HAZARD DESCRIPTION:
Working near at the edge of the staircase could result to
falling from the edge of the work area. Walking also over
steel could result to cuts, slip on steel, fall; trip, twist ankle
or knee.

HAZARD CONTROLS:
1. Place handrail, midrail, or guardrail. Adequate perimeter edge
protection is required.
2. Make sure that only trained workers are climbing and working
in high spots.
3. Be mindful and watch your feet while walking.
4. Penetrations must have secured, covered, and marked.

HAZARD DESCRIPTION:
Cutting steel with Oxy Acetylene torch could result in fire
and/or burns to the body e.g. arms and legs, and damage to
eyes.

HAZARD CONTROLS:
1. Remove nearby combustible materials (such as flammable
liquids, wood, paper, textiles, packaging or plastics);
2. Evaluate the particulars of the work, such as duration and
frequency of the cutting operation.
3. Provide training and use only qualified employees to do cutting
operations.
4. Provide personal protective equipment to the workers

HAZARD DESCRIPTION:
Sharp edges on tie wire that are used to secure rebars could
result in cuts or puncture wounds. Tying or capping rebar can lead
to tendon inflammation (tendonitis) in the hand, wrist, or shoulder,
or carpal tunnel syndrome.

HAZARD CONTROLS:
1. Avoid cutting tie wires close to the pinch point head, instead
twist it off to eliminate sharp edges.
2. Use a rebar-tying tool which is a battery-powered equipment
that fastens rebar together with tie wires. It reduces stooped
postures by allowing the user to remain in an upright position
while stressful hand and wrist activity is minimized by the tool
automatically fastening the tie wires.
3. Wear correct PPE. Use sturdy boots and protective gloves to
avoid cuts or puncture wounds.
