An effective small business safety program requires commitment from all levels, identification and control of workplace hazards, and training employees to work safely.
The document provides a sample accident prevention program for a restaurant that can be customized for a specific company. It includes sections on management safety policies, employee responsibilities, safety training procedures, hazard communication programs, incident reporting forms, and other resources to help establish an effective workplace safety program. Employers are encouraged to modify the sample as needed to fit their individual business operations and promote a culture of safety.
The document discusses health, safety, and security in the workplace. It defines these terms and explains their importance. Several types of accidents and their causes are described. Accident prevention methods include identifying risks, safety training, inspections, and record keeping. The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 established requirements for employers to ensure workplace safety. Effective safety management involves leadership, employee involvement, data analysis, motivation, and innovation. Preventive health programs aim to reduce risks and encourage healthy lifestyles.
All employers have a legal responsibility to manage health and safety in the workplace. This includes ensuring a risk assessment is completed to identify hazards and implement control measures.
Risk assessments must be carried out by a competent person with the necessary training, skills, experience and knowledge to identify hazards, determine the likelihood of harm, and decide on suitable controls.
The risk assessment process requires identifying potential hazards, evaluating the risks, recording the findings, and regularly reviewing and updating the assessment. Employers must provide instruction and information to employees so they understand the risks and can work safely.
This document provides a summary of key aspects of risk management for a company, including safety programming, employee health and wellness, claims management, education and communication, evaluation and monitoring, and benchmarking. It discusses the importance of these areas and offers recommendations. Specific topics covered include case studies of workplace incidents, indirect costs of incidents, workers' compensation insurance and experience modification rates, components of an effective safety plan, types of wellness programs, employee screening, and how to effectively benchmark performance.
This document discusses the concepts and principles of Continuous Safety Improvement (CSI) and how they relate to Total Quality Management. It provides an overview of two workshop goals: 1) becoming familiar with the origins and contributions of the Total Quality Management movement and W. Edwards Deming, and 2) applying Deming's 14 Points to workplace safety. Several of Deming's 14 Points are then examined in more detail and how they can guide a proactive, systems-based approach to safety management focusing on continuous improvement.
The document discusses health and safety in the workplace. It emphasizes the importance of developing a comprehensive health and safety plan with management commitment, worksite analysis, hazard prevention controls, and training. An effective plan can reduce injuries, improve productivity and morale, and lower costs. Key elements include management involvement, assessing risks, controlling hazards through engineering and administrative controls or PPE, and educating employees. Employers are responsible under law to provide a safe work environment and protect workers from hazards.

Importance-of-Safety-Training for a industrial workersBharathVJ4
Workplace accidents kill 200,000 and injure 1 million people annually. Safety training can minimize accidents by educating employees. Employers must provide training to protect legal and financial interests, understand duties, and spread safety awareness. Training covers hazards, equipment, first aid, and refresher courses. It reduces accidents and increases confidence and production. Most industries require safety trained candidates.
This document provides an overview of industrial safety concepts. It defines key terms like accident, injury, unsafe act, and unsafe condition. It discusses the need for safety in industries and how safety relates to productivity. Maintaining a safe work environment can minimize lost time from injuries and engage employees. The document also covers safety organization structures and the roles of management, workers, and government agencies in ensuring safety.
The document discusses various business, regulatory, economic and social drivers that are pushing companies to focus more on health, safety, environmental and ethical practices. It notes that workers today demand a better quality of life and companies that do not operate ethically will struggle. The future demands that companies can no longer sacrifice worker well-being for profits. The document then promotes outsourcing compliance needs to a consulting firm that can help companies stay compliant in these areas more effectively and at lower cost. It lists many training and consulting services the firm provides across health and safety, environmental, HR and other domains.
This document provides an overview of occupational health and safety management systems. It discusses establishing the basics of an SMS including safety policies, standards, responsibilities and training. It emphasizes that safety is everyone's responsibility and an SMS requires involvement from all levels of an organization. The SMS aims to move from reactive accident response to proactive prevention through analysis, problem solving, and making safety a shared responsibility across an organization.

