ACCIDENT PREVENTION TIPS IN ENGLISH

Taking these simple steps will help to ensure we maintain a safe and healthy workplace:

Keep the workplace clean and tidy. Clean up if you create a mess and do not leave it for
1
someone else to deal with.
Use the machine guards provided. Do not use a machine if the guard is missing or
2
damaged. Never remove a guard unless you have been authorised.
Check the machine guards are in good working order at the beginning of your shift.
3
Damaged or missing guards can lead to serious accidents.
If you see a problem, fix it. If you are unable to do so, tell your supervisor and make sure
4
the machine is not used until it is safe to do so.
Loose clothing, long hair, jewellery and other items can get caught in machines. Tie hair
5 back or use a hairnet and wear clothes that have close fitting or short sleeves. Avoid
items of clothing or jewellery being allowed to dangle.
Do not obstruct corridors, exit doors, fire doors or other areas designed to be used in an
6
emergency.
All accidents, even minor injuries, must be recorded in the accident book. This
7
information can highlight a serious problem and prevent a more serious accident.
8 Wear sensible shoes. Non-slip soles are a good idea.
9 Safety footwear must be worn in areas where items might be dropped on your feet.
Only trained and authorised drivers are permitted to use workplace vehicles including
10 fork lift trucks, pedestrian operated lift trucks or similar. Do not attempt to use these
unless you have been trained to do so.
11 Never ride on workplace transport or equipment that is not designed for the purpose.
Wear your hearing protection. The damage to your hearing is gradual and may go
12
unnoticed. Noise induced hearing loss can’t be fixed.
Make sure acoustic hoods and enclosures are properly used. These prevent noise
13
reaching hazardous levels and may prevent access to danger areas.
Smoking and alcohol are prohibited. Smoking increases the risk of fire. The use of alcohol
14
dulls the senses and makes individuals prone to having or causing an accident.
Do not eat or drink in the workplace. Workplace contaminants can be ingested with
15
food. Always eat in designated areas and thoroughly wash your hands before doing so.
Comply with safety signs. Signs highlight dangers in specific areas or inform of more
16
general risks such as noise.
