1.

Safety Harness:

‐ Whenever we climb over 1.8m high, We shall wear safety harness.

‐ When you wear safety harness, all of straps must be tightened.
‐ If you don't tighten strap, when you hang your harness, you can get wound by
this strap.
-Hook safety harness wherever required.

2. Eating at site:

‐ We can eat in designated area/ rest area.

‐ Eating at other place is prohibited.
‐ After eating food at site, the luch boxes shall be removed from site immediately.
‐ Rat at the site is very dangerous. Rat can eat electric cable and it can be bomb.
‐ Bringing food to site individually is prohibited.

3. Life Line:

‐ Life line is one of the most important fall protection.

‐ Especially on the steel structure without life line nobody can work.
‐ Life line shall be made by wire rope whose diameter is over 10mm.
‐ Gap of 2 post for life line shall be under 5m.
‐ U‐clip for life line shall be at least 3EA
‐ Direction of u‐clip shall be correct.
4. Hand Safety :

 Injuries to hands and fingers are the most frequent type of injury.
 A small scratch or cut can become infected easily, which can lead to serious health problems.
 Even the smallest injury must be reported to your supervisor and proper first aid will be given.
 To prevent hand injuries, wear work gloves when handling equipment such as piping, slings, using
sledge hammers, carrying heavy equipment, etc.
 Chemical gloves are available and must be worn when handling chemicals.
 Rubber gloves must be used also during concreting and plastering works.
 Welders’ gloves are available and must be worn when welding or torch cutting.

 “Save your hands from injuries”

5. Four Eyes – Safe Eyes:

 On most of the jobs in our project, we have to wear eye protection of some kind. For each of these jobs,
a certain kind of eye or face protection is needed.
 But just knowing is not enough, you know that ultra‐violet and infrared radiation from welding can
harm your eyes. There are filter lenses in a welder’s goggles and welding mask that protect you from
radiation.
 You know that it takes one particle from a grinding wheel to ruin your eyesight. You know that one
 splash of a corrosive chemical can rob you of your vision permanently. Wear face shield & googles
 The worst excuse is that the job will take only a few minutes so it is unnecessary to put on goggles.
 Perhaps the job takes only a few minutes but remember it takes only a split second for the accident to
happen.
 There’s one more thing you should always bear in mind. If you get something in your eyes, don’t treat
or remove it yourself! Seek first‐aid immediately.

6. Working on scaffolds:

Before and during working on a scaffold the following rules should be applied to reduce the risk of accidents occurring.
These being:‐
 Do not use a scaffold while it is being erected or dismantled or it is in any way incomplete
 Report any scaffold which appears defective to your foreman.
 Check the scaff Tag before using
 Do not block the platform with stacked materials, so they cannot be knocked off the platform
 Load materials as near standards as possible, do not overload materials
 Do not leave tools or loose materials lying about, materials must be secured and tied.
 Never throw, tip or drop materials from heights
7. Safety Access Way:

 Never climb up or down the scaffold tubes. Use the access provided
 Material stacked above the toe board must be protected by nettings
 Materials must not be stacked above the guard rail
 Replace any toeboard or guardrail you have removed for short term access. Even if you leave the area for a short period
 Do not leave materials unattended on the platform, do housekeeping

8. Your right to know about hazardous chemicals:

 Sometimes you work with chemicals in your job. Do you know the names of the chemicals without looking at the labels? Do you
know how to handle them and store them safely without risking potentially dangerous exposure to them? What would happen to
you if you were overexposed to these chemicals?

 Always read the label on the container of a hazardous chemical. It can provide you with a lot of very useful information, such as
the name of the chemical you are using and any warnings describing its dangerous properties‐‐for example. WARNING – HIGHLY
FLAMMABLE! It may also provide handling and storage information, precautions for using the chemical
The following general precautions should be used around all chemicals:
 Never eat, drink or smoke around chemicals in the work area.
 Keep flammable and explosive material away from any heat source.
 Make sure there is enough ventilation in the work area. If you feel the slightest amount of dizziness or nausea, report the
  incident immediately to your supervisor.
 Use the proper PPE. This may include gloves, respirators and other special work clothing depending on the type of chemicals you
 are using. Keep all equipment clean and report any damage.
 Know how to properly dispose of all contaminated materials.
 Always use established procedures for handling, storing or transporting hazardous chemicals.

