Lesson 5. Practice Occupational Safety and Health (OHS)
Occupational Safety and Health is a cross-disciplinary area concerned with protecting the
safety, health and welfare of people engaged in work or employment. As a secondary effect, it may
also protect co-workers, family members, employers, customers, suppliers nearby communities, and
other members of the public who are affected by the workplace environment.

Occupational Health should aim to:


1. Promote and maintain the highest degree of physical, mental and social well- being of workers in all
occupations;
2. Place and maintain the worker in an environment suitable to his physiological and psychological
capabilities;
3.Protect workers from risk resulting from factors averse to health; and
4. Prevent workers from resignation due to health caused by poor working conditions.

The reasons for establishing good occupational safety and health standards:
1. To avoid risk injury at work.
2. To reduce poor occupation and health cost to the state.
3. To ensure the safety of products and processes.

Occupational Health and Safety Policy and Procedures


1. Identify the hazard
2. Clear the area close to the hazard
3. Identify the hazard area to protect other people from harm
4. Report the hazard to the appropriate person (such as teacher in charge, principal etc.) to obtain
assistance

Hazards in the Workplace


There are many things that affect the health of a person, such as his environment, his lifestyle,
etc. Work is an important determinant of health. It can influence health in a positive or in a negative
way. A place that is safe, healthy and work-conducive entails more productivity. In fact, with a healthy
workplace you will be doing more work with less effort.

Hazard is a term used to describe something that has the potential to cause harm. Risk on
the other hand, is a measure of the possibility of a specific harmful effect in given circumstances. It is
very important to know the difference between a hazard and a risk.

Types of workplace hazards include:


Safety hazards refers to the inadequate and insufficient machine guards, unsafe workplace
conditions, unsafe work practices.
Biological hazards are caused by organisms such as viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites.
Chemical hazards refer to the solid, liquid, vapor or gaseous chemicals, dust, fume or mist.
Ergonomic hazards refer to anatomical, physiological, and psychological demands on the
worker, such as repetitive and forceful movements, vibration, extreme temperatures, and
awkward postures arising from improper work methods and improperly designed workstations,
tools, and equipment.
Physical hazards cause of Noise, vibration, energy, weather, electricity, radiation and
pressure.
Psychological hazards are those that are basically causing stress to a worker. This kind of
hazard troubles an individual very much to an extent that his general well-being is affected.

HAZARDS AND RISK INDICATORS


The Department of Labor and Employment ( DOLE) and the Occupational Health and Safety
Standards (OHSS) issued D.O. 13, ss 1998, known as the Guidelines Governing Occupational Safety
and Health in the Industry. It requires employers and establishments to use a safety sign where there
is a significant risk to health and safety that has not been avoided or controlled by the methods
required under other relevant law, provided the use of a sign can help reduce the risk.

Accident prevention signs and symbols


General refers to signs and symbols required shall be visible at all times when work is being
performed, and shall be removed or covered promptly when the hazard no longer exists.
Danger Signs shall be used only where an immediate hazard exists. It should be read as the
predominating color for the upper panel; outline on the borders; and a white lower panel for
additional sign wording.
Caution Signs shall be used only to warn against or caution against practices and shall have
yellow as the predominating color; black upper p
on the black panel; and the lower yellow panel for the additional sign wording.
Exit Sign shall be lettered in legible red letters, not less than 6 inches high, on a white field and
the principal stroke of the letters shall be at least three fourths in width.
Safety Instructions Signs shall be with green upper panel with while letters to convey the
principal message. Any additional wording on the sign shall be black letters on the white
background.
Directional Signs shall be white with a black panel and white directional symbol. Any wording
on the sign shall be black letters on the white background.

Contingency Measures and OHS Procedures


A contingency plan is a written emergency procedures plan which describes what actions
must be taken to minimize hazards from fires, explosions or unplanned releases of hazardous waste

3|Page
or hazardous waste constituents to air, soil and water.

Contingency Plan Include the following:


A description of the emergency procedures to be followed by facility personnel in response to
fires, explosions, or any unplanned sudden or non-sudden release of hazardous waste from air,
soil or water;
An up-to-date list of names, addresses and phone numbers (office and home) of all persons
qualified to act as emergency coordinator. When more than one person is listed, one must be
designated as primary emergency coordinator and the others must be listed in the order in which
they will assume responsibility as alternates;
An up-to-date list of all emergency equipment at the facility, including the location and physical
description of each item, along with a brief outline of its capabilities. Examples of emergency
equipment include, but are not limited to, fire extinguishing systems, communications and alarm
systems, personnel protective equipment, spill containment or clean-up equipment, and
decontamination equipment; and
An evacuation plan for facility personnel.

Key Points

Occupational Safety and Health is a cross-disciplinary area concerned with protecting the
safety, health and welfare of people. It can be controlled by a variety of methods. The goal of controlling
hazards is to prevent workers from being exposed to occupational hazards. The most effective control
measure is to control hazards at the source by eliminating the hazard or by substituting a hazardous
chemical, machine, work process, etc., with a less dangerous one. It is important to recognize hazards
and health and safety problems in the workplace.
Always remember in controlling hazards you need to identify hazards, evaluate hazards
and provide solutions to control or eliminate the hazard.