This document provides an introduction to continuous safety improvement (CSI) concepts. It discusses how total quality management (TQM) and continuous quality improvement (CQI) principles can be applied to occupational safety and health. The workshop goals are to familiarize participants with W. Edwards Deming's contributions to quality management, and to apply his 14 Points to workplace safety. Deming's 14 Points are then discussed in detail and related to concepts of proactive safety management versus traditional reactive approaches. The document emphasizes that achieving continuous safety improvement requires changing systems and processes, rather than focusing solely on numerical goals or results.
This document discusses potential accidents from slip and fall incidents at workplaces. It outlines the objectives of a study which are to identify the main causes of slips, analyze the relationship between floor surfaces and other contributing factors, compute monetary losses due to slip and fall incidents, and establish guidelines to reduce such accidents. The study will focus on slip and fall incidents that occur at the same level and involve the adult male population at a manufacturing company. Findings from the Department of Occupational Safety and Health between 2010-2013 are presented which list the types of accidents and number of cases reported each year.
Work Based Learning & Health and Safety Act 1974Manoj Nair
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 lays out responsibilities for employers and employees to ensure health and safety in the workplace. It requires employers to protect workers' health, safety, and welfare as far as reasonably practicable. The Act also established the Health and Safety Commission and Executive to enforce regulations. Work-based learning can introduce additional health and safety risks, so clear supervision and risk assessments are important. Following the Act's guidelines benefits employers, trainees, and organizations providing work placements through a safer work environment and culture.
This presentation provides information on job hazard analyses (JHA) including what a JHA is, when they should be used, who is involved in the process, and how to complete one. A JHA is a risk management tool used to analyze hazards and implement controls for jobs and tasks. It involves breaking tasks into steps, identifying hazards, and selecting controls to reduce or eliminate risks. Supervisors are responsible for ensuring tasks requiring JHAs are identified and reviewing completed JHAs. Workers must develop and follow their JHA and stop unsafe work. JHAs help plan safe work and demonstrate a structured approach to risk management.

Actions to Be Taken For the OSHA Citation and Penalties
Justin Caillouet
Columbia Southern University
August 30, 2016
Actions to Be Taken For the OSHA Citation and Penalties
After the company had received the letter that stated the various citations and penalties are facing the business, then it was important that immediate action is taken. OSHA requires that Acme takes immediate steps to act towards the penalties and the citations otherwise the company risks being shut down as per the laws and regulations that have been set by OSHA (Grant & Hinze, 2014). This has been done to ensure that companies do not overlook the responsibility of ensuring the safety of the workers and therefore if Acme does nothing about the charges that were alleged towards it then it faces the risk of being shut down or facing more accusations that will bring huge expenses to the company.
Actions to be taken
Several allegations were made against the Acme Company concerning the working conditions and the safety of the workers after an inspection was carried out. After receiving the letter, the following actions would help the company respond to the citations and the penalties.
1. The company decided to improve the control measures for the lead levels in the enterprise. The Acme management that they will install individual hoods that will control the emissions of lead and thus reduce the exposure of the employees to the levels of lead.
This would aid the company in reducing the permissive emission limit of lead that the employees working in this section are exposed to and thus prevent their workers from some respiratory diseases. Lead is a heavy metal, and it has effects on the health of the people inhaling it and any lady in this section might end up affecting the life of the child she is going to bear, and thus the introduction of the fume hoods would aid in reducing the levels of lead (McCaffrey, 2013). The company would, therefore, have to invest a lot of money in this as the hoods are quite expensive, and the setup and maintenance would also require a lot of money.
2. Punishment of workers who fail to put on safety gloves and facemasks.
This was decided upon after the company got charged for some employees being found without gloves and yet they were handling dangerous chemicals that would harm them. Any employee in the section of a hazardous chemical found without gloves would face consequences as spelt out by the company and agreed upon by the employees as this would help the company avoid penalties that would have been avoided. Clearly, the company provides gloves for the workers, and it is the ignorance of the workers that causes them not to put on the gloves and thus cause penalties to the enterprise (McCaffrey, 2013).
3. The company decided to replace all the unwired cables with new insulated wires.
The company had prev ...
The document discusses incentive programs for industrial safety, health and environmental management. It describes the purpose of safety incentive programs, which is to motivate employees to practice safe behaviors, follow safety rules, and reduce accidents. It also discusses the effectiveness of incentive programs, emphasizing the importance of clear communication, meaningful rewards, and team-based incentives. Finally, it provides examples of encouragement campaigns, roles and the contributions of small group activities, such as a campaign to promote workplace wellness.

Informative speech on George Stinney Jr.
A. Info research analysis
The general purpose of the speech was to inform people about the civil injustice being done against the African American community in the United States. The specific purpose of the speech was to portray to the audience how an innocent 14-year old black boy suffered in the hands of the South Carolina State law enforcing officers. He was falsely accused of killing two white girls and electrocuted within two months after conviction.
I decided the topic of my speech after perusing through all the suggested topics ad found that the story of George Stinney Jr. was touching and emotional entirely.
This topic benefits the audience and the society in general by giving them an insight of the cruelty that the American law system has against the African American community. The audience gets to know how the shady investigations were done with claims that George had pleaded guilty to the charges of murder when there was no real evidence tying him to the crime or a signed plea agreement.
The alternative view that I found in the research was the version of the investigating officer of the case who claimed that the 14-year old boy managed to kill two girls aged 11 and 7 with a blunt object and ditch them in a nearby trench. This alternative point of view did not make sense because it is hard for a 14-year old boy to use the force that was reported by postmortem results to kill the girls. Therefore, I knew everything was a lie and I had to take the point of view of George’s innocence.
B. informative outline
Introduction:
George Stinney Jr. was an African American boy born on October 21, 1929 in Pinewood, South Carolina, U.S. He is considered as the youngest person to be executed by the United State government in 20th century.

