1. Identification of Partners


The primary participants in this Partnership are,
1. Skanska USA Building Inc. (“Skanska”)
2. Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Allentown Area Office (“OSHA”)
3. Pennsylvania OSHA Consultation at Indiana University of Pennsylvania (“PA OSHA Consultation”)
4. Union and Local Building Trades


2. Purpose, Scope and Background
   
   
To facilitate OSHA’s goal of reducing occupationally related fatalities by 3% each year, and reducing the total Rate of Days Away from Work by 4% each year, Region III of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (“OSHA”) and Skanska USA Building Inc. (“Skanska”) have agreed to the joint implementation of the Pennsylvania Power Light (PPL) Intrepid Data & Operations Center partnership during construction of the PPL Intrepid Data & Operations Center Facility.

It provides incentives to construction contractors that voluntarily participate in the PPL Intrepid Data & Operations Center partnership and demonstrate implementation of effective safety and health programs including limited scope. This agreement will not in any way affect employees’ ability to exercise rights under the OSH Act and OSHA regulations, including walk-around rights.

The parties to this agreement recognize that it does not include any exemption from OSHA inspections or penalties. However, the contractors expect that OSHA will acknowledge superior performance by providing timely responses to requests for information and requests for clarification of OSHA standards.

Therefore, OSHA and Skanska at the PPL Intrepid Data & Operations Center are entering into this partnership to foster a safe and healthful workplace for employees by having joint cooperation as prescribed within the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement.


3. Project Overview
   
   
The PPL Intrepid Data and Operations Center is a secure and fully redundant critical facility located in Upper Macungie Township, Pennsylvania. The facility is designed to protect from both natural and manmade threats. The Data and Operations Center consolidates the state of the art PPL Transmission Control, Distribution Control, and Data Centers into one all encompassing location that will capitalize on the advantage of shared utilities. The facility maintains design criteria to meet Energy Star ratings; support high density loads; and Tier III redundancy. The design consolidates distribution/dispatch; includes hardened critical spaces; provides high level security; and accommodates for future growth. The Center’s space programming allots the Distribution /Dispatch 16,463 Square Feet (Sq. Ft.); Transmission 7,302 Sq. Ft.; Data Center 19,070 Sq. Ft.; Electric Utility (EU) Operations Support 12,766 Sq. Ft.; Facility Support 16,470; and Utilities 41,572 Sq. Ft. This provides for an overall facility space of 113,648 Sq. The facility also includes a 16,320 Sq. Ft. Equipment Yard.

Over the life of the project (approximately 14 months) contractors will employ approximately 160 individual construction tradespersons at peak construction. The complete work will include: site improvements including a new building, road and walkway paving and utility services construction, excavation and rock removal work, foundation installation, concrete and reinforcing steel installation, structural steel and miscellaneous metal work, electrical, mechanical/plumbing, painting and other interiors finish work and will incorporate the use of cranes, aerial and scissor lifts and other specialized construction tools and equipment.

Violations of standards, regulations or the General Duty Clause found during verification enforcement inspection may result in citations (refer to Section VII – Benefits for inspection deletion and penalty adjustments). Inspections conducted in response to complaints and referrals may qualify as a verification inspection if, in addition to addressing the complaint or referral items, the compliance officer completes the focused inspection protocol for the entire work site.

The top causes of injuries and illnesses will be determined by all parties prior to and during the initial OSHA non-enforcement audits and enforcement inspection, and may be adjusted based on experience. Additionally, corrections will be identified by all parties and implemented by Skanska. Injury and illness incidence in targeted areas will be evaluated through the OSHA 300 log and any other relevant accident/incident and near miss reports.

OSHA will meet with Skanska quarterly to review partnership issues and to examine updated TCIR and DART rates and the injury and illness experience of Skanska and its subcontractors at this site. OSHA shall provide feedback on any noted incident trends and patterns.

3. Complaint Investigations

This partnership provides for the immediate response to each allegation of a safety or health hazard brought to its attention by any person. Upon a finding that an allegation is valid, the employer shall promptly abate the hazard. OSHA agrees that a copy of each non-formal complaint related to the work at the site and filed with OSHA will be forwarded by fax or mail to the Skanska site office. In accordance with applicable law, the identity of a complainant requesting confidentiality will not be revealed. Skanska agrees to investigate these complaints, regardless of the employer involved and provide OSHA with a written response as follows:



• Non-formal complaints/referrals alleging a hazard: 24 hours

Failure to meet this time frame, or providing a response determined by OSHA to be inadequate, will place the complaint/referral outside the scope of this partnership and OSHA will respond as it would to any complaint of a similar nature.

4. Other Investigations
   

   OSHA personnel will continue to conduct investigations under local and national emphasis programs, workplace complaints, referrals, fatalities, catastrophes, other accidents or significant events, and will investigate contractors whose employees are exposed to or are creating plain view hazards at partnering worksites. These investigations will be conducted outside of this partnership agreement in accordance with established OSHA enforcement policy. Violations documented during such investigations may result in the issuance of citations and penalties.

9. Employee and Employer Rights and Responsibilities
   
   
This Partnership does not preclude employees and/or employers from exercising any right provided under the OSH Act (or, for federal employees, 29 CFR 1960), nor does it abrogate any responsibility to comply with rules and regulations adopted pursuant to the OSH Act..


10. Leveraging
    
    
This partnership seeks to leverage the resources of both Skanska and OSHA by encouraging subcontractors to develop safety and health programs, implement them in an effective manner, complete self inspections, and evaluate worksite conditions and near misses to prevent accidents. By combining resources, Skanska and OSHA expect to have a greater and more positive impact on safe working conditions at this site than could be achieved otherwise.


11. Annual Evaluation
    
    
The partners will prepare a joint evaluation of the partnership annually. The evaluation will review the success of the partnership, lessons learned, and changes that will be made to meet the goals of the partnership. The annual performance evaluation report format from Appendix C of the OSHA Strategic Partnership Program (OSPP) Directive CSP 03-02-002 will be used (see Appendix D of this agreement).

APPENDIX A

Skanska PPL Intrepid Data & Operations Center Project Partnership Fact Sheet

A strategic partnership agreement has been developed jointly by the United States Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration Allentown Area Office (“OSHA”), and Skanska USA Building Inc (“Skanska”). The common objective and goal of the program is to develop a contractor/government partnership that encourages all construction contractors to improve their safety and health performance, assist them in doing that, strive for the elimination of serious accidents in the construction industry, and to recognize those contractors with exemplary safety and health programs. The specific impetus behind the agreement is to provide a safe and healthful work environment for workers engaged in construction activities for the project.

Expected outcomes of this partnership include: developing criteria for a model multi-employer worksite safety and health program which specifically identifies the responsibilities of each subcontractor; making safety and health materials available to all subcontractors onsite; planning for safety and health in all aspects of the project; providing visible safety and health leadership; achieving participant recordable illness and injury rates below the national average for the construction industry; and focusing OSHA enforcement activity on those subcontractors and tiered subcontractors who have little or no regard for the safety and health of their workers.

The agreement provides incentives to subcontractors and tiered subcontractors who voluntarily improve their safety and health performance. Incentives will include special recognition from OSHA and focused enforcement efforts by OSHA and consideration for additional good faith penalty reductions.

This agreement is consistent with OSHA’s long-range effort to develop a contractor/government partnership approach to safety management. It allows for better use of OSHA resources and for innovation in safety management, and it encourages more participation in the safety process by each stakeholder.
