INTRODUCTION
At TTL, Inc. (TTL) the safety of our employees and the safe operation of our facilities are important.
In order to establish safe work practices and procedures, we have developed this Safety Policies
and Procedures handbook to be used as a tool to assist each of us in incorporating safety into our
daily operations. This will enable us to prevent injuries and illnesses, as well as damage to our
equipment and facilities. Our safety philosophy is built on trust, accountability, and the belief that
"ALL INJURIES CAN AND SHOULD BE PREVENTED." Each worker, from the newest employee
to the CEO, must take an active role in every phase of safety to ensure our programs success.
Collectively, we must strive to provide a safe workplace. Individually, we must learn and follow safe
practices to protect ourselves and our fellow employees.
Please learn and follow these standards as we continue our goal to "Finish each day injury and
incident free." This handbook serves as a guide and reference for minimum rules and standards
at TTL facilities and project sites. This handbook is not intended to be all inclusive, but should be
relied upon for guidance when applicable.
SAFETY GOAL
OUR GOAL: FINISH EACH DAY INJURY AND INCIDENT FREE.
1.0 WORKPLACE PRINCIPLES
1.1 General Principles
# All accidents are preventable.
# Strive to improve the safety of the workplace.
# Understand the task and how to accomplish it safely.
# No business objective is more important than the safety of people.
# Safe behaviors in the performance of your work are expected and appreciated.
# You are responsible for your safety as well as the safety of others.
# Safety standards apply equally to all personnel, whether contractors employees,
subcontractors, or subcontractors employees, or employees of TTL.
1.2 Unprofessional Behavior
Horseplay, practical jokes or any type of harassment will not be allowed on TTL premises or project
sites.
3.0 GENERAL
3.1 Illegal Drugs, Alcohol, Weapons and Searches
The use, possession, transportation, promotion or sale of illegal drugs,
controlled substances, drug paraphernalia, firearms or weapons on TTL project
sites and premises is absolutely prohibited. The illegal or unauthorized use of
drugs, firearms or weapons (including prescription drugs adversely affecting job
performance) shall result in removal from TTL project sites and premises. (See
Appendix F.)
The term TTL premises in these TTL Safety Policies and Procedures is used in its broadest sense
and includes all land, property, buildings, structures, installations, boats, cars, trucks, project sites,
and all other means of conveyance owned by or leased to TTL, or otherwise being utilized for the
business of TTL.
3.2 Adverse Weather Conditions
TTL expects workers to use good judgment when adverse weather conditions create a potentially
unsafe working environment.
3.3 Housekeeping
The job site shall be kept clean and orderly, free of clutter and trash, so work may proceed in a
safe and orderly manner. Tools shall be safely placed during use and promptly put away after
use. Fire-fighting and life-saving equipment shall be clearly identified and the path to such
equipment shall not be blocked.
3.4 Signs
Numerous safety signs relating to personnel safety are posted throughout TTLs facilities. All
personnel shall comply with these information-warning signs.
3.5 Smoking
Smoking is absolutely prohibited on TTL premises except in designated smoking areas.
When leaving a vehicle, make sure the vehicle is secure, i.e., the brake set, transmission in
park, doors closed, and engine off.
All TTL vehicles performing work within highway rights-of-way shall be equipped with the
appropriate yellow flashing light or strobe lights. Equipping the vehicles shall be the group
leaders responsibility. (See Appendix D for Vehicle Safety Plan.)
No more than 25 gallons of flammable or combustible liquids shall be stored in a room outside
of an approved storage cabinet. No more than 60 gallons of flammable or 120 gallons of
combustible liquids shall be stored in any one storage cabinet. No more than three storage
cabinets may be located in a single storage area.
Flammable liquids shall be kept in closed containers when not actually in use.
Conspicuous and legible signs prohibiting smoking shall be posted in service and refueling

# Long hair shall be confined.
# Repairs shall not be made on machinery while in operation.
# All equipment shall be shut down and locked out so it cannot be accidentally started while
under repair.
