HAZARD ANALYSIS
Proposed Site Safety Advisor (and Safety Officers), shall conduct a walk-through of
the project site and shall identify potential hazard areas and/or situations, and record
the findings on the Plot Plan. A report will be submitted to the CM and as and when
require CM Safety Staff will join the walk-though.
Once the hazards have been identified, they are to be classified as Class A, B or
C to describe the potential severity as noted below:
Class A Hazards. A condition or practice likely to cause permanent disability,

loss of life or body part and/or extensive loss of equipment or materials.
Class B Hazards. A condition or practice likely to cause serious injury or

illness (resulting in temporary disability) or property damage that is disruptive, but
less severe than Class A.
Class C Hazards. A condition or practice likely to cause minor (non-disability)

injury or illness or non-disruptive property damage.
HAZARDS TO BE ADDRESSED
Outlined below are the various types of hazards typical in a construction site. In the event a
hazard has not been covered in the findings during HIP walk-through, the following will be a
guide to ensure all hazards are covered:

CLASS A HAZARDS
Activities
Description of Potential Hazard &

Preventive Measures
Temporary & Permanent Electricity
Distribution of electricity in the construction site

is different from a permanent installation.
Hazards will arise when unskilled or unqualified
electricians carry out electrical work. The use of
Lock-Out and Hold Tags maybe called for on
certain operations. The use of GFCIs is required
on all Construction sites.
Crane & critical lifts like equipment that will be
Crane & Critical Lifts
utilized for dynamic compaction & dynamic
replacement are major hazards. Where large or
heavy pieces of equipment, inexperienced
workmen, uncertified operators and unapproved
equipment are combined, accidents can occur.
Procedures as outlined in CLIENT Construction
Safety Manual & Crane Safety Handbook must
be followed.
Slings & Lifting Gear
Exceeding the safe working load of rigging
equipment, using un-inspected or damaged slings
or using untrained personnel can cause accidents.
Compliance with approved procedures as
outlined in the latest CLIENT Construction
Safety Manual and Crane Safety Handbook is a
must.
Welding, cutting and brazing are safe operations
Welding, Cutting & Brazing
if carried out in the correct manner. Where
equipment is defective, or there is no wellarranged plan to carry out this type of work,
hazards can arise. Ensure that only safe
equipments are being used and works carried-out
by competent personnel.
The use of sub-standard material, combined with
Scaffolding & Ladders
inexperienced, untrained and not certified
workmen, presents a hazard when using a
scaffold and ladder. Only competent, trained,
certified workmen will erect scaffolding,
supervised by Certified Scaffolding Supervisor
and inspected by a Certified Scaffolding
Inspector. Careful erection and inspection of
scaffolding is essential to prevent accidents.
Manholes/Excavations, Pits, Trenching & No ground containing an excavation can be relied
upon to support its own weight. No pit or
Shoring
manhole can be considered safe. Rescue

Preventive Measures
must be in place prior to start of any work these
areas.
Should work be carried out in close proximity to
existing obstructions, specifically, hydrocarbon
related pipe bridges, caution shall be taken to
ensure that damage is not caused to CLIENT
facilities, or Contractors equipment or
employees during excavations or lifting
operations. Goal posts shall be installed to
establish a safe distance between work area and
overhead obstruction.
Several factors must be taken into account before
any road is blocked or re-routed. Prior to the
method of blockage being decided, or prime
importance are the methods of construction and
the surround hazards, i.e. high water table and
pump requirement, traffic flow at various times
of the day, etc. CLIENT and Safety Section shall
be notified prior to any proposed road blockage
or re-routing and traffic plan shall be submitted
for review/approval. Road blockage/re-routing
shall be made to comply with CLIENT General
Instructions.
This covers several area of work, all of which
present hazards. The placement of reinforcing
steel, concrete, vertical shoring, formwork and
shuttering, are but a few to the concerns that
should be considered in any HIP. Accidents can
be caused by employees actions/inactions, and/or
unanticipated failure of mechanical devices,
concrete forms or shuttering.
Sandblasting can cause hazards not only to the
operators, but also assistants and other people in
the area, if hydrocarbons are present, if
sandblasting equipment is incorrectly grounded or
if proper protective is not worn.
Boring underneath roadways can cause
subsidence, cave-in, damage to other underground
utilities and can create traffic flow disruption.
Prior to carrying out this work, a method
statement, including detour plan, shall be
submitted to CLIENT/Safety Section for
review/approval.

