Imminent Danger Situations. In the case of imminent danger situations, the persons reporting such situations shall make the reports in the most expeditious manner available. The employee has a right to decline to perform his or her assigned tasks because of a reasonable belief that, under the circumstances, the task poses an imminent risk of death or serious bodily harm, and that there is insufficient time to effectively seek corrective action through normal hazard reporting and abatement procedures. Management agrees to make every effort to ensure an appropriate response to imminent danger situations.

In accordance with 29 CFR 1960.2(u), the term "imminent danger" means any condition or practice in any workplace which is such that a danger exists which could reasonably be expected to cause death or serious physical harm immediately or before the imminence of such danger can be eliminated through normal procedures.

If the safety, health and environment personnel decide the condition does not pose an imminent danger, the instruction to return to work shall be in writing and contain a statement declaring the area or assignment to be safe.
