Synopsis : OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH FOR ENGINEERING course is designed to impart
understanding of the self-regulatory concepts and provisions under the Occupational Safety & Health Act
(OSHA). This course presents the responsibilities of workers in implementing and complying with the safety
procedures at work. Understanding of notifications of accidents, dangerous occurrence, poisoning and diseases
and liability for offences will be imparted upon students. This course will also provide an understanding of
the key issues in OSH management, incident prevention, Emergency Preparedness and Response (EPR), fire
safety, Hazard Identification, Risk Control and Risk Assessment (HIRARC) and guide the students gradually
into this multi-disciplinary science.
