Project Sales Corp is pleased to
introduce several products in
Indian markets that will help
eliminate hand and finger injuries
while handling suspended loads
and performing various tasks in
the workplace.
Please feel free to circulate this
presentation on the concept,
evolution, strategies in hands‐free
lifting and hands‐off tools to your
colleagues who might benefit
from the use of this.
Project Sales Corp, marketers of leading impact glove brands Kong™, Mechanix®, Ringers and HexArmor® in India now offers a complete hands-off tools portfolio to
include several products to support companies in India with a proactive Hands Free Policy.
While access to data in the India’s offshore industry is not available, one thing, from our sale of impact gloves to almost all O&G companies, is clear – the industry
uses the impact gloves as a last line of defense for impact protection and to reduce/ if not eliminate pinched fingers, bruising blows and hairline fractures. The
first probably is the company’s hands off policy that seeks to identify and document safer methods of handling suspended loads to reduce/ if not eliminate pinch
points, “struck by” , “caught between” and other hand injury situations that occur due to unpredictable or unanticipated movement of suspended/supported loads. We have
seen some company actually list down each specific task - whether hands on or hands off - in activities associated with drilling, running casings, cementing or
logging, etc. Hands Free Lifting refers to personnel not touching a load (with any part of their body) that is connected to a mechanical lifting device and is
a key constituent of the hands-off policy.
Project Sales Corp has brought in products internationally recognized by oil drilling companies as a safer alternative and a key component of the hands off policy on
board drilling rigs. These would includes Shove-it, Fingersaver, Ergonomix, Saf-T-Guider, Helix Taglines, Retriever tool and more.
Forklifts are extremely useful workplace vehicles, as long as they are used safely and appropriately by operators who are appropriately trained and competent to use them.
Forklifts can be dangerous: they account for 25% of injuries at work. Many workplace accidents involve people being hit or run over by forklift trucks (typically when the forklift is reversing) because the driver did not see them. Owing to their size and weight, injuries resulting from forklifts are generally very serious. Accidents involving them are often caused by poor supervision and a lack of training.
Always:
Wear appropriate personal protective clothing as provided by employer. Hard hat, protective footwear and high visibility clothing are recommended as a minimum when working around forklifts. Other equipment may be needed depending on the working environment
Report defects immediately to supervisor
Make sure work path is free of obstructions
Wear operator restraints, where fitted
Look all around before moving off
Look in the direction of travel
Avoid sudden stops and violent braking
Take care when driving on wet, icy , slippery or loose surfaces Slow down at corners, doorways, and at danger spots
Sound the horn several times when approaching blind corners, exits and entrances
Switch off and remove the key before leaving the forklift. Place the key in a safe location when driving task is completed
Apply the parking brake before leaving the forklift
Report any accidents or near misses to a supervisor
Park the forklift in a safe place, on level ground; never on a slope
Leave the forklift with the mast tilted forwards and the forks fully lowered, with the tips on the floor
Apply the parking brake, select neutral, switch off the engine and remove the key
Return keys or other activating devices to their place of safe-keeping
Report any malfunctions or defects immediately to a supervisor.
Assess the load before lifting. Check weight, size, load centre and security
Make sure that pallets are in good condition
Observe floor loading limits & Travel slowly when going down slopes
Find out the weight of the laden forklift
Check safe working load (SWL) of racking before placing loads onto it
Make sure load does not obstruct view. If it does, drive in reverse, looking in direction.
Make sure there is adequate clearance for the forklift and load, including overhead
Make sure the load is stable, Carry the load as close to ground as possible, Use controls smoothly & arms are fully inserted when travelling with a load
Position forks properly and as widely as possible
Make sure the fork Make sure the forklift is stopped before raising the load
Use suitable attachments for lifting unusual or wide loads
Ensure the forks face uphill when travelling up or down slopes with a load
Ensure the forks face downhill when travelling up or down slopes without a load
Adjust the tilt (where fitted) to suit the gradient and raise the forks to clear the ground

Hands injury contributes to over 50% of all injuries in the workplace. Many injuries can be minimised if not eliminated with the use of the safer methods of handling suspended loads and use safer lifting apparatus, work practices and tools.
The objective of hands‐free lifting is to eliminate hand and finger injuries by removing them from the energy source – and avoid all caught between, struck‐by and struck‐against incidents.
Hands and fingers represent a tool that enables you to do wonderful things with them, and unfortunately there are no spare parts for these if you damage them.

