generally poor• Drivers :

• Emergency response : drivers had no idea what to do incase of an emergency rather during investigation it was realized that some drivers reaction might be more harmful than the actual incident, escalating the situation
• MSDS/Trem-card : material safety data sheet was not available on most of the trucks and the drivers were not literate enough to read and understand
• Handling: inappropriate handling methods, no protective gears, direct exposure
• Safety: no fire fighting gears no PPE • Cargo exposure: some of the cargo was transported on flat bed no
container or containing medium

• ER PLAN• OBJECTIVE• To ensure that in times of emergency, • maximum action will be taken to combat any peril likely to bring
problems to people, property and the environment.• Training of staff to react to emergency such as spill, fire, etc.• To train staff on bringing spillages to its minimum level.• For minor accidents/incidents where no significant damage is done & is
still safe to operate an incident report should be developed but in case of serious accident/incident emergency response plan should be activated mobilizing the emergency response team
• The ER Plan should contain– roles and responsibility during emergency– Contact details and emergency numbers, police fire service– Possible scenario if scenario is not available consult base controller.– Investigation procedure– Recovery procedure– Reporting procedure– Press / Media handling
Emergency response
2nd Biennial National Safety Conference, 2013
• Good – There are companies or UNIONS who are trying to manage
transport as per best practice– Comply with local international standard and sign to ISO or OHSAS
EPA.– Procedures and processes available no need to invent the wheel– Ghana customs track cargo
• Bad– There are much more companies or unions that don’t really care – Complying cost is expensive. – Training and other requirement is out of reach– Not equipped to train and to implement.
• Ugly– Regulating Bodies on it s own will not be able to achieve the goals – Regulating bodies need a collective support from international
and local (involving private sector).– Great ideas available but finances is out of reach(passport to
operate to be implemented).
Conclusion The Good, the Bad & the Ugly
