 What is It

OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Policy – An Information and

communication technology (ICT) student should know how to behave when working
in the computer laboratory, as well as implement a safe way of accomplishing every
task. Safety practices should be learned early and always adheres in working with
any electrical and electronic device, including personal computers and its
peripherals. This is for your protection as well as to the people working with you, and
for the devices that you are using. The basis for this process begins with
Occupational Health and Safety Policies.

Occupational safety and health (OSH) is a planned system of working to

prevent illness and injury where you work by recognizing and identifying hazards
and risks. Health and safety procedure is the responsibility of all persons in the
computer and technology industries. You must identify the hazards where you are
working and decide how dangerous they are. Eliminate the hazard or modify the risk
that it presents.

Occupational Health and Safety Standards

Each student has a responsibility to their colleagues and their organization to

report and act upon any potential workplace hazard. Students need to be aware of
the type of hazards that are possibly present in their work environment.

Procedure
1. Identify the hazard
2. Clear the area close to the hazard
3. Partition the hazard off or clearly identify the area to protect other people from
harm
4. If the hazard is easily and safely cleared, then do so

If not…

5. Report the hazard to the appropriate person (such as teacher in charge, principal
etc.) to obtain assistance
6. Following clearing of the hazard fill out the correct documentation to assist in
identifying improved practice to reduce further incidence of hazards.
All hazards must be reported using Accidental Report form. This enables us to
track the kinds of hazards we have in our workplace, and take action where
necessary to make it safer for all student and clients.

Accident reports
Forms are used to give specific details with regards to the accidents happened
in the laboratory during experiments.
Accident reports contain the following details:
✓ Name of the person injured
✓ Date and time of the accident
✓ Type of injury
✓ First aid given
✓ Action taken to prevent further accidents

Accident report sample form

Form No: Accident Report Date:

Form Room No.:
Name: Grade Level/Sec.:
Type of Injury Cause of Injury Remedy

Hazardous Substances

If the workplace hazard appears to be dangerous to staff and clients and

professional assistance is required:
A. Call the supervisor or manager and advise them of the problem and the urgency
of the matter.
B. Depending on the risk it may be called as an evacuation.
C. Follow the evacuation procedure.
D. The supervisor or manager will call in the fire brigade or specialized personnel
who will deal with the spill.

Fire Exits

All fire exits should be kept clear of from obstacles. All students have a
responsibility to make sure that chairs, empty boxes or any other type of obstacle
are not placed in or near fire exit doorways.
All corridors also need to have equipment stored on one side only to ensure that in
the event of an emergency there is a clear exit.
Fire Safety Procedure

Each work area has a designated fire warden, who in the event of a fire
will take charge. They are recognized by the wearing of a red hard hat.

If you find the fire:

✓ Assess the danger prior to doing anything.
✓ If it is safe to move assist anyone in the vicinity of the fire away from danger.
✓ If it is possible, close the door to the fire area.
✓ Call for assistance. Verbally call FIRE, FIRE, in a loud and clear voice.
✓ Break the glass section of the fire alert call point.
✓ Call to the switch; ensure you know where the fire is, any other details that
may be of assistance to the fire brigade. Details could be size of the fire, cause
or type of fire, any people hurt or trapped, has anyone tried to put it out.
✓ If safe to do so, attack the fire with the correct extinguisher or fire hose.

If the designated fire officer is not present, someone quickly needs to take
responsibility and:
1. Locate the source of the fire.
2. Locate any people.
3. Remove all people from the building.
4. Once outside do a head count?
5. Notify the authorities.

Personal Safety While Working with PC’s

Computer equipment can be dangerous, and you or others can be injured or

even killed if you don’t follow proper safety guidelines when working along with PC’s.
The following are some precautionary measures to take before working with any
computer equipment:
✓ Wear shoes with non-conductive rubber soles to help reduce the chance of
being shocked or seriously injured in an electrical accident.
✓ Do not work on components that are plugged into their power source.
✓ Do not remove expansion cards from a computer when it is turned on.
✓ Remove jewelries when working inside any computer related equipment.
✓ Be sure not to mix electronic components and water.

computer hardware and after you have drawn, write a brief or simple description of
each.

1. Computer Keyboard

2. Mouse

3. Printer

3. Computer Monitor
5. System Unit
 What is It

The physical, touchable, electronic and mechanical parts of a computer are

called the hardware which is composed of different devices attached to the computer.
The following list represents a basic set of devices found in most Personal
Computers.

1. System Unit- The main part of a

microcomputer, sometimes called the chassis.
It includes the following parts: Motherboard,
Microprocessor, Memory Chips, Buses, Ports,
Expansion Slots and Cards.

2. Motherboard / Mainboard / System Board-

The main circuit board of a computer. It contains
all the circuits and components that run the
computer.

3. CPU (Central Processing Unit) - The processor

is the main “brain” or “heart” of a computer system.
It performs all of the instructions and calculations
that are needed and manages the flow of
information through a computer.

4. Primary storage- (internal storage, main memory

or memory) is the computer's working storage
space that holds data, instructions for processing
and processed data (information) waiting to be
sent to secondary storage. Physically, primary
storage is a collection of RAM chips.

