2 We genuinely care about the health and safety of our employees and contractors who undertake maintenance and refurbishment task at our sites. We also recognise that completion of the tasks in a safe, timely and quality manner is the foundation for ensuring that CS Energy continues to generate electricity safely, reliably and economically. To achieve this, we use the Permit to Work System (PTW) to provide all workers safe access to plant and equipment. The PTW System is considered our primary safety system and is used widely across CS Energy s sites.

3 The PTW System ensures a high level of control and minimisation of risk in areas that contain energy. CS Energy s PTW system has been developed to comply with the Generator s Permit to Work Code of Practice. This Manual outlines the key elements of this system such as roles and responsibilities, procedures, training, reporting and monitoring activities. Copies of this company-wide Manual are available at each CS Energy site. It is also included on the company s intranet, where additional supporting documentation, such as our hazard control procedures, isolation procedures, standard operating procedures, is also held.

4 I encourage you to familiarise yourself with this Manual . Only with the dedication of every person on every CS energy site, can we achieve our goal of zero harm.
