This is a gift of 4 marks as you can provide a very easy list of health effects. However, it is
important to be very specific.
A reduction in the heart rate; persistent shivering together with blue fingers and lips.
The provision and wearing of thermal clothing such as undergarments, insulated suits
or jackets, gloves and footwear.
Placing a restriction on the time spent working in the cold store with the provision of
regular breaks in a warm environment.
Ensuring that that there is no possibility of workers being locked in the store such as
the provision of means for opening doors on the inside of the store.
The provision of facilities for drying thermal clothing and for its replacement when
necessary.
Giving instruction and training to workers on the hazards involved in working in the
cold store and the precautionary measures that they should take.
The chemical plant produces toxic level in the area that needs immediate
action of survey and execute directive plan of awareness and risk
management to the employee working in the chemical plant.
The improper used of Chemical fumes extraction and the height of the
chimneys must be check and corrective measures must be discussed to
the management. Poor communication of risk assestment and other
observation must be discussed during the tool box meetings, and quality
assurance auditing and monitoring.
Safety features and signed symbols in the workplace must be seen and
visualize so that every employees in the workplace may know the area if
there is contamination, quarantine and safe areas for evacuation plans if
there is leak in the chemical plant.
It is necessary always to prepare the Permits to Work in Confined space and other
permits when working in confine space as prescribe to the safety manual.
Fall from height or fall into open hole of sewage drain pit The person entering into
confine space with 10-30 meter deep has possible chances of fall considering the
condition of it (lacking of preventive measures such as the PPE required.
Slip and Trip risk associated while performing inspection and when ascending or
descending into the ladder and slippery surface arises. And without proper ladder
required for the confine space the occurrence of slip and trip will be encountered.
Pinch PointThe risk involved when working in a confined space of the 10 meters deep,
there is possibility of pinch point if the area is not properly lighted and when personnel
are performing manual handling (i.e. opening of sewage drainage cover, repairing the
drainage ) and other work related.
Back injury & FallImproper handling of equipment have risk associated when
performing manual lifting activity that includes the ergonomics standard activity which
does not comply on proper steps and guidelines. The person who experience Fall and
back injury must be given immediate First Aide.. And must properly evacuated at once in
the area and must be given Emergency care and trauma medical administration once it
arrives in the hospital.
Lack of Oxygen - One of the risks associated when working in confine space considering
the presence of other toxic gases is the oxygen level of content which can be deficient or
enrich. Oxygen deficient is possibly due to the existing toxic gases in the atmosphere
while oxygen enrichment is due to more amount of oxygen supply in ventilation process.
The medical term asphyxiation or lack of oxygen as we go deeper. Due to the chemical
vapors and rapid oxidation in confined space if it is not properly check will seriously
destroy the circulatory system of the workers. So, it is important to wear gas meter
when working in a confined space in deeper areas.
