RULES FOR THE EMPLOYER—ORGANIZATION
§ 39.311. Interpretation and enforcement of rules.
(a) The employer shall furnish to each regular employe operating or working on electrical supply equipment, supply or signal lines, or hazardous electrical tests a copy of these safety rules for operation, or such of these provisions as apply to his work, either separately or incorporated in more comprehensive rule books, and shall take means to secure compliance of the employes with such provisions.
(b) If a difference of opinion arises with regard to the meaning of application of these provisions or as to the means necessary to carry them out, the decision of the employer or his authorized agent shall be final, subject to an appeal, if taken, to the regulative body having jurisdiction.
(c) Cases may arise where the strict enforcement of some particular rule will seriously impede the progress of the work in hand; in such cases the employe in charge of the work to be done and the employe in charge of that portion of the system on which the work is to be done may, with the consent of the chief operator concerned, make such temporary modification of the rule as will expedite the work without materially increasing the hazard.
(d) Many companies number their books of rules and require a receipt from each employe for his copy.
