of unsafe practices or working conditions that could lead to a fall, such as windy conditions.
  4. The function, use, and operations of safety monitoring systems, guardrail systems, body belt/harness systems, control zones and other protection to be used.
  5. The correct procedure for erecting, maintaining, disassembling and inspecting the system(s) to be used.
  6. Knowledge of construction sequence.
  7. The use of and operation of guardrail systems, personal fall arrest systems, safety net system, warning line systems, safety monitoring systems, controlled access zones, and other protection to be used.
  8. The role of each employee in the safety monitoring system when this system is used.
  9. The limitations on the use of mechanical equipment during the performance of roofing work on low-sloped roofs.
  10. The correct procedures for the handling and storage of equipment and materials and the erection of overhead protection.
  11. The role of employees in fall protection plans.
  12. Certification of training.
  13. S & S Roofing, Inc. will verify compliance of training by preparing awritten certification record. The written certification record shall contain the name of the employee trained, the dates of training, and the signature of the person who conducted the training or the signature of Jonathan F. Blank.
  14. The latest training certification shall be maintained.
  15. “Retraining” When S & S Roofing, Inc. has reason to believe that any affected employee who has already been trained does not have the understanding and skill required S & S Roofing, Inc. shall retrain each such employee. Circumstances where retraining is required include, but not limited to, situations where:
    1. Changes in the workplace render previous training obsolete
    2. Changes in the types of fall protection systems or equipment to be used render previous training obsolete.
    3. Inadequacies in an affected employee’s knowledge or use of all protection systems or equipment indicate that the employee has not retained the required understanding or skill.

 

A conference will take place prior to starting work involving members of the crew and

supervisors of any other concerned contractors. During the pre-work conference, sequences

pertinent to this job will be thoroughly discussed and safety practices to be used throughout

the project will be discussed. Further, all personnel will be informed that the controlled

access zones are off limits to all other personnel other than those designated erectors

specifically trained to work in that area.

 

Safety Monitoring System:

A safety monitoring system means a fall protection system in which a competent

person is responsible for recognizing and warning employees of fall hazards. The duties of the

safety monitor are:

  1. Warn by voice when approaching the open edge in an unsafe manner.
  2. Warn by voice if there is a dangerous situation developing which cannot be seen

by another person involved with product placement, such as a member out of

control.

  1. Make the designated erectors aware they are in a dangerous area.
  2. Warn employees when they appear to be unaware of a fall hazard or are acting in an

unsafe manner.

  1. Be on the same walking/working surface as the monitored employees and

within visual sighting distance of the monitored employees.

  1. Be close enough to communicate orally with the employees.
  2. Not allow other responsibilities to encumber monitoring. If the safety monitor

becomes too encumbered with other responsibilities, the monitor shall (a) stop

the erection process (b) turn over other responsibilities to a designated erector; or

(c) turn over the safety monitoring function to another designated, competent

person. The safety monitoring system shall not be used when the wind is strong

enough to cause loads with large surface areas to swing out of radius, or result in

loss of control of the load, or when the weather conditions cause the walking-

working surfaces to become icy or slippery.

 

Control Zone System:

A controlled access zone means an area designated and clearly marked, in which

leading work may take place without the use of guardrail, safety net, or personal fall

arrest systems to protect the employees in the area. Control zone systems shall comply with

the following provisions:

 

  1. When used to control access to areas where leading edge and other operations

are taking place the controlled access zone shall be defined by a control line or

by any other means that restrict access. When control lines are used, they shall

be erected not less than 6 feet (1.8m) nor more than 60 feet (18 m) or half the

length of the member being erected, whichever is less, from the leading edge.

  1. The control line shall extend along the entire length of the unprotected or

leading edge and shall be approximately parallel to the unprotected or

leading edge.

  1. The control line shall be connected on each side to a guardrail or wall.
  2. Control lines shall consist of ropes, wires, tapes, or equivalent materials, and

supporting stanchions as follows:

  1. Each line shall be flagged or otherwise clearly marked at nor more than 6 foot

(1.8m) intervals with high visibility material.

  1. Each line shall be rigged and supported in such a way that its lowest point

(including sag) is not less than 39 inches (1 m) from the walking/working

surface and its highest point is not more than 45 inches (1.3 m) from the

walking/working surface.

  1. Each line shall have a minimum breaking strength of 200 pounds (.88kN).

 

Holes:

Openings for skylights and other roof penetrations are considered holes if there is a

gap or void of 2 inches or more in its least dimension. Each employee on walking/working

surfaces shall be protected from falling through holes or skylights more than 6 feet (1.8 m)

above lower levels, by personal fall arrest systems, covers, or guardrails systems erected

around such holes.

 

  1. Each employee on a walking/working surface shall be protected from

tripping in or stepping into or through holes (including skylights) by covers.

  1. Each employee on a walking/working surface shall be protected from falling

through holes (including skylights) by covers.

  1. Covers must be capable of supporting at least twice the weight of the

employee, equipment and materials that may be imposed on them, must be

secured to prevent displacement, and shall be color coded or marked with the

word “HOLE” or “COVER”.

