Accident INVESTIGATIONS Whenever an accident occurs involving the equipment or personnel of a Supporting Party, the Protecting Party shall take immediate steps to notify the Supporting Party that an accident has occurred. As soon as practical, the Protecting Party shall initiate an investigation of the accident. A team made up of appropriate representatives from all affected agencies shall conduct the investigation. Costs for investigation personnel are Party-specific and will be borne by the sending Party. Other accident or incident investigation costs are the fiscal responsibility of the Party (ies) that has jurisdiction and/or investigative responsibility. The sharing of information between Parties on accident investigations and their findings and probable causes is a valuable tool for safety and must be encouraged.
Transportation of Accident Victims Transportation to the nearest physician or hospital for employees requiring medical care as a result of an on-the-job accident shall be at the expense of the Employer.
Post-Accident Testing All Employees Post-accident drug and alcohol testing may be conducted by the Employer for any employee when a work-related incident has occurred involving death, serious bodily injury or significant property/environmental damage, or the potential for death, serious bodily injury, or significant property/environmental damage, and when the employee’s action(s) or inaction(s) either contributed to the incident or cannot be completely discounted as a contributing factor. Referral for post-accident testing will be made in accordance with Subsection 22.5 C, above.
Casualty Damage 18.1 Tenant shall give immediate notice (by telephone, confirmed in writing) to Landlord of any damage caused to the Premises by fire or other casualty, and if Landlord does not elect to terminate this Lease as provided in Section 18.2, Landlord shall proceed with reasonable diligence and at its sole cost and expense to rebuild and repair the Building and/or the Premises, as the case may be, but Landlord shall not be obligated to expend for such rebuilding and repair any amount in excess of the amount of the insurance proceeds actually recovered by Landlord and made available by any Superior Lessor or Superior Mortgagee as a result of such loss.
18.2 If the Building or the Premises shall be destroyed or substantially damaged by a casualty not covered by Landlord’s insurance, or if 25% or more of the Premises is damaged or rendered untenantable by a casualty covered by Landlord’s insurance, or if the Premises are not affected but 25% of the Building or such portion of the Common Facilities as shall render the Premises or the Building untenantable is damaged or rendered untenantable, then in any such event Landlord may elect either to terminate this Lease or to proceed to rebuild and repair the Premises or that portion of the Building so damaged. Landlord shall give written notice to Tenant of such election within 90 days after the occurrence of such casualty, or within 30 days after the adjustment of the insurance settlement, whichever is later. In the event that such notice of termination shall be given, this Lease shall terminate as of the date provided in such notice of termination (whether or not the Term shall have commenced) with the same effect as if that date were the Expiration Date, without prejudice, however, to Landlord’s rights and remedies against Tenant under the terms of this Lease. If at any time prior to Landlord giving the aforesaid notice of termination or commencing the repair pursuant to Section 18.1, there shall be a Successor Landlord, such Successor Landlord shall have a further period of 60 days from the date of so taking possession to terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant and in the event that such a notice of termination shall be given, this Lease shall terminate as of the date provided in such notice of termination (whether or not the Term shall have been commenced) if Tenant is not occupying any portion of the Premises or otherwise as of the date provided in such notice, with the same effect as if that date were the Expiration Date, without prejudice, however, to Landlord’s rights against Tenant under the terms of this Lease.
18.3 Subject to the provisions of Section 18.1, Landlord’s obligation to rebuild and repair under this Article XVIII shall in any event be limited to restoring Landlord’s Work, as described in the Work Letter, to substantially the condition in which the same existed prior to the casualty, and to proceed, at the sole cost and expense of Tenant, to rebuild, repair and restore Tenant’s Work and any additional Improvements made by Tenant during the Term, all to substantially the condition existing prior to such casualty.
18.4 During the period from the occurrence of the casualty until Landlord’s repairs are completed, the Basic Rent payable pursuant to Article V and Additional Rent payable pursuant to Articles VI and VII shall be abated in that proportion which the Premises area rendered untenantable bears to the entire Premises area; provided, however, there shall be no abatement of any other charges or items of Additional Rent provided for herein to be paid by Tenant; and further provided, however, that should Tenant or anyone claiming through or under Tenant occupy a portion of the Premises during the period the repair work is taking place and prior to the date the Premises are no longer untenantable, the Rent allocable to such reoccupied portion, based upon the proportion which the reoccupied portion of the Premises bears to the total area of the Premises, shall be payable by Tenant from the date of such occupancy.
