Learning Episode 1
I. Motivation:
A. Presentation: Today, we are going to provide nursery support according to
 OHS requirements and workplace information.
B. Imptortance The importance of this lesson is for you to ensure that all
operations are carried out safely, reducing the risk of accidents
and injuries, while also enhancing productivity and performance.
They are also legally mandated, and adherence to them helps
avoid penalties.
C. Formative At the end of the lesson, each one of you can provide nursery
Assessment: support according to OHS requirements and workplace
information by 5 items quiz.
II. Prove and Respond:
A. Review/Drill Anyone from the class can recall what we discussed yesterday
or a past lesson.
B. Pre-requisite Skill: The teacher says: This time, I will give you an example on how
to provide nursery support according to OHS requirements and
workplace information.

Safety Precautions in Handling Farm Facilities

Horticultural farm operations deal with a lot of activities to be

done in the different workplaces. While performing these
activities we expose ourselves to a lot of risks. Workplace
hazard is a major cause of accident, injury, or harm to a worker
who performs such task. These hazards should be the major
concern of all who are involved in a certain job or work.

Hazard is the potential for harm, or adverse effect on an

employee's health. Anything which may cause injury or ill health
to anyone at or near a workplace is a hazard.
Risk is the likelihood that a hazard will cause injury or ill health
to anyone at or near a workplace. The level of risk increases
with the severity of the hazard and the duration and frequency of
exposure.
Exposure occurs when a person comes in contact with a
hazard.

Risk management is a four step process

1. Identify the hazard

The first step in reducing the cause of an accident is hazard
identification. Hazard identification is identifying all situations or
events that could cause injury or illness. Eliminating or
minimizing workplace hazards needs a systematic approach.
2. Assess the risk associated with the hazard
This step involves gathering information and making decisions. It
is important to consider the causes and impact of hazards in a
work place. To avoid risking the workers health, introduce some
precautionary measures.
3. Control the risk
The third step in effective risk management is to establish and
maintain systems which give opportunity for regular evaluation
and review procedures. Evaluation means examining control
measures to ensure that risks are eliminated or reduced and
have not caused new hazards.
4. Review the process.
The review system applies to the overall risk management
process and checks if it is working effectively.
Classes of Hazard
1. Physical includes floors, stairs, work platforms, steps,
ladders, fire, falling objects, slippery surfaces, manual handling
(lifting, pushing, pulling), excessively loud and prolonged noise,
vibration, heat and cold, radiation, poor lighting, ventilation, and
air quality).
2. Mechanical and/or electrical includes electricity, machinery,
equipment, pressure vessels, dangerous goods, fork lifts,
cranes, hoists.
3. Chemical includes chemical substances such as acids or
poisons and those that could lead to fire or explosion, like
pesticides, herbicides, cleaning agents, dusts and fumes from
various processes such as welding
4. Biological includes bacteria, viruses, mold, mildew, insects,
vermin, animals
5. Psychosocial environment includes workplace stressors
arising from a variety of sources.

The teacher says: By this time, we will do together. (The teacher will call
students to participate and answer the questions being asked)

Hazard: Chemical Exposure

Possible Harmful Effects:
 Skin irritation
 Respiratory problems
 Eye damage

Possible Supervisor Action to Prevent Injury/Illness:

Possible answer:
 Provide appropriate personal protective equipment
(PPE) such as gloves, goggles, and masks.
 Ensure adequate ventilation in the workspace.
 Implement proper storage and handling procedures
for chemicals.

Preventative Action Students Can Take:

Possible answer:
 Always wear provided PPE when working with
chemicals.
 Read and follow safety instructions and protocols

Learning Episode 3:
A. Guided Practice: Directions: Three groups will be formed from the class. You are
going to role-play, based on the list of possible hazards in
horticultural farm operations, at least one of them. The
preparation of the task takes only 5 minutes.

(The teacher will roam around to check the students' work. The
teacher will then acknowledge the students who got the correct
answer.)
B. Independent Direction: In a clean sheet of paper, provide an answer of the
Practice: blank of a table based on the list of possible hazards in
horticultural farm operations.
