An accident investigation report summarizes a workplace accident that occurred on November 21, 2014 involving an employee named Julita. The direct cause of the accident was determined to be an unsafe act of discipline, as Julita was cutting a PCB board outside of the required safety box. This caused a piece of the board to fly into her left eye. As a result of the investigation, recommendations were made to enforce administrative controls like safety training and signage, as well as engineering controls like automated breaking equipment, to prevent similar accidents from occurring due to unsafe disciplinary actions.

It will be impact to the LDC back to reset “ZERO”.
8. Risk Control Recommendation
Substitution controls :
1. Engineering may provide breaking PCB Machine to eliminate manual
operation.
Administrative controls :
1. Brief operator’s to ensure cutting/breaking must be inside protecting box
without exception.
2. Need to provide Safety sign board (by the engineers).
3. Emphasis safety warnings on work instructions.
PPE controls :
1. Use Safety googles only for specified process which potential risk injures eye.
