I. Scope/Background
To facilitate OSHA’s goal of reducing occupationally related fatalities by 3% each year, and
reducing the total Rate of Days Away from Work by 4% each year, Region III of the Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and Barton Malow Company have agreed to the joint
implementation of this partnership during construction of the 78 million dollar Bayfront Convention
Center (BCC) and Sheraton Headquarters Hotel.
The Convention Center is located on the 15 acre Sassafras Pier site. The Convention Center has
150,000 square feet consisting of meeting rooms, exhibition hall, ballroom, restrooms, concessions,
loading docks, full service kitchen, laundry and offices. Building construction consists of concrete
footings, steel frame, precast and metal siding exterior. One unique feature is that some of the
roof structure over the exhibit hall is cable and mast supported for snow loading. Attached to the
Bayfront Convention Center is an elevator tower which supports a pedestrian walkway attaching to an
identical tower on the opposite side of the basin on West Dobbins Landing, which will provide an all
weather enclosure from the Sheraton Hotel to the BCC. The pedestrian walkway is supported 65 feet
above the water to facilitate sailboats passing beneath the walkway.
The Sheraton Headquarters Hotel project consists of a 2+ acre site with a stair/elevator tower,
attached to a walkway to the 125,000 square foot, 8 stories, 200 rooms, Sheraton Headquarters Hotel.
The hotel consists of main floor mechanical, electrical rooms, full service kitchen, restaurant,
bar, fitness center, restrooms, pool/whirlpool, laundry, offices, and 3 elevators. The building is
concrete caissons, grade beams, structural slab on grade, steel frame, precast concrete plank
flooring on floors 2 thru 8. The building enclosure consists of structural stud framing, exterior
insulation and finish systems (EIFS), masonry, and curtain wall construction. The second floor
contains meeting rooms and guest rooms. Floors 3 thru 7 consist of all guest rooms and some vending
rooms. The eighth floor consists of club level luxury suites with club lounge and pantry.
Also located on the site is a 4 story, 300 space parking structure. The parking structure consists
of caissons, grade beams, structural slab on grade, post tensioned concrete on elevated decks, 2
elevators, electrical room, and emergency generator room to support garage and hotel and provisions
for a future full service restaurant at grade level.
The goal of this program is to develop a contractor/government partnership that will encourage
construction contractors to improve their safety and health performance, assist them in doing that,
strive for the elimination of serious accidents in the construction industry, and recognize those
contractors with exemplary safety and health programs.
This agreement between Barton Malow Company and OSHA is expected to result in decreased serious
injuries and illnesses and fatalities for the site and improve existing safety and health programs.
It provides incentives to construction contractors that voluntarily participate in the Bayfront
Convention Center and Sheraton Headquarters Hotel partnership and demonstrate implementation of
effective safety and health programs, for example, limited scope inspections and reductions in
penalties. This agreement will not in any way affect employees’ ability to exercise rights under the
OSH Act and OSHA regulations, including walk-around rights.
The parties to this agreement recognize that it does not include any exemption from OSHA inspections
or penalties. However, the contractors expect that OSHA will acknowledge superior performance by
providing timely responses to requests for information and requests for clarification of OSHA
standards.
Therefore, OSHA and Barton Malow Company are entering into this partnership to foster a safe and
healthful workplace for employees by having joint cooperation as prescribed within the terms and
conditions set forth in this agreement.
II. Identification of Partners
The primary participants in this partnership are:
- Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Erie Area Office (OSHA)
- Barton Malow Company
- Pennsylvania OSHA Consultation at Indiana University of Pennsylvania (“PA OSHA Consultation”)
- Union and Local Building Trades
III. Project Overview
Over the life of the project (approximately 22 months) contractors will employ approximately 200
individual construction tradespersons at peak construction. The complete work will include: site
construction, concrete, excavation work, structural steel and miscellaneous metal work, track work,
electrical, masonry, mechanical/plumbing, rebar installation, caissons, cranes and lifts use and
installation and painting. At the present time 12 to 14 months of construction remain. Peak
employment in the spring of 2007 will again reach around 200 workers.
IV. Goals, Strategies, Measures
The partnership’s goal is to reduce injuries and illnesses and fatalities through a cooperative
relationship between Barton Malow Company and OSHA. This goal will be accomplished by implementing
and following the plan outlined below and evaluating these actions as indicated:
- Develop, implement and maintain effective and comprehensive safety and health programs in
accordance with OSHA’s 1989 Safety and Health Program Management Guidelines or its equivalent.
Barton Malow Company agrees to complete a self-audit and an evaluation of subcontractors’ safety and
health programs in accordance with OSHA’s 1989 Safety and Health Management Guidelines or its

review by OSHA to track the progress of the partnership in meeting its goals to reduce injury and illness
rates and to prepare an annual report to evaluate the merits of the partnership.
VII. On-Site Verification Inspection and Benefits
- Verification
In order to assist in measuring the success of this partnership, a verification inspection
consisting of a review of the written program elements outlined herein and a focused inspection of
site construction hazards by a Compliance Safety and Health Officer will be conducted after the
signing of this agreement, and annually thereafter. The timing of the inspection will be intended to
evaluate employee exposure to the four focused hazards: falls, struck-by, caught-in, and
electrocution. After the initial verification inspection, annual inspections will focus on the most
serious hazards that have been previously identified pursuant to the procedure herein.
