Safety precautions should include correct materials acquisition and storage, proper ventilation, and proper grounding of equipment. Equipment should be in good working order. This may include ensuring that periodic maintenance is performed. The work area should be kept neat and clean.
Information and training on hazards should be presented in a manner readily understood by employees and drivers. Whenever possible, information about the unique hazards and precautions necessary for any type of work should be prepared and made readily available.

Organizations with impact on customer contractual or regulatory commitments are
responsible for establishing procedures that comply with the requirements of the QMS.
They are responsible for ensuring that lower-tier procedures are established as necessary
to implement applicable requirements.
These procedures address regulatory requirements and QMS policies, as applicable.
These procedures are reviewed and approved by Executive Management, or designee,
of each branch or organization of MAJD ALYEMEN Co. Adoption of these policies and
procedures by other organizations for implementation will be subjected to review
by those organizations.

The quality requirements contained in the QMS may not address all quality system
requirements invoked by client contracts, or required by a governing regulatory agency,
for each MAJD ALYEMEN Co. project. To define and implement an alternate quality system
for specific projects, it may be necessary to create a Project Quality Plan (PQP) to specify
supplemental quality requirements, identify supplemental/revised procedures,
or provide recognition and compliance with alternative quality standards.
When a PQP is necessary to address these needs, or to provide more detailed information
required for specific customer or market acceptance, the PQP may take the form of
a complete quality assurance program manual based on the commitments of this document.
For the project to which it is applicable, a PQP, in the language it is written, is the definitive
quality system description and applies to activities that affect the quality of items and services
supplied by MAJD ALYEMEN Co.
A PQP is developed, issued, revised and controlled in accordance with established
procedures; it is reviewed and approved by the responsible functional organization
or project management with Quality concurrence.

Work Instructions
Work instructions provide detailed steps to conduct specific work activities.
Work instructions are prepared as needed to supplement procedure requirements
and to ensure that critical work scopes are carried out in a consistent manner.
Managers are responsible for determining where work instructions are required
in their areas of responsibility and for establishing systems for the generation, review,
distribution, revision, and control of work instructions.
Document and Data Control
Managers are responsible for ensuring that all activities affecting the quality of items and
services are accomplished in accordance with controlled documents such as quality system
manuals, procedures, work instructions, and controlled data such as customer order requirements
These documents contain appropriate criteria for determining whether prescribed activities
have been completed satisfactorily. Procedures in MAJD ALYEMEN Co. are established which
provide for document review, approval, issue, and changes to ensure inclusion of customer
technical and quality requirements prior to implementation.
All personnel are responsible for ensuring that the correct revisions of applicable
industry codes and standards are used, in accordance with customer requirements.
