Setting the Tone for Safety (Behavior, Attitude and Responsibility)

Behavior, Attitude and Responsibility

By : BOULKSIBAT Ahmed Amine ;

Each year millions of warehouse and storage workers suffer injuries that are largely preventable.
But you can play a role in preventing accidents and in keeping off the injury list. Protect yourself against injuries by reviewing the leading causes of workplace injuries.

Avoiding Common Injuries Warehouse work can have anynumber of hazards, such as physical overload, impact accidents, falls or equipment accidents. If you know when and where to be cautious, you’ll see the benefit of acting with care on and off the job. 

Physical overload is the number one on-the-job injury. Learn the proper ways to lift and carry without bending or twisting and how to move objects from one place to another. 

Impact accidents can be avoided if you wear appropriate personal protection, are alert to potential hazards around equipment and follow established safety guidelines.

You need not be injured by falls if you’re aware of your balance, footing, lighting conditions and obstacles in walkways.

Use the BAR Exam Using safe work practices is not always easy, but it pays off in the long run. It helps to remember the acronym “BAR” when you think “safety.” BAR stands for safe Behavior, having a safe

Attitude, and taking Responsibility for your actions.

Safe Behavior means reacting properly to a situation. How do your reactions to situations affect your safety and the safety of your coworkers? What happens when guidelines aren’t followed, personal protective equipment isn’t used, questions aren’t asked or when shortcuts are taken?

Having a safe Attitude means approaching a situation properly.

Getting serious about safety practices means never horsing around on the job. Try to keep alert and

focused on your tasks. Avoid letting anger or frustration get in the way of your job performance.

Taking Responsibility means being accountable for your actions.

Safe workers keep equipment in good repair, clean up (or report) spills and debris, keep walkways

free from obstacles and store chemicals properly. Take pride in your neat and organized worksite.

What is WHMIS?

WHMIS is a short form for Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System. It is a comprehensive plan for providing information on the safe use of hazardous materials used in Canadian workplaces. Information is provided by means of product labels, material safety data sheets (MSDS) and worker education programs.

Types of energy

Energy may be of one or more of the following types:

Mechanical -- Rotating machinery
Potential-- Raised crane load, coiled spring; resulting in Kinetic energy -- falling or flying objects
Pressure (Pneumatic, Hydraulic, Acoustic) -- stored pressure that could be released.
Thermal -- High or low temperatures.
Chemical -- Toxic or corrosive chemicals, reactants.
Electrical -- Energy that is used to operate equipment.
Radioactive – Energy that is used to provide power.

Why Risk Assessment?

Every activity you do has some risk attached to it.

-  Crossing the road

-  Driving

-  Skiing

-  Traveling in a plane

-  Sport

-  Climbing a ladder

-  Breaking a hydrocarbon line

-  Entering a confined space

The list can be endless and covers every part of your daily life

How Can You Reduce the Costs of Accidents at Work?

 Every working day in Great Britain at least one person is killed and over 6000 are injured at work.

Every year three quarters of a million people take time off work because of what they regard as workrelated illness. About 30 million work days are lost as a result.

Accidents and ill health are costly to workers and their families.

They can also hurt companies because, in addition to the costs of personal injuries, they may incur far greater costs from damage to property or equipment, and lost production.

Managing Health and Safety - Five Steps to Success:

The HSE highlight five steps to success:

• Set your policy
  
• Organise your staff
  
• Plan and set standards