1. The hard drive is either soldiered onto the motherboard (there are some new hard drives like this!) or cannot be removed because the screws are stripped (this has happened to me);
2. Even if you figured out the password or got an admin password the PC may have its USB ports blocked via a GPO policy (this is very common in corporations now);
3. Even if you can get the GPO policy overridden you may have some concerns about putting it on the network (which is true especially if you are dealing with malware).
So what you can you do? The best solution is to boot the PC up into forensically sound environment that lets you bypass the password aspect; GPO policy; etc and take a bit-for-bit image. One software that has done the job very well for me is Paladin.
How to get points
If you can send me a screenshot showing me that you had installed Paladin .ISO and made your USB device a bootable device with Paladin using Rufus then you get 10 points.
If you can send me a screenshot showing that you had a chance to boot your computer into Paladin then you will earn an extra 10 points. It is not necessary for you to take a forensic image of your PC but I have included generic instructions here.
Assumptions:
1. You have downloaded Rufus on your computer
2. You have downloaded Paladin on your computer.
Instructions:
1. Make sure you have at least one USB drive.
2. If not down already, download Rufus from https://rufus.ie/.
3. If not done already, download the Paladin ISO image from this website: https://sumuri.com/product/paladin-64-bit-version-7/ which is free. It’s suggested price is $25.00 but you can adjust the price to $0 then order. To be clear – do not pay anything.
4. Insert the USB device in your computer.
5. Run Rufus where you install the Paladin .ISO file on the USB device and make it bootable. Now I could provide you step by step instructions, but this is a Masters class so I want you to explore a bit and figure this out. One good video is this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6JehM0WDTI.
6. After you are done using Rufus where you have installed Paladin.ISO on the USB device and made it bootable then make sure the USB device is in the PC.
7. Restart your PC. Press F9(HP) laptop) or F12 (Dell laptop) so you can be taken into the BIOS bootup menu.
8. This is where things get a bit tricky e.g. your compute may be configured differently where you have to adjust your BIOS settings. If you do not feel comfortable doing this then stop here. I do not want you to mess up your computer. You have already earned ten extra points!
9. If you still proceed then you will see a list of bootable devices. You may, for example, see a list of devices. Pick the device .

Actions to Be Taken For the OSHA Citation and Penalties
Justin Caillouet
Columbia Southern University
August 30, 2016
Actions to Be Taken For the OSHA Citation and Penalties
After the company had received the letter that stated the various citations and penalties are facing the business, then it was important that immediate action is taken. OSHA requires that Acme takes immediate steps to act towards the penalties and the citations otherwise the company risks being shut down as per the laws and regulations that have been set by OSHA (Grant & Hinze, 2014). This has been done to ensure that companies do not overlook the responsibility of ensuring the safety of the workers and therefore if Acme does nothing about the charges that were alleged towards it then it faces the risk of being shut down or facing more accusations that will bring huge expenses to the company.
Actions to be taken
Several allegations were made against the Acme Company concerning the working conditions and the safety of the workers after an inspection was carried out. After receiving the letter, the following actions would help the company respond to the citations and the penalties.
1. The company decided to improve the control measures for the lead levels in the enterprise. The Acme management that they will install individual hoods that will control the emissions of lead and thus reduce the exposure of the employees to the levels of lead.
This would aid the company in reducing the permissive emission limit of lead that the employees working in this section are exposed to and thus prevent their workers from some respiratory diseases. Lead is a heavy metal, and it has effects on the health of the people inhaling it and any lady in this section might end up affecting the life of the child she is going to bear, and thus the introduction of the fume hoods would aid in reducing the levels of lead (McCaffrey, 2013). The company would, therefore, have to invest a lot of money in this as the hoods are quite expensive, and the setup and maintenance would also require a lot of money.
2. Punishment of workers who fail to put on safety gloves and facemasks.
This was decided upon after the company got charged for some employees being found without gloves and yet they were handling dangerous chemicals that would harm them. Any employee in the section of a hazardous chemical found without gloves would face consequences as spelt out by the company and agreed upon by the employees as this would help the company avoid penalties that would have been avoided. Clearly, the company provides gloves for the workers, and it is the ignorance of the workers that causes them not to put on the gloves and thus cause penalties to the enterprise (McCaffrey, 2013).
3. The company decided to replace all the unwired cables with new insulated wires.

