To All Haulers Contracted to Lafarge,
At Lafarge, the safety of all our employees, customers and contract workers is our
top priority. We are committed to providing a safe and healthy environment to all
persons who work at or visit our operations.
As part of this commitment, Lafarge has developed its “Safe Trucking Program”
(STP), which is designed to provide our visiting drivers with the knowledge and
tools to operate safely and in accordance with Lafarge’s rules and regulations.
This training package is designed to educate each hauler on the policies,
procedures and safe work practices in effect at our Lafarge locations and the
consequences if these rules are not followed.
We thank you for your time in learning the Lafarge Safe Trucking Program.
Safety success requires active participation of all stakeholders. With the personal
commitment to safety of every visiting driver, we can make our goal of zero
incidents a reality.
Regards,
Dave Redfern
Vice President

--- “General Topics” ---
1. Safety Violation Form
A Safety Violation Form will be completed for any reported safety infraction. The Safety
Violation Form is a tool that creates awareness and assists in communicating corrective action to
prevent future Safety Infractions. A record of each safety infraction is provided to the driver, the
company the driver is working for and Lafarge. The severity of the infraction and the
Disciplinary Action Lafarge will be using will be communicated either through the Safety
Violation Form or with a follow up telephone call.
All Safety Violation Forms are recorded in a database and are counted against the individual
driver and the haulage company.
2. Wallet Cards
The wallet card is proof that you have successfully completed the Lafarge Safe Trucking
Program. It should be carried at all times when entering a Lafarge facility. Drivers will
occasionally be asked to show their wallet cards to verify their training status.
3. Communicating with Loaders
The best way to communicate with loaders is either with a C.B. or a written sign stating the legal
weight desired. Do not cut back or add on to the legal weight – the loader is likely already doing
that based on his scales and product. In some cases it may double the over/under load with both
people adjusting.
4. Safe Zones
Safe Zones are provided at all of our Lafarge facilities and are usually combined with
designated tarping areas. In these Safe Zones you can perform your circle checks, inspect
the load and remove any loose material prior to entering the shipping areas or exiting
onto public roadways. Please ask scale house personnel where Safe Zones are located.
5. Breakdowns and Environmental Responsibilities related to spills.
If your truck breaks down, you must contact the scale house. If the breakdown occurs at
the shipping face you will not be allowed to exit the cab until directed by production staff
and the area has been clearly marked off. Any breakdown that results in the release of
oil/fuel/antifreeze or other contaminants must be reported to Lafarge personnel
immediately.
6. Back Up Alarms
A functioning back up alarm is required by law. If your back up alarm malfunctions
during the day, you will be asked to leave until the alarm is fixed.

Working Around Equipment and Blind SpotsWorking Around Equipment and Blind SpotsWorking Around Equipment and Blind SpotsWorking Around Equipment and Blind Spots
Accidents involving mobile equipment occur needlessly every year. These accidents can damage equipment and, more importantly, cause serious injury or death. Poor sight lines and lack of visibility exist in some equipment used on construction project and aggregate sites. This is especially true when the equipment is backing up, or moving in areas where space is limited and the turning radius is tight.
When operating at a site, adhere to the 3 A’s:
AwarenessAwarenessAwarenessAwareness
• Always survey the site and know where mobile equipment is
operating.
• Know traffic rules: speed limits, loading zones, and pedestrian areas.
• Know PPE requirements in all areas.
AvoidAvoidAvoidAvoid
• Never exit a vehicle in restricted areas such as loading zones.
AssistanceAssistanceAssistanceAssistance
• Seek assistance if any of the site traffic requirements are unclear.
• Speak up if direction is needed, PPE is required, or warning devices
on mobile equipment do not function.
The main problem with reversing vehicles and equipment is the
driver or operator's restricted view.
Around dump trucks and heavy equipment such as loaders,
dozers, and graders there are blind spots where the operator
has no view or only a very limited view. The operator may not
see someone standing or parked in these blind spots. Anyone
kneeling or bending over in these areas would be even harder
to see. Consequently the driver or operator must rely on
mirrors or signalers to back up without running over someone
or into something.