Hot Taps
Personal Safety
Paints & Coatings
Explosive Material
Piling Operations
Asbestos & Other Fibers
Demolition

Preventive Measures
Installation of hot taps by inexperienced
workmen, H2S presence, working in confined
areas and unmaintained hot tap machines, can all
cause accidents.
Incorrect types or sub-standard personal
protective equipment can lead to accidents. All
PPE must be made to comply with ANSI or
OSHA Standards. This includes hard hats, safety
glasses, safety shoes/boots and full body
harnesses.
Paints and coatings, improperly handled, stored,
prepared and applied, can cause harmful
conditions. Ventilation is a prime area of concern
in the application of any paint or coating being
applied on the Construction site. Note: See
Chemicals section of this program for details on
maintaining a MSDS. Additionally, special
attention must be taken in the storage of paints &
coatings.
Handling, storage, transportation and misfires
using explosives all can cause hazardous
conditions.
Widely used in constructions operations, piling
without good experienced workmen, well
maintained equipment and with the stress and
vibration imposed on that equipment, can lead to
hazardous conditions.
Asbestos has been widely used in the construction
industry, and is the generic name given to a
number of inorganic fibrous silicate minerals.
Disposal,
storage,
handling,
ventilation,
transportation and over exposure can all cause
Many factors must be considered prior to any
demolition including the structures age, method
of construction, state of preservation, its previous
use, the type of material used in the construction
and/or renovations and the surrounding
environment (see the notes on Asbestos & Other
Fibers above). Accidents can happen when due
consideration is not given to all the foregoing, as

well as cleansing and degreasing equipment.
Any chemical should be treated as hazardous.
Handling, storage, identification and labels which
are incorrectly tagged and spillages can cause
extremely
hazardous
conditions.
Follow
procedures as outlined in Contractors Safety Plan.
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) shall be
established and maintained by the Contractor.
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), widely used in
the construction industry, is normally odourless,
colorless and heavier than air. In commercial
usage, an odorizing agent is added to facilitate
detection of accidental gas escapes. Incorrect
handling, storage or labelling can cause extremely
Fuel incorrectly stored or mishandled can cause
accidents. Refuelling operations require special
attention. Fuel must not be stored or transported
in plastic containers. All containers, including
fuel tanks, must be grounded and bonded to the
equipment into which fuel is being transferred.
Berms are required to contain spillages in larger
fuel storage tanks.
Construction operations could affect the
movement of hydrocarbons if not planned and
performed in accordance with the standard
operating procedures.
Ionizing industrial radiation, such as X-Rays
generated by equipment or gamma rays emitted
spontaneously by radioactive materials, are
widely used for non-destructive testing, without
damaging the tested materials. However, they can
penetrate the human body, unknown, as the senses
cannot recognize them, causing living cells in the
body harm.

CLASS B HAZARDS
Activities

Preventive Measures
Heavy Equipment Operation
Heavy equipment operated by uncertified operators,

equipment lacking maintenance or lack of a back-up
spotter (banks-man) are potential hazards. These
operations could be reclassified as Class A if the
physical layout of the area offers additional hazards,
such tank farms, congested traffic flow, etc. Equipment
shall only be operated by certified and competent
operators who know the limitation of his equipment.
Material Handling
Material handling forms a large part of construction

work. How these materials are handled and stored can
have a considerable effect on the job safety. The type
of material being handled may require up-grading to
Class A Hazard and handling should also be
upgraded accordingly.
Hand/Power Tools
Power tools allow many jobs to be carried out more