 

Ladders:

Portable ladders, when used for access to an upper landing surface, must have side

rails that extend at least three feet above the landing surface (top of the roof) to which the

ladder is used to gain access. When the three-foot extension is not possible because of the

ladder’s length, the ladder must be secured at the top to a rigid support that will not deflect,and a grasping device, such as a grab rail, must be provided to assist employees in

mounting and dismounting the ladder. Ladders are to be used only on solid and level surfaces.

Ladders must be secured to prevent accidental displacement and a barricade (guardrail

system) must be used to keep activity or traffic away from the ladder. The area around the top

and bottom of ladders must be kept clear. The top or top step of a stepladder must not be used

as a step.

 

Ladders shall be capable of supporting the following loads:

  1. Each self-supporting portable ladder: At least four times the maximum

intended load, except that each extra-heavy-duty type 1A metal or plastic

ladder shall sustain at least 3.3 times the maximum intended load. The ability

of a ladder to sustain loads shall be determined by applying or transmitting

the requisite load to the ladder in a downward vertical direction.

  1. Each portable ladder that is not self-supporting: At least four times the

maximum intended load, except that each extra-heavy-duty type 1A metal or

plastic ladders shall sustain at least 3.3 time the maximum loaded intended

load. The ability of a ladder to sustain the loads indicated shall be determined

by applying or transmitting the requisite load to the ladder in a downward

vertical direction when the ladder is placed at an angle of 75.5° from the

Horizontal.

 

Non-self-supporting (portable) ladders shall be used at an angle such that horizontal

distance from the top support to the foot of the ladder is approximately one- quarter (1/4) of

the working length of the ladder (distance along the ladder between the foot and the top

support).

 

Ladder rungs, cleats, and steps must be parallel, level and uniformly spaced when the

ladder is in position for use. Rungs, cleats, and steps of portable ladders shall be spaced

not less than 10 inches (25 cm) apart, nor more than 14 inches (36 cm) apart, as measured

between center lines of the rungs, cleats, and steps.

 

The minimum clear distance between the sides of individual rung/step ladders and

minimum clear distance between the side rails of other fixed ladders shall be 16 inches (41

cm).

 

The minimum clear distance between side rails for all portable ladders shall be

11.5 inches (29 cm).

 

The rungs and steps of fixed metal ladders manufactured after March 15, 1991, shall

be corrugated, knurled, dimpled, coated with skid-resistant material, or otherwise treated to

minimize slipping. The same applies to portable metal ladders. The ladder is to be kept free of

oil, grease, and other slipping hazards.

 

Ladders should not be tied or fastened together to provide longer sections unless they

are specifically designed for such. A metal spreader or locking device shall be provided on

each stepladder to hold the front and back sections in an open position when the ladder is

being used.

 

When splicing is required to obtain a given length of side rail, the resulting side rail must beat least equivalent in strength to a one-piece side rail made of the same material.

 

Ladder components shall be surfaced so as to prevent injury to an employee from

punctures or lacerations, and to prevent snagging of clothing.

 

Wood ladders shall not be coated with any opaque covering, except for

identification or warning labels, which may be placed on one face of a side rail.

 

Ladders must be inspected by a competent person for visible defects on a periodic basis

and after any occurrence that could affect their use. Portable ladders with structural defects

must be tagged or marked as defective and must be withdrawn from service until repaired.

When going up or down the ladder, employees must use at least one hand to grasp the ladder,

must face the ladder, and shall not carry an object or load that could cause the roofer to lose his

balance and fall.

 

Detailing:

Employees exposed to falls of six (6) feet or more to lower levels, who are not

actively engaged in leading edge work and who are working less than six (6) feet from an

unprotected edge will be always tied off or guardrails will be installed. Employees engaged

in these activities but who are more than six (6) feet from an unprotected edge as defined by

the control zones lines, do not require fall protection but a warning line or control lines

must be erected to remind employees they are approaching an area where fall protection is

Required.

 

Enforcement:

Constant awareness of and respect for fall hazards, and compliance with all safety rules

are considered conditions of employment. The jobsite Superintendent, as well as individuals

in the Safety and Personnel Department, reserve the right to issue disciplinary warnings to

employees, up to and including termination, for failure to following the guidelines of this

Program.

 

Accident Investigations:

All accidents that result in injury to workers, regardless of their nature, shall be

investigated and reported. It is an integral part of any safety program that documentation takes

place as soon as possible so that the cause and means of prevention can be identified to prevent a reoccurrence.

 

If an employee falls or there is some other related, serious incident occurring, this plan shall be

reviewed to determine if additional practices, procedures, or training need to be implemented

to prevent similar types of falls or incidents from occurring.

 

Changes to Plan:

Yury Spektor will approve any changes to the plan. A qualified person shall review this

plan as the job progresses to determine if additional practices, procedures or training needs to

be implemented to improve or provide additional fall protection. Workers shall be notified and

trained, if necessary, in new procedures. A copy of this plan and all approved changes shall be

maintained at the jobsite.
