6 3.0 Definitions EH&SMS Snap-on s established Corporate Environmental, Health and Safety Management System. SEQ Safety, Environment and Quality Group. Business Segment The three primary entities within Snap-on Incorporated. They include Transportation, Commercial and Industrial, and Diagnostics. Business Unit Distinct groups within the business segments. Operating Unit A facility or group of facilities within a business unit. Tier I Highest level of EH&S management system documentation, establishes corporate conformance with the international ISO standard. Prepared by SEQ. Tier II Next level of EH&S management system documentation, includes standards that establish specific facility level requirements, as well as other documentation that provide information for the facilities use. Also includes internal auditing procedures. Prepared by SEQ. Tier III Documentation written by the operating unit or facility specific to their operations. 4.0 Environmental, health and safety management system requirements 4.1 General requirements Snap-on Incorporated has established and maintains an environmental, health and safety management system that is based upon regulatory compliance and continual improvement. The core elements are described in the remainder of Section 4.0 of this document. 4.2 Policy statement Snap-on Incorporated commits itself to as its number one objective. Snap-on s Quality Policy is located in this document immediately following the table of contents. 4.3 Planning EH&S aspects and impacts The inherent hazards associated with a process are mitigated through established operational controls (SEQ Standards). By following these controls the Business Unit reduces the incident rating, and therefore minimizes the overall risk. Listed below are the relative hazard ratings. The incident rating is determined considering existing operational controls and company experience. High (H): The activity has substantial potential (Relative Hazard) for adverse impacts or consequences and/or a high probability of occurrence (Incident). Moderate (M): The activity has moderate potential (Relative Hazard) for adverse impacts or consequences and/or a moderate probability of occurrence (Incident). EHSSystem.doc Page 2 of 23 Rev. 03/21/06

7 Low (L): The activity has negligible potential (Relative Hazard) for having adverse impacts or consequences on the environment or safety and health and/or low probability of occurrence (Incident). Activities with a low hazard rating are not listed. Examples of these activities include: most clerical tasks, housekeeping tasks, order picking in DC s, etc. Taking into account the relative hazard and incident ratings, and the company s activities, products and services, the following tables list the processes that are covered by the EH&S management system. It is the responsibility of each facility and/or business unit to determine and document which of the following EH&S aspects and impacts apply to their location(s). EH&S aspects Protection of associate safety & health Control and enhancement of atmospheric air Protection of surface and ground water supplies Management of solid and hazardous wastes Hazardous materials transportation Environmental releases and response to releases Miscellaneous control of hazardous substances Pollution prevention Environmental impacts Global warming Ozone depletion Acid rain Toxic releases Ambient air quality Ground water contamination Surface water contamination POTW impacts Ground water contamination Surface water contamination Drinking water contamination Environmental releases to the land, air and water Contamination of land, air and water Ecological damage Contamination of land, air and water Ecological damage Reducing ecological and environmental impacts Summary of EH&S Aspects/Impacts Health & safety impacts (hazards/risks) Employee exposure Physical hazards Ergonomics Operational controls (SEQ standards) 64.01, 64.02, 64.51, 64.52, 64.54, 65.56, Community exposures 64.04, 64.21, Impaired drinking water supplies Direct exposures Drinking water contamination Community exposure Personnel exposure Exposure to medical and emergency response 64.02, 64.04, 64.21, , 64.04, 64.21, 64.31, 64.51, , 64.51, Personal exposures 64.02, 64.51, Personal exposure to PCBs, asbestos, etc. Reduced personal exposures 64.02, 64.31, 64.51, , Monitoring/ measurement required IH monitoring Instrument calibration Ergonomic evaluation Employee exams (where applicable) Chromium Emission Standard Air permit monitoring and recordkeeping Wastewater effluent Storm water monitoring Pollution control Hazard waste analysis Waste profiles TSD audits Remediation monitoring TCLP analysis Waste profiles Waste Minimization Plan or activities EHSSystem.doc Page 3 of 23 Rev. 03/21/06

17 Additionally, associates should be involved in the development of health and safety programs at the operational level. (Ref. SEQ64.01 and SEQ64.51) Responsibilities for receiving, documenting and responding to request and inquiries from external interested parties regarding EH&S impacts and the EH&S management system lies with the Director, Safety, Environment and Quality Group. A log of communications with interested external parties will be maintained by the SEQ Group. In North America, facilities must consult the SEQ Group to determine whether the facility or the SEQ Group will respond to the external party s inquiry Documentation The primary purpose for the maintenance of Environmental, Health and Safety documents and records is to document Snap-on's compliance with relevant regulations and/or laws and for tracking overall program performance. Recordkeeping requirements and document maintenance will apply to each operating facility. The documentation program will also aid in determining the scope, nature and objectives of the overall corporate policy and assist management personnel in meeting obligations under this EH&S Management System. This section is to provide guidance and direction to meet the general needs of those individuals who are involved in EH&S management within the Corporation with regard to recordkeeping and documentation. The Director, Safety, Environment and Quality Group will be responsible for oversight and administration of this program. Documentation under the EH&S Management System refers to both documents and records as defined herein. A document is a policy, instruction or plan containing rules and information on how the Environmental, Health and Safety System functions, how activities and tasks are to be carried out and how to evaluate and assess performance. A record, on the other hand, is a written statement of facts pertaining to a specific event, person, process or outcome at a given time. A document will change over time, but not a record. Environmental, Health and Safety Program documentation may include, but is not limited to, all of the following records and documents. EHSSystem.doc Page 13 of 23 Rev. 03/21/06

