INTRODUCTION Accidents take place due to unsafe practices and unsafe working facilities. Hence by continuous and vigilant efforts, accidents can be minimized to a very great extent. The most important point in unsafe actions and unsafe mechanical or physical conditions are the immediate causes of accidents. The main drive force behind Safety movement is that accidents are expensive. Substantial savings can be achieved by preventing them. The Health and Safety Manual forms the basis of the project Health and safety program covers the health and safety philosophy and regulations of the company. It also covers the method and system of work to be adopted on the project in accordance with the contract general provision. The Health and Safety Manual has been prepared to ensure the safety of people, equipment and materials to protect the environment. It is considered the minimum standard necessary to achieve the goal of accident prevention and it also requires whole hearted participation from higher officials to the worker level.

Page 11 of 29


Main areas in particular are:

Distribution of materials Installation of materials Working at height Scaffolding

Risk Assessment A risk assessment is the systematic identification of potential hazards in the work place as a first step of controlling the possible risks involved. A hazard is anything that has the potential to cause harm. A risk is the likelihood of someone being exposed to that hazard and harmed as a result. Risk assessment must be in place for all operations. The risk assessment should assess the risk that may be present in all works, activities and may identify particular area for more detailed specific assessments. Risk assessments are important for two main reasons 1. The process is a fundamental part of National Law 2. It manages potential dangers in the work place A safe system of work

A safe system of work is a considered method of working that takes proper account of the potential hazards to employees and to any others having access to work site. Before a safe system is drawn up for a particular operation the potential hazard should be identified and reduced to the greatest extent practicable.

FIRST AID 1. Where there are less than 50 employees at each site, the contractor must then ensure that

an appointed first aider is present to take charge of the situation if a serious injury or major illness occurs. An appointed first aider is someone of with experience and training in first aid who should be able to handle an emergency, summon help (call ambulance) and also be responsible for any first-aid equipment.

Where there are more than 50 employees including sub-contractor employees, the contractor shall ensure the availability of a full time trained first aider in each site.

2. The telephone numbers of Hospitals or ambulances and police shall be conspicuously pasted. 3. First aid box shall be placed in a clearly identified and readily accessible location. The

contents shall be protected from dampness and dust.



Page 12 of 29


4. Where there are 250 or more persons at work, a suitable staffed and equipped first aid

room shall be provided and maintained. 5. The provision of first aid facilities shall meet the requirements specified in the EPSS (

Environmental Protection and Safety Section ) technical guideline. 6. All first aid cases shall be recorded in the accident register and shall be readily available.

therefore general cleanliness and good house keeping are important. b) Electrical Equipments Electrical defects due to poor maintenance of cables, wires, switches, lamps, and hot elements can cause fire accidents. Electrical siring and equipment for light or power purposes shall be installed in compliance with the requirements of electrical rules applicable in U.A.E. c) Storage

It is important that storage of materials is maintained in a classified and orderly fashion. Particular care should be taken that materials are not stored near moving machines, electrical supply boxes or a source of heat. d) Open Flames Burning materials like paper, cotton, clothes, dry leaves etc are some of the common sources to produce fire accidents. Similarly fire chambers welding, cutting etc. cause open flames, if not controlled properly results in fire accidents. e) Smoking When a cigarette is lightened near flammable material storage area, fire is possible, the lightened match stick can cause the fire accident.



Page 15 of 29


IF A FIRE OR ANY EMERGENCY DOES OCCUR a) Rescue anyone in immediate danger b) Be sure someone sounds the alarm to alert co-workers c) Call the Civil Defense d) Never take chances. Get out fast if there is a risk of injury. e) Know your fire emergency evacuation route and designated exterior assembly area for your work area f) Be mentally prepared to react to a fire or other emergency.

Color coding of Fire extinguishers Red colour for Soda acid or Water gas type Fire Extinguishers Red or Blue colour for Dry chemical powder type Fire Extinguishers Black colour for Carbon dioxide type Fire Extinguishers Cream colour for Foam type Fire Extinguishers Green colour for Halon vapourising liquid type fire extinguishers

Fire Extinguisher FIRE EXTINGUISHER USAGE a) Water jet :- This is suitable only for class “ A ” Fires. Direct the jet at the base of the flame and keep it moving across the area of fire. A fire spreading vertically should be attacked at its lowest point and followed upwards. Seek out any hot spots after the main fire is extinguished.



