Safety Hazard Reporting Program Overview

The Safety Hazard Reporting (SHR) Program is a means for employees to report hazards and possible solutions and receive a personal response back from their supervisor or the Safety Department. If the supervisor is unable to resolve the safety concern, the SHR will be referred to the next highest level of management for action.If the employee is unsatisfied with the response or the effectiveness of the solution, they can take their concern to the Safety Department for resolution. 

Employees working in a particular job know the most about their work environment and the feasibility of proposed solutions. For this reason, employee participation in the SHR is critical to its success. Participation by all employees is greatly appreciated. Employees are encouraged to submit their name and contact information for personal follow-up. However, anonymous forms or online reports will be accepted and investigated. Anonymous reports should be forwarded to both the supervisor and the Safety Department at SEASQ. No punitive action will be taken by the company against employees who submit safety hazard reports.

Any safety hazard that presents an immediate threat to life or health should be reported to your supervisor or Safety Department without delay. Actual emergencies should be reported to the appropriate emergency provider (i.e. 911).

Safety Hazard Reporting Program Guidelines
Where to Obtain a SHR
The (SHR) forms can be obtained in three ways:
1) Via the web
2) Through Arctic (to be distributed at a later date)
3) From a supervisor or the Safety Department

Submission Requirements
Employees are encouraged to provide all requested information on the SHR for maximum efficiency. Especially important is the Proposed Solution. As stated above, anonymous forms will be accepted but do not permit personal follow-up from the supervisor or Safety Department.

Supervisory Response Time
The employee’s supervisor or manager shall meet and/or speak with the employee to communicate their intended action within seven (7) days from the date of receipt.

Abatement Implementation
Hazard abatements shall be evaluated with respect to their effectiveness, feasibility and compliance with state and federal regulations. Interim solutions are encouraged and acceptable pending final resolution.

SHR Recordkeeping
Once the supervisor has met or spoken with the employee and completed the supervisor portion, the SHR shall be forwarded to SEASQ.
