“AS A SUPERVISOR YOU HAVE FAILED”
If an employee is injured on the job!!!!!!!
o You need to consider how you could have prevented the
accident.
o How did you allow a situation to develop that ultimately
resulted in the accident ?
HSE for Supervision

HOW DO THE COMPANIES MAINTAIN EXCELLENT SAFETY RECORS?
• Reduce the unsafe acts to keep them to
minimum.
• Unsafe Acts by People cause four times as
many accidents and injuries as unsafe
conditions.
HSE for Supervision

UNSAFE ACTS

UNSAFE CONDITIONS

 Poor planning and preparation
 Work environment
 Equipment
 People
THE CAUSE OF ACCIDENTS CAN ATTRIBUTE THE
FOLLOWING MAIN FACTORS
HSE for Supervision

 All Employees must be
trained how to do
their jobs properly.
 Should only be
assigned to tasks they
are capable of and
competent to perform.
PEOPLE TO HELP REDUCE ACCIDENTS
HSE for Supervision

 People take safety risks to save time and effort.
 Save time , Get the job done, Seems easiest way, Don’t have
the correct tools, lazy to get right equipment, supervisory
pressure or instruction, not trained or properly instructed,
unaware of the hazard, mind not on the job.
 Past experience “Always done it that way before nothing
happened “
WHY DO PEOPLE TAKE SAFETY RISKS?
HSE for Supervision

IMPORTANT
If you take risks enough times, the
chances are that eventually you or
someone else will be seriously injured by
your actions or inaction.
HSE for Supervision

Employee behaviour
Remember that employee Attitudes will
affect their behaviour
FOCUS! YOUR ATTENTION TO REDUCE UNSAFE ACTS
HSE for Supervision

What? Why? Where? When? & How?
 Supervisors should focus on behaviours.
 You influence the behaviour of those people under your
direction.
 Attitude are more difficult to identify.
SUPERVISORS MUST CONCENTRATE ON
HSE for Supervision

o Change the attitudes through slogans, posters or
incentive programs.
o Guess what a person's attitude is, since it
cannot be seen.
TRADITIONAL APPROACH OF MANY SAFETY PROGRAMS
HSE for Supervision

Modeling
Reward
Correction
TECHNIQUES USE TO POSITIVELY INFLUENCE
THE BEHAVIOR YOUR EMPLOYEES
HSE for Supervision

 Modeling means by which you demonstrate
the proper technique for doing a job.
 This occurs when people behave in a way
that other people can imitate.
MODELING
HSE for Supervision

SUPERVISORS ARE THE ROLE MODELS!!!!
Supervisors day to day actions are observed
by the employees with whom they work and
it is from those actions that employees take
their clues for how to behave in the
workplace.
 Say what you do.
 Do what you say.
 You as a supervisor must lead by
example.
HSE for Supervision

Tell employees that they should work safely, wear
the correct PPE and they see you without Gloves or
Safety harness, you have sent a mixed message.
You said one thing but did another
SUPERVISORS, AS A ROLE MODEL,
SENDING MIXED MESSAGES.
HSE for Supervision

o Rewarding employees for performing a task correctly is a
method to used to improve safety.
o Any reward given to employees must be suitable.
o Example:- Telling an employee if he finishes the job early he
will be rewarded, encourages short cuts and creates unsafe
behaviour and practices.
Is rewards important?
REWARDS
HSE for Supervision

Five steps to correct an employee ?
o Specifically IDENTIFY the unsafe act or condition you see and
want corrected .
o Don’t be apologetic. If an employee denies a problem exists,
firmly RESTATE your position.
o INFORM the employee of the correct method you want used.
o CHECK to be sure the employee understands the required
change in behaviour.
o EMPHASIZE the importance of the employee’s safety to you
and the company.
CORRECTION
HSE for Supervision

Don’t turn a blind eye
to unsafe acts!!!
• We should never IGNORE
unsafe acts.
• To ignore is to say
“You have my approval”
ESSENTIAL PRINCIPLES

TOOLS FOR HSE SUPERVISION
HSE for Supervision

HSE Management Systems provides several tools to ensure
any action is performed properly according to the real needs
Tool-Box Meeting
o Main tool for HSE Supervisor to identify
potential hazards related with a scheduled
work
o Effective mean to improve workers’
concern on HSE matters and risks involved
in their activities
HSE for Supervision

HSE for Supervision
Tool-Box Meetings
• The superior or on-site Supervisor uses Tool-Box Meetings
to instruct their team on:
o The work to be carried out and the potential hazards
associated with that work
o Precautions to perform actions correctly, safely and taking
care of the environment
• What makes a Tool-Box Meeting being successful:
o Be available before the start-up of the task and conducted in a face-to-face
session
o Outline the actions to be done, break it down into steps and highlight key steps
o Emphasize critical safety precautions
o Ensure working team understands the work to be performed
o Summarize the HSE points covered and relevant questions before deploying the
workers to start the job

