Introductory Message
Welcome to Business Enterprise!

The Learning Activity Sheet is a product of the collaborative efforts of

the Schools Division of Negros Occidental through the Curriculum Instruction
Division (CID). This is developed to guide the learning facilitators (teachers,
parents, and responsible adults) in helping the learners meet the standards set
by the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum.
The Learning Activity Sheet is self-directed instructional material aimed
to guide the learners in accomplishing activities at their own pace and time using
the contextualized resources in the community. This will also assist the learners
in acquiring lifelong learning skills, knowledge, and attitudes for productivity and
employment.

For learning facilitator:

The Business Enterprise Activity Sheet will help you facilitate the
leaching-learning activities specified in the Curriculum Guide/TESDA Training
Regulation with minimal or no face-to-face encounter between you and the
learner. This will be made available to the learners with references/links to ease
the independent learning.

For the learner:

The Business Enterprise Activity Sheet is developed to help you
continue learning even if you are not in school. This learning material provides
you with meaningful and engaging activities for independent learning. Being an
active learner, carefully read and understand the instructions then perform the
activities and answer the assessments. This will be returned to your facilitator
on the agreed schedule.

SAFETY IN THE WORKPLACE
According to the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), Work
Immersion is an integral part of the K-12 Program in fully realizing its goal to
produce job-ready graduates quipped with industry – base skills.
Likewise, it strongly affirms that while work immersion contributes to the
full realization of the objectives of the K to 12 Program, the safety, health, and
morals of SHS students, especially those below 18 years of age, shall be a
paramount area of consideration.
Hence, being a Work Immersion student, who will also become employees,
or even an employer or an entrepreneur soon, you must learn this lesson.
Occupational Safety and Health Standards (OSHS)
This was formulated in 1978 in compliance with the constitutional mandate
to safeguard the workers’ social and economic well-being as well as their
physical safety and health.
Article 162 of the Labor Code of the Philippines: Safety and health standards
- was promulgated to set and enforce mandatory occupational safety and
health standards to eliminate or reduce occupational safety and health
hazards in all workplaces, and institute new and update existing programs,
to ensure safe and healthful working conditions in all places of
employment.
- this body of rules and regulations is referred to as “Standards.”
OSHS aims to protect every working man and woman against the dangers
of injury, sickness or death through safe and healthful working conditions;
thereby, assuring the conservation of valuable manpower resources and the
prevention of loss or damage to lives and properties, consistent with national
development goals and with the State’s commitment for the total development of
every worker as a complete human being.
Standard terminologies you have to learn and understand:

IDENTIFYING AND PREVENTING HAZARDS IN THE WORKPLACE

What is hazard?
- Hazard is anything with potential to cause injury, illness, or damage.
Page | 3
Types of Hazards:
1. Physical Hazards
These are brought by unhealthy working conditions, poor lighting,
poor ventilation, insufficient facilities, inefficient or faulty equipment or
machine, and improper work practices like wrong use of knives.
2. Biological Hazards
These are brought about by workers infected with diseases or
illnesses, unhygienic personal practices that can transmit bacteria, parasites,
fungi to other workers and food and equipment being handled. Hence, it is
advised that Covid-19 probable cases should be isolated right away.
3. Ergonomic Hazards
These are brought by poor posture when working long periods of
standing, bending, pushing, lifting, carrying that can cause body stress,
muscle pains, and soreness, back injury, numbness of hands, feet and other
parts of the body.
4. Psychological Hazards
These are brought by too much stress from work that may cause
mental emotional strains, anxieties, depression- losing focus on one’s work
and others.
When potential hazard is discovered, what does an employee need to do?
• Be sure that every individual in the workplace is aware of the problem.
• Inform or notify your supervisor. Unless you are the supervisor, then get going
on that safety committee plan.
• Make a follow up. Informing about the hazard is not an assurance that
problem is resolved, unless you make follow ups.
• Record or file any reports or documents about the problem.
