Various actions were introduced by airlines to reduce the chances of ground staff moving behind a running down jet engine. Some used 25% N2, others 5% N1, others turned off the anti-collision light switch 30 seconds after closing down the engines.

None of these were specifically Boeing initiated. That is why there has never been mention of these practices in any "official" Boeing checklist procedures. These are company decisions.
