COURSE DESCRIPTION

Working in confined spaces is a high-risk activity and has beenresponsible for many work-related deaths. Legislation requires that allpersons with work activities related to confined space/s mustundertake appropriate training and be assessed as competent, toperform those activities in accordance with OSHA 1994 & INDUSTRYCODE OF PRACTICE (ICOP) for safe working in a Confined Space2010.

NIOSH Confined Space Awareness Seminar delivers essentialknowledge to any individual who may work around confined spaces.Examples of confined spaced include storage tanks, boilers, sewers,excavations, manholes, tunnels, and open top spaces more than fourfeet in depth, such as pits, vaults, and vessels.

The hazards that exist and that are met when entering and working ina confined space are capable of causing injury, illness and death.Often accidents occur because a hazard goes unrecognized. In effect,the confined space is a hazard, and must be treated as such. Whenworking around a confined space it is necessary to be aware of thedangers that exist in and around the confined space area.

How hazardous substance hurt

There are several ways that hazardous substances can enter your body.InhalingThe chemical vapors, dusts and fumes you breathe can irritate your nose, mouth and lungs. They can also damage your internal organs.AbsorptionYou can absorb damaging chemicals directly through your skin. Or they can be splashed into your eyes. Chemicals can also enter through cracks and cuts on your skin.IngestionYou can accidentally take in damaging chemicals as you eat food or drink beverages that have been contaminated by chemicals in the air. You can also ingest them if you smoke near chemicals.Hazardous chemicals that enter your body can cause skin irritation, breathing problems and serious illness.

The chemical vapors, dusts and fumes you breathe can irritate your nose, mouth and lungs.

In general, the greater the amount of a hazardous substance that enters your body, the more it can affect your body. The longer you are exposed to a hazardous substance, the more likely it is to affect you. It’s good to keep exposure to any hazardous substance as low as possible. Exposure can be:Acute HazardAn immediate and direct threat to your life. For example, breathing chlorine gas will cause severe lung irritation immediately

Chronic HazardRepeated exposure that occurs over months or years. For example, chronic or long-term exposure to a solvent such as benzene can cause blood disorders. Long-term exposure to other solvents can cause damage to your liver and nervous system.

It’s good to keep exposure to any hazardous substance as low as possible.


Warning labels

The container label for hazardous substanceshas information that can help you protectyourself. Report any torn or missing labels toyour supervisor, if you transfer substances fromone container to another, the new containershould also have a label. Labels contain thefollowing information:Basic WarningsThis includes: The identity of the chemical The substance name and brand or trade

name, if any The manufacturer’s name Any hazardous ingredients Signal Word For example, “Danger” (the most severehazard), “Warning” or “Caution” (the leastsevere hazard).Hazards Physical hazards (from explosion, corrosion,

spills, fire, etc.) Health hazards (may cause, cancer, birth

defects, kidney damage or skin damage, may be toxic or radioactive, etc.)

Book Description

Publication Date: July 16, 2010 | ISBN-10: 1439802319 | ISBN-13: 978-1439802311 | Edition: 1

Machines increasingly pervade the mining industry, reducing manual labor and raising production. While the use of new technologies such as remote control, vision enhancement technologies, continuous haulage, and automated equipment has grown, so has the potential for new health and safety risks. Written by leading experts from Australia and North America, Human Factors for the Design, Operation, and Maintenance of Mining Equipment covers the impact of new mining technology on human work performance and safety.

Ergonomics experts Tim John Horberry, Robin Burgess-Limerick, and Lisa J. Steiner draw on their personal experience to provide up-to-date research, case studies, and examples, making the book useful, accurate, informative, and easy to read. They set the scene with a general, yet fundamental review of human factors information related to equipment. They then examine the physical environment and the importance of key concerns such as vibration, noise, heat, and dust in maintaining and operating mining equipment. The authors expand their scope by examining wider organizational and task factors related to mining equipment, including the long-standing issues of operator fatigue and stress as well as newer concerns such as distraction and information overload.

MERU: "Mesin membuat barangan elektronik yang sedang digunakan tiba-tiba meletup menyebabkan semua pekerja berhampiran lari dan tidak sempat menyelamatkan barang seperti dompet, telefon bimbit dan barangan berharga lain," kata seorang pekerja mengenai kebakaran sebuah kilang memproses barang kejuruteraan di Jalan Haji Salleh, di sini, petang semalam.

