Task
In this Unit of Competency we learnt that it is common practice for organisations to adopt the “Six Step Approach” to develop and implement a Work health and Safety Management System (WHSMS).
As you discovered, an organisation’s WHS Policy forms the “corner stone” of the WHSMS and clearly states the organisation’s commitment to WHS and identifies the initiatives that will be taken to ensure a safe work environment is provided to all persons working in, serviced by, or visiting the workplace.
For part A of this Assessment you are required to write one (1) WHS Program or Procedure that aims to fulfil the goals set by an Organisation’s WHS Policy.
To successfully complete this task you must:
1. Read the following example WHS Policy for “Big Corp Travel”.
2. Select one (1) of the WHS programs or procedures listed in the WHS Policy for this tourism company and prepare (write) a detailed program or procedure that can be included in the Organisation’s WHS Programs manual.
3. Your WHS Program/Procedure must contain and address the following paragraph headings:
· WHS Program/Procedure title (name).
· Purpose and objectives (what does the program/procedure aim to achieve?)
· Scope (who does this program/procedure apply to? Departments and personnel)
· Program/Procedure (outline the steps in the program – what, where, how)
· Implementation Strategies (how will the program be implemented and communicated to staff?)
· Monitoring and Evaluation (how will the program be monitored and evaluated?)

Course Learning Outcomes for Unit V
Upon completion of this unit, students should be able to:
1. Identify and discuss different types of factors that impact development
and maintenance of comprehensive safety and health plans.
2. Explain and differentiate between the roles and responsibilities for
maintaining a safe work environment at the management, supervisor,
and employee levels.
3. Identify methods of communicating safety and health plans to
employees.
Unit Lesson
Companies have a responsibility to themselves and their employees to derive
and uphold safety and health standards. The Occupational Safety and Health
Administration is very specific about what should be included in a company’s
safety and health standards. Ethical, regulatory, economic, and practical factors
determine why a construction company develops a comprehensive written safety
and health plan. Components of a good safety and health plan should include
safety and health policies, goals, roles and responsibilities, procedures,
inspections, training, and emergency responses. All employers and employees
should work together to prevent the possibilities of accidents. Since everyone
has a role and a responsibility to help ensure a safe working environment,
management, supervisors, and employees play important roles that interconnect
on the work site.
Job-site inspections are an important component of a company’s overall safety
and health program (Goetsch, 2010). Inspections are a proactive approach to
auditing a work-site and ensuring the safety and health of the employees.
Accident, record keeping, and training are all key factors in working with a safety
and health plan. The last step, communicating the plan to the employees,
integrates the objectives of the safety and health plan with an effective strategy
to include the following:
face to face training,
new employee orientations,
signs and posters, and
audio and video training.
It is important to set a positive example on the job-site for all employees in order
to show that 1) safety and health are very important in construction safety and
2) that all levels of employees at the job-site are to work together for an efficient
and positive outcome with regards to the safety and health of all employees.

The following presentation describes the best practices present along with the principles and approaches to implementing and maintaining a safety and health program for a construction firm.
OSHA recognizes that a wide variety of small and large construction job sites exist. Some are short-duration, while others may take years to complete; some sites are
characterized by frequently changing conditions, while other sites’ conditions may change less often. An effective program emphasizes top-level ownership, participation by employees, and a “find and fix” approach to workplace hazards.
The “find and fix” approach to workplace hazards refers to the “Hazard Identification” and “Hazard Prevention and Control” core elements. Because of the wide variety of site conditions, these two core elements should be implemented on a site specific basis in order to effectively detect and correct hazards.
The concept of continuous improvement is central to these recommended practices. As with any journey, the first step is often the most challenging. The idea is to begin with a basic program and grow from there. By initially focusing on achieving modest goals, monitoring performance, and evaluating outcomes, you can help your company progress over time along the path to higher levels of safety and health.
This presentation dives into six of the core OSHA regulations that must exist in written form. These programs include: Bloodborne Pathogens, Emergency Action, Fire Prevention, Hazard Communication, Respiratory Protection, Lockout/Tagout. Find out what needs to be included in these written programs to stay compliant.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

“Responsible employers know that the main goal of a safety and health program is to prevent workplace injuries, illnesses, and deaths, as well as the suffering and financial hardship these events can cause for workers, their families, and their employers.
Employers may find that implementing these recommended practices brings other benefits as well. The renewed or enhanced commitment to safety and health and the cooperative atmosphere between employers and workers have been linked to:
Improvements in product, process, and service quality.
Better workplace morale.
Improved employee recruiting and retention.
A more favorable image and reputation (among customers, suppliers, and the community). ”
Ask the class: What are some of the ways that management can show their support of a safety program?
Ask the class; Has anyone ever been involved with the safety program or team as a laborer or in a management position? How did the safety team involve you?
The instructor should click on the hazard identification training tool picture to bring up the website. The instructor then has the capability to play through the scenarios to allow the student to sharpen their identification skills. At least 3 of the OSHA Visual Inspection Training should be played.
Ask the class; What are ways that a group of workers can improve on their hazard identification?
Ask the class; What is the hierarchy of controls and how to you mitigate hazards using this?
Ask the class; What types of training have you received as a worker, and do you know what types of training are required by OSHA?
Ask the class; Do you often work beside other contractors? Has there ever been a situation where you weren’t sure what the other contractor was doing or believed their work to be hazardous?

“Effective controls protect workers from workplace hazards; help avoid injuries, illnesses, and incidents; minimize or eliminate safety and health risks; and help employers provide workers with safe and healthful working conditions. The processes described in this section will help employers prevent and control hazards identified in the previous section.”
“Involve workers, who often have the best understanding of the conditions that create hazards and insights into how they can be controlled.”
https://www.osha.gov/shpguidelines/docs/OSHA_SHP_Recommended_Practices.pdf
“Employers should select the controls that are the most feasible, effective, and permanent.
How to accomplish it:
Eliminate or control all serious hazards (hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm) immediately.
Use interim controls while you develop and implement longer-term solutions.
Select controls according to a hierarchy that emphasizes engineering solutions (including elimination or substitution) first, followed by safe work practices, administrative controls, and finally PPE.
Avoid selecting controls that may directly or indirectly introduce new hazards. Examples include exhausting contaminated air into occupied work spaces or using hearing protection that makes it difficult to hear backup alarms.
Review and discuss control options with workers to ensure that controls are feasible and effective.
Use a combination of control options when no single method fully protects workers.”
Source: https://www.osha.gov/shpguidelines/docs/OSHA_SHP_Recommended_Practices.pdf
“Use a hazard control plan to guide the selection and implementation of controls, and implement controls according to the plan.
Develop plans with measures to protect workers during emergencies and nonroutine activities.
Evaluate the effectiveness of existing controls to determine whether they continue to provide protection, or whether different controls may be more effective. Review new technologies for their potential to be more protective, more reliable, or less costly.”
Answer is broken ladder run, entire crew daily – because it is severe and most frequently used.
