Recently a driver lost control of a tug operating in the South Bag Room. The rear end of the tug slid as the driver corrected, striking a safety bollard and then rolling forward making impact with a structural wall.

Fortunately the driver was not injured despite the fact the individual was not wearing a seat belt at the time of the incident. The safety bollard and wall suffered some damage as a result of the impact.

Factors:• Driver inexperience• Operating

characteristics• Speed• Wet tires • Distraction

Lessons learned:• Slow down! MAX

speed 5 MPH.• Do not drive

equipment you feel is unsafe or your not comfortable with.

• Adjust driving for conditions – wet pavement, etc.

• Eliminate distractions –focus on your driving.

And don’t forget… to buckle up!

RIC Public Safety will conduct a seat belt safety blitz day in October… details to come.

The federal government proposed a $1.57 million fine on the city of Chicago after officials at O’Hare International Airport failed to follow safety procedures before a regional jet skidded off a snowy runway and damaged its landing gear.The Chicago Department of Aviation didn’t follow its plan for snowy and icy conditions last Nov. 11, the Federal Aviation Administration said on Thursday. Numerous crews on airliners had reported trouble braking after landing, at which time landings should have been limited and other safety actions taken, the FAA said in a press release.

RIC ATC ZERO!

Memorandum of Understanding developed between ARFF, Airport Operations, and Airport Police that details procedures when RIC Air Traffic declares an ATC Zero condition:• Communicate air traffic status to

management, airline management and stakeholders.

• Suspend non-essential vehicle operations on the movement area.

• Initiate a “watch officer” position at the Fire Station.

• Coordinate with FAA Potomac TRACON and Regional Operations Center.

• Increase perimeter patrols and monitor airfield operations including arriving and departing traffic.

On July 15, 2020, the Virginia Safety and Health Codes Board adopted an Emergency TemporaryStandard, Infectious Disease Prevention: SARS-CoV-2 Virus That Causes COVID-19 16VAC25-220(“Emergency Temporary Standard” or “ETS”), to protect employees and employers from the spread ofCOVID-19. This new standard is intended to keep Virginians safe and healthy at work, customersconfident in the safety of Virginia’s business establishments, and employers open for business. Afterpublication in the Richmond Times-Dispatch, the ETS went into effect on July 27, 2020.

In accordance with Virginia Code § 40.1-22(6)(a) or §2.2-4011, this standard shall apply to everyemployer, employee, and place of employment in the Commonwealth of Virginia within the jurisdictionof the VOSH program as described in §§ 16VAC25-60-202 and 16VAC25-60-303.

Foot injuries

The Hazards Affecting Your Employees’ Foot SafetySafety leaders need to actively promote foot safety in the workplace to ensure worker safety and productivity. Kevan Orvitz | Aug 21, 2018

Many jobs require employees to constantly lift, move and work with heavy objects, all while standing for long periods of time. When all of these factors are coupled, it can result in potentially fatal injuries that start with the feet and work their way up the body, affecting knees, hips and backs.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are more than 53,000 foot injuries per year leading to missed work days. This means that on average, 4.8 individuals per 10,000 full-time workers are missing work due to foot injuries. There are several factors that can cause foot-related injuries, which impede employee productivity, safety and health and wellness.

SLIPS, TRIPS AND FALLSAccording to the National Safety Council, slips, trips and falls in the United States alone resulted in 44.5 million injuries, costing companies $967.9 billion dollars. These statistics remind us that employers must be able to identify the factors that cause these injuries, as well as how to combat and prevent them.

Tripping over Pre-Installed Anti-Fatigue Mats: A very common cause of trips is workers stumbling over anti-fatigue floor mats. Many employers provide these mats as a source of comfort for their workers that have to stand for long periods of time. While the gesture is ergonomically thoughtful, the bulky build of the mats often causes employees to trip while moving throughout the workspace. A quick and easy solution for this is to replace the mats with personal anti-fatigue insoles. Not only do insoles provide 360-degree support with dual layer memory foam and increased comfort, but they are much more practical. Anti-fatigue matting can be expensive to install, maintain, clean and replace, especially when you have a large workspace.

SLIPS, TRIPS AND FALLS

Lack of Traction: Some people may not know the importance of a good work boot and could be coming into work with improper shoes. Many slips are caused by a lack of traction between one’s shoe and the floor.

SENSE OF INVINCIBILITYMany individuals think that workplace injuries may never happen to them, which is why foot safety attire is often overlooked. These are the individuals that also often forgo wearing their foot safety attire because they never think twice about getting injured and think it couldn’t happen to them. For those that tend to avoid wearing the recommended work boots, steel-toe overshoes, puncture resistant insoles, or rubber boots when needed, there are a few tactics to ensure everyone complies with foot safety regulations.

Foot injuries are more common among the workforce than we might think; therefore, it is crucial to provide workers sufficient foot protection to ensure everyone is practicing safety on a daily basis. It is on managers and supervisors to actively promote foot safety through efforts such as insole programs, mandatory safety training, required breaks, and making sure workers are always in the required PPE when performing dangerous on-site duties. EHSDr. Kevan Orvitz is a veteran podiatrist and the founder of MEGAComfort, a workplace health and wellness company.

Some hazards to consider…

Contaminated surfaces (wet, slick, icy)Transitions between surfaces (carpet to tile)Uneven surfaces (changes in elevations)Crush (broken bones)Severe cold (frostbite)Sharp or pointed objects (abrasions/punctures)Trip hazards

Think about your job. What hazards do you face? What footwear features would help protect you? How can we promote footwear as PPE to our associates?
