1. Risk Register

The Select Plant Hire Risk Management process follows the same risk management process as detailed in the Laing O’Rourke Safety Management System. Refer to System Requirement 01 Risk Assessment and SiD for further details.

The identification of risks must take place at initialisation (project or operational start-up) and during the course of business.

During initialisation, the individual risks to be managed by the operation should be highlighted by identifying what can happen, when, where, how, why and to who. The aim is to generate a comprehensive list of fatigue-related risks which will be added to the Risk Register .

During the course of the operation or project, it should be identified whether:

• implemented control measures result in new risks

• reported hazards, near-misses or incidents highlight new risks

• new activities, processes, equipment etc. result in new risks

Consulting people on health, safety, Heavy Vehicle legislation and environmental issues is important in creating and maintaining a safe and healthy working environment. Employees are consulted about changes to the workplace, WH&S, Heavy Vehicle legislation & Environmental issues through induction notes, transport meetings, toolbox talks, e-mail, newsletters and details on noticeboards.

6. CAPEX and Disposal

All heavy vehicle procurement must follow the E-P-8-0533 Fixed Assets Purchase Transfer and Disposal procedure.

The following flow charts provide an overview of the CAPEX and disposal process:

• E-P-8-0533c CAPEX Process Flow Chart.pdf

• E-P-8-0533b Disposal Process Flow Chart.pdf

When requesting quotes for CAPEX it is mandatory to specify the Standards and Regulations to which the vehicle must be supplied. In the CAPEX quote the supplier must state that the vehicle will comply with the requested Standards and Regulations.

In order to capture all of the vehicle accessories within the initial CAPEX purchase, all additional requirements for the vehicle must be requested as part of the CAPEX quote. This includes items such as GPS units, fatigue management devices and IVMS systems.

8. Transport Service Providers

From time-to-time Select may need to engage a third party transport service provider to fulfil transport orders. When this occurs, the Transport Supervisor is responsible for ensuring that the supplier is chosen only from the Laing O’Rourke Approved Logistics Panel, which can be found on the Procurement iGate page.

No transport services are to be engaged without first providing the supplier with a committed purchase order for the full value of the works.

9. Training

Training requirements for the operation should be assessed and carried out according to System Requirement 11 Training and Induction.

For specific training requirements for workers that are part of the Chain of Responsibility, refer to E-G-8-0542f CoR Training Guide

10. Speed and Fatigue

The purpose of speed and fatigue management is to identify and assess potential speed and fatigue related risks before they occur so that risk treatment measures can be implemented which either eliminate the risk entirely (where practicable), or reduce the likelihood that the risk will occur or reduce the potential adverse consequences of the risk. The effective management of speed and fatigue risks can be identified and addressed in the following roles:

• Scheduling:

• implement rosters and schedules that meet all legal work and rest hour requirements

• use predictable rosters (where possible) that limit the number of night shifts and provide appropriate rest breaks during and between shifts

• restrict shift work, especially night shifts, to essential tasks and projects

• assess new rosters or alterations to existing rosters to identify any fatigue-related risks prior to implementation

• reduce the need for workers to be on-call

• consider the impact of work-related phone calls that disrupt a worker’s sleep while not at work

• assess new rosters or schedules and alterations to existing rosters and schedules to identify any speed-related risks prior to implementation

• ensure delayed drivers can contact schedulers to re-schedule timeslots and/or notify of updated availability

• Monitoring and supervision:

• provide suitable supervision during shift work (especially high-risk tasks)

• monitor workers for signs of fatigue

• monitor rosters, schedules, trip plans and driver work diaries for speed-related risks or non-conformance

• monitor the speed of vehicles to verify speed compliance

• install speed limiters in vehicles to limit their maximum speed

• regularly verify that speed limiters comply with the vehicle standards

• Contingency plans:

• Ensure that fatigued workers are able to stop work and report to their supervisor (without penalty) rather than continuing working and risking a fatigue-related incident

• Information and training on:

• roles, responsibilities and requirements of the Fatigue Risk Management Framework

• legal work and rest hour requirements and other requirements under the legislation

• identifying the signs of fatigue in yourself and others

• managing work and non-work related fatigue

• provide a confidential Employee Assistance Program (EAP) through an external service provider that is available to all workers and their families

• provide treatment and/or support for workers who experience fatigue-related issues

11. Fitness for Work

Prior to carrying out any journeys drivers must report to the Transport Supervisor (at the depot) or the project site supervisor. When travelling remotely or picking up or delivery to a third party; every effort must be made by the driver to communicate their progress. Prior to departing from the depot or LORAC projects the Driver is required to carry out alcohol testing.

