Health and Safety Golden Rules

To help safeguard our employees, we are aligning with the global implementation of key safety rules called the Golden Rules. These have been established in response to the company’s review and experience regarding past safety incidents, which reveal that most serious injuries result from failure to follow a number of common rules. Therefore, ArcelorMittal developed a global set of Golden Rules which, if followed, will propel us forward on our Journey to Zero. This booklet describes more about the USA rollout of this effort.

Within the U.S., these rules must be followed in all situations. An employee – salaried or hourly – who violates a Golden Rule may be disciplined up to, and including, suspension and dismissal. We will ensure that all employees understand the rules and the consequences for failure to follow them.

ensure they understand and comply with the Golden Rules of

Safety at all times while working for

ArcelorMittal.6/18/2012 (VB)

Conducted jointly with an

ArcelorMittal Representative

and the Contractors.

6/18/2012 (VB)

Contractors Management: Works PreparationTo be done by the ArcelorMittal site:

1. Identify and explain the risks coming from its activities contractors can be exposed to, the location of facilities, traffic plan…

2. Give the information to the concerned contractors/ sub-contractors. 3. Explain the adapted control measures (including the rules for emergency response).

4. Communicate the safety rules to each concerned contractor and require compliance. Each contractor involved in the works should have been trained to this information during induction

before being authorized to enter on site.

To be done by the contractors (and their subcontractors the same):

5. Identify and explain the risks coming from the tasks to be performed in the AM site its employees can be exposed to.

6. Give the information to the AM site + to its employees and other contractors/sub-contractors’ employees involved in the works.

7. Explain the adapted control measures. 8. Communicate the safety rules + the SOP to the AM site + to its employees involved in the works.

The pre-job conference:

All this information must be reviewed during the pre-job conference. All the contractors/ subcontractors involved in the works must attend the pre-job conference. If one or several contractors have to work in the same time in the same or close location, the AM site and all the contractors/ sub-contractors

together have to:

Exchange on their works to identify the risks coming from possible interferences between their activities.

Define the adapted control measures and those responsible, dead lines.

The works must be then conducted in compliance with the safety rules defined during the described process and audited by the ArcelorMittal site (see audit form).

6/18/2012 (VB)

6/18/2012 (VB)

Contractors Management: Works Preparation (cont.)

Have all the contractors’ workers involved in the works attended the site/department safety induction? Did they all get their on site access authorization?

Do they know the rules to follow in case of emergency (emergency call numbers, nearest assembly point…)?

Did the contractor perform a documented risk assessment of the tasks to perform in the AM site and then wrote a safety action plan on the basis of the results of this risk assessment?

Are the required PPE clearly defined? Do all concerned contractors’ employees comply with the PPE rules?

Are the works performed in compliance with this safety action plan? Did all the contractors involved in the works attend the pre-job conference?

Is the pre-job conference documented and the necessary SOP available on shop location? Are the works performed in compliance with the pre-job conference minutes and the SOP?

If several contractors are busy working on the same or close locations on the same time, did they exchange on their works to identify the risks coming from possible interferences between their

activities? Have safety measures been taken to control the identified interfering risks?

Are the works performed incompliance with those control measures? If one of the performed activities requires a specific working authorization or driving license (mobile

crane, man lift operation, electrician…) do the concern employees provide the valid corresponding document?

Are the tools used adapted to the work to perform and in a good condition? If some hazardous products are stored or in use in the works location, is the use and/or the storage

secured and the concerned safety data sheets available? Are the simplified safety data sheets posted? Is the work area clean and tidy?

If an activity performed requires the deliverance of a specific permit to work by the ArcelorMittal site (work in a confined space, in a gas hazard area, on roofs, hot works….) has it been delivered?

Theme: Stop, Think, and Act Safely!• Contractor involvement is mandatory

– Temporary workers– Subcontractors

• Main Topics: Health– Occupational Diseases

• Ergonomics• Sight/Hearing• Respiratory Protection• Stress / Fatigue

– The focus is on Occupational Health.• Main Topics: Safety

– Stop– Think (linking to Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment (HIRA))– Leading by example– Avoid repetition of the same accidents


2013 Focus Health and Safety DayApril 25, 2013

• For OSHA recordable injury cases, Lost Time Injury cases, high potential, and property damaging incidents, a written investigation report including corrective actions must be prepared and a copy provided within 24 hours to the Burns Harbor Plant Health and Safety Department c/o Ron Whipple – Phone: (219) 787-3742– Fax: (219) 787-4256

• A copy shall also be sent to Richard Manns, Maintenance Administration– Phone: (219) 787-2876– Fax: (219) 787- 4390

• Subcontractors shall provide a written investigation report to their Primary Contractor who shall in turn forward the report to the Health and Safety Department and Maintenance Administration.


