I. INTRODUCTORY CONCEPT:

Emergencies such as accidents, fires and explosions, earthquakes, floods, and other
natural calamities are life threatening. Preparations and implementations are necessary to
save property and put people into safety. It is essential that every person in such situation
discerns exactly what to do. This necessitates repeated exercises or drills to ensure that no
one forgets the process. That’s why companies and institutions needs to conduct risk
assessments. Such assessments survey all possible hazards, examine them carefully, and
evaluate them according to their chances of causing injury and harm and according to the
possible seriousness of the impact.

II. LEARNING COMPETENCIES

Fire Safety

TLE Household Services_Grade7/8_LAS5

 Most fire starts at the household because of the negligence or accidents made by any
member of the family. Mostly it causes of loose valves of liquefied petroleum gas tanks (LPG)
or unattended stove while cooking. But we could prevent fire by understanding the fire safety
codes and follow safety tips.

Republic Act No. 9514

Also known as the “Fire Code of the Philippines of 2008”
This Implementing Rules and Regulation shall be interpreted in the light of the
Declaration of Policy found in Section 2 of the Code:
“It is the policy of the State to ensure public safety, promote economic development
through the prevention and suppression of all kinds of destructive fires, and promote the
professionalization of the fire service as a profession. Towards this end, the State shall enforce
all laws, rules, and regulations to ensure adherence, and promote accountability in the fire
protection and prevention service.”

Fire Safety Objectives:

1. Prevent the occurrence of fire and explosion.
2. Reduce the risk to life caused by fire.
3. Reduce the risk of damage caused by fire.

4. Contain, control, and suppress fire and explosion in the workplace.

5. Provide adequate and readily accessible means of escape.

This refers to precautions that are taken to prevent or reduce the possibility of a fire
that may result to death, injury or property damage, alert those in a structure to the presence
of an uncontrolled fire in the event one occurs, better enable those threatened by a fire to
survive, or to reduce the damage caused by a fire. Fire safety measures include those that
are planned during the construction of a building or implemented in structures that are already
standing, and those that are imparted to occupants of the building.

1. These are other several causes of fire, they are as follows:

o Overheated appliances, like failure to switch off water heater and
unplug flat iron after use
o Worn-out electrical connections
o Left unattended lighted candles
o Overheated lights (like Christmas lights, lanterns, and bulbs)
o Sudden surge of electricity
o Unattended stoves and ovens
o Faulty electrical equipment
o Faulty electrical wiring
o Dried leaves
o Children playing with fire
o Flammable liquids
o Careless smoking

Fire drills are conducted at the frequencies specified by the Fire Code. It is a
method of practicing how places like building would be evacuated in the event of a fire
or other emergencies. Fire drill procedures may vary depending on the building type

TLE Household Services_Grade7/8_LAS5

 like hospitals, schools, apartments or condos and homes, where occupants may simply
be relocated within the building. It involves all the following activities and
considerations:

 The fire alarm system is activated as part of the drill

 Supervisory staff operates emergency systems and equipment as they would in the event
of an actual fire
 All supervisory staff that have specific duties identified in the fire safety plan participate
 The fire drill runs long enough to adequately assess the expected responses of supervisory
staff and the emergency procedures relative to the scenario expectations
 The fire drill outcomes are documented and where concerns are identified, corrective
measures are implemented
 The desirable degree of occupant’ participation is taking into account

Earthquake

It is the shaking and vibration at the surface of the earth resulting from underground
movement along a fault plane or from volcanic activity.

The following activities are to be undertaken:

During the Earthquake

Indoors

Stay inside
Drop, cover and hold on. Move only a few
steps to a nearby safe place. Take
cover under and hold onto a piece of heavy
furniture or stand against an inside
wall. Stay indoors until the shaking stops.
Stay away from windows and doors.
If you are in bed, hold on, stay and protect
your head with a pillow.

Outdoors
Find a clear spot away from buildings, trees, and
power lines.
Drop to the ground until the shaking stops.

