Coming Home after a Flood, Returning Home After Flood.
Going back home after a flood can be dangerous if precautions are not been taken
Coming Home after a Flood, The floodwaters are receding in Kerala as the week-long heavy rains are waning. Yet, for those planning to return home, it is advisable to ensure that there won’t be another round of deluge soon. Some tips are:
- Don’t be alone when you return home. Take with you a couple of people, who can be of (mutual) help when there is a sudden emergency…
- Never take children with you; the accompanists should be adults…
- Don’t return to home at night. Go when it’s daytime, so that you can see everything around
- Must expect reptiles inside the house and outside…
- There can perhaps be a cooking-gas leak from the kitchen. So never use light fire — be it to use a candle or smoke a cigarette
- Those having concrete fence around their house should take care while opening the gate. Everything is soaked in water, and hence even cement structures can collapse.
- Take care not to slip on the watery earth. Carry with you a towel to be tied around nose and mouth; better if you have a mask. Thick gloves also help.
- Don’t touch with bare hands a dead body — be it of a human being or animal.
- Mark with acrylic or chalk on the wall the level till which water has risen in the house. Such an exercise would be helpful in a study on futuristic studies on the risk of living in riverine belts and low-lying areas. In 1924, when the region last had its flood of similar intensity. No such effort was made, thus leaving several regions of Kerala clueless about liveability in the in the time of a deluge
- Switch of the main electricity board before you enter the house. Also ensure that LPG cylinders are switched off.
- Wooden doors would have bloated in the floods; so it would be tough to pull or push them while trying to open. Don’t apply too much force in one go, because the drenched walls too would not be in the best of shape.
- Be inside house only after opening windows and letting fresh air come in.
- If you sense any kind of unnatural or foul smell, don’t stay inside for long
- Don’t open refrigerators carelessly. The rotten food, especial non-vegetarian, would have produced dangerous gases like methane that can exit with force.
- Make an estimate of the financial loss of every object inside, click their pictures
- Open taps and flushes to see if it is mud water or fresh water coming out
- Whenever there is sunlight, let the windows remain open for fresh air to circulate the inside of the house.
- Gather a definite idea with the rest in the locality on where to dump things that have gone into disuse owing to the flood. The decayed stuff should not just to be casually thrown somewhere.
Cleaning up and repairing:
-
Get help
-
Disinfection protection.
Once floodwaters have receded, carefully clean and disinfect each wet item to protect your home and family from sewage or chemical contaminants. Be certain to wear protective clothing, including rubber gloves and boots, during cleanup activities.
-
Floods and food.
Any items that have come in contact with floodwater should be thrown out. This includes bottled water, canned goods, plastic utensils, baby bottles, and more. When in doubt, throw it out!
-
Scammers and con artists.
Hire only professional, reputable contractors for cleanup and repair needs. Avoid the “drive-by” contractor.
-
Safe drainage.
Should your basement become flooded, drain it gradually – about 1/3 per day – to prevent structurally damage and collapse that may result from rapid water removal.
-
Insurance claims.
Contact your insurance agents to discuss flash flood recovery claims.
-
Need help?
Stay tuned to your TV or radio during flash flood recovery for information on assistance available in your area through government or other organizations.

TYPES OF PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) TO GUARANTEE YOUR SAFETY
As an employer, you are in charge of a safe and healthy working environment for your employees. You are familiar with the safety risks within your sector, as well as the measures you can take to counteract these risks.
WHAT IS PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)?
PPE means personal protective equipment or equipment you use to guarantee your (own) safety.
Use PPE always and anywhere where necessary. Observe the instructions for use, maintain them well and check regularly if they still offer sufficient protection. But when do you use what type of protection?
These 7 tips will help you on your way.
1. SAFETY FOR THE HEAD
Wearing a helmet offers protection and can prevent head injuries. Select a sturdy helmet that is adapted to the working conditions. These days you can find many elegant designs and you can choose extra options such as an adjustable interior harness and comfortable sweatbands.
2. PROTECT YOUR EYES
The eyes are the most complex and fragile parts of our body. Each day, more than 600 people worldwide sustain eye injuries during their work. Thanks to a good pair of safety glasses, these injuries could be prevented. Do you come into contact with bright light or infrared radiation? Then welding goggles or a shield offer the ideal protection!
3. HEARING PROTECTION
Are you working in an environment with high sound levels? In that case it is very important to consider hearing protection. Earplugs are very comfortable, but earmuffs are convenient on the work floor as you can quickly put these on or take them off.
