Prior to the start of work, all contractors must submit a site • specific Project Safety Plan. This plan should identify all • potential hazards of the specific work to be performed based on • the contractor’s walk-through review of the work area and project • details, and provide a detailed description of the work activities • focusing attention on safety measures to be employed on the job. • An example of a project safety plan is located on the contractor • safety website at :www.xids.com/xrxcontr/ Project SafetySubmit a Project Safety Plan

Xerox Contractor Safety and building safety personnel perform • site inspections to verify that the contractor is working in • accordance with Xerox and OSHA safety requirements. A “defect” • may be recorded for every deviance from OSHA or Xerox • requirements, or from the contractor’s safety plan. This defect, • if identified, may require immediate resolution, and may be • brought to the attention of the contractor’s home office. • When it is received, the home office must submit a response • indicating how the defect was corrected and the actions for • preventing any recurrence.

When the new facility or equipment is ready to be turned over • to Xerox Operations, a final review and acceptance evaluation is • required. This final acceptance is commonly referred to as • the 303 process. • This process requires all required safety and operational controls • to be in place, tested, and verified by the customer prior to • receiving final acceptance. The 303 process is described in • further detail in the Xerox Corporate Safety & Health Standards. Project SafetyFinal Review and Acceptance Evaluation
When all of the action items from the review and final acceptance • evaluation have been completed, the project is ready to receive final • acceptance and be turned over to operations. A record of final • acceptance should be maintained by the project team, safety • representative and operations. The facility/ equipment is now • considered to be an existing asset and is subject to that portion • of the asset protection process. Project SafetyFinal Acceptance and Turnover
