OS training is training courses or educational program to help broaden worker and
employer knowledge on the recognition, avoidance and prevention of safety and
health ha0ards in their workplaces and how to properly use personal protective

addressed by conducting better training at the workplace. Training and education for
all level of workers are necessary to understand the ha0ard associated with their jobs
or processes, the prevention and control and the medical conse1uences.
Through proper training, we can categori0e the benefits gain by the workers to protect
them against the potential ha0ard as follows;
• Safety and health knowledge "ha0ard awareness$
• henever a new person is hired or whenever an employee is given a new job
assignment, normally the safety officer or supervisor will provide safety orientation or
specific task training to emphasi0e safety and health. The workers need to understand
that they are not e3pected to start working until they have been properly trained. The
workers will get valuable knowledge and well-trained to perform their jobs safely.
They will be able to identify ha0ard, and to perform the prevention and control
measures.
=or e3ample, when a worker is entering a confined space such as manhole, tank etc.
The well-trained worker "has learned about safe entry procedure$ will be able to use
specific tool to enter the dangerous confined space.

damages. =or e3ample, use of fire e3tinguisher by trained worker can e3tinguish a
small fire.
#.2.7 Periodic Sa"et, and (ealt& Training and !eveloment
ontinual periodic safety and health training helps us understand that accident
prevention must be a priority. >ithout periodic training, the work becomes routine,
alertness level dull, and a rela3ed attitude replaces the caution. >hat is critical is the
need for a regular effort toward improving safety knowledge through continual
periodic safety knowledge through continual periodic safety training.
=or e3ample, when an employer introduces new technology in construction process,
the employees need to learn the safety procedure to perform the process.

The case study described an emergency services and health care worker how he was
involved in an accident. The illness has caused him to suffer psychologically and he
has to bear long-lasting pain even though he had consulted doctor and physiotherapist
for treatment. The doctor and physiotherapist were not sure when he would fully
recover. e did reali0e that the importance of good manual handling techni1ues.

. einrich. e used a row of five stood
up dominoes as a model. Once, he tipped the first one over, each successive domino
topples the one ne3t to it. The first three dominoes were mistakes of people, the forth
domino was accident and the last was injury or the outcome of the accident.
The five factors from the model can be summari0ed as follows;
• The first domino% :ncestry and social environment, 7nherited or ac1uired
behaviour such as alcoholism and environment where a person was raised and
educated.
• The second domino% =ault of a person, inherited or ac1uired such as bad
temper and carelessness. :s a result of social environment or ancestry.
• The third domino% unsafe act or condition, for e3ample performing a job
without appropriate //2, poorly designed on improperly maintained
e1uipment, :s a result of fault of person.
• The =orth domino% :ccident occurs as a result of a personal or mechanical
ha0ard.
• The fifth domino% : person injury occurs as a result of an accident.
#.2.0 (uman actors T&eor,
This theory is about human errors cause accidents. The human errors can be
categori0ed as follows;
• Overload. The job is beyond the capacity of an individual, includes physical
and psychological factors and influences by environmental, internal and
situational factors.

and health care worker. 7n fact that worker was a well-trained and e3perienced in
manual handling such as lifting, pushing pulling and moving heavy items.
7n the case study, the worker performed two lifts. The first lifting, he was assisted by
two of his colleagues to lift the weight. 7n this case, three of them shared the weight.
owever, in the second lifting, he lifted and turned the weight himself. That moment
he felt a sharp pain in his neck.
7f we refer to the domino theory, we categori0e the mistake as fault of person. 7f we
review the domino theory, the model was a row of five stood up dominoes. >hen one
fallen, the rest of the dominoes would fall. Same thing happen to this case study, he
was a well-trained worker, and he knew that from first lifting, he did not have
capability to lift the weight himself. owever, due to his fault, he lifted the weight
himself. The domino theory mentions that the mistake or fault of person will cause
accident and subse1uently can cause injury.
>e also can use inappropriate activities in human factors theory. The worker was an
instructor in manual handling. e must be familiar with lifting techni1ues and he
should have performed or followed the manual handling procedure, however, he was
still caught in an accident. 7n this case study, the manual handling techni1ue or
procedure practiced by the organi0ation was not good enough to use. This cause the
worker misjudges the degree of risk involved of risk involved in his lifting.

The worker in this case study has suffered pain and psychological effect on his health.
=rom the case study, we can clearly identify the emotional or psychological issues
cause by the accident. The psychological effects that the worker bears are as follows;
• ould not turn his head to the right
• is sleep was disturbing and difficult to get into a comfortable position.
• Resting on the job.
• Aied flat out on the ground to get relief from the pain.
• Aack of mobility% difficult to get up off the ground.
• +oredom
• =eeling of low self-worth% the employer did not give consideration or
sympathy for e3tra sick leave.
• 9o assurance he would fully recover from the illness.
• ould not perform heavy carrying and limited sport activities.
The pain and emotional or psychological impact were the injuries caused by the
accident. The pain might be more damaging than the psychological issues. owever,
this is no always the case, the psychology reports provide evidence that mental well-
being is a crucial part of maintaining a balance and healthy life and the problems can
just crippling, if not more so, than any other physical ailment.
$.#.0 T&e Corrective 3easures.
To establish corrective action for this case study, we can categori0e the corrective
action into three B26 factors.

20/30
$.#.1 +ngineering
The engineering of corrective action is to control ha0ards through product design or
process change. 7n this case study, the employer shall update the training subjects and
materials and to develop effective rules and procedures or guidelines for safe work
practices for the workers to learn and practice at workplace. The procedures shall also
include the necessary employee accident reporting re1uirement, accident investigation
by senior personnel, report assessment and safety and health audits.
$.#.2 +ducation Training Program !eveloment
The education is to train workers regarding all facets of safety. 7n this case study, all
the workers need to attend regular training, as we know that the accident involved a
well-trained worker, which means the workers need to update their knowledge to
avoid similar accident from occurring 7n the future. 7n engineering corrective action,
the training subjects and materials were developed relating to identified ha0ards,
accident and incident data.
:ll managers and supervisors are also re1uired to participate in the ongoing safety
training programs. That processes are necessary because the senior employees should
aware and capable to make safety and health report assessments and audits.
$.#.# +n"orcement
The ne3t corrective action is to make sure that the rules, regulations, and standard
operating procedures are follows by worker as well as management. =rom the case
study, the worker still saw poor manual handling techni1ues at workplace after the
accident. :s an instructor, he should enforce the rules on all the workers and punished
the workers who were violating the rules.

7n conclusion, the management and employees must improve the safety and health
system in the organi0ation. The improvement of engineering, education and
enforcement are necessary to avoid the accident from occurring in the future.

e3cavator machinery for this work.
:mong the ha0ards found in the study, the employees must take immediate action to
control the ha0ards of high risk level. The person-in-charge will make the inspection
and recoding for the action taken to control the risks. 7n this study, there are two types
of ha0ards with high risk level% they are cave-ins during e3cavation and object fall
during steel rebar reinforcement.
=or ha0ards with medium level of risks% the employees must control the risks by
implementing the control measures recommended in the register. The person-in-
charge is responsible to control the risks at workplace.
=or low level risks% the person-in-charge will monitor the situation at workplace, he
may re1uire the workers to follow the recommended control measures.
The person-in-charge and the risk register or 7R:R form are important in
controlling the safety risks because the low level risk can become high level risk if
there is no appropriate action taken to control the risk.