4. MAINTAIN A GOOD RESPIRATION
Wearing a mask at work is no luxury, definitely not when coming into contact with hazardous materials. 15% of the employees within the EU inhale vapours, smoke, powder or dusk while performing their job. Dust masks offer protection against fine dust and other dangerous particles. If the materials are truly toxic, use a full-face mask. This adheres tightly to the face, to protect the nose and mouth against harmful pollution.
5. PROTECT YOUR HANDS WITH THE RIGHT GLOVES
Hands and fingers are often injured, so it is vital to protect them properly. Depending on the sector you work in, you can choose from gloves for different applications (Protection):
- protection against vibrations
- against cuts by sharp materials
- from cold or heat
- bacteriological risks
- splashes from diluted chemicals.
6. PROTECTION FOR THE FEET
Even your feet need solid protection. Safety shoes (type Sb, S1, S2 or S3) and boots (type S4 or S5) are the ideal solution to protect the feet against heavy weights. An antiskid sole is useful when working in a damp environment, definitely if you know that 16,2% of all industrial accidents are caused by tripping or sliding. On slippery surfaces, such as snow and ice, shoe claws are recommended. Special socks can provide extra comfort.
7. WEAR THE CORRECT WORK CLOTHING
Preventing accidents is crucial in a crowded workshop. That is why a good visibility at work is a must: a high-visibility jacket and pants made of a strong fabric can help prevent accidents. Just like the hand protection, there are versions for different applications.
WORST-CASE SCENARIO
Prevention is better than cure. A smart thing is to be prepared for the worst. A classic first-aid kit is no luxury but a first-aid kit for the eyes can also be an essential first aid. If the employee comes into contact with chemicals, a safety shower is mandatory, so that he can rinse the substances off his body at any moment.
PREVENTING ACCIDENTS: PICTOGRAMS
Not only is preparing your workshop for accidents a smart thing to do, it is even smarter to organise your workshop in such a way that no serious accidents can take place. A simple way to make your workshop safer is to use pictograms: indicating flammable materials, the necessary use of hearing protection, indicating emergency exits …
You can find all pictograms in the ‘Labels & decals’ catalogue

Guidance On NEBOSH Command Words
There are many things to consider while attempting the NEBOSH, but the main thing that the student should follow is the commands words by NEBOSH. These are the most important to achieve the NEBOSH IGC in the first attempt. Most of the students don’t follow the rules and some of them don’t know about that so the reason they get failed. These are the following commands words.
-
Identify
To give reference to an item, which could be its name or title.
NB: normally a word or phrase will be sufficient, provided the reference is clear.
For Example:
- Identify FOUR hazards associated with excavations? (4)
Sufficient answers would include:
Collapse of the sides
Water Ingress
Falling Material
Undergrounds Services
-
Give
To provide short, factual answers. To offer for consideration, acceptance, or use of another.
NB: normally a single word, phrase or sentence will be sufficient. Give an example of; Give the meaning of.
For Example:
- Identify FOUR types of safety sign AND Give an example in EACH case. (4)
Sufficient answers would include:
Prohibition signs – eg No smoking
Warning signs – eg Caution hot surface
Mandatory signs – eg Wear ear protection
Emergency or safe condition signs – eg first-aid box
-
Outline
To indicate the principal features or different parts of.
NB: an exhaustive description is not required. What is sought is a brief summary of the major aspects of whatever is stated in the question
To gain the marks for the outline example questions below, the same breadth of the answer is required as for an identify answer, but now, additional information will be required to satisfy the depth of an outline.
For Example:
- Outline FOUR hazards associated with excavations? (4)
Sufficient answers would include:
Collapse of the sides – Unsupported trench or incorrect angle of the sides.
Water ingress –Through heavy rain or burst water main.
Falling materials –Spoil dug from excavation or materials and tools stored at ground level could fall in.
Underground services –Contact or rupturing of electricity, gas or water utilities.
-
Describe
To give a detailed written account of the distinctive features of a subject. The account should be factual, without any attempt to explain.
When describing a subject (or object) a test of sufficient detail would be that another person would be able to visualize what you are describing.
For Example:
- Describe the mechanical hazards associated with a bench grinder. (8)
A sufficient answer would be:
An entanglement hazard would be associated with the rotating spindle that the abrasive wheel is mounted on. Drawing in and trapping is associated with the gap between the tool rest and the rotating abrasive wheel. Friction or abrasion hazards would be associated with the surface of the rotating abrasive wheel and stabbing or puncture hazards could be created by flying fragments or pieces of ejected broken wheel.