9. Food waste:

 All food packed in lunch boxes / styro faom / plastic bags are not allowed to eat on site offices / containers
/anywhere on site . Only on designated rest shelter areas, near motor bike parking areas are allowed to eat on site
Ater eating you must clean the area and must put food waste and other rubbish in containers that
can be closed, and other types of garbage bins. Do not leave or throw away food waste on the ground.
 The waste must not be a direct or indirect source of contamination that can attract pest like vermin /rats.
10. Come‐a‐longs, "coffin" hoists & chain hoist safety:

 Hand operated hoists have many applications in rigging work. Typical applications include hoisting pipe or plate into position for
welding or bolting, These devices are simple to operate but misuse can result in sudden failure, property damage, and serious injury.

Some things to keep in mind are:

 Inspect the hoist to be sure it is in good condition. Do not use any hoist that appears to have been overloaded. Anything that is
 cracked, bent, distorted, deformed or broken probably indicates overloading. Don't use it.
 You must know the weight of the load you plan to lift. Never attach a load greater than the capacity of the hoist.
 Never put a "cheater bar" on the operating lever or use more than one person to pull the lever. It is a sure sign that the hoist is
 overloaded if the load can't be moved by one person using a normal pull.
 Make sure that the structure your hoist is hanging from is strong enough to support the load you are lifting as well as any possible
 shock load.
 Apply the load evenly. Do not jerk bounce or allow the load to swing Any violent motion or shock loads could easily exceed the
 evenly. jerk, bounce, swing. capacity of your hoist.
 Never leave a suspended load unattended, and never work or walk under a suspended load or allow anyone else to do so.

 By keeping these things in mind, hoists can be used safely…think about it.
11. Welding and cutting safety:

 Damage to eyes and skin from continued or repeated exposure to ultra violet and infrared rays produced by electric arcs and gas
flames. (personal protective gear is needed).
 Fire hazards from welding or cutting near or on combustible or flammable materials, dusts, vapors, liquids of floors. (Proper fire
 protection should be taken like fire blanket and trays and fire extinguishers must be available and “Hot Work” permits should be
issued in particularly hazardous areas).
 Metal splatter and electric shock are also hazards that develop under certain conditions.
 Explosion hazards caused by dust and fumes. (Make sure the work area is adequately ventilated.)
 Turn off the torch valves of gas welding or cutting units. Shut off gas supply at point outside the confined space, and take the
torch and hose out of the area, if possible.
 When welding and cutting is finished, other workers should be warned to stay away from heated surfaces by marking hot metal
or putting up a sign.
 Do not use bare conductors or damaged regulators, torches, electrode holders, or other defective equipment.
 Do not do any arc welding while standing on damp or wet surfaces.
12. Safety precautions when using ladder in workplace:

1. Single and extension ladders should be placed on a firm, level surface. The distance from the ladder’s base to the wall should
equal one‐fourth the distance from the base to the point of support.
2. Never set ladders on boxes or other objects to make the ladder reach higher.
3. Lock or barricade doors that may open toward ladders.
4. Single and extension ladder should be equipped with nonskid safety feet.
5. Do not work with any electrical and power tools, welding and oxy cutting with a ladder, use scaffolding as working platform
6. Never use step ladders as straight ladders. Open step ladders fully and make sure the spreader is locked securely.
7. Never stand above the third rung from the top of a straight ladder or above the second highest step of a stepladder.
8. Only one person should be on a ladder at a time. Use safety harness when above 6 feet high.
9. While on a straight ladder, hold on with one hand and don’t over‐reach. It’s safer to climb down and move the ladder. Use a
safety harness if both hands have to be occupied.
10. If you use a metal ladder, make sure that it—or you—doesn’t come in contact with electric wires or equipment.
11. Never carry large objects while ascending or descending a ladder, and carry tools and accessories in proper holder or use
shoulder straps.
12. Always face the ladder when going up or down. Never work alone on a ladder, one person should always hold the ladder while
the other person are using the ladder.
13. Inspect all ladders at regular intervals.
14. Defective ladders should be tagged “DANGEROUS – DO NOT USE”, and remove from service without delay.
15. Ladder steps and rungs should be kept free from oil, mud or other slippery foreign matter. Ladders should not be painted
because paint may conceal defects.
16. When not in use, ladders should be kept on racks of sufficient supporting points to prevent sagging

13. The importance of PPE:

 You must be aware that when a rule requires the use of PPE's for a certain job on site , the rule has been
set up for your own protection. Yet we forget and leave our PPE's in the camp, home. in vehicles and
inside our bags.
 Our protective equipment may be a hard hat, gloves to protect our hands, safety shoes for our feet,safety
glass for our eye protection , ear plugs for our ears, respirators, full body harness, and safety vest . Every
worker knows his own job and knows what he needs to protect himself in the performance of his work.
 Workers have the right to get replacement of any damaged PPE, ask for your supervisors for
replacement if you see your PPE has already worn out and damage,and supervisors are also responsible to
each of his workers safety welfare.
 Safe clothing and equipment designed for our personal use is an important contributing factor towards
safety. The non‐use and abuse of safety clothing and equipment are contributing causes to many disabling
injuries. Workers are also responsible to use and store PPE's carefully to avoid unnecessary damages.
 Think seriously about the hazards each of us encounters everyday. See if you have all the necessary
protection for your job.
SAFETY EQUIPMENT, USE IT; DON’T ABUSE IT. IT MAY SAVE AN EYE, A FOOT OR A LIFE!
14. Emergency evacuation:

FOR EMERGENCY EVACUATION, THE ALARM WILL SOUND

• Stop Work
IMMEDIALETLY STOP THE WORK
• Isolate Energy Sources
SWITCH OFF YOUR MACHINES AND EQUIPMENTS
• March to Assembly Point
COME TO THE NEAREST ASSEMBLY POINT
DON’T PANIC/ DON’T RUN /WALK ONE BY ONE/ MAKE ROLL CALL OF YOUR WORKERS
1. Muster Point
‐ In Precast Yard site : The muster point is infront of motorbike parking house.
‐ In Erection Sites : The muster point is infront of site office.

15. Precautions around heavy equipment:

 Although heavy equipment operators have responsibilities and safe practices to operate by, we as workers, likewise have
responsibilities for our own safety.
 Here are a few “tips” to keep in mind if you need to visit or work at site preparation areas or other areas where equipment is
operating:

 If you have no business there, then KEEP‐OUT. Site preparation areas are not for curiosity seekers. Observe instructions from field
supervisors, guides or others in the area.
  The BASIC and most important safety precaution on any construction site is to STAY ALERT TO CONDITIONS AROUND YOU! A
construction site is in a constant state of change.
 Never approach equipment from behind. If driving, park or position your vehicle well clear of working areas.
 Always remain aware of the locations of equipment and adjust your actions accordingly. Don’t turn your back.
 Always give heavy equipment a wide berth. Give them the right of way.
 Never put yourself between a fixed object and equipment in motion. Your best defense is distance.
 If your business requires you to speak with the operator, wait until he sees you and acknowledges your presence before you
approach. Don’t approach until the equipment has completely stopped. Speak to the operator from the ground, don’t climb into the
cab. Never ride on equipment!
 Don’t set up your working area where equipment is operating nearby. Do not sit or rest around or under any heavy equipment. Tak
your breaks away from equipment, never near them.
 Above all, use your COMMON SENSE!

