These dates are not imported using the SDEF file.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”17407″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]The activities are grouped into several categories as you can see from the blue tiles at the top of the screen.
- The tile named Activities Started or Finished Today is for activities that have an actual start and/or actual finish date that is the same as the daily report date
- Activities in Progress is for activities that have an actual start date, but no actual finish date
- Activities Not Started is for activities that do not have an actual start date
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Activities Not Finished is for activities that do not have both actual start and actual finish dates. The list of activities corresponding to any of the categories can be seen by simply clicking anywhere in the corresponding blue tile. A filtered list of the category selected will be displayed in the bottom rows of RMS.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”17408″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]Note: Assumption is that the QC Rep on Site knows better than the scheduler the date which activities actually start and finish.
Select the activity and enter the date on the calendar popup. You can manually type in a date or click on the button on the right side of the field to open a calendar from which you can select the applicable date.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”17409″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]If you select a date other than the date of the report you are preparing, the activity will be reported on the corresponding daily report date.
If that daily report has already been completed and submitted, the report that the government has will not reflect this information. To update the report, ask your USACE Representative to return it to you for corrections.
Make the correction, sign, and resend.[/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Contractors Onsite” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:22|text_align:left|color:%23000000″ google_fonts=”font_family:Oswald%3A300%2Cregular%2C700|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][vc_column_text]Use the Contractors on Site selection to document the first and last days on which subcontractors are working at the jobsite.

As long as there was injury or damage to someone or something during performance of work related to the contract, it must be reported on the QC daily report.
The district in which you are working may also have additional reporting requirements. Be sure to discuss this with your USACE Representative during the Safety Coordination meeting and include the requirements in your Mishap Prevention Plan.
Additional reporting requirements can be found in the EM 385-1-1, Safety and Health Requirements Manual.
Reportable Mishaps: While all mishaps are reportable, not all mishaps are recordable. All mishaps meeting any one of the following criteria must also be reported on ENG Form 3394, which may be obtained from your USACE Representative. When a recordable mishap occurs, you should notify your USACE Representative immediately! Do not wait to complete and submit any forms.
A recordable mishap would be any mishap that:
- Resulted in any government employee or contractor lost-time injury, illness, or fatality
- Caused damage in excess of $1,000 to contractor property, including motor vehicles
- Involved a motor vehicle, regardless of whether injury, illness or fatality occurred
- Involved a contractor diving activity
Lost Time Mishaps are accidents in which the injury sustained by the employee resulted in a loss of productive work time.
Mishaps would be categorized as “lost time” only when the injured worker is unable to perform regular job duties, takes time off for recovery, or is assigned modified work duties while recovering.
Lost time injuries encompass both temporary injuries that keep the employee away from work for a day, to permanent disabilities and conditions that prevent him or her from ever returning to the job or performing the same work tasks.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”17418″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]Moving along to the Accident Reporting tile, it’s important to note that all mishaps are reportable, whether they occur on or off the jobsite.
