Why manage Health & Safety ?
ILO Facts:
According to International Labor Organization
Around the World millions of men and women work in poor
and hazardous conditions
More than 160 million workers fall ill each year due to
workplace hazards
Small enterprises account for over 90% of enterprises
where conditions are often very poor and the workers in
them are often excluded from all labor protection.

Why manage Health & Safety ?
Three Good Reasons:
There are clear, pressing reasons why businesses should effectively
manage health and safety
1. Costs (Financial Loss)
2. Humanitarian and Moral reasons
3. To Avoid Prosecution
Health & Safety Management
Reason 1: Costs (Financial)
The true cost of accidents is a lot higher than most people realise.
Cost of failure is not easy to calculate, but includes:
 Medical Treatment
 Accident investigation,
 Replacement labour,
 Loss of reputation,
 Compensation,
 Increased Insurance premium
Studies have shown that the true cost of accidents were as
much as 37% of the annual profit in one organisation
Health & Safety Management
Reason 2: Humanitarian and Moral reasons
Our lives depends on what
we do at work. As a
human being We all
(Employers / Employees)
have moral obligation not
to cause harm to others.
Employers have the moral
obligation towards their
employees and others.
Health & Safety Management
Reason 3: To avoid prosecution
Employers & Employees showing negligence towards
health and safety regulations resulting in accidents
may serve a severe penalties or/and imprisonment.
Supervisor jailed after crane collapses on workers
by Amy Glass on Sunday, 06 July 2008
CRANE KILLINGS:A Doha court has jailed a construction site
supervisor for two years after a crane collapsed, killing four men and
injured three others, Qatar daily Gulf Times reported on Sunday.
The supervisor, from Syria, and his employer were also fined 20,000 Qatari
riyals ($5,499) each for the accident which killed three Filipino men and
one Indian man.
The accident occurred on March 19, 2007, when a crane being operated
for the first time tilted and fell upon the workers at a construction site near
the West Bay, Doha.
The supervisor, his employer and insurance firm were jointly ordered to
pay 150,000 Qatari riyals as ‘blood money’ to families of three of the
victims, the newspaper said.
Supervisors
(Contractors,
Subcontractors) can be
held criminally liable for
serious injury or death of
an employee if they have
been negligent in their
duties.

Definitions:
• Incident: An unplanned and undesired work related event in which
harm occurred or could have occurred.
o Accident: An accident is an incident, which has given rise to injury,
ill health or fatality.
o Nearmiss / Near-hit / Dangerous Occurrence: an incident where
no harms occurred
• LTA (Lost Time Accidents): a work related injury causing disablement
extending 48 hrs beyond the day or shift on which the accident
occurred.
Or simply, More than 3 days (including the day of accident)
disablement due to work Injury.
Health & Safety Management
Accident Causation Theory
As per Henrich
• 88% of the accident are caused by unsafe act and
10% by unsafe condition.
• For every accident resulting in an injury, there are
many other similar accidents that causes no injuries.

So, how the major accidents can be prevented at sites…?
98% of accidents could be prevented by correcting the unsafe act and unsafe condition.
This proves that there are sample of opportunities for preventing accidents.

SEQUANCE OF ACCIDENT OCCURANCE
The basic theory of accident occurrence -
1. An accident occurs due to an unsafe act or unsafe
condition or both.
2. Unsafe acts and unsafe conditions exist because of
human faults.
3. Faults of human are inherited due to
 Lack of knowledge and skill
 Lack of supervision
 Improper mechanical and physical
environment
Whenever an accident occurs there is always a
chain of events that occur in a logical and fixed
order