HSE Inspections
HSE for Supervision

HSE INSPECTIONS
• Objectives of HSE Inspections:
o Keep a continuous control of the working site status.
o Identify unsafe situations.
o Monitor deviations from safety standards.
o Recommend corrective and preventive measures.
o Ensure safety and environmental recommendations have been implemented.
• HSE Supervisor performs two kind of Inspections:
Informal: daily-routine basis and allow the supervisor to take corrective actions
straightaway.
Formal: specifically scheduled in a weekly or monthly basis according to the
target of the inspection.
HSE for Supervision

o A safety inspection is a thorough examination of the
workplace to ensure a safe work environment.
o Its purpose is to detect existing and potential hazards, which
can be corrected before an incident occurs. Safety
inspections can happen as often as every shift; or they can be
scheduled daily, weekly, monthly, or on some other regular
basis.
o A safety inspection program is a key element to a successful
safety management system. Conducting regular safety
inspections should be a part of every Supervisor’s
performance evaluation.
WHAT IS SAFETY INSPECTION ?
HSE for Supervision

Continuous inspections are generally done by supervisors
and foreman each time they pass through their area of
responsibility.
Supervisor is accountable for the safety of the workers
under their control; therefore they should be constantly
on the lookout for any hazards that might arise in the
work areas.
Supervisor should ensure that workers are carrying out
preoperational checks when and where they required.
HSE for Supervision

Management should, when ever possible, show their
commitment to the program by being involved in the
inspection process.
When management becomes part of the regular
inspection team, it will show commitment to the company
safety program.
HSE for Supervision

What must be inspected in the work place?
Safety hazards; e.g., inadequate machine guards, unsafe workplace
conditions, unsafe work practices, awkward postures arising from
improper work methods and improperly designed workstations, tools,
and equipment.
Chemical hazards caused by a solid, liquid, vapor, gas, dust, fume or mist.
Physical hazards caused by noise, vibration, energy, weather, heat, cold,
electricity, radiation and pressure.
How often?
Inspection must be done at intervals that will prevent the development
of unsafe working conditions.
Periodic inspection is a good way to formally identify hazards
HSE for Supervision

Risk Controls
HSE for Supervision

PRINCIPLE
Making the
workplace safe is
better than
protecting the
worker in a
dangerous one
Does the task need to be done?
e.g. eliminate manual handling by doing the job in-
situation.
Can something else be used to reduce the risk?
e.g. water-based instead of solvent-based paint
Can equipment be used to reduce the risk?
e.g. Local Exhaust Ventilation to remove fumes
Can distance/barriers/guards be used to prevent personnel
exposure to hazard?
e.g. distance barriers around high pressure testing
Can the number of personnel exposed to the risk and/or the
time they are exposed be reduced?
Can suitable and sufficient PPE appropriate for the task be used?
Can procedures be used to specify the safe system of work to follow to
reduce the risk?

• Includes procedures used in industrial facilities which ensure a
continuous information exchange and thorough control of any hazard
• Work Permits will be utilized for all kinds of works which involve
hazardous scenarios or a serious risk
 Excavations
 Confined Spaces
 X-rays
 Critical Lifting
 Hot Works (fire-risk involved)
 Whenever TR Safety Officer requires it

• PTW it is one of the barriers we can put in place
• The PTW system is a formal written procedure.
• This is a very important part of our company Management
system (HSEMS).
• It’s purpose is to co-ordinate, communicate, control and
record work activities to ensure a safe working environment.
WHAT IS A PERMIT TO WORK SYSTEM?
HSE for Supervision

HSE for Supervision
• The prime Objective of Al Hosn Gas PTW system is to ensure that
potentially hazardous work is properly controlled and
coordinated.
• PTW – Permit To Work
PERMIT TO WORK SYSTEM

HSE for Supervision
• It encourages formal and careful attention to safe system of
working by requiring the signature of specified individuals, who
must confirm satisfactory completion of the various stages of
permit life cycle.
• Hazard Assessment and Risk analysis
• Precautions and Controls
• Worksite Preparations
• Handover and Hand back

Risk Assessment
HSE for Supervision

Hazard is something with the potential to cause harm to people,
damage equipment or environment.
Risk is the likelihood that the harm will occur from exposure to the
hazard.
For example:
The hazard is electricity. The risk is the likelihood that a worker might be
electrocuted because of exposure to electrical wires that is inadequately
insulated.
The hazard is a 40 kg bag. The risk is the likelihood that a worker might suffer
back strain from manually lifting 40 kg bags.
The hazard is carbon monoxide. The risk is the likelihood that a worker might
suffer carbon monoxide poisoning because they are using a petrol operated
pump in a well.
WHAT IS HAZARD & RISK?
HSE for Supervision

Risk is the measurement of an undesired event, which has the
potential to cause adverse consequences upon:
People Injury or harm
Assets Damage to property
Environment Contamination of water, air, soil, animal,
plants and social consequences.
Reputation Attitude of the public and the business
community
RISK
HSE for Supervision

