that no procedures were preferably honoured, workers were forced to give productivity at their
sense cost shows lack of management commitment

which influences negatively

inappropriate as temporary worker may have been hired to a very specific task and specific
locality which may have result in deprived training for the permanent newbies.

competency or copying other which will be result in increasing the risk to perform a job

 Lack of financial resources were utilised by organization for improving health and safety
arrangements and safety culture.

risk, however organisation must provoke supervision for guidance to avoid any risk. Secondly

Display screen equipment use

conveyed during induction training sessions

proper organizational changes could be made to avoid the disrupt statistic and enhance worker
to work productively.

 During the reversing of truck there was lack of supervision which resulted in accident and severe
consequences

 High turnaround rate due to improper facilities and no consultation with the worker to uplift
their moral especially when there are already bad events happening

 The directors were not interested on seeing the findings of the audits reflecting that safety was
not a prioritize element which kept the working environment risky and in chaos.

 No professional fire marshals were designated so no one had believed that any emergency can
be successfully handled.

 Risk assessment were not specific and not updated and reviewed leaving all the hazards out of
control to workers.
