Minimum Expectations for Safety Orientation - Contractors

Orientation helps new and transferred employees become familiar with the contractor's and Marathon's safety policies and procedures at the worksite. Marathon requires that every contractor and subcontractor employee receive a formal safety orientation as a condition of work authorization before starting the job.

A three-level orientation is recommended:

Industry Safety Orientation
Safeland^TM and Safegulf^TM orientation are accepted by Marathon as meeting the industry safety orientation requirement. An equivalent safety orientation program is acceptable provided it covers the topics included in the Safeland^TMand Safegulf^TM programs, as applicable to the scope of work performed by the contractor.

Contractor Company Safety Orientation that includes:

• Contractor company policies - HES, Alcohol and Drug, Weapons, etc.
• Alcohol and Drug abuse monitoring
• Hours of work/management of fatigue
• Job responsibilities
• Job hazards and safety precautions
• Safe work systems and practices
• Personal Protective Equipment requirements
• Behavioral Safety/hazard identification and reporting arrangements
• New on Job / Short Service Employee identification and mentoring plan
• Incident and accident reporting
• Location of first aid station(s) and fire extinguishers
• Emergency alarms, muster and evacuation procedures
• Regulatory requirements
• Safety enforcement procedure

Marathon Site Safety Orientation
A Marathon site safety orientation must be received by each contractor and subcontractor employee wishing to perform safety-sensitive work at a Marathon location. The orientation is usually provided by Marathon at the worksite or the field office and should be requested by the contractor well in advance of the work.

Note: Safety orientations are intended to provide a basic understanding of work hazards at the awareness level and do not fulfill training requirements prescribed by regulations, industry or Marathon standards.
