1.0 Introduction:

The Sadara Chemical Company may be named hereinafter as Sadara. This document defines the
roles, responsibilities and minimum requirements for the Contractors and Subcontractors, who shall
be working on Sadara site. It describes the minimum safety regulations and safety procedures that
should lead to the desired goals for EH&S. Every Contractor & sub-contractor company shall be fully
aware of the contents of the EH&S Contractor Management Guideline and they shall commit to this
by having a senior member of their management sign acceptance of the Plan. The content of this
document does not exempt the contractor from any of his responsibilities. Sub-Contractors shall be
considered in all respects as contractor’s own personnel. Sadara identifies excellence in EH&S as a
contractual prerequisite for work to be performed on site. This EH&S Guideline must be reviewed,
revised and re-issued when subject to significant change and at least after three years.

1.1 Objective:

The objectives of this document are:

• Guidance for contractors on their EH&S Plan submission to Sadara.


• Develop a strategy for proactive management of Contractor EH&S
• Describe a planned approach to Management of Contractor EH&S that shall ensure a
continuing improvement in EH&S performance for all contractor activities.
• Describe the role and responsibilities of key personnel in contractor EH&S management.

1.2 EH&S Policy:

At Sadara, protecting people and the environment will be part of everything we do and every decision
we make. Each employee has a responsibility in ensuring that our products and operations meet
applicable government or Sadara standards, whichever is more stringent. Our goal is to eliminate all
injuries, prevent adverse environmental and health impacts, reduce wastes and emissions and
promote resource conservation at every stage of the life cycle of our products. We will report our
progress and be responsive to the public.

"We align with external Responsible Care ® expectations associated with the environment, health,
safety, and security through our implementation of and compliance with the policies/requirements
stated within Section 06.00 of Sadara's Operating Disciple Management System (ODMS). In addition,
some Responsible Care ® elements are covered in Section 05.00 (management system
policies/requirements) and Section 08.00 (design, operation, and maintenance policies/requirements)
of Sadara's ODMS".

ODMS based management plans that summarize various aspects of ODMS were created in an earlier
phase of the project. Those plans are linked here for your reference, Sadara Management Plans
(EMPs).

1.9 Guideline Intent:

This guideline has been prepared with regards to ODMS 06.06 Non Sadara Services Providers
activities in Sadara. It shall be reviewed on an ongoing basis to reflect any changes in scope and
knowledge.

1.10 Objectives, Targets & Program:

Contractor shall ensure that Objectives, Targets such as Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) and
Plans are documented at relevant levels and functions within the organization as part of the EH&S
continual improvement process. The relevant resources required to achieve the objective shall be
clearly identified along with the timeframe for completion of the program. Contractor shall ensure that
the objectives, targets and programs are measurable, where practicable, and consistent with their
EH&S policy, including the commitment to compliance with legal and other requirements, as well as
to continual improvement.

2.0 Identification & Evaluation of Hazards:

One of the "root causes" of workplace injuries, illnesses, and incidents are the failure to identify or
recognize hazards that are present, or that could have been anticipated. A critical element of any
effective safety and health program is a proactive, ongoing process to identify and assess such
hazards.

2.1 Pre- Task Hazard Analysis (PTHA):

The Pre-Task Hazard Analysis (PTHA) is the tool used by every individual to document that hazard
analysis. A PTHA shall be completed at the start of each day for the task assigned, and then updated
or a new one completed as the task assigned to a worker changes during the course of the day.

The PTHA contains the following data:

• A short yet full description of the job, its location, and relevant conditions.
• A listing of the potential hazards and hazard elimination controls.
• A checklist of key safety issues for review / consideration.
• A task completion checklist

Each group supervisor/foreman or his designee shall complete a combined PTHA for a particular job
followed by endorsement from all the assigned crew members at the job location before starting the
activity and PTHA shall be kept at job site until the job is completed. All PTHA are collected at the
end of the day by the Contractor’s Safety Representative for audit. The PTHA card shall be subject
to spots checks by Sadara and shall always be checked during an audit. The work can only start
when all members of the group have come to the conclusion that the work can be executed safely.

Any Crew member has the authority to stop the job if they feel that an unsafe condition exists. Refer
Appendix 1 (PTAC) of this document.

2.2 Risk Assessment:

Risk Assessments are used to analyse high risk work to be performed, they must be prepared for
each high-risk task and as far as is practicable they shall be specific to the task and the site hazards.

when requesting a permit. The safety aspects of the work shall be communicated to all people in-
volved in the execution and supervision before commencing the job. Refer Appendix 2 (RA) of this
document.

2.3 Job Safety Analysis (JSA):

A job hazard analysis is a technique that focuses on job tasks as a way to identify hazards before
they occur. It focuses on the relationship between the worker, the task, the tools, and the work
environment. Ideally, after you identify uncontrolled hazards, you will take steps to eliminate or reduce
them to an acceptable risk level. Contractor shall submit the Job Safety Analysis (JSA) to the Sadara
area owner for review and approval prior to start the activity. A copy of the JSA must be made
available to the Permit Issuer for discussion when requesting a permit. The safety aspects of the work
shall be communicated to all people involved in the execution and supervision before commencing
the job. Refer Appendix 3 (JSA) of this document.
