Re.: Concerns about Compliance with OSHA Prohibitions against Retaliation
I am concerned about how the recent situation is being handled. Unless I am unaware of additional information or documentation related to this matter, I recommend that we revisit the situation related to this matter, and seek technical assistance to ensure that we have not made any errors in violation of laws that prohibit unlawful retaliation.
We share a strong commitment to the consistent application of all policies as well as legal compliance with all relevant city, state, and federal laws related to E&OE laws. I know we share a commitment to prevent liability exposure as well as personal liability exposure.
The resources below are free and available to us to use at any time. My membership in the School of HK’s provides free information, white papers, case-law information, and cutting-edge research capabilities along with toolkits for how to best handle E&OE and SH-related issues. I recommend that we use these resources in the future to ensure legally complaint decision-making processes related to E&OE and SH issues.
1 All pipe is to be made of a long hole, surrounded by metal or plastic centered around the hole.
2 All pipe is to be hollow throughout the entire length. Do not use holes of different length than the pipe.
3 The I.D (Inside diameter) of all pipe must not exceed the O.D (Outside diameter) otherwise the hole will be on the outside.
4 All pipe is to be supplied with nothing in the hole so that water, steam or other stuff can be put inside at a later date.
5 All pipe to be supplied without rust – this can be more readily applied at the job site
6 All pipe over 153m (500ft) in length should have the words “Long pipe” Painted on each end, so that the contractor will know it is a long pipe.
7 Pipe over 3.2km (2 miles) in length must also have the words “long pipe” painted in the middle, so that the contractor will not have to walk the entire length of the pipe to determine weather or knot it is a long pipe.
8 All pipe over 150mm (6” ) in diameter must have the words “Large Pipe” painted on it so the contractor will not mistake it for a small pipe.
9 When ordering 90 degree, 45 degree or 30 degree elbows, be sure to specify right or left hand, otherwise you could end up going the wrong way.
10 Be sure to specify to your vender whether you want level, uphill or downhill pipe. If you use downhill pipe for uphill use, the water will flow the wrong way.
11 All couplings should have either right or left hand threads, but do not mix the threads otherwise, as the coupling is being screwed on one pipe it is unscrewing from the other end