The first part of this manual defines the scope of Snap-on s operations, details environmental and safety aspects and impacts, and generally addresses all elements of ISO14001 and OHSAS This portion of the manual is the highest level document in the EH&S management system and is analogous to a quality manual in an ISO9000 management system. Since it applies to all locations within Snap-on Incorporated, business units and facilities do not have to prepare this level of documentation. The next level of documentation is the SEQ standards. These standards detail the regulatory and other internal Snap-on requirements for environmental and health and safety practices. All Snap-on Incorporated locations must comply with the standards that apply to them. Each operating facility is then responsible for implementing applicable SEQ requirements. Written programs are prepared to document these requirements at the facility level.. (See table in Section ) Records are maintained as previously specified Control of documents Purpose It is the purpose of this section to establish Snap-on Incorporated's policy with regard to the creation, use and control of environmental, health and safety documentation as identified in Section of this manual. Documentation identified in Section is important to the overall EH&S Management System performance because it: EHSSystem.doc Page 15 of 23 Rev. 03/21/06

20 a) Serves as reference in making control equipment acquisition decisions. b) Documents system performance. c) Verifies that the Corporation is meeting its ethical and legal obligations with regard to protection of associate health, public health and the environment. d) Establishes a means to achieving the Corporate EH&S policy Document preparation Documents/records, including a Master List of Documents, must be prepared by appropriate business unit or facility personnel. The SEQ Group and Business Unit Coordinator shall serve as a resource to the operating units Review, approval and control of documentation Documents and records must be reviewed and approved by appropriate business unit or facility personnel as needed to ensure continued suitability, including compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and any other internal requirements. Moreover, this review must take place at least biennially and must be documented. Obsolete documentation must be removed from use Documents and records of the Safety, Environment and Quality Group The Director, Safety, Environment and Quality Group has the Issue and Approval Authority for the Environmental, Health and Safety Management System Manual of Practice Operational control The SEQ Group has performed an assessment and has identified all processes and activities that need to be evaluated and controlled within the framework of this management system (Section 4.3). The Corporation has gained operational control through the issuance, execution and strict adherence to SEQ Standards which are a significant part of the management scheme. Additionally, each operating unit exercises control over its activities by adhering to process work instructions as appropriate. Operational units are audited periodically to document their conformance to the principles of conduct, the SEQ Standards and the stated goals of this management system. Snap-on Incorporated, as part of its pollution prevention program, takes every opportunity to purchase goods and services which environmental friendly. It conveys its policy with regard to these issues to both suppliers and contractors alike. It does not, however, support the philosophy that it should police suppliers and contractors in an effort to impose our value system upon their organization. However, we will not do business with a known polluter or an organization that is insensitive to associate safety and health. Notwithstanding this non-intrusive policy in dealing with our suppliers, Snap-on does have in place a mentoring and community outreach program on EH&S matters (SEQ64.81 & 64.82). Snap-on regards the following as essential components of it s EH&S Program. a) Management commitment and associate participation EHSSystem.doc Page 16 of 23 Rev. 03/21/06

SEQ Chemical Hygiene and Safety - Annual Industrial Hygiene Surveys by SEQ Group. Corporate industrial hygiene monitoring equipment calibration records will be documented and maintained by the SEQ Group. Primary calibration standards will be calibrated annually through certified external sources traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Primary calibration equipment will be used to internally calibrate secondary calibration standards and other equipment. SEQ Standards on Machine Safety. SEQ64.61 & Appendix C - TSD audits by internal resources of the SEQ Group, internal facility EH&S system audit reports to management and third party audits to verify ISO conformance of the EH&S system. Typically a facility is considered substantially in conformance if it meets or exceeds 85% compliance with applicable requirements of the Corporate EH&S Management System. SEQ Annual report to stakeholders on environmental performance fashioned after the USEPA Environmental Leadership Program (ELP) requirement Evaluation of legal compliance The internal audit process and associated guidelines and checklists shall be used for the evaluation of legal compliance Non-conformity and preventive and corrective action Snap-on Incorporated documents nonconformance and needed corrective/preventive actions in several ways including corrective action requests, audit reports, etc. Operating facilities must formally respond to these corrective actions. Adherence to the preventive and corrective action requirements is normally assessed during annual management system audits. To maintain the effectiveness of the corrective and preventive action process, the System audit findings shall be communicated to all facilities for appropriate action, if necessary, and prevention of reoccurrences Control of Records See Section of this document Internal audit The purpose of performing internal EH&S Management System Audits is to verify that operating units are carrying out activities and processes consistent with the EH&S Manual of Practice and are compliant with applicable legal requirements. Conformance with the EH&S Management System is assessed using an audit cycle consisting of an on-site internal audit and a follow-up on corrective actions taken. Dependent upon the results of these activities, and considering the auditor s judgment as to the overall EH&S circumstances at the facility, a conformance and certification decision is made. Facility EH&S Management System internal audits shall be conducted by or under the direction of the Business Unit SEQ Coordinator on an annual basis. EHSSystem.doc Page 19 of 23 Rev. 03/21/06
