1. INTRODUCTION“Industrial safety is defined as policies and protections

put in place to ensure plant and factory worker protection

from hazards that could cause injury.”

“Industrial Accidents are caused by chemical,

mechanical, civil, electrical, or other process failures

due to accident, negligence or incompetence, in an

industrial plant which may spill over to the areas outside

the plant causing damage to life and property.”

• Electrical failure

• Cutting and

welding

• Open flame

• Poor

housekeeping

• Chemical

• Runaway

reaction.

1.1. CAUSES OF ACCIDENTS IN AN

INDUSTRY

• Loss of life / injuries

• Impact on livestock

• Damage to Flora/fauna

• Environmental Impact

• Financial losses to industry.

1.2 Major Consequences:

1.3. SOME EXAMPLES OF INDUSTRIAL

ACCIDENTGASOLENE TANK FIRE- South East Asia 2000

Bhopal Gas Tragedy • Worst industrial disaster in history

• 2,000 people died on immediate

aftermath

• Another 13,000 died in next fifteen

years

• 10-15 persons dying every month

• 520,000 diagnosed chemicals in

blood causing different health

complications

• 120,000 people still suffering from

o Cancer

o Tuberculosis

o Partial or complete blindness,

o Post traumatic stress disorders,

o Menstrual irregularities

• Rise in spontaneous abortion and

stillbirth

1.4. ACCIDENT PREVENTATION

• Physical

Protection

• Educational

Protection

2.INDUSTRIAL SAFETY

MANAGEMENTSYSTEM“Safety management system” means a system which provides

safety management in an enterprise.

2.1.1 Safety policy

2.1.2 A structure to assure implementation of the

commitment to safety and health at work

2.1.3 Training to equip personnel with knowledge

to work safely and without risk to health

2.1.4 In-house safety rules to provide instruction

for achieving safety management objectives

2.1.5 A programme of inspection to identify hazardous conditions

and for the rectification of any such conditions at regular intervals.

2.1The elements of a safety management system

3.SAFETY ORGANIZATION:-

The organization of safety on the construction

site will be determined by the size of the

worksite Safety and health duties should be

specifically assigned to certain persons.

Safety organization and management must cover all aspects

of the employer’s or the contractor’s operations

4 MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT SAFETY5.1. Key principles of machinery and equipment safety

4.1.1.Mechanical hazards:Hazard

• Rotating shafts, pullies, sprockets and

gears

• Hard surfaces moving together

Crushing

• Sharp edge – moving or

stationary

• Cable or hose connections

Risk

• Entanglement

• Crushing

• Cutting or

puncturing

• Slips, trips and

falls e.g. oil leaks)Risk control of mechanical hazards

Fences, barriers, guards and

interlocked gates separate people from

the hazardous action of machinery and

equipment.

CNC Lathe: Substituting a centre lathe with

a CNC lathe (Computer Numeric Control) is an

example of improved risk control of machinery

and equipment through improvement in design.

4.1.2. Non-mechanical hazards:

• Dust

• Explosive or flammable atmospheres

• Heat (radiated or conducted)

• High intensity light (laser,)

• Heavy metals (lead, cadmium)

• Steam

• Ionising radiation (x-rays, microwaves)

• Mist orfumes

Hazard Risk

• Noise• Ignition sources

• Molten materials• Chemicals

• Pressurised fluids and gases

• Electrical

Risk control of non-mechanical

hazards

Gloves.Ear muffs.

Particle half

face respirator.Safety glasses.

Welding mask.4.1.3.Access hazards

• installation or removal

– complete access from every area may be required, and involve

disconnection or connection of services such water, air, pipes,

installation of electrical cable to switch board, etc.

• operation

– access for set-up, operation and adjustment.

• maintenance, repair, cleaning, alteration or adaptation

– access to remote areas may be required.

Temporary mobile platform.

Risk control of access hazards

Mobile work platform with fall arrest harness.

5. SAFETY OF WORKER6.1. Personal protective

equipment (PPE)6.2. Eye & Foot

protection

6.3. Washing facilities

6.ROLL OF AN ENGINEER IN

INDUSTRIAL SAFETYSafety engineers set up standards of safe speeds, safe plant

layout, safe methods of machine operation, and safe design of

the machine itself. They devise guards and other protective

equipment to be used in operations.

7. USE OF TECHNOLOGY IN SAFETY OF AN

INDUSTRY

Optimized machine and system

Safety with just one scanner Small size, flexible

switched warning

fields and protective fields:

Perfect vertical access control

With “contour as reference“.

Automated guided systems in highly

automated environments – the S300

as a reliable personnel protection

device in the direction of travel.

8. CONCLUSION:

8.1. SAFTEY RULES IN AN INDUSTRY:-

1 High-Risk Situations

2 Traffic

3 Body Mechanics and Tools

5 Protective Equipment

4 Lifting Operations

6 Powered Systems

7 Work at Height

8 Change Management
