WEEKLY TOPIC

BEHAVIORAL SAFETY: WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR SAFETY?
Safety is everyone's responsibility! As an employee you should:
- Learn to work safely and take all rules seriously
- Recognize hazards and avoid them
- Report all accidents, injuries, and illnesses to your supervisor immediately
- inspect tools before use to avoid injury
- Wear all assigned personal protective equipment
On the other hand, it is management's responsibility to:
- Provide a safe and healthy workplace
- Provide personal protective equipment
- Train employees in safe procedures and in how to identify hazards
Everyone must be aware of potential hazards on the job:
- Poor housekeeping results in slips, trips, and falls
- Electricity can cause shocks, burns, or fire if not handled properly
- Poor material handling may cause back problems or other injuries
- Tools and equipment can cause injuries if guards or protective devices are disengaged
Always use the protections that are provided on the job:
- Guards on machines and tools keep body parts from contacting moving equipment
- Insulation on electrical equipment prevents shocks, burns, and fire
- Lockout/Tagout assures equipment is de-energized before it is repaired
- Personal protective equipment shields your body from hazards you may face on the job
In case of emergency:
- Understand alarms and evacuation routes
- Know how to notify emergency response personnel
- Implement a procedure for leaving the scene safely so emergency personnel can do their job
- Wipe up spills promptly and correctly
Safety benefits everyone. With fewer injuries, a business can be more productive and profitable. By incorporating safety rules, employees avoid injury as well as illness from exposure to hazardous substances.