# Safety devices and guards shall be replaced before equipment is operated.
4.5 Excavation, Trenching and Shoring
All trenching and excavation shall be performed under the supervision of an OSHA designated
Competent Person according to the requirements of OSHA 29 CFR 1926.652. The Competent
Person does not necessarily have to be a TTL employee, but each excavation over 4 feet in depth
will require someone properly trained and certified be designated as the Competent Person.
Personnel entering a trench or excavation exceeding 4 feet (1.5 m) in depth may require a confined
space entry permit. Although this is considered a confined space, the trench may not be classified
as a Permit-Required Confined Space. If additional information on Permit-Required Confined
Space (PRCS) is needed refer to Section 4.1 of these Safety Policies and Procedures.
Definitions:
Benching: A method of protecting employees from cave-ins by excavating the sides of an
excavation to form one or a series of horizontal levels, or steps, usually with vertical or near-
vertical surfaces between levels.
Competent Person: One who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards, soil types
in the surroundings, or working conditions that are unsanitary, hazardous or dangerous to
employees, and who has authorization to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them.
Excavation: Any man-made hole, cavity, trench or depression in an earth surface formed by earth
removal.
Shoring/Trench Box: A structure such as a metal, hydraulic, mechanical or timber shoring system
that supports the sides of an excavation and which is designed to prevent cave-ins.
Sloping: A method of protecting employees from cave-ins by excavating to form sides of an
excavation that are inclined away from the excavation so as to prevent cave-ins. The angle of
incline required to prevent a cave-in varies with differences in such factors as the soil type,
environmental conditions of exposure and application of surface loads.
Soil Classification System: Denotes classification used by the National Bureau of Standards.
Classifications include:
Stable Rock: Natural solid mineral matter that can be excavated with vertical sides and remain
intact while exposed.
Type A Soil: A cohesive soil with an unconfined compressive strength of 1.5 tons/ft (tsf) (14.6
Mg/m2) or greater. Examples: clay, silty clay, sandy clay, clay loam, silty clay loam, sandy
clay loam, caliche and hardpan. (If a soil is fissured, subject to vibration, or previously
disturbed, it is considered Type B or C.)
Type B Soil: A less cohesive soil with an unconfined compressive strength greater than 0.5 tsf (4.9
Mg/m2) but less than 1.5 tsf (14.6 Mg/m2). Examples: angular gravel or crushed rock, silt,
silt loam, sandy loam, and dry rock that is not stable.
Type C Soil: The least cohesive soil with an unconfined compressive strength of 0.5 tsf (4.9 Mg/m2)
or less. Examples: gravel, sand, loamy sand, submerged soils or freely seeping soils, and
submerged rock that is not stable.
Procedure
# Each excavation must have someone designated as a Competent Person.
# No TTL personnel will be permitted to enter an excavation over 4 feet in depth without
authorization from the designated Competent Person.
# Before opening any excavations, complete appropriate permits, determine the location of
utility installations, such as sewer, telephone, fuel, power lines, water lines, pipelines or any
other underground installations. Utilize the "one-call" or appropriate notification system to
contact utility companies and other affected parties. Advise of proposed work prior to the
start of actual excavation. Municipalities or other appropriate agencies may require permits.
# Excavations involving entry require ladders, steps or ramps located so that no more than
25 feet (7.6 m) of lateral travel is required to exit the excavation.
# The walls of the excavation are to be protected from caving-in by one of the following:
Shoring
Sloping or benching (Note: Benching is only allowed on Types A and B soil.)
Trench boxes (shields)
Some other equivalent means approved by a registered professional engineer from
the state where the excavation is located.
Note: Sloping or benching for excavations greater than 20 feet (6 m) deep must be
designed by a Registered Professional Engineer.
# Excavated soil or other material or equipment that could pose a hazard by falling or
rolling into an excavation shall be stored and/or retained at least 2 ft (0.61m) from
the edge of the excavation. If excavations endanger the stability of adjacent
structures (building, walls, or other structures), support systems shall be provided.
# A Competent Person shall make daily inspections of excavations prior to the start
of the work shift. This person has authority/responsibility to modify shoring/trenching
or work methods as necessary to provide greater safety. If evidence of possible
cave-ins or slides (such as accumulating water or seepage) is apparent, all work in
the excavation shall cease until necessary precautions have been taken to
safeguard employees.
