The observation of safety guidelines are essential to the well being of any worker and the productivity of the said workers. this presentation will offer a clear guideline for those within the building industry.
Your hands are the most important tool you have. Still each year over 16 million people suffer hand injuries from industrial related accidents. Over 250,000 of these injuries are serious and often disabling injuries. This represents 25% of all industrial injuries.
TOOL BOX TALK | HAND CARE - Your hands are your most valuable tools. Nothing has ever been
invented that can match them for practicality and adaptability. That’s why it’s
so important to learn how to protect your hands, both at work and at home.
First Aid in the workplace - Basic equipment methods and techniques that are used by every First Aider. The need for a trained First aider is growing and their equipment is basic yet effective in handling first on-site treatment, in emergencies.
Drop is any object that falls from its previous static position under its own weight. Dropped Objects are among the Top 10 causes of Fatality and Serious Injury in the Oil and Gas Industry. Our focus would be on products and systems that can be integrated into the customer’s safety management systems to identify potential dropped object hazards, prevent their occurrence, and mitigate their outcome. We would share information on a broad array of tools, products and deliverables, including inspection programmes, awareness videos and presentations, safety checklists, guidelines, procedures and best practices as a part of building up awareness on DROPS and also offer our customers to buy these special dropped object prevention products and services from one source.
Concept is simple - if we can keep our hands at a distance while doing tasks like guiding, positioning, pushing, pulling slung loads or doing anything to bring it to its final place – we avoid a “caught between” kind of situation and protect our hands.

With over thousands of products in its stocking range, Project Sales Corp is undoubtedly India’s largest oilfield ropes, soaps, dopes store. We call it the Rig Essentials Line.
Take a look inside to see some of the key products that we stock in this category of MRO, Tools, Safety and Rig Essentials. Whether you are a rig operator or an oilfield supplier, you will find consolidating your purchases with us for the items we stock would be the right way to service your end-users requirement the quickest way!
How We Work
Imagine using a $200 a pail dope and using a $1 dope brush, the savings you have with the brush costs, you don’t realise the loss you incur with the dope as a faulty brush creates pilferage of materials, improper application of dopes and overall a total higher costs than the savings you made buying the cheap dope brush.
Keeping this logic in mind that a cheap substitute ultimately costs more in total costs, Project Sales Corp has built up a portfolio of proven good quality high performance products from India and worldwide used on-board drilling rigs. They improve reliability, reduce overall costs, downtime and provide user a peace of mind with daily essentials on the rig.
We don’t stock the quality that generally sells in the local markets, we bring in products that have proven themselves in being able to make a positive difference. That’s sums up our strategy to this core product category – The rig essentials line of Ropes, Soaps, Dopes that has contributed over $25 million of revenues in last 10 years.
The daily materials used on a rig are colloquially referred to as Rope, Soap, and Dope.
➢ Rope referred to chains and ropes used to hoist materials up to derricks and platforms
➢ Soap was used in reference to products and tools used to clean machinery, tools, the rig, and the workers themselves
➢ Dope meant the lubricants, grease, and fuel - the essential liquids that were employed to keep machinery and the rig up and running.
Our workplace safety range comprises of products that can mitigate various kinds of risks in workplace or improve safety facility identification to assist workers with working in a safer environment. Key products include Slips Trips and Falls protection with Anti-skid tapes, Barricading Tapes, Lane Marking Tapes, 5S Program, Utility Hooks for Cables and Hoses, Facility signages, Traffic control products, and more. We also stock scaffolding and ladder tags, small instrument tagging systems like Microtags and Nanotags, Confined Space Entry Kits, etc. PSC Whipchecks are used as hose restraints to prevent hoses from whipping. The Nightstick range of intrinsic safety flashlights range with world’s first dual light improves safety with visibility for near and far objects, at the same time. Safepads improve safety while working with scaffold and all kinds of protruding objects.

Lubrication accounts for a small part of the overall maintenance budgets and the right lubricant goes a long way to reduce downtime, improve reliability and enhance equipment life.
Leading bearing manufacturers have conducted studies to find out the reasons for premature bearing failure. More than one-third of bearing failures is due to imperfect lubrication. In many more cases, which cannot be traced directly to imperfect lubrication, it’s still the underlying cause.
Project Sales Corp is pleased to introduce its Sealing Compounds range. We represent one of the most exhaustive range of Sealing Compounds from around the world that finds application in sealing steam and gas turbines, compressors, pumps, gearboxes, flanges and more.
