Controlling Hazards 2

A control measure is necessary in any workplace to prevent the hazards around the worker and the employer so we have to classification the hazards from the greater hazardous to the less hazardous and there is some work mistake is not accepted because it might cause a serious danger for the people in the workshop.

In an engineering workshop there are many possible hazards to take care for, so that the employer should be alert for any hazard could maybe happen.

It is a necessity that workers know the importance of cleaning the workplace. For example, drop some oil on the floor and leave it without cleaning can causes injure and harm for the people who passed from the oily area so that the employer should tell his employees about the necessary of cleaning the workplace floor.

In every engineering workshop there is the pillar drill and the pillar drill might be a hazard if we didn’t take health and safety into account. For example, the employer should make a Wide distance for the worker who working with the pillar drill and the yellow line could help in order to protect the employee from any push by mistake.

The fires is a normal hazard and it could be happen in everywhere specially in engineering workplace because they use flammable material, so that the employer should ensure that is the fire alarm and the fire exits are ready to use in any emergency moment.

When there is too much wires connecting to the machines that is calls to make a specific area to the wires extension because sometimes the worker or visitors can step on the wire if the wires are scattered.

When appointment of a new employee the employer should make for him/her a training program to teach him/her the important of taking into account the health and safety and learn him/her how to prevent the hazards during he/she doing his/her job.

The personal protect equipment is a something maybe the employee could ignore it so the employer should insure that all the employees are using the PPE correctly and they didn’t ignore this necessary to protect him/herself.