The top causes of injuries and illnesses will be determined by all parties prior to and during the
initial OSHA verification inspection, and may be adjusted based on experience. Additionally,
corrections will be identified by all parties and implemented by Barton Malow Company. Injury and
illness incidence in targeted areas will be evaluated through the OSHA 300 log and any other
relevant accident reports.
OSHA will meet with Barton Malow Company quarterly to review partnership issues and to examine
updated DART rates and the injury and illness experience of Barton Malow Company and its contractors
at this site. OSHA shall provide feedback on any noted incident trends and patterns.
- Benefits
Subcontractors, if participating in this partnership, will be granted a twelve-month inspection
deferral from programmed inspections, following a successful onsite verification inspection.
OSHA will not issue penalties to participating contractors for other-than-serious violations,
provided the violations are immediately abated. OSHA reserves the right to issue penalties for
regulatory violations for which mandatory penalties are established pursuant to the policy set forth
in the Field Inspection Reference Manual (FIRM).
When calculating initial penalty reductions, OSHA may provide an additional 10% penalty reduction
for good faith to participating contractors provided they have taken steps to adopt into their
safety program all of the provisions of the partnership agreement. This additional reduction will
not apply to high gravity serious, willful, failure to abate or repeat citations. In cases where a
contractor’s total penalty reduction is 100 percent or more, the minimum penalty provisions of
OSHA’s FIRM will apply.
VIII. OSHA Inspections
- Complaint Investigations
This partnership provides for the immediate response to each allegation of a safety or health hazard
brought to an employer’s attention by any person. Upon finding that an allegation is valid, the
employer shall promptly abate the hazard. OSHA agrees that a copy of each non-formal complaint
related to the work at the site and filed with OSHA will be forwarded by fax or mail to the Bayfront
Convention Center and Sheraton Headquarters Hotel site office. In accordance with applicable law,
the identity of a complainant requesting confidentiality will not be revealed. Barton Malow Company
agrees to investigate these complaints, regardless of the employer involved and provide OSHA with a
written response as follows:
- non-formal complaints/referrals alleging a hazard: 24 hours
Failure to meet this time frame, or providing a response determined by OSHA to be inadequate, will
place the complaint/referral outside the scope of this partnership and OSHA will respond as it would
to any complaint of a similar nature.
- Other Investigations
OSHA personnel will continue to conduct investigations under local and national emphasis programs,
workplace complaints, referrals, fatalities, catastrophes, other accidents or significant events,
and will investigate contractors whose employees are exposed to or are creating plain view hazards
at partnering worksites. These investigations will be conducted outside of this partnership
agreement in accordance with established OSHA enforcement policy. Violations documented during such
investigations may result in the issuance of citations and penalties.
IX. Employee Rights
This Partnership does not preclude employees and/or employers from exercising any right provided
under the OSH Act (or, for federal employees, 29 CFR 1960), nor does it abrogate any responsibility
to comply with rules and regulations adopted pursuant to the OSH Act.
X. Leveraging
This partnership seeks to leverage the resources of both Barton Malow Company and OSHA by
encouraging contractors to develop safety and health programs, implement them in an effective
manner, complete self inspections, and evaluate worksite conditions and near misses to prevent
accidents. By combining resources, OSHA expects to have a greater and more positive impact on safe
working conditions at this site than could be achieved otherwise.
XI. Evaluation
A joint evaluation of the partnership will be prepared annually by the partners using Appendix D.
The evaluation will review the success of the partnership, lessons learned, and changes that will be
made to meet the goals of the partnership.
XII. Termination
This agreement will terminate fourteen (14) months from the date of the signing or upon completion
of the Bayfront Convention Center and Sheraton Headquarters Hotel. If either OSHA or Barton Malow
Company wishes to withdraw its participation prior to the established termination date, the
agreement will terminate upon receiving a written notice of the intent to withdraw from either
signatory.
OSHA will terminate the partnership if the participating employer is issued a citation related to
workplace hazards which resulted in a fatality.

APPENDIX A
Partnership Fact Sheet |
A strategic partnership agreement has been developed jointly by the United
States Department of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration Erie Area Office (OSHA),
and Barton Malow Company. The common objective and goal of the program is to develop a
contractor/government partnership that encourages all construction contractors to improve their
safety and health performance, assist them in doing that, strive for the elimination of serious
accidents in the construction industry, and to recognize those contractors with exemplary safety and
health programs. The specific impetus behind the agreement is to provide a safe and healthful work
environment for workers engaged in construction activities for the project.
Expected outcomes of this partnership include: developing criteria for a model multi-employer
worksite safety and health program which specifically identifies the responsibilities of each
subcontractor; making safety and health materials available to all subcontractors onsite; planning
for safety and health in all aspects of the project; providing visible safety and health leadership;
achieving participant recordable illness and injury rates below the national average for the
construction industry; and focusing OSHA enforcement activity on those contractors and
subcontractors who have little or no regard for the safety and health of their workers.
The agreement provides incentives to contractors and subcontractors who voluntarily improve their
safety and health performance. Incentives will include special recognition from OSHA and focused
enforcement efforts by OSHA and consideration for additional good faith penalty reductions.
This agreement is consistent with OSHA’s long-range effort to develop a contractor/government
partnership approach to safety management. It allows for better use of OSHA resources and for
innovation in safety management, and it encourages more participation in the safety process by each
stakeholder.