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

11. The most important tool that money can’t buy from Project Sales
Corp is the Tool #1 – The Correct Mindset. Accepting and letting go
the natural reaction to go close and hold the rigging in place until
the tension is taken up to make sure the load is properly slung and
balanced needs to be changed. Remember the most hazardous
part of a lifting operation is lifting off and landing and its important
you are as far away from the load as possible.
Never touch a suspended load with
any part of your body.
12. Taglines are otherwise know as a guide line, guide rope, end line,
strap lines or pay off lines depending on which part of the world you
are in but the most common term for use of a piece of rope is “Tag
line”.
Tag lines or restraint lines must be used when rotation or swinging
of the load is or may become hazardous or if the load needs
guidance. In brief, loads requiring ontinuous manual guidance
while in motion shall be provided with tag lines, and required tag
lines must be used “on loads likely to swing or which need
guidance.”
Taglines must be used whenever any of the following occur:
1) The load suspended by the crane in a static (non‐ moving)
condition swings, or is likely to swing back and forth (due to wind or
other external factors), creating a control hazard. Not only for
the crane operator and banks man, but a landing and placement
hazard.
2) The movement of the crane or boom causes, or is likely to cause
the load to swing out of control, creating a hazardous condition.
3) The load rotates, has rotated, or is likely to rotate in such a
manner as to be out of control, creating a hazardous condition.
Taglines
When must Taglines be used?
13. Most commonly used material for a tagline is a polypropylene rope.
However this has several disadvantages,
• They tend to wrap around objects.
• They get caught in pinch points.
• The bottoms fray and are the knotted to stop the fraying causing
the line to catch.
• They get slick when worn, wet or dirty with grease.
FACT CHECK -
While lifting a load, a PP rope tagline wrapped around the left leg of
a worker. The crane operator lifted the load, pulling the worker up
15‐20 feet off the deck of the workboat until the tagline broke. The
worker landed on his back on top of a basket. He was transported to
the hospital and was later released back to work (light duty).
Tagline Materials - PP Ropes
14. Project Sales Corp has brought in the PSC LoadGuiderTM safety
tangle free Taglines to solve the problems associated with the use
of PP ropes. These taglines are specifically designed for the hands
free lifting applications. PSC LoadGuiders are tangle resistant as the
centre rope is wrapped with an outer layer of smaller diameter rope.
This resists the tagline turning on itself and wrapping around
objects or people. PSC LoadGuider Taglines are designed not to
catch on pinch points, as there are no knots or raised surfaces.
These are made in Iceland in technical cooperation with a major
drilling operator.

PSC SafeGuiderTM
High Viz Anti-Tangle Taglines
18. PSC TRT – A tool designed to safely retrieve taglines without a load
handler having to go too close to a suspended load.
PSC Tagline Retriever Tool is designed to help facilitate ‘hands‐free’
lifting and improve safety in handling taglines. The tool is a
modified aluminium telescopic boat hook with a rubber buffer at
the other end.
The hook end is used at full extension (approximately 2.1m/7ft) to
retrieve taglines hanging vertically without a load handler having to
go too close to a suspended load.
The rubber buffer is used to push against suspended loads to guide
them, especially when landing loads in tight or congested spaces.
Once again, this allows the operator to remain a safe distance from
the load until it has landed.
The poles would normally be fully retracted (for rigidity) during this
type of use where their length is 1.2m/4ft. However, they can be
used half‐extended if required but if too much pressure is applied,
they will telescope in.
