I am Paul prepared this report follows the health and safety inspection of one of the biggest
construction projects of Shoba Developers a leading real estate company in India and abroad has the
upcoming project as Shoba Terrain at Devanahalli Bangalore which comprises of three phases,
warehouse and administrative building which had both indoor and outdoor activities and its spread
over 20 acres located at Devanahalli, Bangalore north which is close to our Bangalore International
airport. The inspection took place on 28 march 2014 between 1000 and 1300hrs.
Phase-I and II each comprises of 12 floors and have 460 apartments where the indoor activities such
as painting ,drilling , plumbing, and electrical connection are happening and it is almost in the
handover stage.
Phase-III is at the initial stage of construction where the main outdoor activities such as excavation,
building concrete, concrete mixing and welding works are happening which comprises of 230
apartments&12floor levels and expected to complete by March-2014.
Warehouse where indoor activities such as safe stacking and storing of construction materials such
as cement ( separate storage area) in the warehouse and welding rods, bricks, woods .
Workers in administrative building are carrying out registration activities of apartments & other
administrative indoor activities such as printing, copying and emails.
Management and administrators of about 20 employees and 400 construction workers were present
while this inspection was conducted.
The aim and reason for this inspection report to highlight the areas of concern about existing health
and safety hazard and to reduce the accidental statistics of previous year, also to measure the
standard of health and safety management system maintained and to check whether it meets the
legal standards.

Executive Summary
In 2013, there have been 12 accidents recorded on this construction site, out of which 7 minor from
cuts and bruises and 5major injury of bone fracture, head injury due to worker fell from height .This
inspection observed some major areas of health and safety concern on both outdoor and indoor
activities carrying out by workers which can put them under risk but not limited to death, serious injury
and property damage.
and nor harness which might lead to fall from height cause serious injury to death and cherry
picker with electric foam painter has been recommended.
Scaffold not erected on the flat surface, no guard rails braces are not well fitted and some
missing, toe boards have huge gaps can lead to scaffold collapse , people and object fall from
height and purchasing new scaffold is highly recommended.
Forklifts are not stopping at the blind corners and can lead to collision with other vehicle &
workers and topple forklift if the load is heavy may cause from death to serious injury and
property damage , using banks men and side mirror at the blind spots are highly
recommended.
Rods have been welded close to the LPG storage area which can lead to explosion and fire
and cause from several personnel death to serious injury and property damage, a separate
covered welding place is highly recommended to prevent from this risk.
High power electric supply near excavation area needs to be covered by lock out-tag out
isolation system.
Inspection also observed good welfare facilities to workers from clean toilets with liquid hand soap,
drinking water at each floor levels, first aid provisions and lockers, however requesting your earliest
attention on the hazards which outlined above to reduce the risk to acceptable level which
subsequently enable to decrease the accident records for this year.

1.Cave- In/Trenching :
Workers are in a ditch of about 8 feet in depth doing drainage pipeline work and found that there is no
protection from cave- in and slip and fall into the ditch as well as there is no protection and signage
stating authorised personnel only or prohibited area which breaches the ILO legislation of Convention
C167-Safety and Health in construction convention, 1988(No.167).
Recommendation:
Hydraulic Shoring of trench would prevent workers to fall from height by slip or soil to cave in and
would cost approximately $200 and it is easier to fix by one person and can be used for new
upcoming projects as well.
Recommendation:
th
Use cherry picker which is available with us for the painter to access at 5 floor level for painting and
purchase of one electric paint sprayer with face piece respirator would prevent the chemical exposure
and fall from height and also avoid much manual handling. Sprayer and respirator would cost around
$120.
3.Scaffold collapse, Falling of people and objects:
Scaffold being used by the workers at construction site level of 45 feet high is not mounted on the even
surface , out riggers were broken and not being replaced, toe board have huge gaps and some braces
been missing and others are not fitted properly which may lead to collapse of scaffold, falling of people
and object from height can lead to fatal , serious injury from head injury to muscle stress and pain
breaching the international legislation of Convention C167-Safety and Health in construction
convention ,1988(No.167) and Health and safety at work 1974(HASWA).
Recommendation:
Purchase of new scaffold which would save many people lives and prevents falling of objects and
collapsing of scaffold which would cost around $350.
Forklift trucks at the warehouse in the construction area are observed that rounding a blind corner into
a loading area without stopping can lead to collision with workers, collision with stationary objects
and/or vehicles which can cause from death to serious personal injury by falling objects on victims
and also lead to property damage by topple of forklift which breachesILO C155 Occupational Health
and safety convention 1981 and Health and safety at work 1974(HASWA).
Recommendation:
Provision of side mirror on the blind corners where driver can foresee the movement of people and
vehicles which ultimately prevent collision and it would cost $40 and also provision of banksmen for the
blind spots and corners.
Welders are welding the rods which is closer to the LPG gas storage area and sparks while welding
can contact with the LPG gas lead to massive fire/explosion cause property damage and mass
casualties in the workplace which breaches the international legislation of Convention C167-Safety
and Health in construction convention, 1988(No.167) and Fire protection and prevention Act 1997.
Recommendation:
Provide a separate covered welding area for the whole construction site where all welding works can
take place may cost $550 which eventually prevents mass casualties and property damage.
6. Electrical Issue:
Main electric power supply for the entire construction site located near the excavation area is
unprotected and no signage of danger being placed can lead to electrocution, burns, death and
secondary effect like fall from height due to throw off can cause serious injury of bone fractures and
head injury which breaches theILO legislation of C155 Occupational Health and safety convention 1981
and Electricity at work regulations 1989(EAWR).
Recommendation:
Barricade the high danger electricity power supply area by isolating( lock out –tag out system) and
would cost $200 can prevent electrocution, burns, even death and secondary deaths such as fall from
height by being victim throw off due to electrocution and fall into excavated area cause head injury or
serious personal injury.

Conclusion:
Firstly, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Shoba management &each and every worker at
site for their outstanding cooperation while conducting inspection without which I could have not done
this observation about health and safety practices at construction site.
Few major findings needs immediate attention towards the safety of workers from the management
such as “ Cave-in, Fall from height( People and objects), Electricity & Fire hazard, collision with
vehicle and pedestrians at warehouse by forklifts which can be controlled in near future by
incorporating suitable recommendations .Other safety concerns such as manual handling, vibration,
noise, stress, biological effect, chemical exposure, heat stress, poor lighting and ventilation can also
be controlled with suitable preventive control measures which also recommended on the observation
sheet.
The workforces were seemed to be very happy when I inquired about their well-being within the
facility and they echoed there is no company can compete the welfare facilities such as locker, first
aid provisions, drinking water, healthy menu at cafeteria and cleaner toilet facilities and also told what
else one would expect? Which brings enthusiastic myself when I hear them which clearly
demonstrates the brigade management commitment towards health and safety of their workers.
Lastly, I would request to please take necessary actions on the suitable recommendation outlined for
existing major hazards and I look forward for your support to further enhance our business reputation
by protecting our workers &property and meeting the obligation of national and international
legislations and for our next ISO certification due in 2 months for renewal without any hindrance.
