Solution
Answer1. Under the OSHA law, employers have a responsibility to provide a safe workplace.
Provide a workplace free from serious recognized hazards and comply with standards, rules and
regulations issued under the OSHA Act.
Examine workplace conditions to make sure they conform to applicable OSHA standards.
Make sure employees have and use safe tools and equipment and properly maintain this
equipment.
Provide medical examinations and training when required by OSHA standards and many other
OSHA standards.
Answer2. OSHA\'s standard for first aid training at Construction site
In the absence of an infirmary, clinic, or hospital in near proximity to the workplace which is
used for the treatment of all injured employees, a person or persons shall be adequately trained to
render first aid. Adequate first aid supplies shall be readily available.
The primary requirement addressed by these standards is that an employer must ensure prompt
first aid treatment for injured employees, either by providing for the availability of a trained first
aid provider at the worksite, or by ensuring that emergency treatment services are within
reasonable proximity of the worksite.
Answer3. The OSHA standards are divided into four major categories based on the type of work
being performed:agriculture(1928), construction (Part 1926), general industry (Part 1910) and
maritime (Part 1918).
The construction standard states that fall protection is required when an employee is working on
a walking/working surface (horizontal and vertical surface) with an unprotected side or edge
which is six feet or more a.

Behaviour-Based Safety: The blame game
An entire department is given bingo cards. The game continues until someone in that department reports a work related injury or illness. At that time, everyone has to turn in his or her markers and the game starts over. Imagine the pressure on the poor worker who slices his or her finger or suffers some type of sprain, not to report an injury, because a co-worker is about to reach BINGO and win the VCR or microwave oven.
Sound familiar? Scenarios such as this are growing in frightening proportions as more and more workplaces are adopting behaviour-based safety programs as part of their health and safety arsenal. UFCW Canada opposes this type of so called Health and Safety program as this type of program also encourages workers to spy on their co-workers for working in an unsafe manner

2. Safety in the workplace is an important issue
for small businesses. With the rising cost of
workers' compensation insurance and the
need to keep employees happy and
healthy, taking precautions to reduce
workplace accidents is a vital part of running
a small business. No matter what industry
you are in, workers have the potential of
being injured. By following set protocols and
identifying potential risks, you can reduce the
number of accidents and make the
workplace safer.
2
3. One of the social consequences of work-
related musculo-skeletal disorders
(MSDs) is a decrease in workers' ability to
provide care to family outside of work.
Study participants reported a significant
reduction in the amount of time spent in
unpaid caregiving activities while they
recovered from a work-related MSD.
3
4. Injury is damage to a biological organism
which can be classified on various bases
4
6. There are five categories of incidents you
may have to report on:
Near miss – an incident or accident in
which a person just avoids being injured
Damage to plant or equipment – a serious
occurrence but one in which n-one is hurt
Minor injury – this could highlight a more
serious safety problem
Major injury – a serious incident
Work-related travel injury – occurs while a
worker is travelling to or from work
6
7. Workplace injuries can happen to anyone in any
field, which is why even small offices carry workers’
comp insurance. If you are hurt at work in the course of
your duties, your company’s workers’ comp benefits
may cover the cost of your care. To ensure your ability
to receive coverage however, you must follow proper
procedures from the moment a workplace injury
occurs.
7
8. In cases of serious injury requiring immediate
treatment, you may inform your employer after
your situation has stabilized. If
possible, however, you should notify your
employer in writing prior to seeking treatment.
Workers’ comp insurance plans vary, and some
may require you to see a specific provider or
undergo certain tests. Seeking treatment without
following these guidelines can hurt your ability to
receive workers’ compensation benefits.
8
9. Both you and your employer should write down
every relevant detail throughout the process of filing
your workers’ compensation claim. If your workers’
compensation insurance policy has restrictions,
your employer is required by law to outline those for
you. This can be done verbally, but must be backed
up in writing within a specific time frame. This is
usually a week or less, but laws vary by state.
9
10. Although state laws are different, your ability to
receive workman’s compensation for an on-the-job
injury is protected nationally. If you follow
procedure by documenting everything and visiting
only approved providers and your employer still
attempts to deny your claim, you may require a
workers’ comp lawyer.
10
11. Ideally your workplace injury will be covered and
your medical bills paid without too much
hassle, however that isn’t necessarily the case. For
example, carpal tunnel and other repetitive use
injuries, by their nature, can’t be reported at the
moment they begin. A workers’ comp lawyer can
expertly help you obtain and organize your medical
records to prove your diagnosis resulted from a
workplace injury.
11
12. If your employer attempts to dissuade you from
filing a claim, consider this a red flag, and consult a
workers’ comp lawyer. Your boss may say that the
health insurance he provides should cover your
workplace injury, but it usually won’t. Health care
providers are trained to recognize workplace
injuries, and these will be denied by health
insurance if there is another insuring body
responsible.
12
13. Reducing Workplace Injuries: What
You Should Know?
Injuries that occur on the job or in the place of work
are costly in many ways. For one, of course, there is
the monetary cost. Work place injuries take money to
pay for and depending on the injury or how it
occurred, that cost will likely fall – either directly or
indirectly through such things as increased insurance
costs – on the shoulders of the employer. Either
way, there is more than just the cost of paying for the
immediate treatment of the injury to think about.
13
14. Workplace Injury Prevention:
Clear all physical obstacles:
Don’t let something that would have been easily preventable now
become something that is difficult to deal with later. Make sure there are
no cords across walkways, slick floors that could have water spilled on
them and become a slippery hazard, etc.
Mix up tasks for employees:
Give people some variety in their daily life at work. Not only will it
stimulate their minds better but it will keep them from getting a repetitive
stress injury. This can apply to both people who have to do heavy lifting
every day to keep them from hurting their backs or desk workers.
Have an on-site clinic and medical staff:
Even if it’s only a small facility, having a well-stocked on-site work clinic
with a properly trained doctor or nurse available to treat minor injuries or
medical emergencies can be a great help to keep a small issue from
becoming a big one. At the very least, ensuring the proper medical
equipment are on hand is a must.
Properly train all employees:
With proper training you’re doing your due diligence to keep your
employees safe. Have monthly meetings to teach new
practices, monitor the safety of employees regularly, discipline
employees who are not taking proper precautions, and developing the
proper manuals for new employees to gain information about your
safety practices.
14
15. By law the types of injuries that must be reported include:
Injury that results in the death of an employee
Fracture of the skull, spine or pelvis
Fracture of any bone in the arm or leg
Loss of sight
Injury resulting in a likely absence from work of 10 or more
working days

