Shop Safety
OSHA• Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (Act)• Part of federal government that
governs workplace safety– Protects the worker
• OSHA Web site for Young Workers– http://www.osha.gov/SLTC/teenworkers/index.html
Shop Safety
EPA• Environmental Protection Agency
(Act)• Part of the federal government
that governs environmental impact– Protects the environment
Shop Safety
Lockout/Tagout• Standard established by
OSHA• Purpose – prevent injury
while repairing, maintaining, inspecting, etc machinery
• Controls all energy sources (electricity) used, stored or produced by equipment.
Shop Safety
Lockout/Tagout• Uses two items:
– Lock (key or combination type) to Lockout the energy source.• i.e. – Lock on the circuit breaker or on
switch– Tag with name and date on it to
identify who has locked out the machine• Tag can ONLY be removed by the
person who Tagged out the equipment
Shop Safety
PPE• Personal Protective Equipment
– Protects you from risk of injury by creating a barrier between you and the hazard
• Use is not a substitute for safe work practices
Shop Safety
PPE• Employers must make sure you
have PPE• YOU must
– Be trained in using PPE– Make sure PPE fits you– Use it correctly
Shop Safety
PPE• Eye Protection
– Safety Glasses – Face Shields
– Protects against • Impact (flying objects)• Chemicals• Dust
Shop Safety
PPE• Steel-toed shoes
– Protects against:• Falling or rolling objects• Sharp objects
– Safety shoes should be sturdy and have an impact-resistant toe.
Shop Safety
PPE• Aprons
– Protects from Chemicals
– Protects from inks
Shop Safety
PPE• Protective gloves
– Ensure gloves are designed to protect from the hazard
– Ensure the gloves fit– Inspect your gloves
NEVER wear gloves when cleaning the press!
Shop Safety
PPE• Hearing Protection
– Decibel – Unit of measure that is used to measure sound
– Abbreviated as dB – 90 dB in 8-hour work day
Shop Safety
PPE• Hearing Protection
– Ear Plugs– Ear Muffs– Or Both!
• iPod/mp3/radio headphones DO NOT COUNT!!!!
• Hearing Loss tends to be a slow loss! PROTECT IT!
Shop Safety
PPE - Summary• Be sure you are trained BEFORE
using your PPE• Choose the right PPE for the job• Make sure the PPE fits you
properly• Inspect your PPE and make sure
it is in good condition• Discard any PPE that is not safe
Shop Safety
First Aid• First, and temporary, aid given to
an injured person– Remove all energy sources – turn
off the power– Administer 1st aid– Remain calm
• Report ALL accidents to your supervisor no matter how minor!
Shop Safety
Bloodborne Pathogens• Disease-causing microorganisms
carried in blood or other bodily fluids– HIV/Aids– Hepatitis B
Shop Safety
Bloodborne Pathogens• Who is at Risk?• Know how they can affect you• Know how you can become
infected• Know how to protect yourself
Shop Safety
Bloodborne Pathogens• Treat all body fluids as being
infectious• Following safe work and personal
practices• Wear appropriate PPE
– Put a barrier between you and the injured person
– Leather gloves will not work
Shop Safety
HazCom• Hazard Communication Standard
– AKA: “The Right-to-Know”• Right to know about the
hazardous chemicals in your workplace
• The best rule of chemical safety is:– “Know what you are working with
and how to protect yourself and others.”