Pekerja yang enggan dikenali itu berkata, ketika kejadian jam 4 petang, pekerja kilang itu dikejutkan dengan letupan sebuah mesin yang beroperasi.

"Tiba-tiba sebuah mesin meletup menyebabkan api merebak dengan cepat ke mesin lain dan rakan sekerja tergamam sebelum masing-masing melarikan diri ke tempat selamat.

"Tapi, saya bersyukur kerana rakan sekerja sempat menyelamatkan diri dan tidak berlaku insiden yang tidak diingini seperti kecederaan dan kehilangan nyawa," katanya.

Pekerja itu berkata, kebakaran berpunca daripada mesin elektronik yang dipercayai sudah panas kerana terlalu lama digunakan untuk memproses barangan kejuruteraan.

Sementara itu, Ketua Bomba dan Penyelamat Zon Klang, Mohd Hamizal Ainuddin berkata, pihaknya menerima panggilan berkenaan kebakaran itu jam 4.04 petang sebelum sepasukan pegawai dan anggota dari Balai Bomba dan Penyelamat Sungai Pinang bergegas ketempat kejadian.

Headline : Budaya utama keselamatan


Bangi: Peningkatan kes kemalangan di tempat kerja dan ketika berulang-alik ke tempat kerja saban tahun mencetuskan rasa tanggungjawab Institut Keselamatan dan Kesihatan Pekerjaan Negara (NIOSH) menghebahkan maklumat mengenai keselamatan dan kesihatan pekerjaan secara lebih agresif dan holistik kepada golongan sasar.

Melalui kerjasama strategik dengan akhbar harian nombor satu negara, Harian Metro (HM), mulai hari ini maklumat mengenai keselamatan dan kesihatan pekerjaan disiarkan menerusi artikel atau grafik yang diterbit dalam akhbar ini pada setiap Jumaat.

Pengerusi NIOSH Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye berkata, selaras jumlah pembaca HM yang majoritinya belia bekerja, beliau terpanggil menjalin kerjasama itu dengan objektif utama membudayakan amalan keselamatan dan kesihatan pekerjaan.

"Justeru, kerjasama ini diharap mampu mendidik masyarakat termasuk suri rumah mengenai penjagaan keselamatan dan kesihatan ketika bekerja dalam apa juga sektor," katanya pada sidang media selepas melancarkan Kerjasama Info Keselamatan dan Kesihatan Pekerjaan Antara HM dan NIOSH bersama Pengarang Kumpulan HM Datuk Mustapa Omar di ibu pejabat NIOSH di sini, semalam.

Mustapa berkata, pelaksanaan tanggungjawab sosial korporat (CSR) HM itu diteruskan dan kakitangan HM sendiri diharap memanfaatkan maklumat yang ada untuk keselamatan mereka.

Headline : Perluas kempen keselamatan di tempat kerja


Kuala Lumpur: Usaha membudayakan keselamatan dan kesihatan di tempat kerja perlu dipertingkat bagi melahirkan sebuah masyarakat yang peka dan bertanggungjawab terhadap keselamatan diri.

Bagi mencapai tujuan itu, Pengerusi Institut Keselamatan dan Kesihatan Pekerjaan Negara (NIOSH), Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye, berkata usaha mempromosinya juga perlu sentiasa dilakukan dan dihebah kepada sasaran khususnya pekerja.

Beri manfaat kepada industri

Katanya, amalan itu berupaya mendedahkan mereka mengenai kepentingan mengutamakan keselamatan diri sekaligus memberi manfaat kepada industri khususnya dari segi produktiviti pekerja.

"Sehingga Oktober tahun lalu, 51,664 kes nahas di tempat kerja direkod Pertubuhan Keselamatan Sosial (PERKESO).

"Walaupun jumlah itu menunjukkan penurunan berbanding 2011 iaitu 59,897 kes, tidak bermakna usaha mempromosikan amalan keselamatan menunjukkan kejayaan dan tidak harus diteruskan," katanya berucap merasmikan Info Keselamatan dan Kesihatan Pekerjaan Di Tempat Kerja anjuran bersama NIOSH dan akhbar Harian Metro, di sini, semalam.