efficiently and with greater speed and accuracy.
However, hazards will arise when unskilled and
untrained workers are allowed to operate hand/power
tools. Proper training and experience must be the
criteria for allowing a worker to use hand/power tools.
Site Office & Lay-down Yard
Site offices and lay-down yard, including flammable

storage facilities shall be constructed with safety and
efficiency in mind. Negligence of such factors could
lead to unfortunate incidents. All utilities shall be made
to comply with CSM requirement. Proper operation and
maintenance shall be established. Layouts shall be
submitted to CM /Safety Section for review/approval
prior to construction.
Mechanical Equipment
Mechanical equipment can cause hazard if the

operators are not properly trained and the equipment is
poorly maintained. Only trained operators shall operate
properly maintained equipment.

Preventive Measures
A major factor influencing the health of
individuals is sanitation & housekeeping.
Diseases and sickness could easily be
transmitted without the practice of proper
sanitation and hygiene. And no work can be
considered as complete unless housekeeping
is done and done regularly. Waste disposal
system shall be established and maintained,
insect, rodent and pest control shall also be
conducted regularly.
TRAFFIC:
The general traffic plan applicable for this project at the commencement of the work shall be the
result of a careful study in the actual traffic flow in the area. Considering the nature of the project
area, an accurate traffic plan will be prepared by the field Safety Supervisor, specifically on the
working areas and will be distributed at various departments at site and implemented
accordingly, prior to start of work.

Dumpers and Dump Trucks shall be extensively used for this project. Thus it is essential
that they be properly maintained. The latch on dumper skips must be in good working
order, and the release mechanism should function smoothly. Dumpers are not designed to
carry passengers. It must be strictly forbidden for employees to ride in the skip or on the
engine cover. When repairs or maintenance are being carried out on a hydraulically
operated dump truck, the dump body should be fully lowered. Dump Truck Drivers shall
have a SAG license;
Trailers, Dozers, Loaders and Mini-loaders Heavy earth moving equipment only allows

(10)
Excavators
Excavations are carried out using very specialized equipment that basically falls into two
categories: 1) fixed position machines, and 2) moving machines.
The choice of equipment to be used is determined by the size of the project, topography,
volume of earth to be hauled out and many other factors. Fixed position machines
include, but are not limited to, face shovels, backhoes, draglines and grabs. The fixed
excavator loosens the soil and loads from a stationary position. They are useful to
perform specific excavation tasks at a single location.
Their loss of mobility is compensated by the fact that greater force can be applied at the
excavation face. Moving machines include, but are not limited to, bulldozers, loaders,
Page 33 of 59
trailers and trenching machines. They remove, transport and deposit excavated material
all in one cycle of operation. They are used in applications where large volumes of earth
need to be moved over uneven ground. In this process, they also help to level the ground
over which they operate.
Operators of excavators must possess a valid Saudi Arab Government license for the
machine and a valid independent 3rd party Certification.

Emergency Response Procedure (ERP)
[1]
Reporting Emergencies person or persons who first discover the incident should report
to senior operations person using the nearest available communication facility (if
telephone is available, dial 9998 and follow the posted emergency reporting instructions).
Also, Senior operations person could be CM Representative who would report the
incident to the Proponent Representative (or Shift Superintendent) who in turn would
report to the Safety Manager or Contractor Site Safety Advisor who would report to CM
Representative.
[2]
[3]
Initiating the Alarm pre-established appropriate signal alarm (i.e. stop work,
evacuation and all clear) should be sounded to inform all concerned persons within
the vicinity of the emergency and guide them on the specific action they need to take.
Assessing the Situation Senior Operations Persons (i.e. Proponent Representative, CM
Safety Representative will assist on required if necessary) shall assess:
[a]
[b]
[c]
[d]
[4]
The emergency response action taken or being taken.