Page 17 of 29


b) Dry powder or Carbon Dioxide :- On fires involving either liquids in container or spilled liquids, direct the discharge towards the near edge of the fire and with a rapid sweeping motion, drive the fire towards the far edge until all the flames are extinguished. On fires in falling liquids, direct the discharge at the base of the flames and sweep upwards. c) Foam :- Direct the jet at an adjacent vertical surface above the level of burning liquid. This breaks the jet and allows the foam to build up and flow across the surface of liquid. Alternatively stand well back and with a gentle sweeping movement allow the foam to drop down and lie on the surface of the liquid. d) Halon Vapourising liquid :- Same as for dry powder but the fumes from these extinguishers are toxic and should not be inhaled. This limits their use in confined spaces. Areas where they are supposed to be used should be well ventilated e) For class “ E ” Fire :- Usage is same as above.when the fire is in electrical equipment, direct the discharge straight at the fire or if the equipment is enclosed, direct the discharge into any opening. Figure given below shows how to use a Fire Extinguisher . .

SAFETY IN THE USE OF HAND TOOLS It has been estimated that accidents due to various types of tools account for nearly 10 % of total accidents. In any factory or industry, tools are used directly by workmen or they are used along with machines. Tools are generally of two types : 1. Hand tools 2. Portable power tools Hand Tools The common hand tools include chisels, hack saws, hammers, screw drivers, tongs, wrenches and spanners, torsion tools, material handling tools like crow bars, pinch bars, shovels, other tools such as files, cutters etc.



Page 22 of 29


Portable power tools They are either electrically operated or of pneumatic type. Common power tools are grinders, drillers, riveters, etc. Accidents due to wrong or unsafe way of using the tools a) Some workers use screw driver in place of chisel or they use wrenches in place of hammers. Some times a knife is used in place of a screw driver or a flat spanner is made use of in place of box or ring type spanner. All these wrong action of workmen lead to hand or finger injuries. b) Application of hammer against hard face or due to improper pressure applied on hammer results in accidents either to the workman himself or to his neighbours. c) Some workmen get finger or thumb injury when they use hack-saw. Such accidents take place since the worker keeps his finger very close to the blade. d) Chisels should be used in such a way that cutting is directed away from the body. If cutting is done towards the body, cut chips are likely to injure the worker. e) Some workmen carry the tools in their pockets, belts or in hand at the time of climbing a ladder. These situations result in dropping of tools causing accidents, not only to the workmen themselves but also to others in some cases f) Sometimes when workmen carelessly store or keep tools on unsafe place like scaffolds, platforms without toe boards etc, accidents take place due to dropping of tools. Accidents due to unsafe conditions or defective tools 1. Hammer accidents take place due to cracked or oily wooden handle or due to loose or

unsecured fitting of handle with the hammer head. 2. Chisel and punch accidents take place due to mushroomed head, blunt cutting edge or due

to their improper heat treatment sometimes when their body is too short for safe holding, hand injuries are possible.

3. File accidents are likely when their handles are loosely fitted or when their teeth are missing and clogged with metal chips. Similarly knife can cause accidents, if its handle is broken or too short and if its cutting edge is blunt.

4. Saws create accidents when their teeth are ground improperly and when saws are fitted too

tight or in the reverse direction. When saw handles are loose or cracked, accidents are possible.

5. When spanner and wrench are oily, then they slip and cause accident. When jaws are worn

out or the serration or teeth are rounded off accidents takes place. 6. Pliers and tongs cause accidents , when their handles are improperly shaped or when their

hinged points are cracked or too loose. Accidents also take place when the serrations are rounded off.



Page 23 of 29


Prevention of Hand tool Accidents The following precautions can reduce the number of tool accidents a) Hand tools must be periodically examined and maintained by competent persons b) They should be made of good quality materials c) They should be kept in cabinet, or racks when they are not in use d) The wooden handles of tools must be made of best quality and durable wood e) Only after receiving good training and safety instructions, he use of hand tools should be permitted by the workmen.

HOUSE KEEPING House keeping can be explained in a general way as “ A place for everything and everything in its place ”. Bad house keeping is responsible for about 15 % of total number of accidents in the industry. Following are the common types of accidents due to bad house keeping :

a) Slipping Accidents

It is common to see that workmen slip and fall due to oily floor due to wet floor conditions.

b) Falling Accidents If open tanks in level with the floor are not kept closed with suitable lids , people are likely to fall into them. Similarly wherever excavations are made for the sake of buildings, laying foundation work etc. and if such excavated pits are not protected with suitable barricade with warning boards, men are likely to fall into such pits resulting in falling accidents. c) Tripping Accidents If unwanted objects are scattered on the floor and walkways, they happen to cause tripping accidents for those who pass through such areas. Such accidents are more pronounced if the scattered materials are on the floor and walkways, they can’t be seen easily. d) Hitting Against accidents If some objects like steel rods, rails and other objects happen to protrude into the walkways, they cause the persons to hit against such object.