2. ORGANISING To make an effective health and safety policy an organisation needs to
get staff involved and committed. This is often referred to as a 'positive
health and safety culture'.
4 Cs for Positive Health & Safety Culture:
Competence: recruitment, training , Qualification,
Experience, Knowledge.
Commitments & Control: allocating responsibilities,
securing commitment, instruction and supervision.
Co-operation: internally between individuals, groups,
departments including consultation with health and safety
representatives and externally between clients, suppliers,
contractors etc.
Communication: spoken, written and visible.
Health & Safety Management
HSG 65 Health & Safety Management System
Engineer / Foremen Responsibilities in the context of a Generic HSE Plan:
1. Understanding the compliance of this safety plan and following the same in the day-to-
day activities.
2. Giving daily safety instructions to the workmen as a part of each job instructions,
highlighting the possible hazards and the necessary precautions to be taken.
3. Complying HSE Officer/Engineer’s recommendations given in his daily observation report
4. Maintaining work area neat and clean, with specific attention working at heights
keeping free from loose materials.
5. Taking an active part in the site safety meetings, when required.
6. Preventing horseplay of workmen.
7. Organizing “toolbox” talks to the workmen on a weekly basis and maintaining records
8. Identifying and eliminating all unsafe conditions in the work area by carrying out safety
inspections in the work area on a daily basis.
9. Sending the workmen employed by them on the first day itself to the HSE
Officer/Engineer for giving safety induction.
10.Maintaining all accident preventative measures in place and reporting any accidents /
incidents as required.

3. PLANNING & IMPLEMENTATION
Planning is the key to ensuring that your health and safety efforts really work.
Planning for health and safety involves
1. Setting objectives,
2. Identifying hazards,
3. Assessing risks,
4. Safety procedures for hazardous operation
5. Implementing standards of performance and
6. Developing a positive culture.
It is often useful to record plans in writing.
Every AMANA projects are maintaining a project specific HSE Plan. We must
refer it to improve our HSE culture.

HSG 65 Health & Safety Management System
4. MEASURING PERFORMANCE
Measurement is essential to maintain and improve health and safety performance.
Two ways of measuring performance are
Workplace inspections
Environmental monitoring
Safety tours
Progress monitoring of objectives
Performance reviews
Review of training assessments
Management system audits
Health surveillance
Active / Proactive Monitoring:
Active monitoring is a way of looking at things before
things go wrong / Accidents
Health & Safety Management
HSG 65 Health & Safety Management System
4. MEASURING PERFORMANCE
Reactive Monitoring: after something goes wrong;
Reactive monitoring measures failure (accidents, incidents, damage
to property, unsafe conditions)
Accident investigation
Accident incident rates
Ill health incident rates
Accident frequency rates
Accident severity rates
Sickness absence
Property or product damage
Incidents / near misses
Health & Safety Management
HSG 65 Health & Safety Management System
5. REVIEWING PERFORMANCE
Internal and external audits complement
monitoring activities by determining whether the
health and safety policy, organisation and
systems are actually achieving the required
reliability and effectiveness.
An audit is not intended to identify all of the
hazards, it is intended as an evaluation of health
and safety management systems.

Hierarchy of Control
Health & Safety Management
Risk assessment is the process of identifying
and evaluating a hazard to determine the
level of action required to reduce a risk to
an acceptable level.
Risk Assessment
It is nothing more than a careful
examination of workplace Hazard, so that
we can evaluate whether the we have
taken enough precautions or are required
to take additional precautions, to prevent
harm occurring.
Uncontrolled Hazard
Risk / Harm
Controlled Hazards
Health & Safety Management
Hazard: Something with the potential to cause harm such as
 A source – working at height,
 A substance –handling of chemicals,
 A part of a machine – circular saw blade,
 A method of work – lifting method,
 A form of energy, or a situation – overburden on the edge of excavation
Risk Assessment
Health & Safety Management
 Risk is expressed as: Likelihood of
Occurrence × Severity of Hazard = Risk
 And the results are expressed in term of
quantity such as high risk, medium risk
and low risk.
Risk:
Risk Assessment
Harm:
Includes death, injury, physical or mental ill health,
damage to property or the environment, loss of
production or any combination of these
A measure of the likelihood that the
harm from a particular hazard will
occur, taking into account the
possible severity of the harm.
Health & Safety Management
FIVE steps to RISK ASSESSMENT
1. Look for the Hazards
2. Decide who might be harmed and in what circumstances
3. Evaluate the risks, and the adequacy of existing controls
4. Record the significant findings
5. Review the assessment
1. Look for the Hazards
- Hazard type – Physical, Chemical, Biological, agronomical
- Hazard Sources – Materials, Equipments, Environment, People
- Hazard identification techniques – Workplace inspection,
Manufacturer instruction, MSDS
Health & Safety Management
2. Decide who might be harmed and in what circumstances
 include visitors, public and new workers
3. Evaluate the risks, and the adequacy of existing controls
 Consider the likelihood and severity
 See the adequacy of existing control
 Consider Legal requirements, Generally accepted industry
standards
 Make the risk smaller
4. Record the significant findings
5. Review the assessment
 in case of new machine, substances and procedure introduced
 new legal requirements

