2. HOUSE KEEPING
Good housekeeping means having no unnecessary items about and keeping all necessary items in their proper places.

3. Important of housekeeping
- It keeps the companies environment clean
It helps keep the exit way free flowing
Through housekeeping hazardous substance / obstacles
will be discovered and taken away.
eliminate clutter which is a common cause of accidents,
such as slips, trips, and falls, fires and explosions. etc

4. Signs of poor housekeeping
cluttered and poorly arranged work areas;
untidy or dangerous storage of materials
dusty, dirty floors and work surfaces;
items that are in excess or no longer needed;
blocked or cluttered aisles and exits;
tools and equipment left in work areas instead
of being returned to roper storage places;
broken containers and damaged materials;

5. Signs of poor housekeeping (cont)
blocked or cluttered aisles and exits;
tools and equipment left in work areas instead
of being returned to roper storage places;
broken containers and damaged materials;
overflowing waste bins and containers;
spills and leaks.

6. Finally! Whether your workplace in an office, plant, store, warehouse, etc take this recommended housekeeping practices, seriously
Keep work areas clean (use the waste bin ).
Keep aisles clear.
Keep exits and entrances clear.
Keep floors clean, dry and in good condition.
Vacuum or wet sweep dusty areas frequently.
Quickly Cleanup spilled liquids

7. WELLCOME TO SAFETY SYSTEMS WE’ER ALMOST THERE! LOL

8. THE EMMERGENCY RESPONDS / RESCUE SYSTEM

9. EMMERGENCY
Emergency – Is a Sudden, unexpected, or impending situation that may cause injury, loss of life, damage to  properties, and/or interference with the normal activities which, therefore, requires immediate attention and remedial action.

10. EMMERGENCY RESPONDS The team you need in emergency preparation:
Medical personnel
Fire-fighting personnel
Security personnel
Safety personnel
Specialists from different fields
NOTE: different teams could be onboard but there should be
A just one leader who gives the last command.
- This leader should be know by everybody.

12. WORKING AT HIGHT SYSTEM AND CHECK LIST

13. What is working at height?
Work at height means work in any place where, if precautions were not taken, a person could fall down and injure themselves.
If you do any of the following then you will be working at height, because you can fall from one level to another.
Work above ground level.
Could fall from an edge, through an opening or fragile surface.
Could fall from ground level into an opening in a floor or hole in the ground.

14. Examples of working at height
Using working platforms such as scaffolds, tower.
Scaffolds, cherry pickers, scissor lifts and podium steps.
Work on a roof, piece of plant or equipment.
Using ladders or stepladders.

15. What precautions do you need to take?
Remember, work at height may be a one off, or routine.
You need more than a head for heights!
We need to protect ourselves and others (including the public from).
You will need to make sure you identify all tasks, which require work at height, so you can make sure they are carried out safely.
The key to preventing injury from work at height is to carry out a risk assessment, so you can choose the right precautions.

16. Can you avoid the need to work at height in the first place?
Long-handled tools or other equipment can sometimes be used to safely carry out a task from ground level, e.g. a longhandled brush or roller for painting and water-fed poles with brushes for window cleaning.
Think about whether it is possible to design out the need to work at height, e.g. could new or replacement services, such as pipes or cables, be put at ground level?
If you can’t avoid the need to work at height, you must try to make sure the risk of a fall is prevented.

17. Plans to minimise the impact of a fall with measures
Airbags, and safety nets are examples of such measures,
this measures minimise the risk of sever injury if someone falls.

18. Working safe with the right equipments
Fall arrest equipments like the safety harness can further prevent a user from falling when used properly.

19. Very important information
Installing guard rails is an extremely effective fall prevention system. When installing a guard rail it can be temporary or permanent but the following must be adhered to – rails must be able to support 200lbs, stand inches high, include a mid-rail, and be inspected in regularly scheduled intervals.
Sometimes guard rails cannot be installed and when this is the case, safety-nets and debris-nets are common.
Safety nets can be designed to catch falling workers
Debris nets can be designed to catch falling tools.
They should be inspected at least every week and after a human or tool falls.

20. Very important information
Tools and other debris should be removed immediately from nets.
Sometimes, guard rails and nets are not enough and the serious danger of falling still occurs. In these cases a “personal fall arrest system” should be used. They are comprised of a full body harness, a connecting device and an anchor point.
Body harnesses distribute weight evenly over the shoulders, buttocks and thighs.

21. What other additional measures do you need to take to reduce the risk of a fall?
When using any equipment for work at height,
you also need to make sure:
The people using it are trained to use it safely.
It is regularly inspected and well maintained.
The work is supervised to check people are working safely.
The normal use of ladders or step ladders does not provide measures which either prevent falls or minimise the consequences. So you must be able to show that it was not reasonable to select alternative equipment because the task is low risk and short duration.

22. Have you identified whether there are any Fragile surfaces?
You need to be particularly aware of fragile materials when working at height as their presence in, or near the working area, increases the risk. A fragile surface is one, which would be liable to break if a person worked on it or fell onto it.
Common examples include, fibre and asbestos cement roof sheets and many skylights, but could also include bridged materials in silos.
You should make sure you:
Avoid the need to work on or near or pass across them by, e.g. repairing a skylight from underneath using a tower scaffold or from above using a cherry picker;

23. Have you identified whether there are any Fragile surfaces?
Prevent a fall by using fixed walkways with guard rails to get across a fragile asbestos cement roof or use suitable working platforms with guard rails during work on or near a fragile surface;
Minimise the consequences of a fall by using nets, airbags or fall arrest.

24. Finally in a nutshell !
When working off the ground in any capacity you need the right mindset.
Always think about safety and the safest way to accomplish the task at hand.
Never work above the ground if you are overly tired.
Even working under emotional stress should be avoided.
You need your reflexes and mind to be at 100% when working above the ground.

25. Finally in a nutshell !
We have mandated training for anyone who works off the ground.
Personal protective equipment is a big part of fall prevention and knowing when and how to use the equipment is critical.