18.5 Landlord shall not the liable for any inconvenience or annoyance to Tenant or injury to the business of Tenant resulting in any way from any such damage by fire or other casualty or the repair thereof.
18.6 Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Article, if, by reason of any negligence or willful act on the part of Tenant or any of its employees, agents, licensees, invitees or contractors, either (a) Landlord or the Superior Lessor or the Superior Mortgagee shall be unable to collect all of the insurance proceeds (including rent insurance proceeds) applicable to damage or destruction of the Premises or the Building or the Project by fire or other casualty or (b) the Premises or the Building or the Project shall be damaged or destroyed or rendered completely or partially untenantable on account of fire or other casualty then, without prejudice to any other remedy which may be available against Tenant, the abatement of rent provided for in Section 18.4 shall not be effective to the extent of the uncollected insurance proceeds.
Smoke This peril means sudden and accidental damage from smoke, including the emission or puffback of smoke, soot, fumes or vapors from a boiler, furnace or related equipment. This peril does not include loss caused by smoke from agricultural smudging or industrial operations.
Sabotage Sabotage is of concern to all Parties involved on any work site and may affect safety, and therefore both the physical and mental well being of all persons on site. The Parties to this Agreement will not tolerate sabotage, and will ensure that any person/s responsible for such action is immediately dismissed. It is accepted that the relevant authorities may have to be notified, and provisions of the OH&S Act implemented.
FIRE AND CASUALTY DAMAGE If the Premises are so injured or damaged by fire or other cause as to be uninhabitable for more than 120 days, then the Tenant may terminate this Lease upon written notice to the Landlord. A total destruction of the Premises shall automatically terminate this Lease. If this Lease is not so terminated, then the Landlord shall diligently restore the damaged Premises at its sole cost and expense as soon as is reasonably practical, but in all events less than 120 days from the date of such damage or casualty, and if the Landlord fails to do so, then the Tenant may terminate this Lease by delivering written notice to the Landlord. The Tenant will be entitled to an abatement of Rent for the period of time that all or any portion of the Premises are not useable for the Tenant’s business due to such casualty based on the portion of the Premises that the Tenant is unable to use. If any such damage occurs before closing but after the Tenant has exercised its Option to Purchase, then the Tenant may, within 30 days after the date of such damage, by delivery of written notice to the Landlord, cancel and rescind the Tenant’s exercise of the Option to Purchase. Each of the Landlord and the Tenant hereby releases the other (and the other’s employees, officers, shareholders, directors, and members) from any and all liability or responsibility to the other or any claiming through or under them by way of subrogation or otherwise for any loss or damage to property caused by fire or any other perils which may be insurable in policies of insurance covering such property and required to be carried within this Lease, even if such loss or damage shall have been caused by the fault or negligence of the other party, or anyone for whom such party may be responsible. Each party shall cause its insurance policies to contain a clause or endorsement to the effect that such release shall not adversely affect or impair said policies or prejudice the right of the releasor to recover thereunder and to the effect that such insurer waives its rights of subrogation as to such released or waived claim.
Accidents If a death, serious personal injury or substantial property damage occurs in connection with CONTRACTOR’s performance of this Agreement, CONTRACTOR shall immediately notify Mendocino County Risk Manager's Office by telephone. CONTRACTOR shall promptly submit to COUNTY a written report, in such form as may be required by COUNTY of all accidents which occur in connection with this Agreement. This report must include the following information: (1) name and address of the injured or deceased person(s); (2) name and address of CONTRACTOR's sub-contractor, if any; (3) name and address of CONTRACTOR's liability insurance carrier; and (4) a detailed description of the accident and whether any of COUNTY's equipment, tools, material, or staff were involved.
Vandalism Or Malicious Mischief This peril does not include loss to property on the "residence premises", and any ensuing loss caused by any intentional and wrongful act com- mitted in the course of the vandalism or malicious mischief, if the dwelling has been vacant for more than 60 consecutive days immediately before the loss. A dwelling being constructed is not consid- ered vacant.
Hospitalization In the event an employee is hospitalized overnight, the employee will have access to their EIB accrual at the first day of absence due to the hospitalization. Same day surgery, if requiring five (5) or more days of recovery, may also be paid from the employee’s EIB account.