occupational illness
5
Fatality Single or multiple fatality per event 6
Value Status Description
6
Certain or
imminent
Constant exposure - Happens regularly on this site
5 Very likely Workers expected to use control measures every time (say PPE)
4 Likely Workers expected to adjust control measures every time
3 May happen
Control measures may break down, e.g. machinery or other
workers not taking required action
2 Unlikely
Multiple control measures where failure of one does not create
harm
1 Very unlikely Control measures unlikely to break down or be easily removed
Likelihood of harm:
Severity is the degree or
extent of injury or harm
caused by the hazards, or
as a result of an accident
Severity of harm:
Likelihood / Probability
of occurrence of an
accident or incident
or ill health
High (17-36)
Review urgently required to determine whether the risk can be removed or reduced, or the controls
improved
Medium (8-16)
Risks not acceptable, hazards and controls need investigation to consider reasonable practicable
improvements
Low (1-7) Acceptable
Risk Rating:
Health & Safety Management
Example – Working at Height
The probability of falling off an edge is more likely the closer you are working to it
Likelihood = X
Severity = Y
Likelihood = X+X
Severity = Y
Likelihood = X+X+X
Severity = Y
SEVERETY - unchanged
Health & Safety Management
Safe system of work
“A safe system of work is a formal procedure (refer – Safety
Plan, Operation control procedures, general procedures)
which results from a systematic examination of the task in
order to identify all the hazards.
It defines safe methods to ensure that hazards are eliminated
or risks minimised.”
Develop a safe system of work
1. Analyse the task
MEEP (Materials, Equipment and Plant, Environment, People)
2. Implement the system
3. Monitor the system
Health & Safety Management
High risk activities including
Excavation
Hot work
Confined space entry
Live working
Hazardous areas
Maintenance operations
Pressurized systems
Permit to work
A PTW, part of safe system of work is a documented control system
requiring written confirmation that certain actions have been carried out
to eliminate or control the risks before a significant high risk activities.

Receiver.
Health & Safety Management
General Hierarchy of Control Measures
The detailed management strategy identified in the principles of
prevention and is used specifically in the RISK ASSESSMENT to
decide the most effective measures in a particular situation.
The H&S measures should be considered in the following order of priority –
a useful memory aide is : ERIC Prevents Death)
Health & Safety Management
Eliminate the Hazards:
Eliminate the task, e.g.;
- Buying a readymade components instead of homemade
Eliminate the hazard, e.g.;
- Using water instead of solvent based paints,
- Using mechanical lifting instead of manual lifting.
Reduce the Risk:
- Using 110 V electrical equipment instead of 240 V,
- Substituting a solvent based adhesive with water based
adhesive.
- Making 2 loads of 25 kg instead of one load of 50kg.

Isolate the hazard and people
Isolate the hazard i.e. by enclosing or containing it. E.g.
- Guarding dangerous part of machine,
- Enclosing noisy part of machine,
Segregate the people i.e. keep the people away from the
hazard e.g.;
- Erecting barriers around excavation,
- Fitting guardrails to scaffolds,

Engineering control i.e. using engineering design to reduce the risks
e.g.
- Local exhaust ventilation to remove contamination,
- Using a RCD.
Changing work pattern or method e.g.; developing job rotation
systems to reduce exposure;
- Using noisy machine for short time only each day;
- Providing exclusion zones to reduce the number of person
exposed to a hazard;

PPE: this is least effective means of controlling hazards
 All other options should be considered first and should be arranged wherever
possible PPE may then be used as a means of protecting from the risks that remain or
as a back up to the measured provided.
 Giving priority to Collective protective measures over individual protective
measures. E.g.;
-local exhaust ventilation systems rather provision of PPE (only)
Discipline: Discipline refers to the discipline of the individual workers to follow the system of
work in place and their training. e.g.;
- Obtain compliance with rules and following procedures.