RISK ASSESSMENT
Risk assessment is nothing more than a careful examination of
what in your work, could cause harm to people, so that you can
weigh up whether you have taken sufficient precautions or
should do more to prevent harm.
HSE for Supervision

Accidents and illness can ruin lives and also seriously affect
your business.
such as:- lost output, damaged to machinery, increased
insurance costs, you may even have to go to court etc.
You are legally required to assess the risks in your work place.
THE AIM IS TO MAKE SURE THAT NO ONE GETS HURT OR
BECOMES ILL…
HSE for Supervision

The important thing you need to decide that
whether a hazard is significant and whether
you have it covered by satisfactory precautions
so that the risk is small.
For instance Electricity can kill but the risk of it
doing so in an office environment is remote,
provided that live components are insulated and
metal casings properly earthed.
HSE for Supervision

 Consider tasks, activities and situations.
 Identify hazards that are, or may be, involved.
 Identify those who may be exposed to the hazard,
including those particularly at risk.
 Analyze the risks of injury (severity and likelihood)
or loss from the hazards.
 Evaluate the risk and assess risk levels.
RISK ASSESSMENT
HSE for Supervision

 Consider measures that may eliminate or reduce
risk further in line with the basic principles of risk
control.
 Implement the risk control measures.
 Communicate control measures to staff and how
these will be integrated into their tasks.
 Monitor the measures of control.
 Review and introduce any corrective actions.

RISK ASSESSMENT
HSE for Supervision

Task Risk Assessment is a technique that focuses on job tasks
as a way to identify hazards before they occur. It focuses on
the relationship between the worker, the task, the tools, and
the work environment.
Ideally, after you identify uncontrolled hazards, you will take
steps to eliminate or reduce them to an acceptable risk level.
Task Risk Assessment is therefore a fundamental part of you
activities.
WHAT IS TASK RISK ASSESSMENT?
HSE for Supervision

Process
 Break down job into logical steps
 Identify hazards associated with each step
 Define risks associated with each hazard
 Identify methods to eliminate or control hazards
(Hierarchy of controls)
 Document results & obtain approval
 Obtain agreement by team, sign off & implement

Lock out / Tag out (LOTO)
HSE for Supervision

WHAT IS LOTO ?
• Lockout in another type of
protective barrier.
• It is a technique used to isolate
equipment and to prevent the
release of hazardous energy, or to
prevent the hazardous energy from
escaping.
• A padlock, blank or spade is placed
on the appropriate energy isolating
device that is in the off or closed
position.
HSE for Supervision

• Type of energy that may be released and
equipment that may require isolation.
• Electrical panels and distribution systems .
• Rotating machinery or equipment.

Accident / Incident Reporting
& Investigation
HSE for Supervision

Accidents occur for many reasons.
In most industries people tend to look
for "things" to blame when an accident
happens, because it's easier than
looking for "root causes”
HSE for Supervision

Taking Shortcuts: Every day we make decisions we hope will make
the job faster and more efficient. But do time savers ever risk your
own safety, or that of others? Short cuts that reduce your safety on
the job are not shortcuts, but an increased chance for injury.
Being Over Confident: Confidence is a good thing. Overconfidence is
too much of a good thing. "It'll never happen to me" is an attitude
that can lead to improper procedures, tools, or methods in your
work. Any of these can lead to an injury.
COMMON ACCIDENT CAUSES
HSE for Supervision

Starting A Task With Incomplete Instructions: To do the job
safely and right the first time you need complete information.
Have you ever seen a worker sent to do a job, having been given
only a part of the job's instructions? Don't be shy about asking
for explanations about work procedures and safety precautions.
It isn't dumb to ask questions; it's dumb not to.
HSE for Supervision

Poor Housekeeping: When visitors, managers or safety professionals
walk through your work site, housekeeping is an accurate indicator of
everyone's attitude about quality, production and safety. Poor
housekeeping creates hazards of all types. A well maintained area sets
a standard for others to follow. Good housekeeping involves both pride
and safety.
Ignoring Safety Procedures: Purposely failing to observe safety
procedures can endanger you and your co-workers. You are being paid to
follow the safety policies - not to make your own rules. Being "casual"
about safety can lead to a casualty!
HSE for Supervision

Failure To Pre-Plan The Work: There is a lot of talk today about Risk
Management. RM is an effective way to figure out the smartest ways
to work safely and effectively. Being hasty in starting a task, or not
thinking through the process can put you in harms way. Instead, Plan
Your Work and then Work Your Plan!
Mental Distractions From Work: Having a bad day at home and
worrying about it at work is a hazardous combination. Dropping your
'mental' guard can pull your focus away from safe work procedures.
You can also be distracted when you're busy working and a friend
comes by to talk while you are trying to work. Don't become a
statistic because you took your eyes off the machine "just for a
minute."
HSE for Supervision

Accident investigations determine how and why these
failures occur.
Accident investigations are a tool for supervisors and
accident investigation teams to find main causes of illnesses,
injuries, and “near misses” allowing for corrective actions.
Accident Investigation is a process of determining the
causes of accidents and implementing corrective actions
to prevent recurrence.
