S.A.F.E.: STAYING ACCIDENT FREE EVERY DAY

S.A.F.E is the Safety Mission that forms the very foundation of the Consigli Safety Culture. The S.A.F.E. mission, which is supported by technology, (Predictive Solutions internal auditing instrument which identifies and defines leading indicator related information); Leadership (Empowering our team members to assure safe projects); Humanization (Protect the ones you love by protecting yourself); Jobsite Gym (Morning warm-ups, stretch and flex); Training (Integrating sub-contractors into the Consigli Safety Culture); and Lean (nothing hit the ground), is the driving force behind Consigli’ s drive to our vision – ZERO. ZERO is the philosophy that all accidents are preventable and that no accident is acceptable. The S.A.F.E. mission is the guiding force to achieving the Consigli Safety Vision which is ZERO.

IDENTIFY THE SPECIFIC ROUTE IN AND OUT OF THE CONSTRUCTION SITE (TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT): The attached proposed construction logistic plan is designed to isolate construction activity from the surrounding building/commercial district and while providing safe access for pedestrians and vehicles during normal day to day activities and / or emergencies at the Ossining Children’s Center project. All scheduled deliveries must be scheduled with Consigli’s project superintendent who shall upon approval of deliveries will direct such deliveries to the east gate of the project site off State Street. Three gates have been designated for this project and will be located as follows:

Gate A – Of State Street Gate “A” (As per the logistics plan). Will be mainly designated as the Construction site access/Site Office access
Gate B – Dual Gate Use ONLY. May be used as construction access if/when needed.

“Tire track pads” (Stone/Riprap) will be applied at all gates exiting to State Street to ensure excessive tire pickup shall be minimized during daily heavy construction traffic operations.

EXPOSURE TO STREET TRAFFIC: All deliveries as stated above will be made at the designated areas unless otherwise directed by CCNY Superintendent. There may be exposure to live vehicular traffic by construction vehicle traffic accessing and egressing the site which will require additional street traffic signage to ensure public and vehicular traffic are aware of the ongoing construction activities. All speed limits will be obeyed, and deliveries will be made as to coincide with working hours. All traffic control signage will meet NYS DOT requirements before being coordinated and installed. Local Fire dept. access will be maintained and kept open for emergency responders. The Ossining Children’s Center projects logistics plan is subject to change upon Consigli Project Team approval.

ACTIVITY SAFETY ANALYSIS (ASA)/JOB SAFETY ANALYSIS (JSA): An ASA/JSA depending on level of hazard shall be conducted for each identifiable feature of work to be performed. The ASA/JSA shall be reviewed each week with each subcontractor by Consigli superintendent/supervisor. ASA/JSA shall be reviewed weekly, signed by all workers including their supervisor, with all involved personnel performing that particular task. At no time is a subcontractor and subcontractor worker to perform any work without a drafted ASA/JSA in place and reviewed by all workers performing the work. Workers signature on all ASA’s and JSA’s ensures that communication of the assessed hazardous conditions and methods designed to mitigate such conditions has taken place by the subcontractor supervisor.