Drivers will be required to conduct an annual commercial driver medical examination. The record of the driver’s annual medical must be logged in e-Induct where an annual reminder will be flagged.

Drug testing will be carried out according to the Select Depot requirements for the depot that the drivers are based from. If the driver is not present at the depot on the day of testing, alternative testing can be arranged to ensure that the company’s minimum requirements for drug testing are achieved.

For further guidance on Laing O’Rourke’s Alcohol and Drug rules, refer to Primary Standard 30 ALCOHOL AND OTHER DRUGS

12. Route and Journey Management

Journey Management Plans

All journeys greater than 100km radius must be risk assessed through the use of the E-T-8-0960 Journey Management Plan (JMP) and signed off by authorised persons in line with Primary Standard 35 Journey Management

Before departing for regional and remote project sites, the Transport Supervisor must check with the project management to determine whether there are any project or client specific rules in relation to journey management. This may include the requirement for JMP’s to be signed and approved by the project, or requirements for particular routes to be mapped and approved.

In the event of delays to a journey the driver must at the earliest opportunity inform the Journey Management Coordinator of the delay and the revised latest time of arrival. If the Journey Management Coordinator will be off duty an alternative contact is to be agreed e.g. security officer, depot manager.

Route Planning

If the Transport Supervisor or person planning the route is unfamiliar with approved heavy vehicle transport routes, the following tools can be used:

• NHVR Journey Planner

• HEMA Australia Truckies Atlas (or similar publication)

• The relevant state road authority websites

If the chosen route is considered to be remote, or if the route is unfamiliar to the driver; a map of the route should be printed and handed to the driver with their JMP.

Over-dimensional Loads

For over-dimensional loads, the Supervisor or person coordinating the route must always refer to the over-dimensional guidelines applicable for each state. If the load is over-dimensional, an Application for an Access Permit must be submitted via NHVR.

Night Driving

There are increased risks while driving at night, therefore driving after 8pm should be avoided where necessary.

Overnight Stays

Sleeping in approved sleeper berths must not exceed five nights continuous stay. In the event of delays in travel or loading the transport supervisor and project logistics are to be informed at the earliest opportunity to allow for suitable planning for fixed accommodation. Where possible; fixed accommodation should be scheduled into the route at the transport supervisor’s discretion.

Accommodation is to be booked according to the requirements listed out on the Central Travel Desk iGate Page and using the Pre-trip Approval Form.

Where urgent accommodation is required and the normal travel booking process cannot be followed in the given timeframe, the Select Transport Manager can give authorisation for the Transport Supervisor to contact Corporate Travel Management (CTM) directly on their after-hours phone number; 1800 663 622.

Workplace Traffic management Plan (TMP)

Prior to undertaking a journey to any project site, a workplace specific TMP must be made available to the Transport Supervisor for consideration when developing the Select JMP. This TMP will also be provided with the JMP to the driver.

γ The following document/s must be utilised in support of this section:

13. In Vehicle Monitoring System (IVMS)

All Laing O’Rourke Light Commercial Vehicles & Heavy Commercial Vehicles have been fitted with IVMS. This is a safety feature which has the ability to provide up to date location information, trip data, driver identification, speed and odometer readings.

The software has been customised to suite Laing O’Rourke’s requirements and currently reports/ monitors the following:

• Roll Over

• Speed

• Fatigue – greater than 2 hours continuous driving

• Harsh Acceleration, Braking

• Excessive revving and idle

• Seatbelt Conformance

Upon employment an IVMS key fob will be issued to drivers. All faults/issues identified with the IVMS system must be reported to management. Driver behaviours must be monitored by the transport supervisor on a weekly basis by running the IVMS report. Any breaches must be investigated using the Driver Breach Investigation Form and closed out within five working days. Refer to the IVMS Disciplinary Guidance for more information.

