Life Saving Rules

The 12 Life Saving Rules were selected by PDO to represent activities with the highest likelihood of death or serious injury. The rules apply to all PDO operations and are designed to set clear dos and don'ts for high-risk safety activities. Over the coming months, all PDO employees and contractors will be briefed on the Life Saving Rules. From July 1, 2009, failure to comply with the rules will be thoroughly investigated and could result in termination of employment or removal from the work site.

LIFE SAVING RULES

Introduction

PDO’s 12 Life Saving Rules are the next step in our Goal Zero Journey. These rules have been selected
because they represent those activities where non-compliance has the highest likelihood to result in
death or serious injury, the Life Saving Rules apply to everyone and all operations under PDO’s
operational control.

Most people comply with them every day – but there are still breaches taking place.

The Life Saving Rules set out clear and simple “dos” and “don’ts” covering activities with the highest
potential safety risk. They help to make sure that rules are followed and people are protected. We are
determined to save lives.

In the coming months, everyone – employees and the contractor community – will be briefed on the
Life Saving Rules at team and site meetings.

The Rules will be fully enforced from July 1, 2009.

Aim

That everyone in the organization (PDO and Contractors) understands and abides by the Life Saving
Rules.

Consequences

There are serious consequences associated with breaking a Life Saving Rule.

 Reported non-compliance with one of these Rules will be thoroughly investigated.


 If a rule-breaker is aware of the Life Saving Rule or required procedure through training,
experience or communication, and did not comply, the maximum appropriate disciplinary action
will be applied: up to and including termination of employment for PDO employees; or removal
from site and disqualification from future PDO work for employees of contractors or sub-
contractors.
 If a supervisor sets the conditions for rule-breaking, or fails to follow through if one is broken,
maximum appropriate disciplinary action will apply.
