Transcript: By: Evelyn Hernandez Worldwide Construction Safety Organization (WCSO) Junior Carl Wunsche Sr High School San Jacinto North Community College Sam Houston State University Construction Management Business Management Developing my topic Mission Statement Machinery not well maintained Area is not secure No supervisor available No fall protection Safety gear requirements not obeyed Problem ANY QUESTIONS? Family members in the construction field, I have heard their stories. This connects to my pathway, currently taking Architecture and Construction, kids have gotten hurt because of their lack of attention. I want my future workers to feel secure and work safe. Why companies take construction seriously Highlights Example of Problem Leading to Solution My goal is to reduce construction fatalities and deaths. Construction Safety The Creation Skills USA Spanish National Honor Society There are too many fatalities and deaths in the construction field. Job risks are continuously increasing. Simple mistakes, carelessness, or lack of attention have cause most accidents. 350,000 workers die every year due to job accidents, of which 60,000 occur in the construction field. About Me Companies keeping assets safe Many companies want safety to save money and keep a good reputation As seen on video, safety gear is important Supervisor is required My challenge is to determine a way of reducing so many accidents occurring in the US. There are many organization that are not taken serious Some protections needed are too expensive Many small construction companies do not force their workers to attend any construction safety organizations

Transcript: What is the safety performance of construction industry compared with other industries? Discuss the reasons of the difference. safety peformance of construction in dustry Overview High accident rate High fatality rate compare with other developed countries. No. of deaths per 10,000 workers in construction industry Accident rate is the highest among developed countries. compare with other industry high accident rate accident rate per 1000 worker in 2010 is around 50 but only not only one year High fatality rate construction is highest within all industry in Hong Kong but according to the working population by industry only 8 % population on construction industry indicate the fatality rate is high because the population is low but number of the dead cases is highest also why compare with more detail about construction Typical Hazards in Construction Industry Competitive environment Tendering system Multi-parties involvement e.g.Client, architects, quantity surveyors prevention why Compare with other indusry , it is more danger so safety measurement of constrction must improve basic safety practices an effective construction safety program Site Safety Inspections Hazard-identification inspections should be conducted on a regularly scheduled basis and should include participation by all site contractors. Regular inspections provide the opportunity for prompt feedback to individuals who might be working unsafely. Imminent hazardous conditions must be corrected immediately or work suspended until they are corrected. Injury/damage Reports and Investigation provides the basis for avoiding a recurrence. Information extracted from the analysis of incidents should be shared at toolbox safety talks. Examples All injuries and major equipment / property damage must be reported and investigated immediately. what is the reason?