# Guardrails or barricades should be used to mark the limits of the work area. Anytime
a trench is left unattended in populated areas, use guardrails or barricades sufficient
in size to prevent unintentional entry.
# An employee shall not be directly underneath the operating equipment while it is
being lowered or raised in an excavation or trench when there is a potential for
operating equipment to come in contact with the worker.
# Employees exposed to public vehicular traffic must wear reflective/high visibility
warning vests.
All unattended trenches and excavations shall have barricades that are visible after dark.
4.6 Scaffolding Safety
Scaffolding shall be used when appropriate. Climbing or working from the handrail, mid-rail, or
brace members of the scaffolding is prohibited.
All scaffolding shall be erected according to OSHA scaffold requirements listed in 29 CFR 1910.28
and 1926.451.
4.7 Ladders and Stairways
A ladder shall always be used to reach objects or areas not readily accessible to the workers
reach. All ladders shall be inspected before use. Any damaged or unsafe ladders shall be reported
to the group leader, tagged and taken out of service.
When climbing ladders, the following precautions shall be observed:
# Stationary ladders over 20 feet shall be caged unless other fall protection is provided. A
means of continuous fall protection, such as a retractable lifeline, a cable-grabbing device,
or a double lanyard method of climbing shall be used.
# When climbing a portable ladder, the ladder shall be secured and on stable footing in order
to prevent the ladder from shifting. This may be accomplished by having someone hold the
ladder while the climber ties it off.
# When climbing a ladder, hands shall be free from encumbrances such as hand tools,
grease guns, etc.
# Ladders shall be inspected prior to use for cracks, damaged runs or runners. Any damaged
or unsafe ladders shall be tagged and taken out of service immediately.
# Only ladders that are not electrically conductive shall be used when there is potential to
contact electrical equipment or lines.
LADDER SAFETY
# Choose the right size for the job.
# Inspect for defects & damage.
# Tag or mark defective ladders.
# Remove defective ladders from service.
# Set open fully on level surface.
# Clear the area before climbing.
# Never stand atop the ladder.
4.8 Compressed Air Used for Cleaning
Compressed air used for drying or cleaning shall be limited to 30 psi by a pressure regulator or
pressure reducing nozzle per OSHA 29 CFR 1910.242. As a minimum, protective eye goggles,
gloves, and a dust filter shall be worn when cleaning in a dry, dusty application. Directing
compressed air toward you or another person for any reason is prohibited.
4.9 Compress Gas Cylinders
Valve protection caps shall be in place when compressed gas cylinders are transported, moved,
or stored.
Cylinder valves shall be closed when work is finished and when cylinders are empty or are moved.
Compressed gas cylinders shall be secured in an upright position at all times, except if necessary
for short periods of time when cylinders are actually being hoisted or carried.

the users of drugs may impair the well-being of all employees and/or the public at large. Therefore,
it is the policy of TTL that unlawful manufacture, distribute, dispensation, possession, and/or use
of a controlled substance in TTL's workplace are strictly prohibited. As a condition of employment,
each employee is required to abide by TTL's drug-free workplace policy, a copy of which has been
provided to you. A testing program for all employees has been established. Any employee who
violates this policy will be subject to immediate discipline up to and including termination of
employment.
I. Purpose
The purpose of the Safety Competition is to promote a greater interest in safety awareness and to
recognize employee efforts to work safely.
A. Primary Awards
Monthly drawings will be conducted at the end of each month at each TTL office without a
reportable incident. Employees at TTL offices without a reportable incident will be eligible for
a drawing for a $25 gift certificate at that office. A reportable incident occurs when an employee
receives medical treatment, loses consciousness, is restricted in motion, requires a job transfer for
medical reasons (light-duty), or dies as a result of a workplace injury.
B. Secondary Awards
Each month that ALL TTL OFFICES go without a reportable incident there will be an additional
drawing for one $100 gift certificate. All TTL personnel will be eligible for this drawing except
Corporate Officers and Branch Managers. This secondary award will continue each month with
increasing award amounts for reaching cumulative safety milestones. Any reportable incident
within the company will reset the safety calendar back to zero. After three years without a
reportable incident, the safety calender will reset back to zero. The award schedule for the
secondary awards is as follows:
