Safety Knights

Are you referring to signage during the construction process or after it's built?

We use a lot of subs for all sorts of work, In our vetting process we require our subs to provide us with their accident prevention programs. This has a multifaceted effect. It shows that your subs are safety conscious and also helps you with an area to pinpoint requirements.
I have a standing rule with all of my Subs, that I trust they are doing what they are required to do, but I will also verify, if it is something that I do not have direct knowledge of.

Each of the items you listed have nuances that overlap, and some are horizontal. Your subs want to be safe and may even be your subject matter experts. Use the available resources you are paying for :D

I would brush up in 1926 in regard to all of those items you mentioned. You are in the right direction in your response to Drew on what you need to do.

There is a lot of policy and Environmental requirements that come along to. Properly designed entrances, SWPPP if over and acre of disturbance, and SPCC for your contractor's fuel that they will keep on-site. They cannot be kept a certain amount of distance in proximity to water ways, wetland, and railroad crossings.

As chuck mentioned below, lean on them heavily. Trust but verify. Have them submit to you their ERM, plans to include all mentioned above and any other type of work (excavations, potential critical lifts, ect.)

Above all else, do not be afraid to ask them questions. I assisted a large Utility provided in the evaluation of our sub-contractors plans if they didn't have what we asked for.

You NOI, notice of intent will need to be submitted before you can break ground. Has this occurred, you developers can help with it.

Construction in progress no unauthorized entry. Decorate with that and hold the subcontractors accountable for their barricades and signs.

Here is a list of signs (in no particular order) that I post on my sites. Granted not all of these are OSHA required, and your own internal rules may differ but we have gotten a lot of positive feedback from insurance companies and compliance officers on our signage. 1. No Smoking Signs 2. No Trespassing Signs 3. Hot Work Permits Required 4. PPE Required 5. Temp FDC Signage (if applicable) 6. Emergency evacuation routes 7. A sign identifying where you are in the building

I would also strongly recommend creating a map of the overall site and demarcating where subs will store their materials (flammable or otherwise). This is extremely helpful for the project team, as well as for you to plan out signage. It also never hurts to have it on hand to pass along to the fire department in the event of an incident.
