Written for the hazards of the work
A general manual leaves these to you. This one has a practice, a procedure or a permit for each.
Owner permits and isolations
The owner isolates and issues the permit; your crews verify, lock on and work within it, with SIMOPS around operating units.
Line breaking
First break with the operator present, the line drained, depressured and verified, and the right PPE for what was in it.
Toxic and flammable materials
H2S, benzene, SO2 and hydrocarbons left in equipment, with gas testing and respirators chosen by what is measured.
Vessel and tower entry
Permits, continuous monitoring, attendants and a rescue plan, and nitrogen-purged equipment treated as deadly.
Hot work
Hot work beside live units: permits, gas tests, fire watch and the owner’s rules.
Heights, scaffolds and lifts
Scaffold tags and inspections, tie-off, rigging and bundle pulls with exclusion zones.
Pressure, water jetting and catalyst
Hydrotests, high-pressure water jetting and catalyst handling, including pyrophoric scale.
Long shifts away from home
Fatigue, night work, camp life, and each province’s law where the plant is.

Who it is for
Mechanical, piping, boilermaker, welding, scaffolding, insulation, rigging and industrial cleaning contractors who work planned turnarounds, shutdowns and outages, and the general contractors who manage them.
Your crews work inside the owner’s permits, isolations and site rules, alongside operations and many other contractors, under the law of the province or territory the plant is in.
Questions
We work turnarounds in several provinces. Do we need a manual for each one?
No. Your crews follow the law of the province or territory where the plant is, so the manual sets your company’s rules once and section 15 sets out what each jurisdiction adds. You would want a provincial manual only to follow one province’s COR audit to the letter.
Is it laid out for COR?
Yes, on the 14 national elements every harmonized COR audit shares, with all 74 documentation questions cross-referenced. Each province’s certifying partner uses its own audit tool, so check the manual against the one you are certifying with. No template can promise a pass.
Do the exposure control plans cover every province too?
Yes. Every plan comes in 14 editions, one for each province and territory and one for federal workplaces, each in English and French, all in one purchase.
Do you discount the manual and plans together?
Yes. Two or more templates in one order take the multi-template discount automatically at checkout: 10% off 2, 15% off 3, 20% off 4 or more.
Can you tailor it for us?
Yes. Our safety advisors can fit the manual to your trades, your owners’ programs and the provinces you work in. Contact us at info@trustarsafety.com.