The document discusses incentive programs for industrial safety, health and environmental management. It describes the purpose of safety incentive programs, which is to motivate employees to practice safe behaviors, follow safety rules, and reduce accidents. It also discusses the effectiveness of incentive programs, emphasizing the importance of clear communication, meaningful rewards, and team-based incentives. Finally, it provides examples of encouragement campaigns, roles and the contributions of small group activities, such as a campaign to promote workplace wellness.

Informative speech on George Stinney Jr.
A. Info research analysis
The general purpose of the speech was to inform people about the civil injustice being done against the African American community in the United States. The specific purpose of the speech was to portray to the audience how an innocent 14-year old black boy suffered in the hands of the South Carolina State law enforcing officers. He was falsely accused of killing two white girls and electrocuted within two months after conviction.
I decided the topic of my speech after perusing through all the suggested topics ad found that the story of George Stinney Jr. was touching and emotional entirely.
This topic benefits the audience and the society in general by giving them an insight of the cruelty that the American law system has against the African American community. The audience gets to know how the shady investigations were done with claims that George had pleaded guilty to the charges of murder when there was no real evidence tying him to the crime or a signed plea agreement.
The alternative view that I found in the research was the version of the investigating officer of the case who claimed that the 14-year old boy managed to kill two girls aged 11 and 7 with a blunt object and ditch them in a nearby trench. This alternative point of view did not make sense because it is hard for a 14-year old boy to use the force that was reported by postmortem results to kill the girls. Therefore, I knew everything was a lie and I had to take the point of view of George’s innocence.

Introduction:

Case Study- KFC Business Analysis
Abstract
Introduced in 1952 by Colonel Sanders
Second largest restaurant chain today in terms of popularity
Annual revenue of $23 billion
Diversified its menu to suit cultural needs of people across different countries
Hindering factors in KFC’s growth are growing consumer health consciousness, animal welfare criticism, environmental criticism
Introduction
KFC was born in 1952 and its founder was Colonel Sanders
First franchise to grow globally over international market
By the 1960s – 1980s the market was booming in countries like England, Mexico, China
Management and ownership transferred over the years to Heublin, Yum Brands and PepsiCo.
Annual revenue of $23 billion in 2013
KFC had expanded its menu to suit cultural needs of people across different countries
Hindering factors in KFC’s growth are growing consumer health consciousness, animal welfare criticism, environmental criticism, logistic management issue in UK, cultural differences in Asian countries towards accepting the fried chicken menu.
Factors contributing to KFC’s global success
The core reason for KFCs success is it’s mandate to follow strict franchise protocols that have continuously satisfied customers demands:
The quality of the chicken cooked in KFC has certain specific guidelines
The size of the restaurant should be 24x60 feet.
The restaurant washrooms and ktichen has certain cleanliness standards
Food that is not sold off needs to be trashed
The workers need to have a specific clothing and uniform.
A certain % of the gross earnings should be used for advertisement and R&D
Air conditioning is mandatory in the outlets
Global number of KFC restaurants in the past decade
Importance of cultural factors to KFC’s sales success in India and China
Culture is the collective programming of the human mind that distinguishes the members of one human group from those of another. Culture in this sense is a system of collectively held values
“Culture is everything that people have, think, and do as members of their society”, which demonstrating that culture is made up of (1) material objects; (2) ideas, values, attitudes and beliefs; and (3) specified, or expected behavior.
Many scholars have theorized and studied the notion of cross-cultural adaptation, which tends to move from one culture to another one, by learning the elements such as rules, norms, customs, and language of the new culture (Oberg 1960, Keefe and Padilla 1987, Kealey 1989). According to Ady (1995),
“Cultural adaptation is the evolutionary process by which an individual modifies his personal habits and customs to fit into a particular culture. It can also refer to gradual changes within a culture or society that occur as people from different backgrounds participating in the culture and sharing their perspectives and practices.”
Cultural factors in India that go against KFC’s original recipe.