Two (2) Types of Memory

a. ROM – (Read Only Memory) ROM is non-volatile,

meaning it holds data even when the power is
ON or OFF.
b. RAM – (Random Access Memory) RAM is volatile, meaning it holds data only
when the power is on. When the power is off, RAM's contents are lost.
5. Expansion Bus - A bus is a data pathway
between several hardware components inside
or outside a computer. It does not only connect
the parts of the CPU to each other, but also links
the CPU with other important

6. Adapters- Printed-circuit boards (also called

interface cards) that enable the computer to use a
peripheral device for which it does not have the
necessary connections or circuit boards. They are
often used to permit upgrading to a new different
hardware.

7. Power Supply Unit (PSU) - Installed in the

back corner of the PC case, next to the
motherboard. It converts 120vac (standard house
power) into DC voltages that are used by other
components in the PC.

8. Hard Disk Drive (HDD) - Also known as

hard drive, is a magnetic storage device that is
installed inside the computer. The hard drive is
used as permanent storage for data. In a Windows
computer, the hard drive is usually configured as
the C: drive and contains the operating system and
applications.

9. Optical Drive- An optical drive is a storage

device that uses lasers to read data on the optical
media. There are three types of optical drives:
Compact Disc (CD), Digital Versatile Disc (DVD)
and Blu-ray Disc (BD)

10. Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) - Designed to

optically access data stored on a DVD. A laser

moves back and forth near the disk surface and
accesses data at a very fast rate.
INPUT AND OUTPUT DEVICES

What are the input and output devices of a computer?

The devices attached to a personal computer can be classified into two- the
input and output devices. Input Device is composed of a device that accepts data
and instructions from the user or from another computer system. While, output
device is any piece of computer hardware that displays results after the computer
has processed the input data that has been entered.

Two (2) Types of Input Devices

1. Keyboard Entry – Data is inputted to the

computer through a keyboard.

Keyboard - The first input device developed for

the PC. Data is transferred to the PC over a short
cable with a circular 6-pin Mini-din connector that
plugs into the back of the motherboard.

2. Direct Entry – A form of input that does not require data to be keyed by
someone sitting at a keyboard. Direct-entry devices create machine-readable data
on paper, or magnetic media, or feed it directly into the computer’s CPU.

Three Categories of Direct Entry Devices

1. Pointing Devices - An input device used to move the pointer (cursor) on screen.

Mouse - The most common 'pointing device' used

in PCs. Every mouse has two buttons and most
have one or two scroll wheels.

Touch screen- A display screen that is sensitive

to the touch of a finger or stylus. Used in myriad
applications, including ATM machines, retail
point-of-sale terminals, car navigation and
industrial controls. The touch screen became
wildly popular for smart phones and tablets.

Light Pen - A light-sensitive stylus wired to

a video terminal used to draw pictures or
select menu options. The user brings the
pen to the desired point on screen and presses
the pen button to make contact.
Digitizer Tablet - A graphics drawing tablet
used for sketching new images or tracing old
ones. Also called a "graphics tablet," the user
contacts the surface of the device with a wired
or wireless pen or puck. Often mistakenly called
a mouse, the puck is officially the "tablet cursor."

2. Scanning Devices- A device that can read

text or illustrations printed on paper and translates
the information into a form the computer can use.

3. Voice- Input Devices - Audio input devices also

known as speech or voice recognition systems that
allow a user to send audio signals to a computer for
processing, recording, or carrying out commands.
Audio input devices such as microphones allow users
to speak to the computer in order to record a voice
message or navigate software.

Output Devices
1. Computer Display Monitor- It displays information in visual form, using text
and graphics. The portion of the monitor that displays the information is called the
screen or video display terminal.

Types of Monitor

a. CRT Monitors - Cathode Ray Tubes (CRT)

were the only type of displays for use with
desktop PCs. They are relatively big
(14" to 16" deep) and heavy (over 15 lbs).

b. LCD Monitors – Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

technology has been used in laptops for some
time. It has recently been made commercially
available as monitors for desktop PCs.
c. LED Monitors (Light Emitting Diode) - A display
and lighting technology used in almost every
electrical and electronic product on the market,
from a tiny on/off light to digital readouts, flashlights,
traffic lights and perimeter lighting.

2. LCD Projectors- utilize two sheets of

polarizing material with a liquid crystal solution
between them. An electric current passed through
the liquid causes the crystals to align so that light
cannot pass through them. Each crystal, therefore,
is like a shutter, either allowing light to pass through
or blocking the light.

3. Smart Board - A type of display screen that

has a touch sensitive transparent panel covering
the screen, which is similar to a touch screen.

4. Printer - A device that prints text or illustrations

on paper.

Types of printer

a) Ink-Jet or Bubble-Jet Printer - spays ink at

a sheet of paper. Ink-jet printers produce high-quality
text and graphics.

b) Laser Printer - Uses the same technology as

copy machines. Laser printers produce very high
quality text and graphics.

c) LCD and LED Printer- Similar to a laser

printer, but uses liquid crystals or light-emitting
diodes rather than a laser to produce an image on
the drum.
d) Line Printer - Contains a chain of characters
or pins that print an entire line at one time. Line
printers are very fast, but produce low-quality print.

e) Thermal Printer- An inexpensive printer

that works by pushing heated pins against
heat-sensitive paper. Thermal printers are
widely used in calculators and fax machines.

5. Speakers - Used to play sound. They

may be built into the system unit or
connected with cables. Speakers
allow you to listen to music and hear
sound effects from your computer.
