Safety At Site

Jaypee Group believes it to be the responsibility of all.

Tool box talk -2 times/week

A safety supervisor to be always present at site ,to monitor all the

safety checklists

PPE were worn by workers

Safety signboards were installed at entrance

Helmets are compulsory

ALL OF THIS WAS JUST

DOCUMENTATION, REALITY WAS

QUITE DIFFERENT…….

NO HELMET NO SAFTEY BELT

Case which happened on site

resulting in fatality

Immediate Actions taken on Case:

This accident took place at garden isles project in Jaypee Wish

Town. After this case, the construction activity was stalled for two

days.

Health and Safety department at Jaypee prepared an investigating

report which only contained name of person, cause of fatality and

compensation to be paid with an attached copy of the F.I.R.

Given the case to investigate

After this case, we were asked about our opinion about the matter.

We suggested that due to this fatality the construction activity was

stopped for 2days, resulting in huge loss in the productivity.

We also pointed out that, only on this site alone there have been 6

fatalities due to unavailability of PPE’s and improper supervision from

the In-Charge.

So after this we were given a week’s time to investigate the reason

for the fatality, understand the mindset of workers and staff towards

safety and remedial actions which we as Nicmarian’s can suggest.

Investigation

Contd…

So we went to site to investigate the case, and found

that there was no safety net provided while the worker

was removing the above net.

As per safety guidelines, while removing the safety net

another net should be installed at a place just below

where the previous net existed and another net 6 floors

below that for extra protection but none of this safety

measures were taken, resulting in this fatality.

Fell from 12th floor

Was trying to remove safety net

OUR INTERVENTION

OUR INTERVENTION

WORKING WITHOUT PPE’S WORKING WITH SAFETY BELT

Visible changes on site

Caution Tape installed

New Horizontal Safety Net

Safety Belt was being used

Shortfall In Safety

Only few workers at site wore safety shoes other all workers worked

in slippers and were allowed to do so.

Some laborers were not wearing safety belt

There were many duct openings were no rail or covering object was

kept.

In basement area workers worked continuously for hours without any

PPE’s and were exposed to dust particles which are potential

occupational health hazards.

Mosquito problem at labor camps which wasn’t addressed.

Reason given by them….

The mindset of the workers towards safety was awful. They didn’t

imply to basic requirements of working at heights like wearing

helmet, safety boots and wearing a safety harness while working on

the edges.

The reason given by them for not wearing PPE’s was that, it hindered their productivity and movement. When the in-charge was present

they would wear the PPE’s but as soon he is gone they would

remove them.

The amount of these PPE’s per worker ratio was also very less.

Remedial action suggested…

The remedial action we suggested after the investigation was:

Preparation of safety reports which were Job Hazard Analysis (JHA)

and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA), which was accepted by company.

Issue of sufficient amount of PPE’s for the site which was its in-house

construction from the store as per requirement given by tower-in-

charge.

Quality Testing

SIEVE ANALYSIS OF COARSE AGGREGATE (IS 2386-1983)

FLAKINESS INDEX OF COARSE AGGREGATE (IS 2386-Part 1)

SPECIFIC GRAVITY OF AGGREGATES by Pycnometer (IS 2386- Part 3)

Impact and Crushing strength of Aggregates. (IS 2386- Part 4)

Silt Content of Sand. (IS 2386- Part 2)

Note: Cement was not tested as Jaypee Cement was used in

construction.

My Recommendations

Use of PPE’s by all the workers on site.

Stacking of Steel to be done on an elevated platform rather than on the ground.

Cleaning of cement stores & properly stacking cement bags to avoid its spoilage from rain water.

Adequate curing has to be carried out as shrinkage cracks are being formed in slabs.

Hooks to be bended properly 45o in columns.

The steel yard can be organized properly separating the waste steel from the stacked material and proper cover for steel yard should be maintained protecting the steel from unexpected weather condition.

There is a problem of mosquito at labour camp so there is a chance

of viral infection being spread. This problem should be addressed.

Use of MSP for planning, tracking and monitoring of the project.

My Recommendations
