Contractor Safety Management — Overview
How we deliver it

Our implementation model

A practical, phased delivery approach — from gap assessment through operational embedding — built around your regulatory context.

Contractor Prequalification (PQ)

Design contractor prequalification per CCPS / OSHA PSM Cl.1910.119(h) / ISNetworld / Avetta — TRIR / LTIFR threshold (typically <1.0 / <2.0), OSHA citation history, financial health, insurance certificates, safety programme adequacy.

Risk-Tier Classification & Engagement

Classify contractors per risk tier — Tier 1 (high-hazard process work — turnaround, hot work, confined space), Tier 2 (moderate — maintenance, inspection), Tier 3 (low — administrative, supply); specify oversight intensity per tier.

Pre-Mobilisation Orientation & HSE Plan

Conduct pre-mobilisation orientation — site induction (typical 4-8 hours), hazard / emergency briefing, PPE issue, JSA / TRA review; review contractor HSE Plan with site-specific hazards and contractor mitigation measures.

Active Work Supervision & PTW

Specify supervision intensity per tier — Tier 1 (continuous supervision, dedicated safety advisor), Tier 2 (intermittent supervision, daily walkdown), Tier 3 (periodic check); integrate with PTW system for hazardous activities.

Performance Monitoring & Feedback

Monitor contractor performance — TRIR, near-miss reporting, observation card submission, audit findings; provide monthly feedback with corrective actions; align with corporate HSE leadership and contractor account management.

Closeout & Lessons-Learned

Conduct contract closeout review — final HSE performance scorecard, lessons learned (safety, schedule, quality), recommendation for future engagement; align with corporate procurement and contractor management database.