Page 24 of 29


e) Accident due to poor lighting

If materials or objects are stored on windows, they are likely to block the natural lighting available to the work area. In such areas, visibility becomes poor and the same is likely to cause accidents. Again, wherever natural lighting is not possible, adequate lighting with artificial means should be ensured so that the working area does not suffer due to the poor lighting. Accidents due to improper disposal of scrap or Effluents If the scrap, waste etc…. are not disposed off in a planned manner, they get accumulated in the yard, blocking useful moving space . In the same way, the materials in the yard should be properly stacked without causing blockage to the movement of vehicle etc … if rail rods are there inside the factory, then adequate area adjacent to both sides of the rail should be kept clear without any blockage. Environmental pollution due to untreated effluents, improper exhaust of smoke or gases etc …constitute bad house keeping and they led to the occupational diseases of the workers. Fire accidents due to bad house keeping Fire accidents can take place due to oily wastes, accumulation of dry leaves, faulty electrical wiring etc………. Steps to be taken for avoiding bad house keeping 1. Walkways, stairs, yard flooring etc….. should be kept clean and dry to avoid accidents due to slipping. Oil or grease accumulations etc. shall be removed promptly. 2. Stored materials, tools, equipment should not be kept blocking the pathways both inside and outside the working area to avoid tripping accidents. 3. Materials should be kept in bins in an orderly manner. Storage of flammables in bins should be avoided. Yard, floor storage be well defined with proper markings or signs. No protruding materials such as rods, nails etc ….shall be allowed to infringe the moving areas. 4. Both natural and artificial lighting in adequate measures at all times, should be available in the working areas. There should be no blockage of lighting due to stored materials. 5. Accumulation of scrap, dust etc should be avoided. Disposal of effluents after proper chemical treatment , exhausting of smoke, fumes, gas etc …by proper exhaust arrangements, etc …. should be carried out as per statutory requirements. 6. Incinerators located at marked places will help the burning away of the unwanted rubbish such as dried leaves, oily waste etc…..

ELECTRICAL SAFETY SAFETY IN USE OF ELECTRICITY, DANGERS FROM ELECTRICITY The dangers associated with use of electricity may be classified as follows :



Page 25 of 29


1. Injury from direct contact a) injury by shock b) injury from internal burns 2. Injury without current flow through body a) Direct burns from electric arcs, spattered molten metal etc. b) Radiation burns from very heavy arcs c) Physical injury from false starting of machine, failure of crane controls, explosion of switch gear etc : d) Injury from fire and explosion from electric ignition of flammable vapours gases, liquids and solids e) Eye injury from electric arcs ( e.g. welders eye flash ) 3. Injury from current flow induced in or near the human body by intense electro magnetic fields. a) Injury from elevation of whole body temperature b) Local injury such as cataract formation in the eye c) Burns due to metallic objects in close contact with local parts of the body Capacity and protection of conductors All apparatus and conductors should be of sufficient size and power for the work they are intended to do. All conductors of electricity should be covered with insulating material and further protected wherever necessary to prevent danger or they should be so placed or enclosed as to prevent danger. Joints and connections Electrical joints and connections should be of proper construction as regards to conductivity, insulation, mechanical strength and protection. Importance of safety equipment in design and use of switches, switch fuses, circuit breakers and isolating line. 1. Sufficient capacity for making and breaking contacts 2. Cover for switch 3. Handle spindle should be close fit in the hole in the cover to prevent injury from arcs inside.



Page 26 of 29


4. “ON” and “OFF” position in switches and circuit breakers should be clearly marked. . 5. Ample space between opposite poles of double and multiple air break switches and circuit breakers. 6. Should make and maintain good contact on being operated without any special skill or manipulation. 7. Switches and circuit –breakers should be of such construction that they cannot be left in partial contact, that there is speedy breaking of contacts when operated to off position. there should be other extra means of controlling the arc where necessary. 8. Handle should be of sufficient size to withstand the effort required to operate. Protective Earthing Earthing of the conductors is an additional precautions which may be necessary to ensure that they are not charged inductively or by any other chance Earth is to connect the general mass of earth in such a manner as will ensure at all times and an immediate discharge of electrical energy without danger and to allow sufficient current to flow to blow fuses or operate protective devices and thereby disconnect faulty apparatus. Working space and means of access Adequate working space and means of access free of danger should be provided for all apparatus which have to be worked by any person and sufficient lighting should be provided. Personal Protective Equipment Portable or permanent insulation stands or screens, boots, gloves or other suitable means should be used whenever necessary to prevent danger. Competency of personnel Only authorized and competent persons should undertake any work where technical knowledge or experience is required to avoid danger. Cable and connections Connection of the portable apparatus to the system should be by efficient permanent joints or connections. The cable should be reinforced at the place where it enters the plug with stout rubber tubing or metallic spiral.
