1 3Process Description – Permit to Work System 3.1General:  The permit to work system defines the process to be followed to control specific types of work (non-routine) that may present hazards or high risk to personnel, compromise the integrity of the facility, pose environmental risks or conflict with other work activities by introducing hazards or risks not previously identified  Three types of permits are included within the permit to work system. (Permit Colors Noted) Safe Work Permit (Black on White) Hot Work Permit (Red on White) Confined Space Permit (Green on White)  Each Permit Type will: Be written in English Have a unique reference number Be produced in duplicate Be color coded 2Responsibilities 2.1 Leadership in Safety is Everyone’s Responsibility. We Must ALL ensure that we are executing work activities per this policy. 2.2 Safety Manager is assigned responsibility for ensuring that the expectations in respect of the Permit to work procedure are adequately defined and documented, and thereafter, that the process is effectively implemented and maintained. In addition they will ensure that employees and contractor personnel are provided with Work Permit training, as appropriate to their roles within the permit system 2.3 Plant Manager is assigned responsibility for ensuring expectations and requirements in respect of the Permit to Work procedure are effectively communicated throughout the facility and that there is strict compliance with the documented expectations 2.4 Employees & Contractors are responsible for working in accordance with the expectations defined within the permit to work system when performing non-routine tasks that have a potential to impact on safe operations at the site and for ensuring that concerns and/or omissions that may lead to potential unsafe operation are brought immediately to management’s attention. Employees are reminded that all personnel have the authority to stop work if there is any reason to believes that an unsafe condition exists or may exist 1Scope 1.1To outline and describe the specific process for permitting and conducting non-routine work within the refinery while ensuring appropriate inspection and controls are used to protect people, the environment and assets and compliance with applicable regulatory requirements.
