4. Lesson 1: Occupational health & safety Policies and Procedures Occupational Health and Safety  or  OHS  is concerned with health, safety, and welfare issues in the workplace. Policies and procedures are important in discussing OHS because it aims to make the workplace  safer and better  for workers and stakeholders. 

5. Occupational Health & Safety (OHS) Occupational Health and Safety (OHS)  is a set of policies and procedures that is followed in a workplace in order to  prevent accidents, illnesses, and injuries .  Following OHS policies and procedures is important when dealing with electronics since it would protect not only the personnel dealing with the components, but also the unit itself.

10. Hazard Identification Hazards are anything that can hurt a person. Example of hazards that can be encountered when conducting computer systems servicing are: Tangled electrical cords Unsecured or unevenly stacked boxes Noise Hazard identification involves observing the workplace’s surroundings to recognize potential risks.

15. RISK assessment Assessing the risk is evaluating how a hazard would harm a person. While hazards are what can harm the person, risk is the possibility of the hazard harming someone. Two questions can be asked to assess a risk: How likely will the hazard harm me or someone else? How damaging will the risk be?

16. Risk Control Once the hazard has been identified and its risks have been evaluated, it is time to address these issues: Ask your supervisor for instruction and training before using or repairing an equipment. Do not carry or move heavy objects by yourself.

17. Lesson 2: Hand Tools and Equipment Electrostatic Discharge Tools Hand tools Cleaning Tools Diagnostic Tools

18. Electrostatic Discharge Tools Electrostatic Discharge Tools When working with electronic equipment, it is important to make sure that there is not static electricity to avoid damage of computer parts. Static Electricity can be easily generated by friction on carpets, clothing, hair, fabric, flooring, etc. Anti-static wrist wrap Anti Static Mat

19. Electrostatic Discharge Tools (Cont.) Anti-static wrist wrap Worn to prevent ESD damage to computer hardware

20. Electrostatic Discharge Tools (Cont.) Anti Static Mat Used to stand on or place tools to prevent buildup of static electricity.

34. CLEANING TOOLS (CONT.) Lint-free cloth – for cleaning computer parts without leaving marks or scratches.

35. CLEANING TOOLS (CONT.) Compressed Air – for clearing or blowing away dust from computer parts.

36. CLEANING TOOLS (CONT.) CABLE TIES - used to organize and bundle cable together

37. CLEANING TOOLS (CONT.) PARTS ORGANIZER – for holding and organizing screws and other small computer parts.

38. DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS Digital Multi-tester Loopback Adapter Toner Probe

39. DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS (Cont.) DIGITAL MULTIMETER – A tool that can be used to measure amps, volts, and ohms. It can test the integrity of circuits and the quality of electricity in computer components. Information is flashed on the screen.

40. DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS (Cont.) Loopback Adapter – Also called as the loopback plug. This tool tests the basic functionality of computer ports. The adapter is specific to the port that you want to test.

41. DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS (Cont.) Toner Probe – A two-part that generates a tone that travels the length of the cable. The toner part is attached to a cable at one end using specific adapters, such as RJ-45, coaxial, or metal clips. When the probe is near to the cable where the toner is attached, a tone can be heard from the speaker.