Health & Safety Management
Information & Instruction:
An effective means to motivate the employees towards safety.
As multilingual, multicultural employees are with us, therefore verities of
communication media should be used to overcome language barriers
and the inability of some employees to read
IITS – Information, Instruction, Training & Supervision
Formal - Safety
committees, audits,
inspections, Risk
assessments,
training etc
Informal - On the job
training, toolbox talks
Written - Minutes of
meetings,
newsletters, memos
Verbal - Instructions,
SSs of W, SOPs
Visual - Posters,
safety signs, hazard
warnings on
machinery, colour
coding
Health & Safety Management
Training:
A best techniques to motivate the employees towards safety for a positive H&S
culture.
General Types of trainings:
1. Safety Induction Training
2. Daily / Weekly Tool Box Talk
3. Job Specific Training
4. 3rd Party Approved Safety Training
Training will give the employee a boost to his confidence while performing the
task.
Appropriate job skill & positive orientation of mind helps to reduce incident
rate.
Legal requirements – to inform significant
workplace hazards and measures
Health & Safety Management
Supervision
Accident trends can be strongly influenced by providing
adequate training and supervision to control the worker and
his environment.
An ideal Supervisor:
1. Follow general Duty of Care
2. Perform as per his Safety Responsibilities
3. Observe hazards in his area
4. Communicate Safety Measures to his
employees
5. Report accidents / incidents
6. Believe – Safety is a team work and it is
everybody responsibility
Health & Safety Management
11 SAFETY PRINCIPLES FOR SUPERVISION
 Plan safety into every job.
 Anticipate the unexpected - Anticipate.
 Identify hazards before an injury occurs.
 Correct unsafe acts or conditions on the spot.
 Discourage unsafe behaviors, Encourage Safe Behaviors!!
 Promote incident reporting in the early stages.
 Ensure employees have the proper tools for the job.
 Ensure employees follow established safety procedures.
 Conduct frequent safety inspections in the field.
 Consult with your safety representative when necessary.
 Give positive reinforcement for safe work.
Health & Safety Management
Safety should be managed like other company function. Management
should direct the safety effort by setting achievable goals, by planning,
organizing and controlling to achieve them.
The key to effective line safety performance is management procedures
that fix accountability.
Basic Principle of Safety
Safety performance must be accurately measured. This measurement
must be proactive.
Safety is line management responsibility. Line managers / supervisors must
be held accountable for their group’ performance.
The organization must do whatever is necessary to ensure safety and
well being of its employee.
Health & Safety Management
CONCLUSION

  • 5. Health & Safety Management Industrial Safety State of freedom from dangers / hazards / risk in an industrial activities.
  • 6. Health & Safety Management Why manage Health & Safety ?
  • 7. Health & Safety Management Why manage Health & Safety ? ILO Facts: According to International Labor Organization Around the World millions of men and women work in poor and hazardous conditions More than 160 million workers fall ill each year due to workplace hazards Small enterprises account for over 90% of enterprises where conditions are often very poor and the workers in them are often excluded from all labor protection.
  • 8. Health & Safety Management Why manage Health & Safety ? Highest accident Rate in Construction industries- Reference – HSE, UK Statistics
  • 9. Health & Safety Management Why manage Health & Safety ? UAE Accident Statistics:
  • 10. Health & Safety Management Why manage Health & Safety ? UAE Accident Statistics: Dubai 7 20 373 616 354 364 These accident records belongs to only 36 Main contractor who are the member of Buildsafeuae. (www.buildsafeuae.com)
  • 11. Health & Safety Management Why manage Health & Safety ? Three Good Reasons: There are clear, pressing reasons why businesses should effectively manage health and safety 1. Costs (Financial Loss) 2. Humanitarian and Moral reasons 3. To Avoid Prosecution
  • 12. Health & Safety Management Reason 1: Costs (Financial) The true cost of accidents is a lot higher than most people realise. Cost of failure is not easy to calculate, but includes:  Medical Treatment  Accident investigation,  Replacement labour,  Loss of reputation,  Compensation,  Increased Insurance premium Studies have shown that the true cost of accidents were as much as 37% of the annual profit in one organisation
  • 13. Health & Safety Management Reason 2: Humanitarian and Moral reasons Our lives depends on what we do at work. As a human being We all (Employers / Employees) have moral obligation not to cause harm to others. Employers have the moral obligation towards their employees and others.
  • 14. Health & Safety Management Reason 3: To avoid prosecution Employers & Employees showing negligence towards health and safety regulations resulting in accidents may serve a severe penalties or/and imprisonment. Supervisor jailed after crane collapses on workers by Amy Glass on Sunday, 06 July 2008 CRANE KILLINGS:A Doha court has jailed a construction site supervisor for two years after a crane collapsed, killing four men and injured three others, Qatar daily Gulf Times reported on Sunday. The supervisor, from Syria, and his employer were also fined 20,000 Qatari riyals ($5,499) each for the accident which killed three Filipino men and one Indian man. The accident occurred on March 19, 2007, when a crane being operated for the first time tilted and fell upon the workers at a construction site near the West Bay, Doha. The supervisor, his employer and insurance firm were jointly ordered to pay 150,000 Qatari riyals as ‘blood money’ to families of three of the victims, the newspaper said.
  • 15. Supervisors (Contractors, Subcontractors) can be held criminally liable for serious injury or death of an employee if they have been negligent in their duties.
  • 16. Health & Safety Management Cost and Consequences of Accident
  • 17. Health & Safety Management Cost and consequences of accident Direct costs: Hospitalization charges Family suffering , Loss of job Lost man days Sick leave pay Indirect costs: Investigation cost Loss of wages Cost of damage to equipments Idle time of equipment and machinery Low productivity due to low morale of workers Improvement costs Cost of low output by new worker Costs for redesigning workplace Replacement of worker / equipment Retraining cost Delay in work / stoppage of work Fines Compensations / blood money cost of reputation of company , morale which ultimately results in poor industrial relations and loss of goodwill in the market. And many more…