MOBILE EQUIPMENT
PEDESTRIAN AND SMALL VEHICLE SAFETY
Safe zone – Maintain safe separation zone between people and mobile equipment.
All mobile equipment has blind spots where the operator’s line of sight is obscured particularly when the
equipment is in reverse.
Safety Advice:
Safe Zone – Individuals (pedestrians) must be kept away from mobile equipment, particularly
where they have to reverse. They should use separate traffic routes whenever possible, for
example pedestrian only areas and safe, designated pedestrian routes. Where this is not possible,
high visibility clothing and good lighting reduces the risk as do other requirements relating to
speed, reversing and visibility.
Vehicles – Smaller vehicles may be at risk of being crushed. Like pedestrians they should be
kept away from areas where large vehicles operate. If this cannot be achieved: i) smaller
vehicles should operate with headlights on at all times; ii) fitted with flashing lights (i.e. strobe
lights) and flags (i.e. buggy whips) or otherwise made readily visible to the operators of large
vehicles.
Awareness – Effective pedestrian training will increase awareness and reduce the potential for
an accident including instructions to:
i) Never approach mobile equipment from behind or when it is handling a raised load;
ii) Always make contact (communications with driver) before entering the operating area of the
mobile equipment;
iii) Avoid coming between mobile equipment and any fixed object;
iv) Understand the location of mobile equipment blind spots;
v) Never take short-cuts;
vi) Stay clear of reversing areas; and
vii) See and be seen – wear high visibility clothing.
Operators – Operators
must remain inside the
cab in operating areas.
When an operator
dismounts mobile
equipment they become a
pedestrian. Persons
outside the cab are
exposed to hazards
including other mobile
equipment, stockpile
sloughing, and material
falling from loader
buckets.

Working Around Overhead Power LinesWorking Around Overhead Power LinesWorking Around Overhead Power LinesWorking Around Overhead Power Lines
Accidents involving overhead power lines occur needlessly every year. These accidents can damage equipment and, more importantly, cause serious injury or death. Overhead high voltage conductors or “lines” are usually bare wires supported by poles or structures. A serious danger exists for personnel when mobile equipment, such as dump trucks, contacts these lines.
The only fail-safe protection that can keep workers free from danger is to keep a safe distance from the power line and avoid accidental direct contact or electrocution from electricity arcing off the line.
When operating at a site, adhere to the 3 A’s: AwarenessAwarenessAwarenessAwareness Always survey the site prior to raising a box to unload. Look for signage indicating power lines as well the actual lines. AvoidAvoidAvoidAvoid If there are overhead wires near the unload zone avoid dumping unless certain that the required clearance is met. Never unload within 6m of an overhead line. AssistanceAssistanceAssistanceAssistance Seek assistance immediately if overhead power lines are present in the unload zone, if there are lines that are not identified, or if dumping procedure is unclear.
If your equipment comes in contact or close proximity with power lines: If your equipment comes in contact or close proximity with power lines: If your equipment comes in contact or close proximity with power lines: If your equipment comes in contact or close proximity with power lines:
If you are in the machine at the time “Stay in the machine” Generally the safest course is to stay in the cab and REMAIN CALM. Don’t touch the equipment and the ground at the same time.
1. Warn others not to approach
2. Stay in machine until power utility says it is safe to exit
3. If an emergency, such as fire, forces you to leave the machine:
a. Jump clear and land with BOTH feet at the same time
b. Do not touch machine and ground at the same time
c. Keep both feet together and arms tight to body
d. Shuffle away at least 10 meters without letting your feet leave the ground
4. If you were not in the machine, stay at least 10 meters away
5. Call Emergency Response as soon as possible at: 911
6. Remember: If a wire has fallen, always consider it to be a power line and energized

