Unsafe Acts and Unsafe Conditions . Clint Michael Dulguime Dan Francis Maquinano

Unsafe acts and unsafe conditions are critical aspects of workplace safety. Understanding these concepts is essential for creating a safe and healthy work environment. Unsafe acts refer to behaviors or actions that deviate from standard safety procedures, while unsafe conditions pertain to physical aspects of the workplace that pose a risk to employees. It's important to identify and address these issues to prevent accidents, injuries, or even fatalities.

. ACCIDENT ANALYSIS 88% accident occurs due to Unsafe acts/attitude 10% accident occurs due to unsafe conditions/equipment 2% accident occurs due to natural calamities

Unsafe Acts Unsafe acts encompass actions performed by employees that disregard safety protocols, such as bypassing safety mechanisms or using equipment incorrectly. Unsafe Conditions Unsafe conditions involve physical aspects of the workplace that pose potential risks, such as faulty machinery or inadequate lighting .

Unsafe acts vs Unsafe conditions Oil/coolant on the floor is an Unsafe condition but walking on or near to oily/contaminated surface by worker is an Unsafe acts . Machine rotating part without cover without safety guard is an example of Unsafe condition , and operating of that machine is Unsafe act performed by worker. Working at height is an Unsafe condition , and not wearing PPE’S while working at height is an Unsafe acts .

`Examples of Unsafe Acts in the Workplace 1 Improper Lifting Techniques Employees heavy objects without utilizing proper lifting techniques, leading to back injuries and strains.

2 Failure to Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Workers neglecting to wear PPE, increasing the risk of exposure to hazardous materials or equipment. 3 Ignoring Safety Guidelines Disregarding safety protocols, such as not following lockout/tagout procedures before servicing equipment.

Negligent Machine Operation 4 Operating machinery without proper training, leading to potential accidents. Substance Abuse on the Job 5 Engaging in work under the influence of alcohol or drugs, increasing the likelihood of accidents.

Examples of Unsafe Conditions in the Workplace Inadequate Lighting Poorly lit work areas increasing the risk of accidents, especially in areas with heavy machinery. Cluttered Walkways Clutter and obstructions in walkways posing a tripping hazard for employees. Malfunctioning Equipment Faulty machinery, such as malfunctioning guards and safety switches, constitutes unsafe conditions. Exposed Electrical Wiring Exposed electrical wiring increasing the risk of electric shock and fire hazards. 1 2 3 4

Examples of Unsafe Conditions in the Workplace 5 6 4 Poor Housekeeping(Poor 5’s) Cluttered work areas, unorganized storage, and improper waste disposal contribute to unsafe conditions. Inadequate Ventilation Workspaces with insufficient airflow and ventilation systems pose health risks to employees. Slippery Surfaces Wet or oily floors without proper caution signs and preventive measures.

Unsafe acts and unsafe conditions of electrical Workplace Ensuring safety in the electrical workplace is crucial to prevent accidents and protect the well-being of employees. This involves adhering to specific protocols and guidelines to minimize the risk of electrical hazards. Employees should be equipped with the necessary knowledge and training to identify potential dangers and take appropriate precautions to mitigate risks.

Examples of Common Unsafe Acts in the Electrical Workplace 1 Failure to Lockout/Tagout Neglecting safety procedures when repairing or maintaining electrical systems, leading to potential electrocution. 2 Working on Energized Equipment Carrying out tasks on live electrical components without proper precautions, risking severe injuries. 3 Improper Tool Usage Using damaged or incorrect tools for electrical tasks, increasing the risk of accidents and injuries.

Examples of Common Unsafe Conditions in the Electrical Workplace Overloaded Circuits Inadequate electrical capacity or excessive use of electrical devices on a single circuit, causing overheating and potential fires. Poor Wiring Practices Substandard or damaged electrical wiring, posing a risk of electric shocks, short circuits, and electrical fires. Lack of Ground-Fault Protection Absence or malfunctioning of ground-fault circuit interrupters increases the likelihood of electrical accidents and injuries.

Consequences of Unsafe Acts and Unsafe Conditions Increased Injuries/fatality Higher instances of workplace injuries due to both unsafe acts and unsafe conditions. Financial Impact Costs associated with workers' compensation, legal fees, and productivity loss. Reputation Damage Damage to the company's reputation and employee morale due to workplace accidents.

Strategies for Preventing Unsafe Acts and Unsafe Conditions Employee Training Providing comprehensive safety training to enhance awareness of potential hazards and safe practices . Hazard Assessments Conducting regular assessments to identify and address potential unsafe conditions in the workplace Reporting Mechanisms Establishing clear channels for employees to report unsafe acts and conditions without fear of retaliation .

Conclusion and Key Takeaways 1 Prevention Proactive measures are essential to prevent unsafe acts and unsafe conditions from occurring. 2 Responsibility Shared responsibility among employees and management is crucial for maintaining a safe workplace. 3 Continuous Improvement Striving for continuous improvement in safety protocols and hazard mitigation strategies.
