Observations
INTRODUCTION
The inspection was carried out in Larsen & Toubro Construction & Mining
Machinery Limited Bangalore, Karnataka. Construction and service of construction
equipments and mining machineries is done here.
The inspection was carried out on 3rd July 2018. The inspection was carried out from
10 AM to 10:45 AM. The temperature was 30ºC in the industry.
There were 3 work shift and around 800 people work for 8 hours in a single shift.
About 2400 people are currently working there. There are 4 entrance and 4 exit for the
company.
The main purpose of the inspection is to identify the possible hazards and give the
suitable control measures to avoid the accident and to protect the workers. Also the
inspection was carried out to comply with the legal requirements and to avoid
financial and property damage.
Work areas like assembly line, storage area, construction area, mining area, parking
area, service area, office, roadways for the vehicle, packing and shipping area, other
work departments, etc are covered in this inspection.
Work equipments in the construction site, mining area, and service centre like jack
hammer, drilling machines, hammer, screwdriver, electric sander, spanner, chisel,
grinding machines, metal cutting saw, etc and other work equipments were inspected.
Mechanical handling and mobile work equipment in the construction area, mining
area and service centre like conveyor, fork-lift, hoist, crane, backhoe loader,
bulldozer, crane, truck, road roller, tractor, etc were well inspected.
The welfare facilities like drinking water, toilet facility, washing facility, transport,
resting and eating, first-aid, lockers, etc and work environment requirements like
space, seating, ventilation, light, temperature noise, emergency escape routes, etc
were also inspected.
Several hazards were found while inspecting the industry, so I came up with the
suitable control measures to avoid the hazard before happening.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
During the inspection I found some major hazards which can be fixed easily and quickly in
order to avoid major accidents in the company. Fixing these hazards will improve the health
and safety in the company.
The men working at the heights of the construction area are using old expired safety harness.
In case of any accident these safety harness will not hold them. Provide them with good
quality and new safety harness.
Obstacles like broken wood, unused machines, damaged wires were found in the
3rd emergency escape route of the industry. Due to presence of obstacles the people mainly
the vulnerable group cannot use the 3rd escape route during fire accident and they will be
exposed to fire. Remove the obstacles and maintain good housekeeping in the escape routes.
I found vehicle travelling at high speed in warehouse which leads to collision with nearby
structure, people and stacking. Take strict action on the driver and only competent person
with valid driving licence must be used.
Also found the absence of fire alarm and smoke detectors in the mining machinery service
area. People may not know the fire hazard and people will get severe injuries due to fire.
Provide fire alarms and smoke detectors in the particular area as soon as possible.
The broken switches were found in the resting and eating areas, while using them they
produce shock to the user. Remove the broken switches and fix new and good quality
switches.
The backhoe loader was operated too close to the pedestrian pathway without any barricade
or signboards and the people were using the pathway. If the arm of the backhoe loader hits
the people it leads to severe injury, sometimes fatality. So change the pathway for pedestrians,
barricade the area and provide necessary sign boards.

Conclusion
I thank the management for providing me such an opportunity to visit the company and allowing me
to do the health and safety inspection in the company. I hope my inspection will really help your
company to maintain the health and safety standards.
From my inspection I found that the welfare facilities drinking water, toilet facility, washing facility,
changing facility, transport facility, resting and eating facility, locker rooms and proper first-aid
requirements were properly provided and well maintained. The relationship between the worker and
the organization is good. This relationship helps in development of the industry.
Apart from this I also found some hazards in the work site and came up with proper control measures
to eliminate and reduce the hazards. There are few hazards which requires more attention and has to
be fixed as soon as possible. Failure to take action on these hazards will result in major accident.
Failure to fix these hazards may lead to loss of life, loss of company reputation, property damage and
to face the legal consequences.
For easy identification I have mention below the main findings with the effective recommend to
control the hazard:
1) Falling from height due to use of expired safety harness in the construction area.
2) Fire Hazard can cause due to presence of obstacles in the 3 rd escape route.
3) Vehicle Hazard can cause because of the over speed of the vehicle inside the warehouse.
4) Fire Hazard, Absence of smoke detectors and fire alarms mining machinery service area.
5) Electric Hazard due to broken switches and switch boards at eating and resting area.
6) Impact Hazard, Working with backhoe loader near pedestrian area at construction area.
7) Entanglement Hazard causes due to unguarded conveyers at the mining area.

Recommendations
1) Provide good quality safety equipments like safety harness to the workers
2) Maintain good housekeeping all around the industry mainly in the emergency escape routes.
3) Use only competent vehicle drivers and strict traffic rules must be followed mainly while
driving inside the industry.
4) Maintain proper road conditions and pathway conditions inside the industry.
5) Provide smoke detectors and fire alarms all around the industry.
6) Provide proper switches and switch boards and maintain to avoid electric hazard.
7) Provide necessary sign boards and barricade while working near the pedestrian pathway with
heavy machineries or equipments.
8) Guard all the equipments with good quality guards and proper guards in the industry.
These are the main hazards which requires special attention from the management side in order to
eliminate and reduce the hazard and risk. Please make sure that the control measures are properly
implemented and actions are taken at the right time. And also take action on other hazards which are
mentioned in the observation and implement proper control measures as mentioned in the observation.
There are some small correction to be done in order eliminate and reduce the minor hazards in the
industries. Sometimes these minor hazards may become major hazards so it is important to take
actions on these minor hazards.
