EFFECTS OF NOISE

Short term effects

• Damage to ear drum
• Damage to ear ossicles

Temporary Threshold Shift (TTS)

• Hearing loss suffered as a result of noise
exposure, all or part of which recovers
after it is removed from exposure to
noise
Permanent Threshold Shift (PTS)
• May lead to deafness
• Resembles TTS
• Recovery not complete

MANUAL HANDLING
Problems at workplace:

• Manual handling / force

• Excessive force requirements
• Weight of loads lifted, pushed or pulled (material handlng)
• Frequency
• High rates of repetition Excessive Force Vibration
• Duration
• Posture
• Awkward work posture
• Position of a load in relationship to the spinal axis
• Vibration
• E.g Use of grinder, jack hammer
• Lack of sufficient rest (recovery period)

MANUAL HANDLING PRACTICE

Plan your lift before lifting, split load

to manageable weight, get
assisstant or use handling aids
(trolleys), do not apply excessive
force.

SAFE SYSTEM OF WORK

PERMIT TO WORK (PTW) TRANSPORT SAFETY
Main PTW, supplementary Observe plant traffic rules and
certificates and other supporting regulations by making sure valid
documents eg JHA, Lifting Plan and driving license, vehicle documents
Spading List and entry pass. No overloading and
no passenger in the goods
compartment.

LOCK OUT TAG OUT (LOTO) HOUSEKEEPING & SIGNAGES

Ensure all sources of energy are Keeping work areas neat and orderly
isolated before work start. and provide safety signage as a
mean of visual communication for all
the workers and other people.

JOB HAZARD ANALYSIS (JHA) TOOL BOX TALK

Identify hazards at each task, Briefing session before work
develop solution and Standard commence. Supervisor communicate