AGGREGATES & CONCRETE - NOVEMBER - 2010
SAFETY ALERT FLASH OVERHEAD POWER-LINES
Recently, an aggregate hauler was fatally electrocuted when his truck contacted an overhead power-line at one of our customer sites. As an employee, contractor or sub-contractor, your safety and well-being is a top-priority at Lafarge. In order to deliver each load safely all contract haulers must follow overhead power-line safe work practices and ensure their subcontracted haulers do the same. Please review the following safe work guidelines:
� Make sure there are no overhead lines before you start. Make it a HABIT to look up before you
unload/load construction materials or equipment from a truck or lowboy.
� Walk down and survey the work site before beginning the work to identify all overhead power lines. Consider equipment travel paths and movement. Again, LOOK UP!
� Mark safe routes where equipment must repeatedly travel beneath power lines.
� All overhead power lines shall be considered energized until proven otherwise.
� Operate equipment at a slower-than-normal rate in the vicinity of power lines.
� Exercise caution near long spans of overhead power lines, since wind can cause the power lines to sway laterally and reduce the clearance between the equipment and the power line.
� Exercise caution when traveling over uneven ground that could cause the equipment to weave or bob into power lines.
� Keep all personnel on ground well away from the equipment whenever it is close to power lines.
� When contact is made, never exit the vehicle unless the vehicle is on fire!
� If you have to exit the vehicle/machine due to an emergency situation only, ensure that safe exiting procedures are followed.
� Ensure all persons remain the minimum distance of 10 meters or 33 feet from equipment that has come in contact with electrical energy, until permitted by the local power supplier.

TIP OVER PREVENTION AND AWARENESS
UNEVENLY DISTRIBUTED LOAD
As a driver, you are responsible for inspecting your load PRIOR TO EXITING THE PIT OR
QUARRY. Inspection of the load should occur in DESIGNATED TARPING AREAS located
at all of our Lafarge locations. If you, as the driver, do not feel you can safely transport the
material on public roadways or off-load the material safely at the delivery location you must
inform Lafarge of the issue prior to leaving the Lafarge Site. Once you have left the Lafarge site,
you have accepted responsibility for the Safe transport and unloading of the material.
If you, the driver, feel the load is not properly distributed in the box you should:
o Adjust the load manually for small volumes in the designated tarping area
OR
o Contact the scale house immediately to get assistance in correcting the load
Scale house personnel will discuss the problem with the load with you and contact the loading
staff regarding the issue.
If possible, mobile equipment will be brought up to the scale house to assist in correcting the
load. If this cannot be done in a timely manner, the driver will be directed to return to the
stockpile and the load will be adjusted by the shipping operator.

Spill Response and Mobilization Guideline
• Immediately notify the Site Supervisor/Manager or person in charge of the operation
• The person in charge shall immediately investigate and assess the situation.
If the pollutant poses an immediate safety risk to employees or the public then:
Evacuate all persons from the area immediately and call the fire department and/or police department (#911). Be prepared to give an exact description of the pollutant, the approximate quantity released and the precise location of the spill.
For any spills proceed to Steps below:
• Eliminate or contain the source of any additional spill, leak or other emission that may occur.
• Immediately contain the pollutant using the supplies contained in your spill kit, as well as available equipment and any on site materials (i.e. sand), to build dikes to contain the spill, or divert its flow by ditching. If the pollutant has soaked into the ground, excavate and remove any contaminated soil.
• Any contaminated material that is collected should be temporally placed in a plastic-lined dumpster, or stockpiled on a plastic-lined surface at the site, until proper disposal can be arranged. The dumpster or stockpile should be tarped to prevent precipitation from coming in contact with the contaminated material. Care must be taken to prevent re-release of the pollutant. Replenish any spill kit supplies ASAP.
