Health and Safety Toolbox Talks are the quickest and most effective way to educate your construction workers in short bursts.
This toolbox talk gives you the information you need your staff to know to be able to work safely in and around excavations.
A must for all groundworkers, utility installers and any trade working on site during excavation work.

Construction is the industry mostly affected during monsoon season. Not only there are work delays but working in rain also cause some additional Health & Safety hazards. Some extra precautions must be taken to minimize the health risk during rainy season and workers should be trained to work during low visibility and slippery conditions.
Fall hazard means a circumstance that exposes a worker in a workplace to a risk of a fall that is reasonably likely to cause injury to the worker or other person.
Assessing risks from working at height.
Common Fall Hazards at construction site.

THESIS - WIKANG FILIPINO, SA MAKABAGONG PANAHONMi L
I uploaded this thesis for the reference of the future researchers.
Entitled Wikang Filipino, sa Makabagong Panahon.
We tackled about the progress of Filipino language as time pass by. And the factors that affect it.
Enjoy and God bless! :)
Safety at Construction site is the matter of someone's life so it has to give top priority, we are truly professional to follow this and its actually increase our efficiency, just check out our safety standard
Excavation and trenching are among the most hazardous construction operations. OSHA defines an excavation as any man-made cut, cavity, trench, or depression in the earth’s surface formed by earth removal. A trench is defined as a narrow underground excavation that is deeper than it is wide, and is no wider than 15 feet (4.5 meters).
At the recent GEAPS Exchange in St. Louis, Missouri, Kirk Nelson addressed the fundamentals of steel bin installation and maintenance. Safety awareness was also highlighted, a topic that remains of critical importance to those working in the grain, storage and handling industry. In the past 50 years, more than 900 cases of grain engulfment have been reported with a fatality rate of 62 percent, according to researchers at Purdue University in Indiana. Nelson cited the main hazards associated with grain bins commonly include; grain engulfment and burial, falls from heights, dust and mould inhalation, pesticide exposure, electrocution and injuries from augurs.
This training session discusses how to avoid slips, trips, and falls in the workplace. This includes avoiding hazards on walking and working surfaces and work platforms, as well as how to avoid accidents on ladders and stairs.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Safety in Excavations is covered by:
The Health and Safety at Work Act
The Management of Health and Safety at Work
Regulations
The Construction (Design & Management) Regulations
The Working at Height Regulations are also applicable as a
deep excavation presents a fall risk
3. If a trench or excavation
cannot be made safe by
sloping or battering the
sides to the angle of
repose, support must
be in place, such as
sheet piling or trench
boxes
Loose/fractured rock
also requires support as
does wet sand and high
clay content soil.
No soil can be relied on to support
its own weight, regardless of the
make up of the soil.
The Angle of Repose is the
steepest angle that a substance
will always fall to.
4. The type of support
depends upon:
The type of excavation
The nature of the ground
Ground water conditions
A survey of soil by a
competent person will
ascertain which type of
support is required. A
safe system of work must
be devised for
installing/removing
supports.
Sheet Piling
Trench Box
5. ACCESS SERVICES
Access must be by:
- Ladder
- Stepped Earth
- Steps
- Sloping Ground
Service drawings MUST be
consulted before works
commence
CAT scanning MUST also
be undertaken as a
precaution
If servcices are found –
works must STOP
IMMEDIATELY!
6. The edges of excavations must be barriered
to prevent persons, vehicles, plant or objects
falling in.
Barriers must comply with the Working at
Height Regulations and have a guard rail at
950mm.
Stop blocks can be used to stop plant getting
too near the edge of the excavation as this
may cause collapse.
7. Deep excavations
should be treated as
confined spaces and a
gas test undertaken
prior to entry.
If the air monitor shows
an unsafe atmosphere,
respiratory equipment
must be worn
8. It is a legal requirement to inspect an excavation at the start of
every shift.
Persons must not be set to work if the excavation shows signs
of cracking or if the sides have moved.
Movement can be detected from supports moving or from
objects, like stones, falling.
The angle of the supports should be checked and the edges.
The report must be recorded on a statutory inspection form.