  • 19. Health & Safety Management Accident Causation Theory 1 29 300 ACCIDENT ANALYSIS UNSAFE CONDITION 10% UNSAFEACT 88% NATURAL CALAMITIES 2%
  • 20. Health & Safety Management Definitions: • Incident: An unplanned and undesired work related event in which harm occurred or could have occurred. o Accident: An accident is an incident, which has given rise to injury, ill health or fatality. o Nearmiss / Near-hit / Dangerous Occurrence: an incident where no harms occurred • LTA (Lost Time Accidents): a work related injury causing disablement extending 48 hrs beyond the day or shift on which the accident occurred. Or simply, More than 3 days (including the day of accident) disablement due to work Injury.
  • 21. Health & Safety Management Accident Causation Theory As per Henrich • 88% of the accident are caused by unsafe act and 10% by unsafe condition. • For every accident resulting in an injury, there are many other similar accidents that causes no injuries. ACCIDENT ANALYSIS UNSAFE CONDITION 10% UNSAFE ACT 88% NATURAL CALAMITIES 2% • It is estimated by him that in a group of 330 accidents of the same kind involving the same person and similar circumstances,  300 result in no injury,  29 in minor injury and  one in a major/ lost time/fatality. 1 29 300 So, how the major accidents can be prevented at sites…? 98% of accidents could be prevented by correcting the unsafe act and unsafe condition. This proves that there are sample of opportunities for preventing accidents.
  • 22. Health & Safety Management Major causes of accidents in construction 1. Fall from Height 2. Fall of Materials 3. Structure collapse 4. Fire 5. Electrocution 6. Vehicle / machineries related 7. Other reasons Fall from height is the biggest killer in construction industries. 50% of all accidents are caused due fall from height. 50 % 50 %
  • 23. Health & Safety Management Year – unknown, Month May to July. No of Fatality - 10 1. Fall from Height - 6 2. Fall of Materials -2 3. Electrocution -2 UNSAFE ACTIONS AND UNSAFE CONDITIONS ARE THE ONLY REASON BEHIND THESE ACCIDENTS.
  • 24. Health & Safety Management Accident Causes UNSAFE PEOPLE Create UNSAFE CONDITIONS / PLACES Which cause ACCIDENTS And these often result in INJURY OR DAMAGE For every accident there is a preventable cause …. Find & Fix the cause BEFORE the accident
  • 25. Health & Safety Management Any act which deviates from accepted norm or correct procedure or practice, which has a potential to cause accident. UNSAFE ACTION Operating without authority Working on unprotected area Failure to use PPE Use of drug / alcohol Improper lifting Improper loading Failure to warn person Horseplay
  • 26. Health & Safety Management Any physical condition which deviates from accepted norm or practice and has the potential to cause accident. UNSAFE CONDITION Inadequate supports or guards Defective tools, equipment or supplies Inadequate warning system Poor housekeeping Hazardous atmospheric conditions Poor illumination/ventilation Slippery floors Excessive noise …….
  • 27. Health & Safety Management SEQUANCE OF ACCIDENT OCCURANCE The basic theory of accident occurrence - 1. An accident occurs due to an unsafe act or unsafe condition or both. 2. Unsafe acts and unsafe conditions exist because of human faults. 3. Faults of human are inherited due to  Lack of knowledge and skill  Lack of supervision  Improper mechanical and physical environment Whenever an accident occurs there is always a chain of events that occur in a logical and fixed order 3 causes of accident Reason behind Unsafe Action & Unsafe Condition