16. Dust, vapours and fumes:

 Dust can be hazardous to health if you breathe it into your lungs, swallow it from dirty hands or smoking,
 because it’s unnatural and the body will try to neutralise it using its natural defense mechanisms. You may
get a rasping cough or have difficulty breathing, especially asthmatics.
 You should aim to damp down with water all dusty areas and/or wear a face mask./dust mak
 Vapours are produced from some chemical substances at work such as diesel / petrol / paint, solvents,
adhesives etc. These can have more serious health implications especially when used in poorly ventilated
or confined spaces as they may actively attack the lungs and breathing passages.
 You should try to avoid these chemicals and use water based alternatives. If used in a confined space extra
precautions are required such as extraction and respiratory equipment. Blow in fresh air from a
compressor (with an oil separator) before entering. This work will need a permit.
 Fumes are produced from burning materials such as exhausts and fuel heaters. If not correctly
maintained, these can be poisonous and may displace oxygen, which has much the same effect.
 Switch it off and get it serviced.
IF IN DOUBT, ASK

17. Openings and edges:

If you could fall more than 2 metres then protection must be provided. This is not hard and fast, anything above 1.5m needs
consideration. The following list gives the idea of the required protection:

1. Scaffolds and floors– Double guardrails and toe‐boards must be provided to all working level edges, also secured ladders are
required. Ladders rising through working platforms must have trapdoors to prevent operatives stepping into the hole
2. Floors and Voids in slabs – Substantial protection must be provided to all lift openings, incomplete stairways and duct openings.
Voids must be securely covered and fixed down to prevent anyone picking up the ply and walking forwards. Signage must be provided
e.g “Hole Below”
3. Roofs ‐ Edge protection must be given . Where openings or fragile skylights occur in the roof, these must be guarded or securely
covered also. Lifelines must be installed and safety nets /catch nets to prevent fall and falling objects
4. Excavations ‐ All excavations require warning barriers or single guardrails. Where the sides are sloping, barriers may be sufficient
but if sides are vertical then more than adequate guarding is needed.
5. Working Alongside Water ‐ Guardrails and lifebelts are required where work is carried out alongside rivers, docks, etc.
6. Manholes ‐ Strong secured covers are required here especially in confine space areas. At times protection will need to be removed
to allow work to progress but this must be done in a controlled manner so that protection is fixed once the work is done. Keep them
covered and protected.
If you remove protection under instruction, make sure alternative barriers are in place during the work and the protection is
replaced afterwards.

18. Fire Safety:

 1- Fire Safety is important because of the presence of many types of combustible material at our work
areas. Example: Oils, Gases, Wood, Lubricating Materials, Electrical Tools, Rags, etc.

2- Base on the above dangers and to ensure a safe work place at our job site the following rules must be
observed at all times:

a) Do not place combustible materials such as rags, boxes, cleaning materials and oils close to
electric wiring or outlets.
If there is a short circuit in the wiring or outlets then there will be a fire.
b) All waste material such as packaging materials, materials used for cleaning, metal fillings, used
rags and all types of lubrication oils is to be removed and placed at the proper waste location for proper
disposal.HOUSEKEEPING is a must.
c) Storage of all combustible liquids and fuels is to be stored at their proper location with fire
extinguishing equipment in place.
d) Cigarette butt bins in smoking areas are to be emptied on a timely base.
This can be an ignition sores.
e) All oil or fuel spills is to be cleaned immediately.
Oil and fuel spills can give off gas vapors that can cause a fire when there is an ignition sores.
f) No volatile liquids, gases or oils should be located within 5m from any hot works activities.
The possibility of an explosion can be cause by heat or sparks. Check equipments before working any
hotworks activity. Fire extinguishers and fire blanket must be provided. Firewatcher must ensure no
combustible materials are in place or near the working area.
4 It is important to remember this safety rule:

WHERE THERE IS SMOKE THERE IS FIRE AND DISASTER WILL FOLLOW.

