Preventing Dropped Objects Incidents

Lifting gear: Ensure it is in good condition

Correct size/rating

Not expired

Brakes are operable. Always check/test before use. Follow maintenance schedule.

Maintain/preserve the lifting gears properly. Improper maintenance will lead to

premature failure.

Ensure correct shackles are use and installed with split pins.

Secure tools when working on elevated platform

Have a proper tool holder/container

Put tarpaulin on top of scaffolding planks or gratings to prevent object slip through and

drop down to the deck below.

Carry out adequate work assessment to determine the best lifting/rigging

procedure.

Preventing Dropped Objects Incidents

Improve house keeping and storage: Do not leave tool or redundant material on elevated platform.

Barricade the area where overhead work took place.

Send tools to where it belong.

Do not mix a good and bad sling.

Do not mix various sizes of shackle in a single bin.

Arrange the storage properly. Do not overload the shelves.

Identify hanging equipment which have corroded bracket/support e.g. lighting,

speaker, gas detector, signage, etc., and raise work order to rectify

Temporary secure with chain/clamp

Ensure equipment used is compatible to work place environment/climate

Include dropped object hazards in TRA

Activity

Objective: To educate personnel on Dropped Objects in and around the workplace

Activity should take about 30 minutes

1. Split into groups and assign to various locations/modules at your work area.

2. Look for the Dropped Object or potential of Dropped Object Incident e.g. hanging

lighting fixture, unsecured materials on elevation, etc.

3. Take immediate action to rectify/eliminate hazards

4. What can you do to prevent recurrence of your findings?

5. Share your findings

6. Raise Hazards Improvement Card on any findings

14

Conclusion

Look out for potential of Dropped Object Incident. React to the surrounding activity.

Stay clear from suspended load.

Report all Dropped Object Incident, including potential incident, and learn from

the findings

15

Remember! Dropped object incident can beprevented through proper work plan and

maintenance program. Luck may not always bewith us.

WATCH OUT! Look up!
