Mentoring your way to Excellence

Leverage what you have to work with…. Utilize your organization problem solving process

How does your company solve for restaurant deficiencies? Labor, Food Cost, inventory, supplies, Utilities,etc.

High Performers have solved the Safety Culture Concept If they are not having accidents is that an Accident?

Mentorship- “someone who teaches or gives help and advice to a less experienced and often

younger person” Tutor or Guide. The Coaching Tree Examples

Every reported accident requires the Mgr to provide the ASL Root Cause Explanation ASL will Participates in a Monthly conference Call with Mgr, Mentoring Mgr ASL & mentoring Mgr conduct onsite restaurant review Quarterly until restaurant is

out of high risk group.

Understand the ins/outs of OSHA inquiries, inspections, hearings,

and abatements.

Be Proactive- Its not “IF” but “WHEN” OSHA contacts your restaurants by mail or in person. There are several reason that prompt an OSHA Inspection

A complaint from an employee is most common. Or a failure to respond to an OSHA letter or inquiry

Use the existing emergency notification protocol for reporting OSHA contact. - OSHA is authorized to make unannounced safety inspections of workplaces and

they may contact you through an official letter of inquiry. If an OSHA compliance officer does come to one of your restaurants &

asks to conduct an inspection: -ask for proper identification -get the compliance officers business card -ask for the specific safety issue they are checking and try to limit the visit to that

issue

-Electrical -- make certain electrical outlet covers, light switch covers, electrical plugs/cords and circuit breaker box covers and labels are in place and are in good condition (each circuit breaker must be labeled)

-Emergency Exits -- make certain all emergency exits have a sign, are unlocked and have clear, unobstructed access during all hours that team members are in the building

-Personal Protection -- where applicable, make certain you have available and in good condition; heat resistant gloves, cut resistant gloves, rubber gloves, goggles and any other safety tool that prevents possible injury

Inspections,

Every attempt should be made to have the Area Director and the restaurant General Manager be there.

However, the Inspector does have the right to conduct his/her inspection with or without them.

Manager on Duty should stay with the OSHA compliance officer throughout the restaurant inspection. Show their interest in team member safety by immediately correcting any safety issue that is observed during the inspection.

take written notes of everything the officer writes down or photographs. (photograph what they photograph)

note any questions the officer may ask and the answers team members provide

ask for a closing recap of the inspection and if a citation will be issued don’t allow anyone to admit to violations or correction dates they can’t

achieve

Informal Conference and Settlement

Before deciding whether to file a Notice of Contest, an employer may request an informal conference with the OSHA area director to discuss the citation and notification of penalty. This is an opportunity for the employer to:

Obtain a better explanation of the violations cited; Obtain a more complete understanding of the specific standards which

apply; Negotiate and enter into an informal Settlement Agreement; Discuss ways to correct the violations; Discuss problems with the abatement dates; Discuss problems concerning employee safety practices; Resolve disputed citations and penalties; and Obtain answers to any other questions you may have.

General Duty Clause –Section 5(a)1

“Each employer shall furnish to each of his employees employment and a place of employment which is free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees.”

One way to deal with the increasing threat of general duty violations is to make good faith effort to correct existing workplace hazards and to identify and address new hazards as they appear. Regularly review your accident records Investigate every accident to determine the specific cause and to determine

whether any action needs to be taken to prevent the accident from recurring. Conduct job hazard analysis Document training and conduct periodic retraining
