Post de-icing inspection, where this is delegated to ground staff, can oly be performed by a suitable qualified person and this person should be able to identify themselves by issuing a personalised realise. IX. Severe Weather Operations Introduction Severe weather is a constant danger to all industries that have activities outdoors. Airsides operations are particularly affected because of the open areas of airports that are part of the work are. A Severe Weather Operations Plan should be established. Scope This section provides industry recommended practices that when included in a Severe Weather Operations Plan can minimize the dangers associated with severe weather in the airside workplace. Weather definitions High/sustained winds: winds whether steady or gusting in excess of 75 kph (40 knots). Lightning: shall include cloud-to-cloud as well as cloud-to-ground electrical activity. Low visibility: shall include rain, snow, sandstorms of fog conditions when visibility is typically below 800 m (1/2 mile). Ground icing conditions: shall include the presence of snow and ice on surfaces and movement areas as well as when surface temperatures/ wind-chill can cause freezing. Working in Extreme Temperatures (hot and cold) Notification to staff is to be coordinated with the specifics of the weather patterns as wind conditions will add to the effects of extreme temperature conditions. (E.g. wind chill, sand storms). Extreme Temperatures Extreme temperatures might affect personal safety performance depending on time of exposure, personal protection, activity and work rotation. All staff should be made aware of the hazards, and processes that should be adapted to such extreme conditions where applicable. Medical advice should be sought in the event of extremes in temperatures. - 28 -
Heat stress will result in poor performance, lack of concentration, dehydration, and in the most severe cases of hospitalization. Awareness should be given to the exposure to working in the environment. Heat stress injuries can be reduced by some of the following: • Adequate breaks, ventilation and shelter between activities to reduce exposure to sunrays. • Ample supply of drinking water located near to work area. • Loose and appropriate clothing. • Work rotation and monitoring. Cold affects the human performance such as loss of feeling, fatigue, muscle seizures, loss of awareness, poor concentration and in severe cases may result in hospitalisation. Prolonged exposure to wind is a significant factor in increasing cold weather effects on the human body (wind chill factor). Things to mitigate the cold effects are: • Correct clothing. • Rotation of activity. (essential to sedimentary staff) • Staff monitoring. • Adequate breaks provision of hot fluids and warmed shelter between activities. A wind-chill chart or forecast shall be made available to staff. Severe Weather Forecasting Knowing when severe weather will impact your work site is a key element in prevention of injuries or damage. Below are some methods to obtain timely information on approaching weather: • Internal weather forecasting. • National Weather Service Alerts. • Local TV and Radio broadcasts. • Pilot reports. • Airport tower observations • Ramp tower observations. • Local detection devices. - 29 -