Business ProposalThe Business Proposal is the major writing .docxfelicidaddinwoodie
Business Proposal
The Business Proposal is the major writing assignment in the course. You are to create and submit a formal proposal that suggests how to change something within an organization. This organization can be large or small, a place of employment now or in the past, or an organization to which the students belong. From past experiences, it is best to use a business with fewer than 200 employees, and one with which you have personal experience. It could be a place where you currently work or a place you have worked or volunteered in the past.
The change can be specific to a unit or can apply to the whole organization; it can relate to how important information is distributed, who has access to important information, how information is accessed, or any other change in practices the students see as having a benefit. The proposal should be directed to the person or committee with the power to authorize the change. However, if you are working within a large organization, and asking for a small organizational change, communicating with a CEO or president may not make the most sense. You need to think about who within the organization might be the best person for the type of change suggested.
For the submission, you are to follow the guidelines for formal proposals available in Chapter 10 of the text. You can review 10.1, 10.4, and 10.19 for more information about specific components for a well-written formal business proposal. A complete proposal must have all required sections of a formal report excluding the copy of an RFP and the Authorization. The final draft of the proposal should be 1500–2000 words, and include the following necessary formal proposal components:
Letter of transmittal
Executive summary
Title page
Table of contents
List of illustrations
Introduction
Background: Purpose/problem
Proposal: plan, schedule, details
Staffing
Budget
Appendix
Formatting does matter for this assignment, and you are to check the text for details about how to format and draft the different proposal segments. Proposals don't just have text; graphics and charts are necessary, too. In addition, research is important, and footnotes and references must be included. All content should be concise, clear, and detailed. The proposal should be well-written with appropriate grammar, spelling, and punctuation.
This is a scaffolded writing project that consists of four assignments.

IT Governance
Developing a successful governance strategy
A Best Practice guide for decision makers in IT
The effective use of information technology is now an accepted organisational imperative - for
all businesses, across all sectors - and the primary motivation; improved communications and
commercial effectiveness. The swift pace of change in these technologies has consigned many
established best practice approaches to the past. Today's IT decision makers and business
managers face uncertainty - characterised by a lack of relevant, practical, advice and standards
to guide them through this new business revolution.
Recognising the lack of available best practice guidance, the National Computing Centre has
created the Best Practice Series to capture and define best practice across the key aspects of
successful business.

Abstract: This paper is dealing with the importance of business processes regarding costs
tracking and cost management in healthcare institutions. Various changes within the health
care system and funding of hospitals require the introduction of management information
systems and cost accounting. The introduction of cost accounting in public hospitals would
allow the planning and control of costs, monitoring of costs per patient or service and the
calculation of indicators for the analysis and assessment of the economic performance of the
business of public hospitals and lead to the transparency of budget spending. A model that
would be suited to the introduction in the public hospital is full cost allocation model based on
activities or processes that occur, known as the ABC method. Given that this is a calculation
of cost of services provided through various internal business processes, it is important to
identify all business processes in order to be able to calculate the costs incurred by services.
Although the hospital does not do business with the aim to make a profit, they must follow all
the costs (direct and indirect) to be able to calculate the full costs i.e. the price of the service
provided. In addition, the long-term sustainability of business activities in terms of funding
difficulties and the continuous growth of cost of services provided, hospitals must control and
reduce the cost of the program and specific activities. Therefore, the objective of this paper is
to point out the importance of business processes while introducing ABC method.
Keywords: Business Processes, Cost management, ABC method, Healthcare Institutions

1 Introduction
In recent years, the efficiency of the management in health care services and the system of
quality in health care institutions significantly increased. Patients expect more from
healthcare providers and higher standards of care. At the same time, those who pay for
health services are increasingly concerned about the rising costs of health care services, but
also the potential ineffectiveness of the health care system. Consequently, there is a broad
interest in understanding the ways of efficient work of health care management and .

BUSINESS PLAN FORMAT
Whether you plan to apply for a business loan or not, you need to have a roadmap or plan to get you from where you are to the successful operation of your business. The pages that follow demonstrate the content of a simple business plan which has been found to be successful in obtaining startup funds from banks. You are encouraged to use all or whatever portions of this fit your business.
Please DO NOT write page after page of drivel or copy from someone else’s plan or one of those templates you can find on the Internet. In most cases this will not “sound" like you, nor will it be short and to the point. Those who read these things are busy people and will not be inclined to spend time reading irrelevant paperwork.
Throughout this sample, there are
italicized
comments which are meant to guide you in preparation. If you follow this format it is reasonable to expect a finished document with 15-20 pages plus the supporting documents in the last section.
If you have good quality pictures of your space, products or other items, you might include them as another way to convey just what you plan to do. A map of your location, diagram of floor space, or other illustration is also sometimes helpful. On the other hand, do not add materials simply to “bulk-up” the report.
While content is critical, it is also important to make this presentation look as good as possible. For this course, you will create the business plan in Word and submit the plan and all attachments through the Assignment drop box. That means all attachments have to be in digital form. For a bank loan or an investor, you would normally provide them with a print version. Print the pages in black ink on a high quality tinted letterhead paper. Color is not necessary but would add some interest in headlines, etc. Bind the document in a presentation folder or with a spiral binding. Don’t simply punch a staple in the upper left corner.
If your were going to pursue a bank loan or an investor, it would be normal to take this business plan to your SCORE counselor for a review and critique.
NOTE: Before you begin your inspection of the simple plan outline which follows, take a moment to review the Business Plan Checklist on the next page.
BUSINESS PLAN CHECKLIST
By way of review, here is a concise list of the basic requirements for a Business Plan, as recommended by the MIT Enterprise Forum:
·
Appropriate Arrangement
- prepare an executive summary, a table of contents and chapters in the right order.
·
Right Length
- make it not too long and not too short, not too fancy and not too plain.
·
Expectations
- give a sense of what founder(s) and the company expect to accomplish three to seven years in the future.
·
Benefits
- explain in quantitative and qualitative terms the benefit to the consumer of the products and services.
·
Marketability
- present hard evidence of the mar.