17. Workplace risks and hazards:
Workplace RISK is defined as the chance
of something occurring that will result in
injury or damage
Workplace HAZARDS are those things in
the workplace that pose a risk to you
and/or your work colleagues
17
18. Hazards that office workers could be exposed
to include anything that is a source of:
Potential harm in terms of human injury
or ill health
Damage to property
Damage to the environment
18
19. Some of the more general sources of
potential harm in an office setting may
include:
Cramped working conditions
Extreme temperatures
Inefficient fire and emergency
procedures
Lifting heavy loads
Overwork
Poor lighting
Poor designed workstations
19
20. Gender
Females were
up to 9 times
more likely to
be MD with
MSI than
males.
Training Load
Only 43% of
‘Paras’
completed
training, with
14.4% MD due to
MSI.
Aerobic Fitness
Least fit 20% of
trainees were ~3
times more likely
to be MD with
MSI.
Heat Stress
In excess of 100 military
trainees were admitted to
hospital each year following
an Exertional Heat Illness
(EHI) in UK training.
20
21. Anything that might cause injury or ill health to
anyone in your workplace is a HAZARD
Electricity is a hazard – risk someone may
receive a shock if it is incorrectly wired or wiring
is exposed
Toxic chemical is a hazard – risk that a person
may be poisoned, burned or suffer breathing
problems
Manual handling is a hazard – risk that a
person may sprain their back if it is not done
according to correct procedures and guidelines
21
22. How can hazards arise?
Inappropriate or ineffective
management systems and
procedures
Poor work practices
The work environment
Poorly trained employees
Poorly maintained equipment
22
23. Biological – includes
bacteria, viruses, spillages of blood, dressings
and waste fumes, insects
Chemical – acids, poisons, cleaning
agents, fumes
Mechanical and/or electrical –
equipment, plant and machinery
Physical – includes
floors, stairs, steps, ladders, fire, falling
objects, slippery surfaces, manual
handling, excessively loud and prolonged
noise, poor lighting, ventilation, threatening
customers or patients
Psychological – includes workplace stressors
arising from a variety of sources such as
workplace bullying, conflict and poor time
management
23
24. Extension cords running across the floor
– WHAT IS THE RISK?
Boxes and cartons stacked in front of
the fire
escape – WHAT IS THE RISK?
The fire door is locked – WHAT IS THE
RISK?
The chair has a wobbly leg – WHAT IS
THE RISK?
24
25. Methods of identifying hazards ( formal
procedures):
People forming teams to perform
inspections
Analysing incident reports
Writing reports
25
26. Five types of activities to controlling risks:
Hazard identification – finding the hazards that already
exist in your organisation
Hazard elimination – reducing the potential for accidents
to occur
Training – Induction training to show workers how to
operate machinery/equipment safely and to eliminate risks
Monitoring – constantly checking to see that safe work
practices are been followed and procedures are updated
when required
Reporting – Informing and writing down all OH&S issues
when they occur
26
27. Personal Protective Equipment ( PPE)
Designed to protect workers from direct
exposure to body fluids, potentially
infectious materials, harmful agents in the
work environment
Essential you use PPE correctly
PPE could include
•overalls to protect body from hazardous
substances
•Safety boots
•Safety gloves/helmets/masks and goggles
•Ear muffs for use in noisy environment
