LBNL Stop Work Policy

All Berkeley Lab employees, contractors, and participating guests are responsible for stopping work activities that are considered to be an imminent danger. An “imminent danger” is defined as any condition or behavior that could reasonably be expected to cause death, serious injury, or environmental harm. Whenever an employee, contractor, or participating guest encounters conditions or practices that appear to constitute an imminent danger, such individuals have the authority and responsibility to:

• Alert the affected employee(s) or contractor(s) engaged in the unsafe work creating
  an imminent-danger condition and request that the work be stopped
• Call x6999 and report the incident
  An EH&S staff will investigate
• Notify the immediate Supervisor and/or responsible division/department manager

Note: When in doubt about a safety condition, contact your Supervisor.
            Refer to LBNL’s Health & Safety Manual (Pub-3000) for more information.