24. Lockout/Tagout Program
Introduction
This is the Lockout Tagout procedure manual that is
available for all employees and safety professionals. It includes
a lockout tagout procedure, a lesson plan and other important
reference information.
25. Purpose of this Document
The goal of the manual is to create a lockout tagout (LOTO)
standard that everyone can follow. All employees are to follow
the procedure because safety is the priority at the company.
LOTO can prevent accidents by securely locking out and
reenergizing a machine. This is so safety is increased in the
company.
Availability
The LOTO procedure is available for any type of review in
the Human Resources Department, the Safety Department and
the Management Office. Each department also has a review
copy.
Human Resource Office 242 324 343 2432
Safety Department Office 234 433 545 3354
Management Office 232 234 324 2322
Scope of the Policy
The LOTO procedure applies to all facilities and departments.
Management Statement
The company is supporting the procedure and its training.
Not only is safety a priority, costs are decreased by using
LOTO. Management will provide the sponsorship and resources
necessary for the program.

Definitions in Lockout/Tagout
Affected employee.
An employee whose job requires him/her to operate or use a
machine or equipment on which servicing or maintenance is
being performed under lockout or tagout, or whose job requires
him/her to work in an area in which such servicing or
maintenance is being performed.
Authorized employee.
A person who locks out or tags out machines or equipment in
order to perform servicing or maintenance on that machine or
equipment. An affected employee becomes an authorized
employee when that employee's duties include performing
servicing or maintenance covered under this section.
Capable of being locked out.
An energy isolating device is capable of being locked out if it
has a hasp or other means of attachment to which, or through
which, a lock can be affixed, or it has a locking mechanism
built into it. Other energy isolating devices are capable of being
locked out, if lockout can be achieved without the need to
dismantle, rebuild, or replace the energy isolating device or
permanently alter its energy control capability.
Energized.
Connected to an energy source or containing residual or stored
energy.
Energy isolating device.
A mechanical device that physically prevents the transmission
or release of energy, including but not limited to the following:
A manually operated electrical circuit breaker; a disconnect
switch; a manually operated switch by which the conductors of
27. a circuit can be disconnected from all ungrounded supply
conductors, and, in addition, no pole can be operated
independently; a line valve; a block; and any similar device
used to block or isolate energy. Push buttons, selector switches
and other control circuit type devices are not energy isolating
devices.
Energy source.
Any source of electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic,
chemical, thermal, or other energy.
Hot tap.
A procedure used in the repair, maintenance and services
activities which involves welding on a piece of equipment
(pipelines, vessels or tanks) under pressure, in order to install
connections or appurtenances. it is commonly used to replace or
add sections of pipeline without the interruption of service for
air, gas, water, steam, and petrochemical distribution systems.
Lockout.
The placement of a lockout device on an energy isolating
device, in accordance with an established procedure, ensuring
that the energy isolating device and the equipment being
controlled cannot be operated until the lockout device is
removed.
Lockout device.
A device that utilizes a positive means such as a lock, either key
or combination type, to hold an energy isolating device in the
safe position and prevent the energizing of a machine or
equipment. Included are blank flanges and bolted slip blinds.
Normal production operations.
The utilization of a machine or equipment to perform its
28. intended production function.
Servicing and/or maintenance.
Workplace activities such as constructing, installing, setting up,
adjusting, inspecting, modifying, and maintaining and/or
servicing machines or equipment. These activities include
lubrication, cleaning or unjamming of machines or equipment
and making adjustments or tool changes, where the employee
may be exposed to the unexpected energization or startup of the
equipment or release of hazardous energy.
Setting up.
Any work performed to prepare a machine or equipment to
perform its normal production operation.