Transcript: Construction Safety Group Topic2 E Arellano, Jeanrilou V. Ayuban, Charys Jade D. Linsag, Edyl Kim B. Topic Outline Introduction to Construction Safety The Importance of Safety on Construction Sites > Objectives 10 Simple Construction Site Safety Rules References Construction Site Safety Introduction Construction site safety is an aspect of construction-related activities concerned with protecting construction site workers and others from death, injury, disease or other health-related risks. The leading causes of construction site fatalities are falls, electrocutions, crush injuries, and caught-between injuries. Construction Site Construction sites are dynamic activities where workers engage in many activities that may expose them to a variety of safety hazards, such as falling objects, working from rooftops or scaffolding, exposure to heavy construction equipment, or the use of temporary electrical circuits while operating electrical equipment and machinery in damp locations. Construction activities at Princeton University comprise a wide range of activities including construction of new buildings, renovation of existing facilities, and major repair or alterations of building systems. Through implementation of safe work practices, training, and compliance with federal, state, and local regulatory requirements, the Workplace Safety program aims to identify, control, or eliminate construction-related hazards. Safety is a vital part of finishing your project on or under budget. Downtime is costly, as is finding replacement workers when someone cannot do their job after an accident. Worker’s compensation claims and lawsuits can drive up your insurance costs. Focusing on safety helps keep your costs low. The Importance of Safety on Construction Sites Objectives •Safety on Construction Sites Protects the Public •Safety Reduces Work-Related Accidents •Decrease Time and Money Lost After an Accident •Increase Compliance with a Dedication to Safety 10 Simple Construction Site Safety Rules Construction sites are dangerous places to work. Follow these 10 simple construction site safety rules to keep yourself, and others, safe. From wearing your PPE, to following procedures, you can help make your site a safer place to work, and prevent accidents. When you enter the site, make sure you have the PPE you need. 1. Wear your PPE at all times Each site has its unique hazards and work operations. No two sites are exactly the same. Make sure you know what is happening so that you can work safely. 2. Do not start work without an induction Construction work is messy. Slips and trips might not seem like a major problem compared to other high-risk work happening on the site, but don't be fooled. 3. Keep a tidy site Actions speak louder than words. Especially on construction sites where one wrong move could put you in harm's way. Set a good example, think safe and act safely on site. 4. Do not put yourself or others at risk Follow construction safety signs and procedures. 5. Follow safety signs and procedures Make sure your work area is safe. Know what is happening around you. 6. Never work in unsafe areas If you notice a problem, don’t ignore it, report it to your supervisor immediately. 7. Report defects and near misses If somethings not working, or doesn't look right, follow rule number 7 and report it. Don't try and force something, or alter something, if you're trained to or supposed to. 8. Never tamper with equipment One tool does not fit all. Using the correct tool for the job will get it done quicker, and most importantly, safer. 9. Use the right equipment If you need help or further information speak to your supervisor 10. If in doubt, ask References https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_site_safety https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ny-engineers.com/blog/the-importance-of-safety-on-construction-sites%3fhs_amp=true https://www.haspod.com/blog/construction/10-simple-construction-site-safety-rules

Transcript: Construction Mr. Ernstes CONSTRUCTION Safety Lab General Safety For the Lab/Job site General Safety # 1 rule for job site safety is USE COMMON sense. If something feels dangerous it probably is. Ask the instructor for assistance. If you see something, say something, usually operators simply forgot or don't know Safety Glasses Safety Glasses When should you wear safety glasses? You should wear safety glasses anytime you are in a room that has the potential for tools/equipment to be in use. Also if you are outdoors in the general vicinity of tools being used. You should NOT take safety glasses off just because someone has stopped using equipment. Clothing Clothing Safety When working in the lab you should not wear... Rings Long sleeves Watches Bracelets or anything else on your hands/wrist/forearm area Open toed shoes should not be worn in the lab Long hair should be put up or tucked in and extra caution taken while operating equipment Baggy clothes also need to be tucked in while operating equipment Behavior Laboratory Behavior What kind of behavior is tolerated in the Lab? Horseplay, rough housing, wrestling, or any other form of hands on play is NEVER allowed in the lab. Proper Safety zones should always be maintained around equipment, to minimize operator distraction You are responsible to maintain a safe work environment, if you see a broken machine or hazard please immediately contact the instructor. Do NOT wait for someone else to do it. General Equipment Safety Equipment Safety Blade Safety Be Cautious with Blades When cutting keep a safe distance from blades, fingers should be no closer than 2-3 inches. If a cut requires closer contact then use a push stick. Do not use damaged or dull blades, inspect blades before for each use. Guards Guards Proper working guards should be used and maintained at all times. Machines with adjustable guards, band saw, should be set to approximately 1/4 of an inch above the workpiece. Machine usage Machine usage How do you properly use a machine? Always use the correct tool for the job. The person operating the equipment should always be the one to turn it on and off. A machine should NEVER be left running. While operating equipment students should never look away and should avoid all distractions. Emergency Situations Emergency Situation Avoidance Avoiding Emergency Situations How to avoid Emergency Situations Follow all safety rules Be confident and know what you're doing Do NOT distract others Avoid any potential distractions Response Responding to an emergency What should you do if there is an emergency situation If an injury occurs STAY CALM and inform the instructor Move back and listen for orders from the instructor Do not attempt to clean up any blood or bodily fluids Please report all injuries to the instructor no matter how minor it seems
