Fundamental to safety!

@safetitude: In continuation to the previous post on how to improve safety, I'm putting forth one fundamental tool to start with. The new approach to safety has always focused on to the aspects that address behaviors.  Behaviors that go against the safety are not only demonstrated by workmen but also by highers-up in their respective domain. The prime objective of Safety management is to run programs that help every employee realize their responsible (more than the duty) for safety. That is why it becomes fundamental to take inventory of At-Risk-Behaviours (ARBs) at every level and to make a strategical intervention from a wide range of available safety programs. A sample worksheet attached herewith will help to get the direction and lead to adopting an action plan of short as well as of long-term period. As usual, I would love to answer your query, if any.

@safetitude: 6-Steps Total Safety Culture Model Further, an extension to 2 earlier posts that intended to enhance Safety performance and to build and establish a Total Safety Culture (TSC), this is one proprietary designed model as a guide to the journey. The strategy can be started with a small model with a selection of a change agent ( a worker with right safety attitude and zealous to take forward) and making him work through various stages of the model. Once one cycle is established, this can be repeated on the bigger scale until every worker in a business unit is covered. This also can be extended to higher management members in a later phase of implementation.

                                                     S A F E T I T U D E Arc Flash Boundary (AFB) Electrical related accidents are most severest one owing to its invincible and fatal-result characteristics. The extensive use of electricity almost everywhere as risk-escalating factor makes the things even worse. It is important to know that working on live low voltage (220V) installation is not alone dangerous but also working near live energized one is equally risky. Therefore, an understanding of Arc Flash Boundary becomes of prime importance. The following brief knowledge help you understand about AFB An energy exposure of 1.2 calories per centimeter squared (Cal/cm2) is the widely accepted incident energy value considered to be where the onset of a second-degree burn could occur. The AFB must be determined as part of an arc flash risk assessment and a requirement for arc flash labels. It can be calculated using an equation defined by IEEE 1584—IEEE Guide for Performing Arc Flash Haz