Hazards in the Workplace

There are many things that affect the health of a person, such as his environment, his lifestyle,
etc. Work is an important determinant of health. It can influence health in a positive or in a negative
way.
A place that is safe, healthy and work-conducive entails more productivity. In fact, with a healthy
workplace you will be doing more work with less effort.
Workplace refers to a specific area where work/activity is being done.
Hazard is a term used to describe something that has the potential to cause harm.
Risk on the other hand, is a measure of the possibility of a specific harmful effect in given
circumstances. It is very important to know the difference between a hazard and a risk.

Methods in Controlling Hazards and Risks in the Workplace

1. All materials and equipment should be maintained in a clean and safe place.
2. Keep the place free from rodents, cockroaches and insects.
3. Provide adequate facilities for hand washing, cleaning and disposing of waste.
4. Establish proper procedures for infection control.
5. Keep the floor area free from waste, water, and grease.
6. Keep cabinets dry, clean and close tightly.

Standard Procedures in Setting-Up Drawing Tools, Materials and Equipment

In preparation for a required task in Mechanical Drafting, student should plan, prepare, and
select tools and materials for a particular drawing activity. This is to ensure the correct setting of
standard procedure and accuracy of drawings.
The drawing tools, materials and equipment are very expensive items; however, these are
important in all drafting tasks. Considering its cost and value in drafting activity, it is also important to
take care and maintain its usability.
With this, the following considerations are strictly emphasized as Standard Operating Procedure
during and after the utilization of the drafting tools, materials and equipment:
7|Page
a. Before the start of drafting activity:
1. Select the tools, materials and equipment needed in the assigned task.
2. Properly set up the required tools and materials in a place convenient for you to move and
execute your work.
3. Clean the table and tools, see to it that these are free from dust and other elements that would
cause damage to your work.
4. Wash your hands with clean water.
b. Activity proper:
1. Perform the activity by following the standard operating procedure per job requirement.
2. Properly manipulate all the tools and equipment that are used in the activity.
3. In case errors or mistakes along the way (for instance misprinting of lines, letters, and other
forms of mistakes) use appropriate eraser.
c. After the activity:
1. Submit your output to your teacher for checking
2. Check all the tools and materials to ensure that nothing is lost.
3. Return the tools and materials to the tool keeper.

borrowed tools and materials.


5. Clean your work station before leaving.

Keep Your Workplace Clean and Organized

It is important to consider safety measures whether in the industrial arts laboratory shop,
drafting room or in the home workshop. Good housekeeping is one of the sure ways to keep a safe
workplace. It is not the result of cleaning up once a week or even once a day. It is the result of keeping
the workplace cleaned-up all the time. It is an essential factor in a good safety program, promoting
safety, health, production, and morale.
Besides preventing accidents and injuries, good housekeeping saves space, time, and
materials. When a workplace is clean, orderly, and free of obstruction, work can get done safely and
properly. Workers feel better, think better, do better work, and increase the quantity and quality of their
work.
Japanese companies innovated a productivity philosophy called "5S," which stands for five
Japanese words that refer to a methodology not only for cleaning, but for business. The 5S
methodology is all about eliminating waste, speeding up daily tasks, and improving the quality of the
workplace. You can use the 5S methodology to help you organize your tasks at the end of every working
day.

Seiri (Sorting) - Take out unnecessary items and dispose.


Keep only the items you need at work, and
discard or store everything else.
Biodegradable Degradable

Seiton - "Set in order" means that there's a place for everything


and everything should be in its place. Arrange necessary
items in good order for use.

Seiso (Sweeping) - At the end of each working day, take time to clean up your office space. Clean up
any mess you make.

Seiketsu (Standardizing) - Maintain high standard of housekeeping

Shitsuke (Sustaining) - Do things spontaneously without being told or ordered. A systematic and
productive workplace is not a one-day-affair just because somebody is observing you.

SAQ-1: Why do you need to follow safety procedures while working?

SAQ-2: What do you think are the methods to follow in controlling hazard and risk in
your workplace?

(Answer on the Answer Sheet provided for Activity and Assessment.)

Directions: List down some of the pointers and considerations done before, during and after the
activity in preparation for a required task in Drafting.

REMEMBER
Key Points

Safety Standards are standards designed to ensure the safety of products, activities or
processes and others.
One of the principal means of promoting efficiency in drafting is orderliness and neatness.
Efficiency in turn will produce accuracy in drawing. The drawing area should be kept clear of
equipment not in direct use.
There are important practices that must be observed in the work setting.
The following are:

1. Observe safety precautions:


a. Never smoke inside the work station.

9|Page
b. Never use any tools and equipment without having it clean first.
c. Avoid talking with your co-students during working period.
d. Always turn off the lights, air condition, ceiling fan, computer units, and other
equipment before leaving the work station.
e. Maintain cleanliness in the work station.
f. Use tools and equipment properly.
2. Observe punctuality of attendance.
3. Avoid quarreling with your co-students.
4. Observe and practice the value of respect.
5. Return the borrowed tools and equipment on time.
6. Observe and practice proper disposal of waste.
The 5S system may sound simple, but it demands dedication and commitment. With 5S, you
can be sure to complete your cleaning tasks in your workshop in no time.