Refer back to section 4. Inductions for further information on the requirements for new drivers.

For further guidance on IVMS, refer to:

• E-P-8-0579 Fleet Driver Resp and Requirements.pdf

14. Load Management

The safe loading of vehicles is vitally important in preventing injury to people and damage to property. All persons working within the chain of responsibility must ensure they follow the Load Restraint Guide 2004 and LUEZ guidelines to ensure the safe carriage of loads on road vehicles. The effective management of loads can be achieved in the following areas:

• Mass and dimension:

o use consignment notes that require the consignor to complete full mass and dimension details

o implement vehicle, vehicle load and over-mass registers

o implement load plans or other load placement guidance

o provide training on calculating appropriate legal load mass and dimension

o implement regular inspections and weighing of loaded vehicles to ensure compliance with legal mass and dimension requirements

• Load restraint:

o ensure sufficient and appropriate load restraint equipment is provided in line with the Load Restraint Guide

o provide training on safe load restraint methods and equipment

o implement load inspection checklists for drivers to use before departing

o perform regular inspections of the condition of load restraint equipment

• Loading and unloading behaviours:

o implement daily vehicle and equipment inspection checklists to be completed at the start of each shift

o provide training on the safe and appropriate use of loading equipment

o ensure loading and unloading procedures include the concepts contained in the LUEZ Guidelines

o provide training on the loading requirements for dangerous goods

o monitor loading and unloading behaviour by supervisors

o streamline parking, queuing and loading/unloading practices to minimise delays

Load Mass

The Select Loading and Restraint Guide includes a list of the common plant and equipment that Select transports. This list references the appropriate transport mode for those items. For items of greater mass that fall outside of the common list, the following process should be followed:

• Consigner provides a diagram and weights of the plant or materials to be moved.

• Transport Supervisor or the person coordinating the transport booking considers the mass of the load and selects an appropriate transport mode.

• E-T-8-0542m Load Plan Template is completed for the load.

• Load information is issued to the driver with the JMP.

15. Working at Heights (WAH)

As far is reasonably practicable, working at heights should be reduced by carrying out tasks at ground level and eliminated through the hierarchy of control. If tasks are required to be undertaken the Driver must ensure three points of contact is maintained and workplaces loading and unloading platforms are used. Drivers are prohibited from accessing or walking on the deck of the trailers or truck without suitable fall protection or loading platforms.

For further guidance refer to Primary Standard 1 - Working at Heights

16. Backloads and Other Opportunities

In the event that drivers are requested to undertake duties outside the rostered and planned scope of works the driver must inform the transport supervisor immediately to seek approval. The Transport Supervisor will review upcoming trip requirements and provide the driver with an amended schedule as long as the additional works comply with the Select requirements for load, speed and fatigue management.

17. Incident Response

In the event of an incident:

• Stop immediately where it is safe to do so. By law a driver involved in an accident where a person or property is damaged must stop immediately. Property can include gardens, fences, houses and other vehicles.

• Ensure that you and others in your vehicle are in a safe place. If safe to do so get out of the vehicle and move away from the vehicle towards the direction of travel and well away from any traffic.

• In an emergency, phone 000 (or 112 from a mobile phone) for police, ambulance and fire services.

• The police should be contacted if one or more of the following occurs:

o Death or injury (requiring medical attention from a qualified ambulance officer, nurse or doctor), or

o A driver fails or has failed or is refusing to provide required details,

o Vehicle not driveable - A vehicle involved in the crash is towed or carried away by another vehicle

• For non-emergencies the police can be contacted on the Police Assistance line on 131 444

• Anyone involved in an accident must wait for the police to arrive.

