Pre-Job Safety and Health Meeting

Exhibit 2.6.1

DOE-HDBK-1101-96

2. Safety and Health Rating System

A subcontractor safety and health rating system should be developed to help in evaluating

the subcontractor's ability to safely perform the specified work.

Pre-Job Safety and Health Meeting

1. Discussion of Specific Safety and Health Requirements

GOCO facility management shall specifically discuss safety, unusual hazards, training,

documentation, and permit requirements with the subcontractor's site management

personnel, who will be directly responsible for supervising the contracted work.

2. Verifying Training Requirements

The DOE contractor management shall review subcontractor certifications for required

training based on criteria set forth in the Pre-bid section. Safety and health training for

subcontractor employees can be divided into three components.

Basic job skills training: the skills required to perform a specific task.

Basic job safety and health training: the skills necessary to safely perform the task no

matter where it may be performed.

Plant-specific safety and health training: the skills necessary to safely perform a task

at a specific plant site.

The first two components are the responsibility of the subcontractor and the third is the

responsibility of the DOE DOE contractor.

To fulfill the obligations of the first two training components, the subcontractor shall be

requested to define the training needed to satisfy these components, provide the training,

and certify that the training has occurred, enabling their respective workers to safely

perform their assigned duties. The subcontractor will not be able to start on the project

until these training requirements are met. Also, arrangements will be made with the

subcontractor to schedule the safety orientation that covers plant-specific safety and

health training.

Subcontractor Safety Orientation

Before work begins, all subcontractor personnel, including supervisors and managers,

shall receive the GOCO facility's safety and health orientation. Where this training is not

provided by the DOE contractor, management will ensure that it is conducted and covers

the same site-specific safety and health material that GOCO facility employees receive at

their new hire orientation. Training content and attendance must be documented.

On the Job Control

1. Review Subcontractor Safety Performance

The DOE contractor shall designate a representative (site contact) for each contract

issued to subcontractors performing work onsite. This site contact will have the authority

to enforce the provisions set forth in the contract. The site contact shall be required to

monitor and make regular inspections of the subcontractor's activities as follows.
