HAZARDOUS PROCESS, ROOFS, STEEL ERECTION, DEMOLITION
AVINASH KUMAR GUPTA, TRAINING INSTITUTE SOOCHNA BHAWAN, NEW DELHI
Tool Box Talk | Stop the Drop
An object falling (even from a low height) can have serious if not fatal consequences. At construction sites
we have a lot of material, equipment and tools being used or placed at height, which pose a significant risk
to anyone passing or working below.
The primary objective is to proactively STOP the DROP. Wherever there is work at height, contractors must
plan the work and identify risk controls to prevent dropped objects. There must be co-ordination and
communication between all personnel working in the same area. Barriers, exclusion zones and warning
signs must be in position.
Falling flying object safety
Falling objects pose a danger at construction sites. Workers under cranes, scaffolds, or overhead work are at risk of injury from falling objects like tools or materials. Proper protective equipment like hardhats can help reduce these risks. Following safety procedures such as securing tools and materials, using guardrails or debris nets, and barricading hazard areas are also important for preventing injuries from falling objects.
Safety in cement plant
The cement production process involves several hazards at each stage from quarrying to storage that can cause injuries or health issues to workers. Safety countermeasures include proper personal protective equipment, isolating energy sources, controlling dust levels, monitoring noise exposure, and having emergency response plans in place. The document outlines the key hazards at each stage of cement production and the safety practices needed to minimize risks to workers.
Personal safety in construction
The document discusses personal protective equipment for construction site safety. It recommends wearing a hard helmet, ear plugs, safety glasses or goggles, safety shoes or boots, and gloves for piling work to protect from falling objects, loud noises, debris, foot hazards, and injuries. Additional safety gear like safety belts are required when working at heights or performing tasks like welding, grinding or material handling. Indian safety standards are referenced for various types of protective equipment. Vigilance is stressed along with maintaining safety devices, permits for hazardous areas, illumination, and medical exams.

The presentation has prepared as per the syllabus of Mumbai University.
Go through the presentation, if you like it then share it with your friends and classmates.
Thank you :)
Safety Procedures while working in height
The document provides safety guidelines for lifting workers and materials at a construction site using passenger lifts and material hoists. Key points include installing passenger lifts according to manufacturer specifications, operating material hoists within rated load capacities and speeds, using personal fall arrest systems like harnesses and lanyards, inspecting equipment, and implementing fall protection programs including guardrails and screens to contain falling objects. Workers should be trained on safe equipment use and fall hazards assessed before each job.
Construction site safety
Construction site safety is important to prevent common accidents like falls, collisions, and injuries. Common risks include falling objects, excavation collapses, electrocutions, and falls from ladders or roofs. Proper protective equipment like hard hats, high-visibility vests, safety boots, and harnesses can help prevent injuries when working at heights or with heavy machinery. All workers must follow safety protocols to ensure their own protection and that of others on the jobsite.

Residential Safety 2009
Falls were the leading cause of residential construction deaths from 2003-2008 according to data from Region V. Roof falls and falls from ladders were among the most common types of falls. Struck by incidents such as falling objects and electrocutions were also significant causes of deaths. Common violations included lack of fall protection such as guardrails or slide guards, improper use of ladders and scaffolds, and failure to use personal protective equipment like hard hats. Establishing better safety programs, training, and fall protection measures were recommended to reduce residential construction deaths and injuries.
Risk Management in Premises Liability
Premises Liability and Risk Management
Premises-liability" law covers any type of claim that results from an allegedly "unreasonably dangerous condition" on the property. While commercial facilities such as grocery and retail stores, restaurants and malls are the most common targets due to the large volume of customers that enter their stores, all business owners who have a physical business location are at risk. But so are home owners and landlords, when guests or renters get injured because of some property condition.
Premises-liability claims typically are made by customers, employees, guests or tenants who sustain personal injuries as a result of a:

Hazardous Work Practices in Construction
There are many occupational health and safety hazards in the construction industry. This presentation provides an overview of these work practices and working environments related to residential building and high rise, roadways, bridges and tunnels, service industry and small business, construction performed in general industry and maritime trades, restoration work, and other similar construction work activities. The reviewer should understand that there are many OSHA training requirements that complement this presentation. The Windsor Consulting Group, Inc. provides all types of construction training from restoration and repair services to multi-billion dollar capital projects for property development. All OSHA training complies with the requirements and training is presented by seasoned CIHs and CSPs with construction experience.
Minimum set of instruction crane safety
This document outlines several common hazards associated with crane operation, including power lines, underground services, people and other equipment in the area, dropped loads, crush injuries, weather conditions like wind and lightning, oil leaks, plant movements, and overloading. Safety precautions are provided, such as maintaining exclusion zones, using spotters, checking rigging, and stopping work during thunderstorms. The list of hazards is not exhaustive and crane operators should take many factors into account to perform lifts safely.
Fall Protection in Constuction
Falls are a leading cause of worker deaths in construction. Proper fall protection includes guardrails, covers, fall arrest systems, and planning to eliminate hazards. Fall arrest systems must include an anchorage rated for 5,000 lbs, a body harness limiting the arresting force to 1,800 lbs, and an energy absorbing lanyard. Elimination of fall hazards through design changes is the best approach according to the hierarchy of fall protection. Covers must support twice their weight and free fall must be less than 24 inches for work positioning.

This document discusses research into psychopathic traits in corporate workplaces. Researchers have found that psychopathic traits like lack of empathy and remorse are common among high-level corporate employees, with some studies finding their prevalence is similar to that in prisons. These successful psychopaths exhibit the same core traits as other psychopaths such as dishonesty and aggression but are often able to charm others. There is also overlap between psychopathic traits and bullying behaviors in workplaces. The document argues more needs to be done to independently investigate bullying claims and develop strategies to cope with workplace stresses and bullies.
Accident investigation full version
The document discusses the importance of conducting thorough accident investigations and root cause analyses. Legal regulations require employers to investigate accidents to plan corrective actions, demonstrate a positive safety culture to courts, and provide information to insurers. A full investigation identifies immediate causes and underlying root causes through methods like fishbone diagrams. The goal is to learn lessons, implement risk controls, and prevent recurrences, rather than attribute blame. A safety-focused culture is needed to ensure employees' cooperation with investigations.
Promoting a positive health and safety culture
Promoting a good health and safety culture is about Attitudes.
Trust, motivation and just about everything we do in the workplace
Full moon fallacy.pptx2
This document discusses various logical fallacies, including the "full moon fallacy" which is the tendency to attribute increased accidents, crime rates, etc. to the full moon despite a lack of evidence. It provides examples of arguments committing fallacious reasoning by making unjustified causal links between the full moon and accidents or behaviors. The document warns readers not to fall prey to fallacious thinking and assumptions, but rather to conduct root cause analyses of accidents logically using tools like cause-and-effect diagrams to identify actual causal factors, not assume blame, and ultimately prevent future accidents.
Wind loading on gates
- The study examines the effects of wind loading on manually operated gates through direct measurements under varying wind conditions and comparisons to still air conditions.
- Wind loading can significantly increase the force required to operate gates, which may exceed safe manual handling limits and increase the risk of injury.
- There is little guidance available for operators to properly assess these risks, and wind is often not considered a significant factor in risk assessments.

Health and safety_is_just_common_sense...
While common sense seems like it should be enough to ensure safety, the document argues that true health and safety requires more than just common sense. Common sense is based on past experiences and differs between individuals and groups. It also does not consider unseen risks from electrical wiring or asbestos. Additionally, common sense is not innate but learned, so children and those without training may not have the common sense needed to identify hazards. True health and safety demands following established laws and approaching issues intelligently with an open mind, not just relying on common sense.
Work At Height