  • 40. Health & Safety Management Risk assessment is the process of identifying and evaluating a hazard to determine the level of action required to reduce a risk to an acceptable level. Risk Assessment It is nothing more than a careful examination of workplace Hazard, so that we can evaluate whether the we have taken enough precautions or are required to take additional precautions, to prevent harm occurring. Uncontrolled Hazard Risk / Harm Controlled Hazards
  • 41. Health & Safety Management Hazard: Something with the potential to cause harm such as  A source – working at height,  A substance –handling of chemicals,  A part of a machine – circular saw blade,  A method of work – lifting method,  A form of energy, or a situation – overburden on the edge of excavation Risk Assessment
  • 42. Health & Safety Management  Risk is expressed as: Likelihood of Occurrence × Severity of Hazard = Risk  And the results are expressed in term of quantity such as high risk, medium risk and low risk. Risk: Risk Assessment Harm: Includes death, injury, physical or mental ill health, damage to property or the environment, loss of production or any combination of these A measure of the likelihood that the harm from a particular hazard will occur, taking into account the possible severity of the harm.
  • 43. Health & Safety Management FIVE steps to RISK ASSESSMENT 1. Look for the Hazards 2. Decide who might be harmed and in what circumstances 3. Evaluate the risks, and the adequacy of existing controls 4. Record the significant findings 5. Review the assessment 1. Look for the Hazards - Hazard type – Physical, Chemical, Biological, agronomical - Hazard Sources – Materials, Equipments, Environment, People - Hazard identification techniques – Workplace inspection, Manufacturer instruction, MSDS
  • 44. Health & Safety Management 2. Decide who might be harmed and in what circumstances  include visitors, public and new workers 3. Evaluate the risks, and the adequacy of existing controls  Consider the likelihood and severity  See the adequacy of existing control  Consider Legal requirements, Generally accepted industry standards  Make the risk smaller 4. Record the significant findings 5. Review the assessment  in case of new machine, substances and procedure introduced  new legal requirements FIVE steps to RISK ASSESSMENT

  • 54. Health & Safety Management Isolate the hazard and people Isolate the hazard i.e. by enclosing or containing it. E.g. - Guarding dangerous part of machine, - Enclosing noisy part of machine, Segregate the people i.e. keep the people away from the hazard e.g.; - Erecting barriers around excavation, - Fitting guardrails to scaffolds, Safe Place Safe Person Safe Place Safe PersonE R I C Prevents Death
  • 55. Health & Safety Management Control Engineering control i.e. using engineering design to reduce the risks e.g. - Local exhaust ventilation to remove contamination, - Using a RCD. Changing work pattern or method e.g.; developing job rotation systems to reduce exposure; - Using noisy machine for short time only each day; - Providing exclusion zones to reduce the number of person exposed to a hazard; Safe Place Safe Person Safe Place Safe PersonE R I C Prevents Death
  • 56. Health & Safety Management PPE: this is least effective means of controlling hazards  All other options should be considered first and should be arranged wherever possible PPE may then be used as a means of protecting from the risks that remain or as a back up to the measured provided.  Giving priority to Collective protective measures over individual protective measures. E.g.; -local exhaust ventilation systems rather provision of PPE (only) Discipline: Discipline refers to the discipline of the individual workers to follow the system of work in place and their training. e.g.; - Obtain compliance with rules and following procedures.