Additional actions and resources required to control the situation.
Extent of damage to property and harm or negative impact to life.
Existing hazardous condition and their likelihood to escalate.
Mobilization of Resources:
[a]
[b]
[c]
[d]
[e]
A combine resources of both facility & contractors personnel & equipment will
be mobilized to bring the emergency under control. If required, external groups
will be contacted.
Personnel of the combined resources are to proceed to their pre-assigned locations
and await instruction from the Senior Operations Person.
Non-essential plant & contractors personnel are to be evacuated to pre-assigned
assembly areas at a safe distance from the incident scene. Supervisory or assigned
personnel are to take head count and DCC is to organize search and rescue for any
missing personnel.
Support groups such as Security, Medical, and Fire Protection & Maintenance are
to report to their pre-assigned locations and must commence any preauthorized
emergency response related actions.

telephone). One in-plant radio channel is reserved as the main communication
link between the Safety Manager and Incident Coordinator.
Page 50 of 59
A telephone number with a pre-recorded message providing essential up-to-date

information on the incident will be established.
[5]
Suppression/Control of Incident Senior Operations Person will identify

emergency/disaster scenario and apply the appropriate suppression/control of the
incident. For instance, when dealing with fire that is generally caused as a result of
ignition of a gas (or liquid) hydrocarbon leak under pressure, unburned liquid
hydrocarbon should not be allowed to pool in the ground and fuel the fire. Capabilities of
the fire fighting system and personnel in place should be continuously monitored and
evaluated to ensure that it is sufficient to suppress or control the incident and if help is
required, to ensure that its quick enough to arrive on time.
[6]
Post Incident Action once an emergency is declared under control by the Safety
Manager, the following actions shall be undertaken:
[a]

[b]
Investigate and Report incident investigation of causes will be made according to

prescribed procedures.
[c]
Restore Operations post emergency actions which must be followed to restore

normal operations at the facility.
[d]
Revise the Plan all new information gathered as a result of the incident should be
analyzed to determine what improvements could be made to the facility and the work
areas ERP. These improvements should be incorporated into the Plan and all emergency
response personnel should be retrained and drilled to ensure that they are familiar with
and proficient in the updated procedures. All the names related to ERP will be published
in site Notice board with Telephone / Contact No.s to be sent by all at site.

In order to ensure that this objective will be achieved, SBG shall employ the services of
Insect & Rodent Control Specialist, who would have a periodic visit in site to apply
preventive measures. Such measures shall be made to comply with applicable provisions
of Saudi Agent Sanitary Code (SASC-S-08.)
6.2.3 Oil Spillage Control personnel handling fuel/oil shall be briefed on the preventive
measures required to prevent fuel/oil spillage. Probable causes have been determined to
have originated from fuel transfer operation and during equipment maintenance. To
prevent spillage, leak free equipment shall be provided during fuel transfer and airtight
containers shall also be provided during equipment maintenance. In the event of a major
spillage, the following shall be done:
6.2.3.1 SBG shall promptly notify the CM.