-
Explain
To provide an understanding. To make an idea or relationship clear.
NB: this command word is testing the candidate’s ability to know or understand why or how something happens. Is often associated with the words ‘how’ or ‘why’.
For Example:
- Explain how sensitive protective equipment (trip device) can reduce the risk of contact with moving parts of machinery. (8)
A sufficient answer would be:
Sensitive protective equipment is designed to identify the presence of a person or body part within the danger zone of machinery. Examples of such devices include pressure mats and light beams that are connected to the machine controls and would stop the machine rapidly should a person or body part be detected.
Responding to command words in questions
It is important to read the whole question and to understand what the question requires as the command word on its own will need to be reinforced by the remainder of the question.
Many candidates miss out on gaining marks because they do not read the question carefully enough and do not think about their answer thoroughly before writing it down.
Candidates need to think about each question.
- What is the command word?
- What do I need to say to gain marks?
- What is or is not relevant to the question?
In many cases a brief answer plan is an essential aid to ensuring that answers are well thought out and structured.
NEBOSH applies a ‘positive marking’ approach; that is, marks are awarded for correct material in candidates’ answers, rather than being deducted for incorrect or missing material.
Remeber:
Guidance on NEBOSH Commands Words are very important to pass the NEBOSH in first attempt.

What are the risks from electricity?
Harm can be caused to any person when they are exposed to ‘live parts’ that are either touched directly or indirectly by means of some conducting object or material. Voltages over 50 volts AC or 120 volts DC are considered hazardous.
Electricity can kill. Each year about 1000 accidents at work involving electric shocks or burns are reported to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). Around 30 of these are fatal, most of them arising from contact with overhead or underground power cables.
Shocks from faulty equipment can cause severe and permanent injury and can also lead to indirect injuries, due to falls from ladders, scaffolds, or other work platforms.
Faulty electrical appliances can also lead to fires. As well as causing injuries and loss of life, fires cause damage to plant, equipment and property.
WHO IS MOST AT RISK FROM ELECTRICITY?
Anyone can be exposed to the dangers of electricity while at work and everyone should be made aware of the dangers.
Those most at risk include maintenance staff, those working with electrical plant, equipment and machinery, and people working in harsh environments such as construction sites.
Most electrical accidents occur because individuals:
- are working on or near equipment which is thought to be dead but which is, in fact, live
- are working on or near equipment which is known to be live, but where those involved are without adequate training or appropriate equipment, or they have not taken adequate precautions
- misuse equipment or use electrical equipment which they know to be faulty.
ASSESSING THE RISKS FROM ELECTRICITY
Consider the following hazards in your risk assessment:
Live parts Normal mains voltage, 230 volts AC, can kill. Also, contact with live parts can cause shocks and burns.
Fire Electrical faults can cause fires. This is particularly true where the equipment contains a heat source (e.g. heaters, including water heaters, washing machines, ovens, heat-seal packaging equipment).
Flammable or explosive atmospheres Electricity can be a source of ignition in a potentially flammable or explosive atmosphere, e.g. in spray paint booths or around refuelling areas.
Where and how electricity is used The risks from electricity are greatest in harsh conditions.
In wet conditions, unsuitable equipment can easily become live and can make its surroundings live.
While outdoors, equipment may not only become wet but may be at greater risk of damage.
In cramped with a lot of earthed metalwork, such as inside tanks, ducts and silos, if an electrical fault develops it can be very difficult to avoid a shock.
Types of equipment in use Some items of equipment can also involve greater risk than others. Extension leads are particularly liable to damage to their plugs and sockets, cables, and electrical connections. Other flexible leads, particularly those connected to equipment that is moved a great deal, can suffer from similar problems.
BASIC ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Below are some minimum steps you should take to ensure electrical safety.
Mains supplies
- install new electrical systems to BS 7671 Requirements for Electrical Installations
- maintain all electrical installations in good working order
- provide enough socket-outlets for equipment in use
- avoid overloading socket-outlets – using adaptors can cause fires
- provide an accessible and clearly identified switch (‘Emergency Off’ or ‘EMO’ button) near fixed machinery to cut off power in an emergency
- for portable equipment, connect to nearby socket-outlets so that it can be easily disconnected in an emergency.
