What is construction?
Construction is simply
a complex and flexible
process.
Because its complexity,
risks and hazards
should be taken in
consideration through
the planning and during
the construction must
be predictable.
What is hazards and risks in construction?
Risk is the probability that anevent will occur, that an individualwill become ill or die within astated period of time or age.
Hazard is a factor or exposure that mayadversely affect health; anything thathas the potential to cause harm.
missing safety during performing job In kyrenia/north Cyprus
Causes of chaos during construction in
kyrenia/north Cyprus:
Short construction time.
Budget.
resource (PPE)
hazard effect.
standard implementation.
lack of preparing training.
regulation observation.
feedback report.
Short construction time
The pressure of supervisor on the worker in order to perform their job before the end of the job.
While applying some safety standards i.e. work at height standards before the working the worker should prepare risk assessments which is take time.
Missing guiderail and surrounding the fall zone
Budget
While provides the work site with the safety equipment that make the contractor uncomfortable about the budget.
Preparing the workers with safety equipment i.e. Gloves, safety shoes, helmet, vest ,etc.
resource (PPE)
Lack of safety preschedule by the contractor or manager.
For example manyequipment don’t havecertificate to complyingwith safety work or missmanaging of preparingthe workers to get asafety indication or theydon’t organize to studythe hazard of theworking zone.
unstable plat form for construction service
hazard effect
Many engineers don’t consider the effect of hazards before starting or take it within his/her schedule job.
The predication of hazard should take like: falling zone should be isolated, and guide rail should be available.
Missing guiderail and surrounding the fall zone
standard implementation
Lacking a clear job safety standard.
At least the most causes increasing ratio of fatal or incident due to don’t apply safety which should be available. Work at height, mobility equipment, and energy isolation.
lack of preparing training
Regular safety training, introducing safety induction, produce a qualify worker regarding to OSHA …etc. all these activity lacking. With no supporting by worker organization, worker union and ministry of industrial
Worker before performing his/her job should be aware at least the safety mandatory, fire extinguish, first aid and symbol of safety (caution).
missing personal protective equipment while performing job.
regulation observation
Monitoring the project by the consultant limited for leveling the constructed project with neglecting the safety requirement and existing.
The monitor don’t mention the worker awareness toward safety.
feedback report
Weekly safety message regular report, incident analysis, updating safety standard regular (by consultant) all these related with reporting and communicating.
In construction project the supervisor engineer and the project manager must provide weekly or monthly report about the task of the project and activity in both construction and safety issue.
What is OSHA? occupational safety and health
administration which is the Standards that the laws in occupational safety and health act of 1970 create it.
These standards provide the right and responsibility for both employers and workers.
Inform employee about chemicalhazards through training, labels,alarms, color-coded systems,chemical information sheets andother methods, notify OSHAwithin 8 hours of a workplaceFatality or when three or moreworkers are Hospitalized, providerequired personal protectiveequipment at no cost to workers.
Occupational safety and
health administration
Site specific issues:
Personal protection
equipment (PPE).
Work at height.
Mobile equipment.
Safety induction.
Risk assessment.
Construction site in kyrenia/ north Cyprus
Personal protection equipment (PPE)
The working conditions in construction are in most cases such that
Head protection: Falling objects, overhead loads andsharp projections are to be found everywhere onconstruction sites. Safety helmets protect the headeffectively against most of these hazards.
Foot protection: Foot injuries fall into two broad types:those due to penetration of the sole by nails which havenot been knocked down or removed, and those due tocrushing by falling materials, which can be minimized bywearing protective footwear.
Hand and skin protection: Hands are extremelyvulnerable to accidental injury, and in construction moreinjuries are caused to hands and wrists than to any otherpart of the body. They are largely preventable by bettermanual handling techniques and equipment, and bywearing suitable hand protection such as protective glovesand gauntlets.
Eye protection: In industry many eye injuries occur as aresult of flying material, dust or radiation when breaking,cutting, drilling, dressing or laying of stone, concrete andbrickwork with hand or power tools.
Work at height
As part of the Regulations, duty holders must ensure:
all work at height is properlyplanned and organized;
those involved in work at heightare competent;
the risks from work at height areassessed and appropriate workequipment is selected and used;
the risks from fragile surfaces areproperly controlled; and
equipment for work at height isproperly inspected andmaintained.
Work at height in kyrenia with missing all the conditions
Mobile equipment
Many symbols and sign should be available in the work site in order to Pedestrian, worker, and project parties safety.
Safe for procedure i.e. the operator of any vehicle must know the organize guide sign and the specified vehicle path.
Safety induction
It’s a glance of safety visions and roles to enhance the worker realization about:
Understanding hazard and risk.
Assessing the risk.
Controlling the risk and hazard.
Learning first aid.
Procedure of fire extinguishment.
Risk assessment
General risk assessment mean :
Identify the hazard sources and classify the energy type. i.e. potential power
Studding the effect.
Measure the level of the hazard.
Applying a corrective action.
Finding out the risk residual after implementing a correction factor(if its still medium or high it should recreate new satisficed corrective action
Conclusion:
Providing safety and health in the site will lead to:
Systematic work
Increase safety awareness lead toproduce qualify workers
Expanded rigid data
Increasing reliability factor
Thank you for your attention
