Stop Work Orders
Overview
A stop work order must be given when imminent danger is identified or where significant damage to equipment or property or environmental degradation could occur if the operation continued. (See LBNL/PUB-3000, Chapter 1, and Section 1.5 for further details.) When a stop work order is issued, only those areas of a construction project immediately involved in the identified hazardous situation are to be included in the order.
In case of subcontract work, any employee that observes an imminent-danger situation must report it to the contractor representative at the work site; however, only LBNL supervisors, employees working through their supervisor, or authorized construction personnel can stop work. Immediately after stopping work, the person issuing the order must notify the project manager, safety engineer, or project inspector of his/her action. The project manager, project inspector, or construction safety engineer will be dispatched to the site to verify that the operation has stopped and that the stop order was exercised in a justifiable and responsible manner.
Work cannot restart until the EH&S Division has agreed that the imminent danger has been eliminated. Notification to restart work will be passed to the construction subcontractor by the Project Manager.