Use the right equipment
- choose electrical equipment that is suitable for its working environment
- ensure that equipment is safe when supplied and maintain it in a safe condition
- electrical equipment used in flammable/explosive atmospheres should be designed not to produce sparks. Seek specialist advice when choosing this type of equipment.
- protect light bulbs and other easily damaged equipment – there is a risk of electric shock if they are broken.
Maintenance and repairs
- ensure equipment is fitted with the correctly rated fuse.
- ensure cable ends always have their outer sheaths firmly clamped to stop wires working loose from plugs or inside equipment
- replace damaged sections of cable completely – never repair cuts with insulating tape.
- use proper connectors to join lengths of cable – don’t use connector blocks covered in insulating tape or ‘splice’ wires by twisting them together
- some equipment is double insulated. These are often marked with a ‘double-square’ symbol. The supply leads have only two wires – live (brown) and neutral (blue)
- make sure all wires are connected securely if the 13A plug is not a moulded-on type.
GOOD PRACTICES:
Use other forms of power where possible Electrical risks can sometimes be eliminated by using air, hydraulic or hand-powered tools. These are especially useful in harsh conditions, but remember they could introduce other hazards.
Reduce the voltage Using lower voltages can reduce or eliminate the risks of electric shocks and burns:
- portable tools are available which can be run from a 110 volts, centre-tapped-to-earth supply, (usually from a transformer)
- where electrically powered tools are used, battery-operated are safest
- temporary lighting can be run at lower voltages, e.g. 12, 25, 50 or 110 volts.
Use Residual Current Devices (RCDs) for extra safety An RCD can provide additional safety. An RCD detects some (but not all) faults in the electrical system and rapidly switches off the supply.
The best place for an RCD is built into the main supply or the socket-outlet, as this means that the supply cables are permanently protected.
If this is not possible, use a plug incorporating an RCD or a plug-in RCD adaptor. RCDs for protecting people have a rated tripping current (sensitivity) of not more than 30 milliamps (mA).
Remember:
- an RCD is a valuable safety device – never bypass it
- if the RCD trips, it is a sign there is a fault. Check the system before using it again.
- if the RCD trips frequently and no fault can be found in the system, consult the manufacturer of the RCD
- use the RCD test button regularly to check that its mechanism is free and functioning

WHAT IS IT?
Accident investigation is the process of determining the root causes of accidents, on-the-job injuries, property damage, and close calls in order to prevent them from occurring again.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
Accident investigation will lead you to the real cause of why something happened, and armed with that knowledge, you can take affirmative steps to prevent future accidents from occurring.
WHAT IS REQUIRED?
- Develop an accident investigation process that focuses on:
o fact finding, not fault finding
o determining the root causes of why the event occurred
o making changes so the event does not happen again.
- Set a policy that accidents and close calls (large and small) will be investigated with equal vigor.
- Provide training and tools to staff conducting accident investigations.
- Audit completed investigations to ensure they are being completed on a timely basis with an adequate level of detail.
HOW DO YOU DO IT?
Workplace accidents should be investigated as soon as possible after they occur. The goals of a timely and thorough accident investigation should be to:
- determine the cause of the accident
- prevent the accident from happening again
- improve health and safety conditions in the workplace
- determine whether a violation of federal or state safety and health standards contributed to the accident
- determine company or individual liability in case of future legal action
- determine the need for repairs or replacement of damaged items
- determine the need for additional education and training for employees.
A thorough and complete accident investigation involves several steps, specifically:
- background investigation
- site investigation
- interviews
- analysis and reporting.
The following outline discusses these steps in more detail.
Background investigation
- Review the employment and injury records of any injured employee(s) and/or others whose actions contributed to the accident.
- Review reports of any injuries and/or damage to equipment, machines, building, or property.
- Compile a list of witnesses to the accident.
- Gather information about normal conditions and/or operations of the area. Information would include maps, floor plans, wiring diagrams, and any other piping or architectural drawings or operational guidelines.
- Meet with supervisors and other employees responsible for the affected area and employees of the affected area to outline the purpose and goals of the investigation. Ensure that there is a basic understanding of the materials, equipment, operation, or process involved.
Site investigation
- Arrive at the scene of the accident as soon as possible after the incident has occurred.
- Restrict the accident scene to authorized persons during the site investigation.
- Ensure that movable evidence is secured to prevent tampering or other changes.
- Determine what physical changes may have occurred following the accident. Changes could be attributed to clean-up, weather, maintenance, and normal usage.
