members, the rigging shall not be removed until all leveling and alignment is complete and the
item is secured in its permanent location. At that time rigging may be removed.
6.4
Personal protection
In all structures, all employees exposed to a fall hazard of 3 meters (10 feet) or more will wear
full-body harnesses. Static lines will be installed as needed to facilitate tying-off where
practicable. Connectors will be required to tie off at all times when installing or erecting steel.
Static lines will be along the perimeters and within the structure whenever employees are
exposed to fall from the height, and the employees shall tie-off whenever they are so exposed.
For the protection of other crafts, signs and barricades will be installed at the area where
erection of steel is in progress. Overhead protection must be made available in areas where
employees have to stand or walk under overhead work, and there is no other passage
possible.
Ladders, Stairways, walkways, passageways and runways will be erected to provide safe
access to and egress from work areas. Climbing or sliding down columns or diagonal bracing
is prohibited. Walking beams without being tied-off is also prohibited.
If, in any particular situation, compliance with the above is impossible or highly impractical, the
Safety Department must be notified to approve or define any required deviations before the
work commences. No deviations will be permitted without the express approval of the Site
Management.
It should be emphasized that this procedure is mandatory and must be followed at all times.
Any person, regardless of job function, who is found violating this procedure and exposing
either themselves or other employees to a fall hazard, will be subject to disciplinary action.