TLE Household Services_Grade7/8_LAS5

After the Earthquake

Personal Safety
Expect aftershocks. Each time you feel one, drop, cover and hold on.
Check yourself for injuries. Protect yourself by wearing long pants, a longsleeved
shirt, sturdy shoes and work gloves.
Listen to a battery-operated radio or television for the latest emergency
information.
Check others for injuries. Give first aid where appropriate. Do not move
seriously injured persons unless they are in immediate danger of further injury.
Remember to help your neighbors who may require special assistance--infants,
the elderly, and people with disabilities

Home

Inspect your home for damage. Get everyone out if your home is unsafe.
Fires: Look for and extinguish small fires.
Gas: Check for gas leaks. If you smell gas or hear blowing or hissing noise,
open a window and leave building. Turn off the gas at the valve.
Electricity: Look for electrical system damage. Turn off the electricity at the
main fuse box or circuit breaker if you see sparks or broken or frayed wires, or
if smell hot insulation. If you have to step in water to get to the fuse box or
circuit breaker, call an electrician first for advice.
Sewage, Water: Check for sewage and water lines damage.

First Aid

It is the provision of initial care for an illness or injury. It is usually performed by nonexpert,
but trained personnel to a sick or injured person until definitive medical treatment can
be accessed.

TLE Household Services_Grade7/8_LAS5

A good first aider must possess the following characteristics:

Watchful – pay strict attention to the situation.

Resourceful – ability of devising ways and means.
Gentle – having a kind and calm characteristics.
Diplomatic – careful in saying a word not to upset other people.
Sympathetic – a mutual association or feeling to be shown to the victim.
Gladsome – possessing a good spirit, likely to display gloom.

General Directions for First Aid

1. Give immediate action. Action taken needs to be careful not to cause panic. The first –
aider must remain calm all the times.
2. Keep the victim on its position; if possible lay him/her down.
3. Assess the situation. Examine the victim from injuries.
4. Plan action to be taken. It involves seeking expert assistance.

Different Occupational Health and Safety Record

Principles in Making Records.

The overall principles of record-keeping, whether you are writing by hand or making
entries to electronic systems, can be summed up by saying that anything you write or
enter must be honest, accurate and non-offensive and must not breach confidentiality. If
you follow these principles, your contribution to record-keeping will be valuable.

More specifically, you should always try to ensure that you:

handwrite legibly and key-in competently to computer systems sign all your entries
make sure your entries are dated and timed as close to the actual time of the events as
possible
record events accurately and clearly – remember that the patient/client may wish to see the
record at some point, so make sure you write in language that he or she will understand
focus on facts, not speculation
avoid unnecessary abbreviations – as you’ll find, the health care system uses many
abbreviations, but not all workplaces use the same definitions: for instance, ‘DNA’ means
‘deoxyribonucleic acid’ in some places, but ‘Did Not Attend’ (meaning a patient/client who does
not show up for an appointment) in others – avoid abbreviations if you can!
record how the patient/client is contributing to his or her care, and quote anything he or she
has said that you think might be significant
do not change or alter anything someone else has written, or change anything you have
written previously; if you do need to amend something you have written, make sure you draw
a clear line through it and sign and date the changes
never write anything about a patient/client or colleague that is insult

 What Health and Safety Records should be Kept?

Health and Safety logbook

You may have been asked to the past to keep a chronological of health and safety
log book/diary. There are some obvious problems with relying on this type of record
system, since if you need to quickly identify staffs who have received induction training,
or when the last fire drill was held, you will hve to thumb through the diary to the
relevant date

Health and Safety File

A Health and Safety file which should be readily available for inspection. Files can
be electronic, as long as they are easily and quickly retrievable, but ideally, a hard copy
should be printed out for the Health and Safety file. The file should serve as the central
health and safety record for the company.

A current list of names of individuals with key health and safety rules.
A copy of Health and Safety Code/Company Health and Safety Policyand projected date
for review and more.

How long health and safety records should be kept?

Five years is a good rule thumb for most health and safety records. Risk
assessment records should be kept as long as the particular process or activity, to which
the assessments refer, is performed. Examination of past assessments allows changes
and improvements to be identified.

Keeping health records

Health records are not medically confidential documents. They provide feedback
to management on the results of health surveillance , both for the purpose solely deploying
each employee and allowing collective analysis of the effectiveness of immunisation for
staff at risk. Health records also allow for outcome analysis of it’s health from BBV
exposure to be done at a later stage (should this prove necessary.)