19. Hand tool safety:

Hammers, wrenches, chisels, pliers, screwdrivers, and other hand tools are often underrated as sources of
potential danger. Hand tools may look harmless, but they are the cause of many injuries .
To avoid such injuries, remember the following safety procedures:

1. Use the right tool for the job. Don't use your wrench as a hammer. Don't use a screwdriver as a chisel,
etc. Go back to the tool storage and get the right tool in the right size for the job.
2. Don't use broken or damaged tools, dull cutting tools, or screwdrivers with worn tips. Never use an
improvise or handmade tools , these are not allowed.
3. Cut in a direction away from your body.
4. Make sure your grip and footing are secured when using large tools. Always use hand gloves
5. Carry tools securely in a tool belt or box. Don't carry tools up ladders. Use a hoist or rope.
6. Keep close track of tools when working at heights. A falling tool can kill a co‐worker.
7. Pass a tool to another person by the handle; never toss it to them.
8. Use the right personal protective equipment (PPE) for the job. Follow company instructions for selecting
and using safety eyewear, steel toed shoes, gloves, hardhats, etc.
9. Never carry sharp or pointed tools such as a screwdriver in your pocket.
10. Always keep your tools in top condition. A dull blade or blunt point can lead to injury.
11. Store tools properly when you stop work. To avoid tripping hazards.
By following these precautions, you can help prevent injuries and provide a better workplace for everyone.
Remember, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!
20. Electrical safety:

With electricity we are dealing with something that cannot be seen and is still the most useful power controlled by man. It is useful but
can be a very destructive power to both man and material if the proper precautions are not taken. The danger is always there and we
must know what means of protection can be used to eliminate the hazards
Portable Power Tools
In construction, portable power tools with defective wiring cause many injuries. The following safe practices are recommended:
1. Use tools with three‐wire plug and make sure connections are tight.
2. Check tool, equipment and cables frequently for safe condition.
3. Disconnect tool before making any adjustment or repair.
4. When using power tools in wet area, take extra precaution. The shock hazard is increased.
Do not overload circuits
Use proper size wire for amps to be carried and also for grounding
All circuits must be fused or circuit breakers installed to give adequate protection
All circuits must be properly grounded
Wires must be protected from vehicle traffic
Temporary wiring must not be hung over nails, re‐bars or other metal objects. All cables must be elevated or hung on an S hanger or
Y hanger.
Periodic inspections should be made of all temporary electrical systems to ensure they are in safe condition.
If a circuit is de‐energized for any reason, tag and/or lock it “out of service” until it can be safely returned to service.
Know the hazards of electricity. It will help prevent injuries or even death!

21. Do’s and don’t in manual lifting:

Is LIFTING part of your job routine? If so, then everyday you risk injury from strains, sprains, hernia, cuts . If
you haven’t learned the basic of lifting, take time now.
DO
1. Before you begin, know the right way to do the job. Check with your boss if you have any question about moving a load
2. Always size up the load. Get help for heavy bulky objects.
3. Inspect your path or travel. Be wary of stairs and tripping hazards. Choose the safest route.
4. Be sure of a safe, firm grip. Check for nails and sharp edges. If the load is wet or slippery wipe it out.
5. Lift with your legs, not your back. Squat down close to the load, keep your back straight, and lift slowly with leg power.
6. Use matrail handling equipment whenever possible. Proper use of hand trucks and bodies save a lot of manual effort.
DON’T
1. Avoid heavy, manual jobs if you have had previous joint injuries are underweight or overweight have a special medical problem (weak, high
blood pressure)
2. Never lift more than you can easily handle, AS MUCH POSSIBLE USE LIFTING EQUIPMENT
3. Never lift with rounded back and straight legs.
4. Avoid twisting your body when lifting or carrying. Move your feet to change direction.
5. Never lift from an unbalance position. This means no lifting from one knee or reaching over another object to lift.
6. Never carry a load that blocks your view ahead.
