Safe Conditions Whenever an employee reports a condition which the employee feels represents a violation of safety or health rules and regulations or which is an unreasonable hazard to persons or property, such conditions shall be promptly investigated. The appropriate administrator shall reply to the concern, in writing, if the employee's concern is communicated in writing.
Unsafe Conditions In accordance with 29 CFR § 1977, occasions might arise when an employee is confronted with a choice between not performing assigned tasks or subjecting himself/herself to serious injury or death arising from a hazardous condition at the workplace. If the employee, with no reasonable alternative, refuses in good faith to expose himself/herself to the dangerous condition, he/she would be protected against subsequent discrimination. The condition causing the employee's apprehension of death or injury must be of such a nature that a reasonable person, under the circumstances then confronting the employee, would conclude that there is a real danger of death or serious injury and that there is insufficient time, due to the urgency of the situation, to eliminate the danger by resorting to regular statutory enforcement channels. In addition, in such circumstances, the employee, where possible, must also have sought from his Employer, and been unable to obtain, a correction of the dangerous condition.
Safe Working Conditions The Employer undertakes to maintain office furniture, equipment, etc., in a practical and safe condition in order to avoid injury to employees or damage to their attire. Employees, for their part and in their own interest, are expected to advise the Employer of any such potentially injurious equipment.
SUSPENSIVE CONDITIONS 2.1 This entire AGREEMENT is subject to the registration of transfer of ownership of the PROPERTY to the EMPLOYER. In the event that the PROPERTY is not transferred within 6 (six) months from date of signing of this Agreement by the CONTRACTOR, the CONTRACTOR reserves the right to:
2.1.1 increase the CONTRACT SUM, based on the current prices for the building materials, and the CONTRACTOR shall notify the EMPLOYER in writing of such increased cost and the EMPLOYER may then, at his/her option, cancel this agreement by providing written notice of cancellation to the CONTRACTOR within 5 (five) DAYS of receiving written notice from the CONTRACTOR in respect of the increased cost. Should written notice of cancellation not be forthcoming within the aforesaid period, the CONTRACTOR and the EMPLOYER shall proceed with the AGREEMENT at the increased CONTRACT SUM and the EMPLOYER shall be obliged to pay the increase in the CONTRACT SUM to the CONTRACTOR within 21 (twenty one) DAYS of receiving written notice from the CONTRACTOR in respect of the increased cost; or
2.1.2 cancel this AGREEMENT and the parties shall have no claim of whatsoever nature against each other.
2.2 This AGREEMENT is subject further to the EMPLOYER being offered a loan to be secured by a mortgage bond over the PROPERTY and improvements in the amount reflected in Schedule B or such lesser amount as the EMPLOYER may accept, within 30 (thirty) DAYS of the date of the CONTRACTOR’s signature of this AGREEMENT, which period may be extended in the CONTRACTOR’s sole discretion. Should no amount be inserted in the relevant field in the Schedule B, then the suspensive condition contained in this clause will not apply. In the event that the suspensive condition contained in this clause is not fulfilled, this AGREEMENT will lapse and the parties shall have no claim of whatsoever nature against each other.
