First you will need to develop a safety policy statement.

It should consist of short, clear instructions each employee can say.
Explain the goals of your safety policy statement.

This unit highlights the safety instructions

related to scaffolds, Heights and ditches
1-Scaffolding
Read and listen to the following story by a worker:
At the workplace, we build up ,dig down and clean the

site. When we build a wall, we use cement, bricks and iron The site
is full of small pieces of iron, cement dust and parts of bricks. Safety officers
are always there to help us. Their job is to make the site safe.
Builders have to use scaffolds to build high walls.

Safety officers make sure that a scaffold is used ONLY after inspection by a
scaffold supervisor.
A safety officer should inspect the scaffold before use. He should see the
reports by scaffold supervisors. He should test the different ties of the scaf-
fold. He should check the edge protection.
Now check the following

1-Inspected means (tested – built).
Say if you think the following instructions are True (T) or False (F)
(1) A scaffold supervisor should test it before use.
(2) Leave everything on the scaffold at the end of the shift.
(3) Overload the scaffold with all the material you are using.
(4) After bad weather, windy and hot days, check the ties and bolts.
(5) Get additional training when new hazards present themselves.
(6) the ground should be tested before the base plates are fixed.

This unit highlights causes and effects of fire, and ways to prevent it to pro-
tect personnel and equipment.
Reading: Read the following and then think about it.
A. What is fire?
Fire is a good servant; when it serves you and serves work. You control it. It is
under control. But, when it is out of control, and it starts burning
people and objects, it becomes the master. It is a monster.
B. What are the causes of fire?

Fire is a combination of the following:
Flammable material (wood –cloth –gas) + oxygen + ignitor
Fire results from overheat , or an electric spark or sparks from
welding works near a flammable substance.
Overheat can melt metal objects. For example, a car engine will become so
hot first. This will show on the gauge. Then, flammable material (rub-
ber/gas) will start burning in the presence of oxygen.

1- heating 2- leak 3- spark 4- flammable 5- cut
*All hoses should be checked for cuts, and cracks. These

cause gas leaks. You can discover gas leaks through sight, smell and sound.

1- Fire breaks out in the absence of oxygen. (T) (F)

2- A gas hose with leaking cracks is not a hazard. (T) (F)
