- Description:
- The document from Union Equity Co-operative Exchange outlines their safety procedures and practices at their grain elevators. They use Hot Work permits, bin entry permits, and have written instructions for emergency evacuation procedures and new job training. They have a chain of command for housekeeping, conduct safety meetings, and keep records of safety training. They also mention a failed attempt at installing laminar flow air to reduce dust in a grain elevator leg. They emphasize the importance of complying with general duty regulations to prevent accidents and work closely with insurance underwriters and employees to ensure safe work sites.