Tagout.
The placement of a tagout device on an energy isolating device,
in accordance with an established procedure, to indicate that the
energy isolating device and the equipment being controlled may
not be operated until the tagout device is removed.
Tagout device.
A prominent warning device, such as a tag and a means of
attachment, which can be securely fastened to an energy
isolating device in accordance with an established procedure, to
indicate that the energy isolating device and the equipment
being controlled may not be operated until the tagout device is
removed.
Responsibilities
29. The responsibilities of the employees are to follow the lockout
tagout procedure. Management will be the leaders on the policy
and expect everyone to know what to do when there is a lockout
tagout tag on a machine.
General Requirements
This is the general requirements section of the lockout
tagout program. The requirements are to follow the procedure at
all times. Employees are to be trained on the procedure and
complete an exam. All department managers are to be
authorized to be lockout tagout professionals and experts.
When a machine is in need of repair or needs a person to
enter the machine where it could be potentially hazardous, it is
required that the procedure is followed.
30. Lockout/Tagout Procedure
Lock Out Tag Out Procedure
Obtain the Lockout/Tagout devices and tags.
Affected employees shall be notified by a supervisor or an
authorized employee of the application and removal of the
lockout devices or Tagout devices. Notification shall be given
before the controls are applied, and after they are removed from
the machine or equipment.
Read and understand the equipment-specific standard operating
procedure.
Locate each energy control point on the equipment.
Power down the equipment.
Isolate the equipment from all hazardous energies sources.
Application of Lockout Tagout
Apply the Lockout/Tagout device so that it locks the energy-
isolating device in the SAFE position. Affix the tag directly to
each lock.
Dissipate, drain, or safely release any stored or residual energy
in the system after Lockout.
Verify that all sources of hazardous energies have been isolated.
This should be done by measuring the energy with a meter or
gauge and by trying to start the equipment. Prior to using the
meter/gauge, ensure it is functioning properly. Be sure to return
all switches to the SAFE position after testing.
Preparation for Re-Energization
Inspect the work area to ensure that all nonessential items,
tools, etc., have been removed from the danger zone.
Check that all the guarding and safety controls have been
properly replaced.
Notify affected employees and ensure that all personnel are in a
safe location before re-energization.
Removal of Lockout/Tagout
Remove the Lockout/Tagout locks and tags.
2. Re-energize the equipment according to start-up
31. procedures in SOP.
Temporary Removal of Lockout/Tagout
1. Clear equipment of tools and materials.
2. Remove affected Employees from equipment area.
3. Remove Lockout/Tagout devices.
4. Energize and proceed with testing or positioning.
5. De-energize all systems and reapply energy control
measures in accordance with procedures.
Lockout/Tagout Devices
In most instances, a lockout device is preferable to a tag
because tags do not present a physical restraint to the startup of
equipment. Tags are warning devices which can be easily
removed, bypassed, obscured or ignored. When a tag is used,
further steps should be taken to ensure that procedures are
safely carried out.
The following are requirements for Lockout/Tagout devices:
1. Departments are responsible for providing employees with
a sufficient number of devices for control of hazardous energy.
2. Lockout/Tagout devices must be used only for controlling
energy and shall not be used for other purposes.
3. Lockout/Tagout devices must be capable of withstanding
the environment for the period of time they will be applied.
Tagout devices must be constructed and printed so that the
exposure to weather, wet conditions or corrosive environments
will not alter the tag or make it unreadable.
4. Lockout/Tagout devices must be standardized within the
University. Color, shape or size must be standard. With Tagout
devices, print and format must be standard.
5. Lockout devices must be sturdy enough to prevent removal
without the use of excessive force. Tagout devices must be
sturdy enough to prevent inadvertent or accidental removal.
Tagout attachment devices must be non-reusable and self-
locking.
32. 6. Lockout/Tagout devices must indicate the identity of the
employee applying

