- The investigation process involves an initial response, gathering information through interviews and other sources, analyzing the data to determine causes, taking or recommending actions, and writing a report with follow up.
- Gathering factual information is important to understand what really occurred rather than making assumptions. Interviews should be conducted separately and in a non-accusatory manner
H2 s hydrogen sulphaide
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a colorless, flammable gas with a rotten egg smell that occurs naturally in petroleum and natural gas deposits. It is also produced by bacterial breakdown of organic matter and human/animal wastes. Industrial activities like oil drilling, sewage treatment, and paper mills can release H2S. It is heavier than air, flammable, and toxic even at low levels with prolonged exposure. Inhalation is the primary exposure risk, as it can cause respiratory irritation and is potentially fatal at high concentrations. Proper ventilation and respiratory protection are required when working with or rescuing people from H2S environments.
The importance of safety
Employee safety is a top concern for responsible organizations. Not only can safety incidents result in injuries or loss of life, but they also negatively impact an organization's finances, reputation, and ability to attract employees. Companies minimize risk by building a strong safety culture where safety is a top priority and accidents are unacceptable. This improves employee morale, productivity, and the bottom line. Every person deserves to go to work and return home safely each day. Workplace injuries have far-reaching impacts on families, coworkers and communities. Prioritizing safety reduces costs from injuries, increases worker loyalty, and improves product quality. A successful safety culture requires commitment from all levels of the organization.

Barricade tape, also known as caution tape or warning tape, is a brightly colored plastic tape used to warn people of hazards. It acts as a minor barrier to prevent accidental access to dangerous areas and enhances safety. Common types include construction tape for work zones, hazard tape for toxic chemicals, traffic control tape to redirect vehicles, and police tape to preserve crime scenes. Barricade tape comes in standardized colors according to OSHA and ANSI regulations to indicate different classes of hazards, such as yellow and black for physical dangers or magenta and yellow for radiation risks. It is made of durable materials like polyethylene or nylon and varies in thickness and width depending on the manufacturer and intended use.
Near miss
Near misses are unplanned events that under slightly different circumstances could have resulted in injury, property damage, or environmental harm, but did not. Reporting near misses allows organizations to understand how accidents could have happened and to prevent future accidents. There are several factors that can lead to near misses, including unsafe conditions, lack of safety procedures or training, improper tools, risk-taking behaviors, and human error. To improve near miss reporting, organizations should establish a just culture that encourages reporting without punishment, publicize corrective actions taken, share lessons learned, communicate actions taken in response to reports, and track near misses as a leading indicator of safety performance.

Industrial activities like oil refining, wastewater treatment, and paper mills can release H2S. The gas is heavier than air, flammable, and toxic even at low concentrations through inhalation of fumes. High concentrations can cause shock or death from a single breath. Proper ventilation and respiratory protection are required when working with or rescuing people from H2S environments.
Respirator protection
Workers should only use respirators for protection from airborne contaminants when other hazard control methods are not possible or practical. Respirators should not be the first choice for protection and should only be used temporarily, such as during maintenance or repairs. There are two main classes of respirators - supplied-air respirators, which provide clean breathing air from an external source, and air-purifying respirators, which filter contaminants from the air. Proper selection and use of respirators requires identifying hazards, assessing exposures, selecting the appropriate type, training workers, and having a written respiratory protection program.
Tick bite ; first aid
- Ticks can transmit infections like Lyme disease depending on location, season, tick species, and how long attached. The risk of infection from a single tick bite is low.
- Lyme disease bacteria lies dormant in ticks' guts until they take a blood meal, at which point the bacteria enters the ticks' saliva and gets transmitted to the host.
- For Lyme disease transmission from a deer tick, it must be attached for over 36 hours to pass the bacteria from its blood meal.
Working violance
Workplace violence can range from threats to physical assaults and is one of the leading causes of job-related deaths. Some workers are at higher risk, such as those who work alone, work with money or valuable property, or work in healthcare or community settings with extensive public contact. Employers can help protect employees by establishing a zero-tolerance violence policy, conducting workplace violence training, securing the workplace, providing personal safety devices for field staff, and developing policies for home healthcare visits. Employees should learn to recognize and avoid dangerous situations, report any safety concerns, and avoid traveling alone whenever possible. Following an incident, employers should provide medical treatment, report to police, inform victims of legal rights, discuss circumstances with employees, and offer counseling

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Hazchem codification
- 1. HAZCHEM CODIFICATION HAZCHEM Code is based on pictorial representations consist of a diamond, as shown in the figure, divided into 4 parts. These parts, starting from left block (in clockwise direction), represent Health Hazard, Flammability Hazard, Reactivity Hazard and Space for additional information such as water reactivity, oxidant and radiation hazard. The colour codes for these hazards are : blue for health, red for flammability, yellow for reactivity and colourless for additional information. The intensity of hazard is grouped into five classes with numerical indications as 0, 1, 2, 3 & 4 in the ascending order of hazard intensity. In the following lines, these hazard intensities are explained, with the numeral on the left indicating the hazard intensity.
- 2. HAZCHEM CODE Flammability (Red) Health (Blue) Reactivity (Yellow) W OXY W : Indicates possible hazard in use of water. OXY: Indicates oxidizing chemicals.