An ideal flanged joint would consist of two, mirror-finish, perfectly flat and parallel surfaces bolted directly together to create a leak-free seal. However, manufacturing processes do not allow for perfect sealing surfaces. Most flange faces have surface irregularities that cannot be sealed without the use of some type of compressible, resilient material or a combination of materials between them to seal the fluid being transferred. This is true even for the most finely machined surfaces as a turbine flange where the surface asperities can create a leak situation.
Slung loads are dangerous. Going close to it exposes one to various injuries, pinch, crush and foot and body injuries. There is tension in the load until it rests in the final position. There are obvious chances of injuring the fingers and hands and getting too close to the red zone where a suspended dropped object could fall on the foot or body. You also expose yourself to lacerations and abrasion when the object you are trying to guide is sharp or rough.
PSC introduces the PSC Guide-it SlingGrab, a simple to use load positioning tool to manage slung loads by using the special head designed for chains and wire rope slings, webbing slings, to grab and manoeuvre the slung loads while it moves to its final position. Concept is simple - if we can keep our hands at a distance while doing tasks like guiding, positioning, pushing, pulling slung loads or doing anything to bring it to its final place – we avoid a “caught between” kind of situation and protect our hands.
Available in 4 lengths and competitively priced, you can now make it a rule, no grabbing slings by hand, always use a PSC Guide-it SlingGrab. Please see attached for more details.

2. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Guide for Supervisors:
• What hazards to the hands are
foreseeable with this task?
• Do your people have the knowledge,
skills and training necessary to complete
the task safely?
• Can the hazards be eliminated, isolated,
or minimized?
• Are gloves appropriate (e.g. rotating
equipment)?
• Is the glove application appropriate for
the hazard?
3. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Danger
Toolbox Talk No 1 Zone!
• Five Toolbox Talks, which focus on hand safety
• Each features a Danger Zone area
• Have a look at the examples of real injuries in
this presentation and discuss how to avoid the
injuries that can occur in each
• A concept that can be used in each Toolbox
Talk is shown below
• Each talk will be about how you keep hands out
of Danger Zones by primary or secondary
means
• Secondary means are typically accomplished by
gloves, but should always be used in
conjunction with primary control method
Never rely solely on gloves for protection
Good Hand Position Poor Hand Position
Danger Danger
Zone! Zone!
4. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Primary Hand Protection
• One of the best and most effective means of
primary hand protection is good hand position. Don’t
position your hands where they can be:
Cut or punctured by sharp objects
Burned by hot objects or chemicals
Pinched between objects
Struck by objects (stored energy)
• In order that you properly position your hands,
first recognize the hazard, then develop a work
practice to keep hands out of “The Danger Zone!”
• The best safety device for your hands is your
mind. By being alert and aware you can avoid poor
hand positioning and keep them out of “The
Danger Zone”
6. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No: 2
Injuries Caused by Sharp Objects
The hands and fingers are the most often injured
parts of the body and it’s very easy to understand
why. There are few work activities, which do not
involve the hands. The potential for injury is always
there
AVOID THE DANGER ZONE
The most common types of hand injury are
puncture wounds and lacerations. These involve:
– cutting fingers through misuse of knives
– crushing injuries through entrapment
– chemical burns
8. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No: 2 (cont’d)
• As you can tell, all these injuries occurred
during normal, everyday type job activities
• When we ask ourselves how we could have
avoided these injuries, our first impulse is to
say “better glove usage”
• You might be surprised to know that in most of
these incidents, gloves were being worn
• Gloves should always be considered as a
“secondary” level of defense
• While proper gloves for the task, in good
condition, prevent many injuries “primary”
levels of defense are much more effective
Examples Include:
– Proper planning each job activity
– Checking material/equipment for rough or sharp
edges before handling
– Making sure moving machinery is guarded
– Maintaining an effective barrier between hands
and hazards by using tools or other aids
– Good housekeeping on workbenches etc.
9. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No. 2 (cont’d)
On the previous slide are a few of the things to
consider (primary levels of defense) in order to
prevent exposure to hazards, before considering
whether gloves (secondary level of defense) are
appropriate for the job
Keep this concept in mind and do whatever it takes
to keep your hands out of:
THE DANGER ZONE
13. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No: 3
Thermal/Chemical Contact Injuries
• Thermal and chemical contact hand injuries, along
with the other types of hand injuries, are easily
prevented if hands are kept out of:
THE DANGER ZONE
• The most common hand injuries associated with
contact with hot surfaces and chemicals
include:
– burns - both chemical and thermal
– types of dermatitis, known as skin rash
• Both types of injuries can be serious and painful
• Laundry detergents and other household
varieties can cause not only dermatitis, but also
chemical burns - skin contact with detergents
must be avoided
• To clean any part of the body ensure that the
detergent or cleaners has been specifically
designed for skin contact
16. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No 3 (Cont’d)
• Chemicals and hot surfaces or materials
are the greatest source of exposure
• Chemical exposure can be associated with
those used in process, during construction
and/or repair and maintenance activities
• Usually involves paints, coatings, thinners and
other solvents
• Materials such as fibreglass insulation and steel
wool can also cause dermatitis through
mechanical irritation
• Burns can result from contact with chemicals
such as acid or caustic and of course from hot
surfaces, liquid or materials
• For all of the risks associated with the hazards
listed above, the primary line of defense is safe
working practices - all intended to keep our
hands out of :
KEEP OUT OF THE DANGER ZONE
17. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No 3 (Cont’d)
• Below are examples of safe working
practices relative to the prevention of hand
injuries from thermal or chemical contact:
– substitute chemicals for less hazardous
products that won’t cause dermatitis or
burns
– use simple tools such as pliers to move or
hold hot materials
– place “hot” warning signs near hot objects
– use containers which have been specifically
designed to carry and contain chemicals
– good hygiene, includes methods to remove
contaminated gloves without skin contact
– good housekeeping associated with removal
of contaminated materials
• The second line of defense should be gloves,
but they must be the right type for the job
– heavy duty leather for hot metal etc.
– specifically designed to suit chemical type
– either of synthetic or natural rubber material
– check the MSDS to determine glove type
KEEP OUT OF THE DANGER ZONE
18. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No: 4
Injuries Involving Stored Energy
• Consider what can we do to protect our hands
from injuries that are caused by stored energy
• When we refer to stored energy we mean “pent-
up” energy, that could be released unexpectedly if
not maintained under control
• Stored energy includes:
– hydraulic fluids under pressure
– compressed air
– energy stored in compressed springs
– process chemicals under pressure
– potential energy from suspended objects
– arm energy e.g. when you push/pull a wrench
21. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No: 4 (cont’d)
• How do we protect our hands from stored energy
• Firstly, we need to recognise it exists prior to
commencing an activity
• However, stored energy is not always easily
recognizable
• The electrical power source on an item of
workshop equipment may be locked out, but
pressure may still be present in a hydraulic
cylinder
• A valve or blank in line may have pressure against
it because a valve further upstream has leaked or
has been cracked open
• An unrecognized high centre of gravity may cause
a piece of equipment to topple over unexpectedly
22. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No 4 (cont’d)
• Consider what work practices we can follow to
prevent hand injuries associated with stored or
pent-up energy
– always lock-off and tag energy sources before
placing hands in the Danger Zone
– determine if there are multiple energy sources
present on the same piece of equipment
– remember to bleed off stored energy in cylinders,
receivers, pipelines etc.
– look out for alternate supply feeds, bypassed
interlocks or valves that may not be properly
closed
– when applying force (push or pull) be prepared for
an unexpected slip or release
– keep hands from under suspended loads
– consider the force of gravity
– always use the right tools for the job and ensure
those tools are in good condition
– recognize that gloves will not offer you the means
of total protection from injuries where stored
energy is present
KEEP YOUR HANDS OUT OF
THE DANGER ZONE
23. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No 5:
Injuries Received From Pinch Points
Take a brief moment to look at your hands:
• Your hands tell a lot about you and give some
indication of your past
• If you are like most people, one or more visible
scars will exist
• Each scar will have a unique story of misfortune
attached to it
• These scars will perhaps have been the result of
being caught in a pinch-point
• Pinch points are created any time two objects
come together
• A classic example of a pinch-point is where a
closing door and door frame come together, a
time and a place where you don’t want your
hand
KEEP OUT OF THE DANGER ZONE
25. HAND SAFETY TOOL KIT
Toolbox Talk No 5 (Cont’d)
• In this industry we have sustained many injuries
involving pinch points
• Examples include:
– Floorman and Driller removing elevators from
bales, thumb caught in pinch point between
elevators and bales causing laceration that
required sutures
– Crewmember attempted to hold door to prevent it
from slamming, finger caught between door and
jamb causing laceration that required sutures
• In each of those examples gloves did little to
prevent the injury
• The key to avoiding those injuries is the
identification and recognition of pinch-points
associated with each task
• An objective over the next week is to identify
pinch points in our work environment
• Identify them and then decide how they can be
avoided
• Use mechanical means to move material or
equipment, as opposed to manual application