The Undiscovered Power of Media
We have done a great deal of exploration over the past several
weeks related to digital and social media use. Our explorations
have led us to connect, disconnect, and the re-evaluate our use
of media. This has forced us to think critically about the
prevlance of media in our lives and the impact that it can have
on us personally and on individuals, groups, and society as a
whole. However, what we have engaged in over the last four
weeks is only the beginning of truly becoming digitally and
media literacy. What it has done is made us more aware of the
media around us and the media that we use. That is truly the
first step in becoming digitally and media literacy. You see, this
51. process is not a destination, it is a journey that is consistently
changing and new mediated technologies continue to evolve.
This week we will:
1. Discuss the impact of mediated messages by reflecting on
specific effects
2. Write about better management of personal digital media
use in a simulated blog.
3. Create mediated messages for a specific purpose using a
variety of media platforms.
Positive and Negative Forces
Just as with everything else in life, the media has positive and
negative effects on us. Most often we will hear arguments
related to how “bad” media are for us and the positive aspects
are mostly downplayed. However, in order to truly appreciate
the value of media, it is necessary that we understand both
aspects.
Potter (2014) notes that there are seven distinct types of effects
that media can be divided into: cognitive, belief, attitudinal,
emotional, physiological, behavioral, and macro. This is
certainly a more in depth analysis of media effects that we often
think of on the surface. He also notes that we must think about
effects from a multidimensional rather than a singular “effect”
as we often do. We must employ critical thinking skills in order
to truly understand the impact of media. Potter’s views,
however, are not the only ones that exist related to mediated
effects. What the video below for an overview of some theories
that we use to analyze mediated messages and the impact that
they have on society at large.
Beyond the Boundaries
Digital and social media have a great deal of value to us both
personally and professionally. The issue is largely that we do
not understand how to truly unleash the power of these
platforms to achieve our goals. Rather than thinking of them as
52. a quick and easy way to connect, if we think of them as a way
to achieve goals, develop relationships, disseminate ideas and
collaborate with others, then digital and social media can
literally become the keys to our success in many cases.
The issues, then, do not lie in the fact that we spend so much
time with media, it is mostly in the way that we fail to
effectively use media in our personal and professional lives.
The question we must ask ourselves is whether or not we are
truly using digital and social media to the fullest extent to
achieve our goals. Then, we must figure out how to increase our
digital and media literacy skills in order to move in a direction
towards using it more effectively and efficiently. Read the
following article: How Effective People Use Social Media.
SOMETHING TO PONDER
1. What are your future goals and how can you use media to
advance them?
2. Where do you envision our social media systems in the next
5 years?
3. What will be the next “big thing” in media, in your view?
THIS WEEK’S ASSIGNMENTS
This week culminates our experiences in the course. We will
discuss the impact of media on our lives from more a theoretical
perspective by considering some media effects set forth by
Potter (2014). We will then consider where we go after this
course and for years to come in terms of how we will continue
to develop media literacy skills to more effectively achieve our
goals in our personal and professional lives.

53. Exploring the Impact of Mediated Messages
Discussion Title
Prepare: If you take a poll and ask others if they feel they are
influenced by media, the majority will probably answer “no.” In
reality, we are all impacted by mediated messages whether we
realize it or not. Read Chapter 13. Potter (2014) discusses
several types of effects which we will explore in this
discussion.
Reflect: After reading the chapter, try to think of one example
that illustrates each media effect from all of the media
(informative, entertainment, and persuasive) that you have
engaged in throughout the course. Think about the audiences for
which the messages were intended. You also may wish to think
about unintended audiences and possible effects of the messages
on them as well.
Write: Once you have thought of an example to illustrate each
effect, choose two of them to discuss in at least 250 words. In
your post, clearly explain the effect in your own words and how
the example illustrates that effect. In your post, you must
include at least one in-text citation from the reading material
related to each effect and you must also include an image or
link to the mediated message that you are discussing. At the end
of your post, include your name and a full reference for all
sources cited in the body of your post. All citations and
references must adhere to APA style guidelines as outlined in
theAshford Writing Center.
Check It! Your post must be submitted throughGrammarly prior
to submission.
Respond to Peers: After you have written your initial post, read
54. the posts of your peers and respond to at least two others about
their examples of the effects they choose to write about. Your
responses should address them by name, be between 100 and
150 words in length, and you must include your name at the end
of each response.
Beyond 101
Discussion Title
Prepare: To this point, we have explored a lot about media and
its impact on us, all while developing our media literacy skills.
Now it is time to consider where we go from here. Read Chapter
20 of the textbook.
Reflect: After reading Chapter 20, consider the 12 guidelines
that Potter (2014) presents to help you continue to practice
media literacy skills beyond this course. How will you use these
guidelines and how might you help others? Consider at least two
strategies for each guideline.
Write: Now that you have considered at least two strategies for
each guideline, choose the one that you like most. Then, create
a blog that includes an introductory paragraph and a numbered
list with each guideline and your one best strategy for how to
help yourself and others on the digital and media literacy
journey. Include a byline at the beginning of your blog post. At
the end of your blog, include a full reference for all sources
cited in the body of your blog. All citations and references must
adhere to APA style guidelines as outlined in theAshford
Writing Center. View theFormatting Stories and Blogs
document for assistance with formatting your blog.
Check It! Your blog must be submitted throughGrammarly prior
55. to submission.
Respond to Peers: Read your peers’ blogs about their strategies
and comment on at least three others about those strategies.
Your comments should address them by name, be between 50
and 75 words in length, and you must include your name at the
end of each comment.
