Social impacts - does the project involve the following: (a) occupational safety issues; (b) health hazards; (c) involuntary land acquisition or displacement of third parties using land; (d) loss of the access to sources of income; (e) loss of physical and/or economic assets.
Appropriate project design: location, methods of construction, use of safe technologies during operation period, work timing, careful decommissioning, etc.
Projects which result in involuntary land acquisition or displacement of third parties using land; relocation or loss of shelter, loss of assets or access to assets, or loss of income sources or means of livelihood whether or not there is displacement will not be financed by the project.
Will the project assure non-deterioration of human health, occupational safety and non-disturbance of residents living near project area? If no, is it possible by applying proposed mitigation measures to reduce the project environmental and social impacts to admissible levels?
To ensure collective and individual protective measures (work clothes, masks, shoes), when needed.
To adhere established occupational safety requirements as well as simple rules, e.g.: water spaying twice a day during construction to avoid dust
ventilation of internal areas during and post construction
c) timing of work To conduct regular instructing of employees on health and occupational safety requirements
To restrict vehicle speeds and trough-traffic in residential areas, especially trucks, using signing and appropriate design
Work timing to minimize disturbance/ restrict construction to certain hours,
Restrict movement of hazardous materials in residential areas/ regulation of transportation of materials; apply any load restriction required during and post construction periods,
Disturbance and/or unrest of residents living near the project area and anticipated public concerns, e.g., project location, waste disposal sites, harmful emissions into environment, and aesthetic arrangement of constructedsites?
Public consultations and meetings should be held on regular basis to discuss community concerns and to take relevant actions.
Make the GRM accessible to the community members to file their concerns, complaints.