Shop Safety
HazCom• There are 2 basic types of
chemical hazards– Physical Hazards– Health Hazards
Shop Safety
HazCom• Physical Hazards - The physical
properties of the chemical render it hazardous– Explosive– Compressed gas– Combustible– Flammable– Unstable– Water reactive– Oxidizers
Shop Safety
HazCom• Exposure to hazardous chemicals
may cause or contribute to a wide range of health concerns including:– Heart problems– Kidney disease – Lung disease– Cancer– Sterility– Burns– Rashes
Shop Safety
HazCom• Chemicals can enter your body in
many different ways. The primary routes of entry are: – Inhalation– Ingestion– Absorption– Injection
Shop Safety
HazCom• Exposure to hazardous chemicals
may be either:
• Acute – brief exposure
• Chronic – repeated or prolonged
Shop Safety
HazCom• The written HazCom program
must, at a minimum, include:– A list of all hazardous chemicals
known to be in the workplace– A Material Safety Data Sheet
(MSDS) and label for each hazardous chemical
– A training plan to communicate hazard information to employees
Shop Safety
HazCom• Warning labels can grab your
attention with words like:
• “Danger”
• “Warning”
• “Caution”
Shop Safety
HazCom• The identity of the chemicals• The appropriate hazard warnings • The name and address of the
manufacturer or other responsible party
Shop Safety
HazCom• Color Codes• Number Codes
HEALTH
FLAMMABILITY
REACTIVITYSPECIAL
Chemical Name
Shop Safety
HazComThe color codes represents the
following information:
• Blue = Health • Red = Flammability• Yellow = Reactivity• White = Special hazard
information and special protective
information
Shop Safety
HazCom• Number Codes:
– 0 to 4– The higher the number the more
hazardous the chemical• 4 = Small exposure could cause
death• 3 = Small exposure could cause
injury• 2 = Intense or chronic exposure
could cause injury• 1 = Exposure could cause irritation• 0 = No Hazard
Shop Safety
Safety Color Codes• Green – Location of Safety and 1st
Aid Equipment
Shop Safety
Safety Color Codes• Yellow – Caution and marks
physical hazards– Operating Handles– Waste Containers for Combustible
materials– Areas with tripping hazards
Shop Safety
Safety Color Codes• Orange – Parts of Equipment
which may cut, crush, shock or otherwise injure– Electrical Switches– Fuses– Power Boxes– Movable Guards
Shop Safety
Safety Color Codes• Red – Location of
firefighting equipment– Emergency fire exits– Fire extinguishers– Emergency Stop Switches– Portable containers of
flammable liquids
Shop Safety
Fire Safety
Shop Safety
Fire Safety• Classes of Fires
– A – Ordinary Combustible Material• Wood, paper, fabric
– B – Flammable Liquids and Gases• Solvents, oil, gases
– C – Electrical Equipment– D – Flammable Metals
Shop Safety
Fire Safety• Extinguishing Classes of Fires
– A – Use Water, Make sure embers are cold – if not, they can reignite
– B – Smother, DO NOT use water
– C – Remove source of electricity, DO NOT use water
Shop Safety
Fire Safety• When using Fire Extinguishers
follow these steps:
• P – Pull the pin• A – Aim the nozzle• S – Squeeze the handle• S – Sweep from side to side
Shop Safety
Ergonomics • Ergonomics is the applied
science of coordinating devices, environments, tasks, or procedures to fit the individual worker.
Shop Safety
Ergonomics• Injury can be caused
by:–Awkward
• Posture• Bending • Twisting• Working with your
hands above your head or your elbows above your shoulders.
Shop Safety
Ergonomics• Injury can be caused by:
– Repetitive Movements• Some jobs may require you to perform
the same movements over and over again.
• Repetitive movements can irritate your tendons and increase pressure on your nerves.
Shop Safety
Ergonomics• Injury can be caused by:
– Force (amount of muscular effort used to perform work)
Exerting large amounts of force can result in fatigue and physical damage to your body.
Shop Safety
Ergonomics• Injury can be caused by:
– Contact Stress • Internally occurs when a tendon, nerve or
blood vessel is stretched or bent around a bone or tendon.
• Externally occurs when a part of your body rubs against a sharp or hard object such as the edge of a desk or table.
Shop Safety
Ergonomics• Injury can be
caused by:– Vibration
• Excessive vibration can decrease blood flow, damage nerves, and contribute to muscle fatigue.
Shop Safety
Ergonomics – Personal Risk Factors
• Physical condition• Psychological stressors• Gender• Age• Body size• Medical condition
Shop Safety
Ergonomics - Safe Lifting
• The most common work-related medical problem is lower back pain.– This is often a result of poor
lifting techniques.– Think before you lift!
• Test the load and ask yourself – “Can I lift it safely?” If not, get help!
• Make sure there is nothing in your path that could cause you to fall.
Shop Safety
Ergonomics - Safe Lifting
• Squat to bend at the knees
• Keep your head up • Get a good grip with
both hands and hold it close to the body.
• Lift smoothly using your legs –not your back.
• Turn with your feet, don’t twist your back.
Shop Safety
Ergonomics• What can you do?
– Adjust your tasks or environment to fit you
– Reduce risk factors– Avoid unnecessary
movements– Always practice safe
lifting– Use the tools that are
right for you– Perform light stretching
and other exercises before and during work