- Tour the entire area and record pertinent initial perceptions of the status and condition of building, grounds, equipment, lighting, and ventilation.
- Sketch or draw parts of the accident scene where equipment or machinery involved in the accident is located or where actions that contributed to the accident occurred. Use the following guidelines when sketching or drawing an accident scene:
o Use squared (graph) paper. If distance or size is important determine the value for each square and note this at the bottom of each sketch.
o Orient each sketch with an arrow pointing north.
o Label all objects.
o Use arrows to indicate paths of travel of individuals and/or vehicles.
o Indicate the distance of movable objects from two fixed locations.
o Note the location of witnesses present at the time of the accident.
- Take photographs of the overall scene, damaged areas, and pertinent machinery and/or equipment. Photographs should be made before any adjustments occur to the scene of the accident.
o Prior to taking photographs, determine if the area has been altered. If items have been moved or changed, do not move them back for photographs. Photograph items as found, yet document the change and the individual responsible or knowledgeable of the change.
o For close-ups, use reference items such as a ruler or level measurer to indicate size or slope of the items photographed. For each close-up, photograph the same item from a distance to provide a reference. Photograph the area where the injured worker(s) were found, using reference marks to indicate individuals’ placement.
Interviews
- Prepare a list of witnesses and other individuals to be interviewed.
- When possible, do not allow more than 24 hours to elapse before conducting interviews.
- Conduct interviews in a private setting to avoid interruptions and distractions.
- Prepare a list of questions in advance of any interview. Use questions that require narrative answers. Avoid questions that suggest an expected answer (Example: “Isn’t it true that the injured employee was running?”) or that can be answered with either “yes” or “no.” Questions should be structured from the following six key elements: Who? What? Where? When? How? Why?
o Who questions identify all parties involved.
o What questions identify pertinent actions, events, and physical objects.
o Where questions locate participants, witnesses, and key objects involved in the accident.
o When questions determine the time of the accident and establish relationships between pairs of activities or events.
o How questions provide information on the interaction and relationships among participants, equipment, and the events leading up to, during, and after the accident.
o Why questions determine unsafe acts or hazardous conditions.
- Before starting the interview, advise the person to be interviewed that the purpose of the session is to determine the cause of the accident and to prevent any future occurrence.
- Start the interview by asking the individual to describe what happened. Do not interrupt with questions.
- After the individual has given his or her initial statement, ask the prepared questions and any additional questions prompted by the individual’s statement.
- Record the individual’s statement, the questions asked, and the answers received in the order that they occur. Let the individual talk, but not ramble. Interrupt when necessary to turn the conversation back to the subject at hand.
- Close the interview when all questions have been answered and when the individual indicates no additional information can be provided. Encourage the individual to contact you if other pertinent information comes to mind. Immediately after the interview, review the individual’s statement and answers and record your impressions and judgments.
Analysis and reporting
After all fact-finding efforts are complete, analyze the data to determine all causes of the accident. Then prepare a comprehensive report outlining the identified causes and describing corrective measures to prevent similar future accidents. To best understand why an accident occurred and to plan for preventive actions, it is important to realize that most accidents have more than one cause. It is important to realize that an accident may be the result of the interaction of seemingly unrelated events.
Causes
The cause of an accident is any behavior, condition, act, or omission without which the accident may not have happened, or the severity of the injuries would have been less. Causes can be characterized as direct, indirect, or contributing.
- Direct causes are acts or omissions that directly relate to the accident. These could include workers or other individuals who:
o operate equipment in an unsafe manner or operate equipment known to have safety defects or deficiencies
o do not follow required or necessary safety precautions or procedures
o fail to correct known damage to or faulty operations of equipment, machinery, or vehicles.
- Indirect causes are conditions that directly contribute to the occurrence of a direct cause. These causes could include:
o defective or unusual conditions of equipment, machinery, vehicles, buildings, or grounds
o defective or unusual conditions of workers or other individuals, such as intoxication, physical defects or limitations, or psychological defects or limitations
o hazardous or unusual conditions of weather.
- Contributing causes are conditions, programs, acts, or omissions that are not directly related to the accident but did contribute to the occurrence or existence of a direct or indirect cause. These causes could include lack of or inadequate:
o safety program
o training programs
o preventive maintenance programs
o corrective maintenance programs
o supervision
o enforcement
o design of equipment, machinery, vehicles, or facilities
o advisory or warning communication, labels, or signs.