2013 FocusInjury Reporting/ Lost Time Injury Prevention

• Lost Time Injury– A work-related injury that results in the loss of at least one full working day (beyond the

date of injury) will be counted as a global LTI. – A global Adapted Injury Case (or Restricted) is an injury where an employee can return to

work from the incident but cannot perform the normal job for some period of time.

• What must we do to prevent LTIs? – Identify the hazards that cause them – Correct the hazards that cause them– Do not place yourself at-risk and do not – Do NOT allow others to place themselves at-risk, stop the work and make it safe!





• According to the U.S. Department of Labor, slips, trips and falls are the most common occupational accident.– The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that 253,440 employees suffered injuries falling in the

work environment in 2007. Of these:68% suffered injuries falling at the same level– 32% suffered injuries falling to a lower level

• Over 17% of disabling work injuries were caused by falls.

• 15% of accidental deaths* are caused by falls, second only to motor vehicle accidents

• Many incidents could have been prevented by general housekeeping precautions



• Safe Walking– Use handrails while ascending and descending stairs, take your time and don’t skip steps– Pay attention to your surroundings, look where you are going and pay attention to slip and trip

hazards– Walk, don’t run – take your time– Don’t read, write or work while walking, This pertains to cell phones as well!– Bring a flashlight with you if you are going into a dim area– Before you lift anything, check to make sure your path is clear and your view is not obstructed– Utilize carts – Don’t carry anything that you cannot see over or around– Carry small loads close to your body– Walk cautiously when you transition from one walking surface to another– Slow down and take small steps when a surface is cluttered, uneven or at an angle– Be smart about your choice of footwear; select non-slip shoes



• Housekeeping– Keep floors free of mud, water, grease and debris– Clean up spills immediately– Block off wet / slippery areas and continue to use caution signs while the floor is drying– Follow a preventative cleaning schedule before spills become unmanageable.– Repair or replace any damaged flooring as necessary

The SolutionConcept is to cover space and time

Have Green Guardians……. ……….present all the time to reduce hazards during

contractors work for demolition, new construction installations, major relines, major shutdown / outage activities.

:Space : depending on the layout and size of the site where the work is done, the number of people has to be chosen in such a way that the full area can be properly covered

Time : assure that person (s) is in place as soon as and as long as contractors are on the job

11/04/2023 68 68

Knowledgeable people who are:• Employee(s) of ArcelorMittal (preferred)• Dedicated to the assignment• Temporarily assigned with defined safety related

responsibilities • Who have a good understanding of:

– Fatality Prevention Standards– Permit requirements– Task HIRA– Hot work requirements– Contractor Safety, Health and Environmental

Handbook– Any other similar safety knowledge they will need

to equip them to do their work effectively

Green Guardians

11/04/2023 69 69

Green GuardiansWhy ?• To empower employee(s) at all levels with the required

knowledge and authority to:o Speak-up when it comes to safetyo Provide information, advice and guidance to

contractors

where neededo Act immediately in case of at-risk situations

• To establish safety ownership at all levels and remove the perception that safety is someone else's responsibility

• To increase safety awareness among employees and contractors and display the urgency towards achieving ZERO injuries / incidents

• To increase the monitoring of contractor jobs and not direct their work

11/04/2023 70 70

Green GuardiansHow ?

• Visibility On the floorWearing a High Visibility hard hat

• MandateTo stop a job if it appears to be unsafe Will act on the belief that an at-risk situation exists and

corrects it without fear of discipline to the Green Guardian

• MentoringPerson (s) should be identified to assist Green Guardian

if situation of uncertainty arises on shop floor

11/04/2023 71 71

Green GuardiansWhen?

• During demolition and new construction installations. (new installations of tiered work, multiple crafts and coordination concern)

• During major reline activities• During major or non-routine shutdown

/ outage activities.

Example: Tank replacement job on CAPL furnace was a green guardian job, but a typical downturn would not be a green guardian job.

The level of risk would always be the determining factor for implementing the Green Guardians concept
