PURPOSE This handbook is intended to be a guideline for all outside contractors and their employees who perform services on or in any of our Milton Roy facilities. Examples of such services include but are not limited to construction trades, industrial cleaners, machine repair, equipment maintenance and service and engineering firms, consultants, laboratory, manufacturing or office services. Milton Roy requires that all applicable Environmental, Health and Safety measures be followed by the contractor during all phases of work on all projects to ensure the safety of contractor personnel, Milton Roy employees and property. The general contractor or contractor is responsible for its agents and subcontractor's actions in regards to compliance with all applicable laws and Milton Roy procedures. The rules and requirements outlined in this booklet should serve as a guide. These requirements are not all inclusive and there may be additional requirements that are specific to the site or tasks. The contractor, as a minimum, must comply with applicable Occupational, Safety and Health Act (OSHA) sections 1910 and 1926 National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations. If there are any questions about this guide, or any doubt concerning any Environmental, Health or Safety issues contact your employer, you’re Milton Roy Project Coordinator or a Milton Roy EHS professional. Copies of this guide are available from your project coordinator or the site Environmental, Health & Safety Department.

The MILTON ROY Cardinal Rules are: Confined Space Confined Spaces shall be identified and written procedures established and followed for entry. GFCI use on all Extension Cords and Portable Power Tools Contractor employees shall use Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) on all portable tools and portable electrical devices used in all manufacturing/assembly/overhaul & repair, service/maintenance or installation activities where construction activities are performed, or where there is the potential for exposure to damp/wet areas or the potential for damage to cords/plugs/receptacles. Elevated Work Contractor employees shall use fall protection when exposed to a fall hazard (working at an elevated level of 6 feet or more). Lockout Tagout Prior to performing work on machines or equipment, contractor employees shall identify all hazardous energy forms, bring them to a Zero Energy State and secure them. Zero Energy State is defined as the elimination and/or control of hazardous energy such that it no longer represents a hazard to personnel. This shall include but is not limited to mandatory use of lockout / tagout procedures when working on any electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, compressed gas, chemical or thermal processes. Machine Guarding 15 | P a g e

Cardinal Rule 3. If under four feet but greater than one foot - Snow fencing, expandable gates, or equivalent at least 42" high, four feet from edge of pit. 4. If under one foot and unattended (i.e. work is not in progress), caution tape four feet from edge of pit. 5. If the barrier will interfere with a main aisle or completely block the only means of egress of a department aisle, the 4-foot minimum distance from the edge is waived. If this creates a greater hazard to personnel working inside the barrier however, alternate barricading methods may be used if authorized by the Contract/Project coordinator and the EH&S department.

Removal of soils from, or adding soils to, storage areas requires approval from MILTON ROY for each job. Soil removed and placed in these areas is characterized for specific uses and is subject to tracking. Dumping of concrete and debris in these areas is not allowed. Contact your Contract/Project coordinator or the EH&S department for guidance.