6.2.3.2 SBG shall comply with the land oil spill General Instruction (OSHA, 1910.1052,
APP. A), A summary of the typical response is given below: Notify the HSE Advisor and the Project Manager immediately. Eliminate sources of
ignition near spill area.
When it can be performed safely, stop source of spill and contain spilled material using
absorbent pads and booms within as small an area as possible. The spill should
not be rinsed away.
The HSE Advisor and the Project Manager will secure the area and establish perimeter
control at a safe distance from the spill.
Screen and cover stockpiles of polluted matter to prevent dispersion. Seal off drains that
polluting matter may enter.
If an immediate threat to human health or the environment does not exist, the HSE
Advisor and the Construction Manager will arrange for safe clean up of the spilled
materials.
Contaminated soils and clean-up materials from such spills must be handled properly and
placed in a suitable container that is then labeled and stored in the appropriate location
for subsequent disposal.
If the pollution incident impacts any resources, the appropriate agency or authority must
be contacted as soon as possible.
A hazardous material incident control guide will be developed for use by the emergency
response team to achieve the above.
The pollutant shall be contained and cleaned up, and the incident reported to the
appropriate authorities.
6.2.3.3 Any recovered hydrocarbon or hydrocarbon-contaminated material shall be
properly disposed, recycled if possible or disposed as per G.I.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY AND OBJECTIVES
5.1
SBGs environmental policy is reproduced below from the Corporate Quality Manual.
SBG is committed to conducting all of its activities with the proper regard for the
environment in which we work. This not only means the prevention of pollution,
or its minimisation where prevention is impossible, but also compliance with our
contracts and all laws and legislation relating to the environment wherever we
conduct our business.
All of our construction and related activities are assessed for any adverse impact
on the environment and measures taken to control them, documented in method
statements on a project and in the Operations Plan for our offices and other
facilities. In addition, each project or facility is set targets to measure
performance against our policy and senior management regularly reviews these
with the aim of continual improvement of the system.
SBG is also committed to enhancing the environment where possible by the
minimum use of resources through the reduction or elimination of waste, the
recycling of waste and the use of appropriate technology. Accordingly, all
personnel are required to implement the environmental management system in so
far as it applies to their work and to contribute actively to its improvement during
the course of their duties.
5.2
Our principal environmental objectives are
To prevent incidents at the workplace that result in pollution.

To minimise our use of natural resources.
To minimise the adverse impact on the environment due to our construction
activities.
6.0
PLANNING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
6.1
The Project Manager will ensure that the Permanent Works are constructed such that
they have the minimal adverse impact on the environment. An environmental impact
assessment will be performed on all aspects of the work described in each method
statement. The resultant Environmental Impact Statement, developed to eliminate the
impact or reduce it to a tolerable level, is included in the method statement and is
approved prior to the work commencing.
6.2
It is also SBGs policy that other activities on the project such as the plant workshop
and the workers site also adopt environmentally responsible work practices in
accordance with our environmental management system. Where appropriate,
environmental impact control programmers for standard activities will be issued to
assure compliance with our requirements.
E- 3
6.3
All work and support activities shall aim to avoid or reduce to a practical minimum
common pollution such as dust, noise, waste and gases such as NO (nitrogen oxides),
SO2 (sulphur dioxide) and CO2 (carbon dioxide). To reduce air pollution to a minimum
there will be no unnecessary idling of vehicles.
6.4
All subcontractors appointed to construct the Permanent Works are assessed and
selected in accordance with general procedure on the basis not only of their capability to
meet both the quality requirements and the programme but also to meet acceptable
environmental standards and local legislation.
6.5
Each subcontractor is required to work in a way that is compatible with our system. A
subcontractors environmental plan, if prepared, is reviewed and approved by the
Project Manager and the Site HSE Advisor in advance of work starting. A subcontractor
that does not develop his own environmental plan will be required to work under ours.

couplers. They may however, be laid across ledgers and secured with putlog clips
provided that they are not more than 300mm from each pair of standards.
1.2.5
Ties
1.2.5.1
Ties must be fixed at every second lift and every second standard.
1.2.5.2
Where a scaffold has been sheeted out with tarpaulins, consideration will be given to
additional wind loading and the insertion of additional ties.

As a general rule, ties must always be inserted. Where this is not possible, one of
the following actions may be taken.
On small scaffolds not extending above three lifts, adequate stability of the
scaffold can be achieved by rakers. The raker will be secured with right angle
couplers to the ledger at the second lift. The load in the raker will be distributed
through a base plate or if required a sole plate. The foot of the raker will be
tied back to the main scaffold. Rakers will be inserted at the same standard
spacing as ties.
Where a scaffold extends above three lifts, a well-braced buttress shall be erected
along the total length of the structure. The buttress shall be erected to a height
no lower than the third lift from the top of the scaffold. The scaffold will
then be raked back from the second top lift to the buttress, using right-angled
couplers.
1.2.5.7
No raker shall extend more than 3m without being tied back at its mid point.
1.2.6
Braces

REQUIREMENTS FOR
HOT WEATHER AND
HEAT STRESS
K-1
1.0
PURPOSE
To provide a safe working surrounding by establishing a procedure that addresses
temperature extremes and reduces exposure to the effects of heat related hazards.
To provide adequate access to drinking water and regimen for working in high heat
areas
To monitor workers and ensure they are consuming adequate amounts of water.

HEAT STRESS is usually the result of work being performed at elevated
temperatures. Contributory factors may also include a decrease of natural body
ventilation by protective clothing e.g. chemical & impervious suits.
NOTE: If the bodys physiological processes fail to maintain a normal body
temperature because of excessive heat, a number of physical reactions can occur
ranging from mild (such as fatigue, irritability, anxiety, and decreased
concentration, dexterity , or movement) to fatal. Because heat stress is one of the
most common and potentially serious illnesses that construction workers
encounters, in areas where high temperatures are normally encountered, regular
monitoring and other preventative measures are vital.
5.0
RESPONSIBILITIES
It is the responsibility of each Manager. Department Head, Engineer, foreman,
charge-hand to ensure that their workers are informed of the physical hazards to
Heat Exposure.
Supervision shall actively monitor the work force for signs and symptoms of heat
stress.
The Site HSE Advisor / Doctor shall ensure that the requirements of this procedure
are communicated throughout the organization through education (toolbox talks)
and will liase with medical department in identifying and trends and concerns with
regard to cases of heat stress.
Medical personnel shall ensure the sufficient quantities of electrolyte and other
forms of treatment are available in the medical center for the handing of any
patients suffering from any heat related illness.
K-2
Project Management and supervision are responsible for ensuring that personnel
under their control are educated in recognizing and understanding the symptoms
and treatment for the various forms of heat stress.
6.0
PROCEDURE
There are several health hazards associated with excessive exposure to heat and sun.
Recognize the effects of the following heat exposures:
Heat Cramps
This is a result of the loss of salt in the working muscles, usually a part of heat
exhaustion.
Acclimatize yourself during hot weather and consume lots of water, juice, or a sport
drink before work. Other drinks like Coke, Tea and Coffee contain caffeine, which
if consumed in excess amounts, also accelerates fluid loss in the urine.
Heat Exhaustion
This is caused by the excessive loss of body fluids from sweating. The individual
sweat which causes dehydration and the symptoms are dizziness, become nauseated
or very tiered. Rest and plenty of water usually produce quick recovery to this
common heat ailment.
Heat Stroke
This is the most serious hot weather health problem. The individuals tolerance to
heat stops. The individual has hot, dry skin with a high core temperature, chills, and
mental confusion. If the individual is not cooled off quickly, the result can be brain
damage or even death. The individual with a medical history of heat stroke is more
likely to have a recurrence under the same conditions.
Ensure workers are acclimatized to the heat.
Provide shelters where workers can find shade and protection from direct sunrays.
Provide periodic water breaks where workers can drink before, during and after
work.
Establish a work regimen where workers can be rotated, allowing short rest periods
to prevent harmful effects due to Heat.
Categorize the work load as the type of work being performed.
Light supervising,
Medium regular work
Heavy digging, concrete work welding and grinding
Provide water access in strategic points that are accessible to the worker.
Establish access points to water for workers that are working at heights.
Supervisors must monitor their work force by looking for signs of dehydration,
especially in older persons or workers that have health problems.
If possible, regulate work hours where exposure to high heat will not be during
peak heat hours.
K-3
Preventative measures:
Employees shall have access to cool potable water at their place of work Water
coolers shall be provided for all crews.
Shaded areas shall be provided for rest periods and instructions given to workers
that resting adjacent to, or under plant and equipment is strictly prohibited.
First Aid equipment provided on site shall include treatment for dehydration e.g.
electrolytes.
General
All of the above conditions must be reported to the medical center and treated as
soon as possible. Medical staff or first aiders will send regular communiqus on the
subject of heat stress and inform management of any concerns. The contents of this
procedure will be communicated and emphasized to site supervision during training
sessions and at the contractors regular HSE meetings.

Guidelines for the Control of Heat Stress

Heat stress is defined as a medical condition ranging in severity from mild to fatal as a consequence
of working at elevated temperatures where the normal body temperature has increased to a level
requiring action.
Supervisors at any management level are responsible for ensuring that their workforce are not
subjected to heat stress by:
The provision of adequate supplies of drinking water. Ensuring that all personnel, including those of
subcontractors under their control, are not working in conditions that are likely to lead to the incidence
of heat stress. Monitoring their workforce during periods of high temperature, and at other
times such as Ramadan, for signs of heat stress and taking immediate action when necessary.
Heat stress is usually the result of work being performed at elevated temperatures. Contributory
factors may also include a decrease of natural body ventilation by heavy clothing or protective
personal equipment such as impervious suits.
If the body's physiological processes fail to maintain a normal body temperature because of
excessive heat, a number of physical reactions can occur ranging in degree from mild, such
as fatigue, irritability, anxiety and decreased concentration, dexterity, or movement, to fatal.
Heat stress is one of the most common and potentially serious illnesses that construction
workers encounter in areas where high temperatures normally occur and regular monitoring and
other preventative measures are vital.
All of the conditions described below must be reported to the clinic and treated as soon as possible.
Medical staff are to send regular communiqus on the subject of heat stress and inform
management of any concerns.
Supervisors are to ensure that their workforce is fully aware of the causes and symptoms of
heat stress and the measures that can be taken to prevent or reduce the effects.
Preventative Measures
Employees must have access to cool potable water at their place of work. Water and paper cups
are to be provided for all crews.
Shaded areas are to be provided for rest periods and instructions given to workers that
resting adjacent to or under plant and equipment is strictly prohibited. Fans may be required
to increase ventilation in such areas.
Heat Stroke
Heat stroke is an acute and dangerous reaction to heat stress caused by a failure of the heat
regulating mechanisms of the body, e.g. A breakdown of the employees temperature control
L-7
system that causes sweating. Body temperature rises so high that brain damage and death will
result if the person is not cooled quickly.
Typical symptoms are red, hot, dry skin, although the person may have been sweating earlier;
nausea; dizziness; confusion; extremely high blood pressure, rapid respiratory and pulse rate;
unconsciousness or in a coma.
The casualty must be cooled down and medical attention sought immediately, with the patient
transported to the clinic for treatment.
Heat Exhaustion
Heat exhaustion is a state of very definite weakness or exhaustion caused by the loss of
fluids from the body. This condition is much less dangerous than heat stroke, but must be
treated early on to prevent eventual deterioration to heat stroke.
Typical symptoms are pale, clammy, moist skin, profuse perspiration, and extreme weakness. Body
temperature is normal, pulse is weak and rapid, and breathing is shallow. The person may have
a headache, may vomit, and may be dizzy.
Remove the casualty from the heat, provide plenty of fluids to drink and allow rest.
Heat Cramps
Heat cramps are caused by perspiration that is not balanced by adequate fluid intake. Heat cramps
are often the first sign of a condition that can lead to heat stroke.
Typical symptoms are acute painful spasms of voluntary muscles; e.g. abdomen and extremities.
The casualty should drink plenty of water if the problem is too much salt due to sweat not
being replaced by drinking water. If the problem is a lack of salt (this is usually the case
when the person has been working for a long time in a heavy protective suit) a commercially
available carbohydrate-electrolyte replacement liquid should be given.
Heat Rash
Heat rash is caused by continuous exposure to heat and humid air and aggravated by chafing
clothes. The condition decreases the ability to tolerate heat.
Typical symptoms are a mild red rash, especially in areas of the body in contact with protective
clothing. Expose the affected skin to allow cooling and drying.
