Contractors are responsible for protecting the safety and health of workers. This includes providing proper training, maintaining safe equipment, conducting hazard assessments, ensuring compliance with relevant laws, and fostering HSE awareness among all personnel. They are also tasked with reporting and investigating incidents, and complying with accident reporting formats .

Contractors must comply with all applicable Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) laws and regulations, including those related to fire and security, concerning the location of work. Additionally, the contractor must indemnify OPU against legal costs, fines, and claims incurred due to non-compliance. This includes taking all necessary HSE precautions to protect personnel, the work environment, and the public from hazards associated with work activities .

Safe excavation work entails obtaining a Permit to Work (PTW), preparing a detailed work plan, and considering soil types and weather conditions. Walkways must be clear, and inspections should be conducted daily by a competent person. Excavations over 1.5 meters require shoring, those over 2 meters need confined space permits, and mechanical excavation must not occur within one meter of any existing service lines. Standby personnel equipped with safety gear must always be present .

A Project HSE Plan must include OPU safety policy and requirements, prevailing laws and regulations, contractor's HSE policy, and the organizational structure for HSE management. It should outline the responsibilities of key personnel, a hazard review including control measures, reporting procedures for accidents/incidents, and an emergency response plan. The plan must be submitted for OPU's review one week before mobilization .

Contractors should use safe transport means complying with the Malaysian Road Traffic Ordinance of 1958, prohibiting personnel travel in open trucks unless certified with seats. They must maintain safe access and egress, set speed limits, and ensure road signs are clearly posted on the worksite. Safe driving practices, including seat belt use and vehicle maintenance, must be enforced among employees and subcontractors .

An SHO is responsible for guiding and advising on Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) requirements at worksites. They perform ongoing monitoring and formal site inspections to identify hazardous conditions, and they provide OPU with inspection records. The SHO should not have part-time assignments beyond HSE duties and must be qualified, with their credentials approved by OPU before work begins .

Effective housekeeping ensures safe access and egress, clear emergency exits, and unobstructed fire and safety equipment. It prevents accidents by removing tripping hazards, properly storing materials, and ensuring access to exits. Oily or chemical-soaked rags must be properly disposed of. Maintaining good housekeeping practices is crucial to minimize risks associated with slips, trips, and falls, and it contributes to overall worker safety and productivity on construction sites .

Contractors must ensure compressed gas cylinders are stored, transported, or used in an upright position and secured with a chain or suitable means. Cylinder valves must be closed and hoses depressurized when not in use. Cylinders should have protective valve caps when transported, be kept away from general traffic paths, and flammable gases and oxygen cylinders must be separated by a non-combustible wall. They should also have a color code identifier and be hoisted only when secured in an approved cradle .

Materials in storage areas should be organized to prevent vehicle traffic interference. Storage floors must be capable of supporting loads, with maximum safe load limits posted. Buildings should provide adequate lighting, ventilation, and fire-resistant construction appropriate to stored materials. Flammable liquids must be stored separately with clear labeling and 'No Smoking' signs. Fire extinguishers and hard hats are required in storage areas .

Contractors must immediately report all incidents, including near misses, to OPU using the specified format. They are responsible for alerting relevant authorities such as the fire brigade and police as necessary. Contractors must investigate incidents capable of causing serious injury or property damage, maintain accurate records, and comply with OPU's information requests.
