Ensure the hot work design area cover with fire blanket have fire extinguisher and provide fire
watcher
Ensure proper ventilation to prevent fumes buildup,
Inspect the equipment regularly and functional
Q NO9 Difference between MSDS And SDS
MSDS: (Material safety data sheet) this was the old format primarily use in united state, it contained
important safety information but less standardize have 16 to 17 pages, depend on the manufacture
SDS:(Safety Data Sheet) this is updating version, introduce globally under the global harmonized
system of classification of libeling, of chemicals, (GHS) SDS have a standarezid 16 section format
that provide more details information chemical including physical properties, health hazard, safe
handling practice and emergency response procedure
QNO10: Difference between JHA And JSA
JSA: (job Safety Analysis) JSA involves breaking down a job into its individual hazard for each
task.
JHA (Job Hazard Analysis) JHA on the other hand, involves analyzing past incident and near miss
to identify hazard
DNO 11: What is MMSR: (Maximum surveillance requirements)
Is the high level of medical monitoring for worker expose such as,
CHEMICAL HAZARD
Radiation
Biological agents
Physical agents
PORPUOSE OD MMSR
Identify potential health effects
Defect early sign of exposure related health issues
Prevent occupational illness
QNO 12: HEAT STRESS: The incident which caused by high temperature through the worker body do not
release inter temperature and it may cause consciences
TYPES OF HEAT STRESS
1) heat stroke: emergency situation in this situation the body didn’t maintain body temperature
and may cause unconsciousness and uncertainty,
2) heat trash
3)heat trumps
QNO13: flag system: the Aramco indicate the heat stress through on flag system,
Use four flags
Green: 24 to 29
Yellow: 30 to 39
Orange: 40 to 49
Red: 50 and above
QNO14: EXCAVATION PROTECTION SYSTEM
WE FOLLOW GENRAL FOUR METHED
1) SLOPING 2 BENCHING 3) SHORING 4) SHIELDING
1) Sloping: simply we can say that we slop the cutting area through the machine
2) benching: in this case we make the excavation edges have multiple level like stair
3) shoring) in this case we protect the side of the excavation through the wood or metals
4) shielding: we protect the excavation edges from the falling through the shield
Q No 15: TYPES OF SOIL.
Have three types of soil (1) Type A 2) Types B 3) type C
TYPES A: compact soil compressive strength = 1.5tons/sq. ft
Maintain= 53 angle degree slop
Precution= minor benching
TYPE B) Less stable than soil A with compressive strength = 0. 5tons/sq. ft
Maintain= 45 angle degree slop
Precution=benching or sloping or both
TYPE C: Unstable soil with less compressive strength with = 0. 5tons/sq. ft
Maintain= 34 angle degree slop
Precution=combination of sloping benching shoring and shielding
STABLE ROOCK: Maintain 90 angle degree slop

This is one-page documents if anybody see any unsafe activity at the work site have authority to
stop the activity immediately and write the stop card then submit to the HSE Officer
Q NO 18 DIFFRENCE BETWEEN INTERNAL AND ARAMCO PERMIT
1) Aramco permit: it is issue at that place where there is live line or any Aramco property within
23M close to your work place.
2) internal permit: internal permit is issue for that place where no live line or other close
property within 23m closed to work place
Q NO 18 What is grounding and bounding
1) GROUNDING: Ground means reduce shock hazard and prevent equipment damage
2) Bounding: bounding means to connect to metals part to ensure they are at the same electrical
minimized the rash of electric shock.
