INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION TO OSHATO OSHA

11

New engineering discipline System safety Accident causes:

personnel error malfunctions & failures of equipment dangerous characteristics of equipment adverse environmental conditions

Effects; Injuries and Fatalities Damage Losses and Reimbursement Effect on the National Economy

Millions per year

S&H : WHY IMPORTANT

WHAT DOES S&H INVOLVE Understanding engineering principles of process & system Risk avoidance and prevention Accident investigation

12

COVERAGE OF OSHA • All economic sectors, including the public services and

statutory authorities (Refer to Schedule 1)• Except those subjected to the Merchant Shipping Ordinance

and the armed forces• The systems and procedures focus on the following areas of

concern:

S&H training Using of toxic materials

Safe systems of work

Internal S&H mgmt.

Environmental ctrl.

Accident investigations

Machine guarding Safety committees Housekeeping Fire safety &

prevention Safe plant Medical & welfare Noise & dust

control Emergency

procedures

PROVISION OF OSHA Based on the self-regulation scheme. Its primary responsibility is to ensure safety

and health of work lies with those who create the risks and those who work with the risks.

The concept of self-regulation encourages cooperation, consultation and participation of employees and management in efforts to upgrade the standards of safety and health at the workplace.

Aims : establish effective safety and health organization and performance.

The OSHA is enforced by the Department of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH), a government department under the Ministry of Human Resources Malaysia.

14

MOTIVATION• In Malaysia, 3 sectors incur high rates of accidents;– Manufacturing– Trading– Agriculture, forestry & fishing

• App. 72% of total industrial accidents, which the small-scale enterprises accidents data are not included.

• Concept : – If that unsafe condition can be eliminated or suitably

controlled, there will be no accident even there is an error on the part of any personnel involved

• the best approach to providing safety and health at the workplace through ENFORCEMENT

• Therefore, the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1994 (Act 514) came into force in February 1994.

DefinitionSAFETYThe condition of being safe or freedom from harm and

injuryFor occupational study, it’s defined as a measure of the

acceptability of risk Simplified : injury-causing situation

HEALTHA state of complete physical, mental and social well

being and is not simply the absence of illness or disease - WHO

For occupational area, it’s refers to an attempts to maximize the individual capacity to live happily and productively

Simplified : disease-causing

16

BASIC TERMINOLOGY

A sequence of unplanned events which usually produces unintended injury, death or property damage.

Represent the number of injuries and/or illnesses per 100 full-time workers

Incidence rates

Accident

Incidence

An event that could result in injury, damage or other form of losses

Caught in or between : crushed between two moving machines

Struck by : impact or blow to the body by an object Struck against : walking into a door Fall to the same level : tripping on a level walkway Fall to a lower level : falling off a ladder Fall to a higher level : tripping while walking on the

steps Abraded, scratched, or punctured : an injury such as

hitting the face when falling Overexertion : sprains, strains, etc, caused by a

greater-than-average effort Contact with an energy : mechanical, kinetic,

electrical, chemical, thermal, gravity or radiation