• When it is safe and appropriate to do so, take photographs of the vehicle/s position and damage

• Incidents should be reported to your manager as soon as it is safe to do so

• If asked by the Police to make a statement, send a copy of your statement to your manager and the Fleet Department and keep a copy for your own records

• On return to depot record all details of the incident on a QBE Claim Form. This must occur even if it is suspected that there will not be an insurance claim.

Incident Management

All accidents and incidents must be investigated by the Transport Manager or their representative. The notification of an incident must be entered onto Impact or on form E-T-8-0951a HSE Internal Incident Notification

if no network access is available. This is to take place within 24 hours of an incident occurring. Investigation of accidents and incidents shall be conducted as per the guidelines for SR 12 INCIDENT INVESTIGATION on iGATE.

Any incident that occurs on the road – no matter how insignificant – must be reported immediately by telephone to the Transport Supervisor. This includes – but is not limited to – traffic accidents, near misses, mechanical or tyre related issues, or fatigue symptoms.

Penalties and infringements

All penalties and infringements must be reported to the Transport Manager immediately. Heavy Vehicle National Law – 2015 Court imposed and Infringement Penalties (PDF, 988 KB) provides a summary of the penalties and infringements outlined in the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL).

The HVNL contains three different types of penalties:

• Infringeable offences

• Court imposed penalties

• Demerit points

Infringeable offences

An infringeable offence is one which results in the issue of an infringement notice. The infringement notice sets out the details of an alleged offence, usually a strict liability offence. It gives the person issued the notice the option of either paying the penalty set out in the notice or electing to have the matter dealt with by a court.

Court imposed penalties

Some offences, generally the more serious ones, are not infringeable and must be dealt with by a court. The HVNL sets out the maximum penalty level that the court may apply.

Demerit points

Demerit points attach to a driver’s license. As a general rule, demerit points are managed through each state and territories’ road traffic law.

Environmental Impact

The impact of environmental incidents is reduced with preventative measures carried out e.g. maintenance, regular visual inspections. All Select Truck will carry a vehicle spill kit. All environmental incidents are to be reported to the workplace at the earliest opportunity. A copy of any Environmental reports is to be sent to the Transport manager to allow action to be taken and to be uploaded onto Impact.

Lone working

As a heavy vehicle transport driver, there are several instances when the driver may be considered to be ‘working alone’. These include the following:

|Lone working situation |Risk |Control |

|Assembling road trains / hooking trailer |Pinch points |Follow the E-G-8-0542g Heavy Vehicle Trailer |

| |Back injury |Coupling Guidance and always ensure a copy of this |

| |Trailer dropping |is in the cab of the truck. |

| |Tipping due to unstable ground | |

| |Being struck by other vehicles / traffic | |

|Dropping vehicles off at depots off after hours |Loading and unloading risks |Drivers are permitted to drop trucks off at the |

| | |depots after hours, but are not permitted to |

| | |undertake any loading or unloading activities. |

Service & Maintenance

Pre-Start Checklists

Prior to use each day / shift all plant and equipment operators are responsible to undertake a pre-start inspection. This requirement applies to all Heavy Vehicles and Trailers. The Transport Supervisor must return these pre-starts on a weekly basis to Central Planning.

Any safety critical defects noted on a pre-start checklist must be immediately reported by the driver to Transport Supervisor by telephone. The Transport Supervisor will advise the driver to both implement a corrective action and continue with the operation of the truck or trailer, or seek immediate repairs.

Maintenance

E-P-8-0500d Select Workshop Maintenance Process must be followed for all planned and unplanned maintenance, which includes scheduled servicing. The MEX computerised maintenance management system is used to capture the maintenance data, and the COINS system is used to capture financial data associated with the maintenance work.

Plant Risk Assessments

A plant risk assessment must be available for each vehicle, float or item of plant. This includes prime movers, floats, tilt trays, Hiab-type cranes etc. Risk assessments can be sourced from the OEM or agent; developed using the Laing O’Rourke plant risk assessment template; or produced using the online Plant Assessor system.

Fuel

All refuelling must be undertaken at designated and licence fuel stations using the company fuel card. Fuel cards should be requested from the Select Fleet department, and set up with appropriate purchase transaction levels.
