1.0
Purpose
Stop work occurs when an imminent danger has developed; a hazard issue is discovered and a Task Hazard Analysis (THA)reveals a post mitigated Risk Code of >3; or individuals cannot resolve a hazard issue in an acceptable manner. Work is stopped until acceptable mitigation measures can be implemented.
2.0
Scope
Stop work is not
meant to replace safety mitigation measures developed during work
planning. Rather it is primarily used
when an unanticipated hazard of Risk
Code >3 develops during work in progress.
This procedure does not take the place of “common-sense.” Suggestions, recommendations, or other forms of communications which takes place on a day-to-day basis between individuals, which provide “on the spot resolutions” to safety concerns, are not required to be formally documented.
