The FAR clause at 48 CFR 52.236–13
Accident Prevention requires Federal
construction contractors to keep records
of accidents incident to work performed
under the contract that result in death,
traumatic injury, occupational disease
or damage to property, materials,
supplies or equipment. Records of
personal inquiries are required by
OSHA (OMB Control No. 1220–0029).
The FAR requires records of damage to
property, materials, supplies or
equipment to provide background
information when claims are brought
against the Government.
If the contract involves work of a long
duration, the contractor must submit a
written proposal for implementation of
the clause. The Accident Prevention
Plan, for projects that are hazardous or
of long duration, is analyzed by the
contracting officer along with the
agency safety representatives to
determine if the proposed plan will
meet the requirement of the safety
regulations and applicable statutes. The
records maintained by the contractor are
used to evaluate compliance and may be
used in workmen’s compensation cases.
The Accident Prevention Plan is placed
in the contract file for reference.
