Ko tza how to apply industrial safety standard in myanmar 241212thinthinaung2005
This document outlines plans to implement international safety standards in Myanmar. It discusses current occupational safety and health (OSH) frameworks around the world and in the region. The current OSH framework in Myanmar is described. Steps for preparing an OSH framework in Myanmar include establishing a national OSH committee and upgrading inspection capabilities. The roles of various stakeholders like developers, designers, and contractors are also outlined. A short term plan involves enhancing capabilities while a long term plan is to work towards achieving safety targets through legal frameworks and talent development.
1) Scaffolds must be designed and constructed to support heavy loads, with platforms that are fully decked and secured properly.
2) Inspections of scaffolds and their components must be conducted daily for defects to ensure structural integrity and safety.
3) Proper access, such as stairways or ramps, must be provided when platforms are more than 2 feet above or below an access point. Makeshift devices cannot be used to increase scaffold height.
The document discusses regulations around scaffold safety from 29 CFR 1926 Subpart L. It provides information on requirements for competent persons, supported scaffold construction including platform construction and height to width ratios, and erecting, dismantling, and moving scaffolds. Specific guidelines are given for supported scaffold access, fall protection during erection and dismantling, and rules for moving scaffolds with employees.

The presentation concludes that implementing an OSH management system can significantly reduce work-related accidents and that all countries and organizations should work to improve OSH standards.
The document summarizes regulations for scaffold safety from 29 CFR 1926 Subpart L. It covers the scope and application of regulations to different types of scaffolding. It emphasizes training requirements to protect workers from electrical, fall, and falling object hazards. Clearances must be maintained from power lines. Fall protection like personal fall arrest systems or guardrails are required for scaffolds over 10 feet. Guardrails must be installed on scaffold platforms and falling object protection provided.
The document discusses regulations around work at height in the UK. It outlines that falls from height are a major cause of workplace fatalities and injuries. The Work at Height Regulations of 2005 aim to reduce risks by requiring fall prevention plans, risk assessments, proper equipment selection, worker training, and prioritizing collective protection over personal protection. The regulations apply across various industries and seek to avoid work at height if possible and prevent falls through safe work planning, equipment, and procedures.