Analysis
- Collect and correlate data. The following are examples of materials that can be used to ascertain all causes related to the accident. These materials should be collected and organized to allow investigators to review all information at one time:
o summary of employment and injury records of pertinent employees
o summary of orientation and training records for pertinent employees
o summary of normal conditions and/or operation of the pertinent area
o description of usual and safe operations or use of materials, equipment, facilities, operations, or processes involved
o summary of inspections of materials, equipment, and facilities involved
o summary of witness statements that includes an outline of areas of agreement and disagreement between statements
o summary of pertinent records of preventive maintenance or repair
o written company policies or directives that pertain to the materials, equipment, facilities, operations, or processes involved.
- Review data and pose hypothetical causes. The investigator should review all pertinent data. After the initial review, the investigator should outline potential direct, indirect, and contributing causes. It is important that all potential causes be listed and that the investigator not draw preliminary conclusions as to the probability that a potential cause was or was not related to the incident. It may be helpful to have a second individual conduct an independent review of the pertinent data to list all of the potential causes.
- Test potential causes. Review again the pertinent data looking for specific data that affirm or reject each potential cause. Connect related direct, indirect, and contributing causes.
Reporting
A written report should be generated that contains the following sections:
- Statement of the problem. This section should include:
o a review of the incident
o a summary of injuries, lost time, and equipment and/or property damage.
- Review of the data. This section should include:
o a summary of witness statements
o a summary of relevant findings concerning the accident and work history of affected employees and the operation of machinery or equipment
o a storyboard with photographs or sketches
o an overview of existing, written company policies or directives.
- Causes. This section should list the direct, indirect, and contributing causes that have been affirmed by the data. A reference should be made to the data that support each cause.
- Recommendations. These should be based directly on each of the noted causes. These recommendations could include the following:
o more or improved training for employees
o new company policies or directives, or better clarification or dissemination of existing ones
o improved communication between employees, supervisors, and management
o design or operation changes or improvements to machines, equipment, or processes
o different or improved safety equipment
o different or improved protection from natural phenomena or disasters
o different or improved systems to account for possible physical, physiological, or psychological limitations of employees, customers, or others.

Marking of report
Report – Introduction and Executive Summary
Report – Main findings of the inspection
Report – Conclusions and Recommendations
Command word & Definition
Identify – To give reference to an item, which could be its name or title.
NB: normally a word or phrase will be sufficient, provided the reference is clear.
Give – To provide short, factual answers.
NB: normally a single word, phrase or sentence will be sufficient.
Outline – To indicate the principal features or different parts of.
NB: an exhaustive description is not required. What is sought is a brief summary of the major aspects of whatever is stated in the question.
Describe – To give a detailed written account of the distinctive features of a subject. The account should be factual, without any attempt to explain.
When describing a subject (or object) a test of sufficient detail would be that another person would be able to visualize what you are describing.
Explain – To provide an understanding. To make an idea or relationship clear.
NB: this command word is testing the candidate’s ability to know or understand why or how something happens. Is often associated with the words ‘how’ or ‘why’.
Responding to command words in questions
It is important to read the whole question and to understand what the question requires as the command word on its own will need to be reinforced by the remainder of the question.
Many candidates miss out on gaining marks because they do not read the question carefully enough and do not think about their answer thoroughly before writing it down.
Candidates need to think about each question.
• What is the command word?
• What do I need to say to gain marks?
• What is or is not relevant to the question?
In many cases a brief answer plan is an essential aid to ensuring that answers are well thought out and structured.
NEBOSH applies a ‘positive marking’ approach; that is, marks are awarded for correct material in candidates’ answers, rather than being deducted for incorrect or missing material.
In order to give further direction as to the detail of information required by the command word in a question, examples are given below both for general knowledge and for the NGC1 syllabus.
Identify
Applying identify to a non-syllabus related common subject:
Q1. Identify FOUR kitchen appliances.
Q2. Identify FOUR types of bicycle.
Sufficient answers would include:
A1. Toaster
Electric kettle
Microwave cooker
Dishwasher
A2. Mountain bike
Racing bike
Penny-farthing
Tandem
Note that giving only one or two word answers provides a clear reference and therefore is sufficient to satisfy an identify question.
Applying identify to syllabus subjects:
Sufficient answers would include:
Identify FOUR hazards associated with excavations.
Collapse of the sides
Water ingress
Falling materials
Underground services
Identify FOUR mechanical hazards associated with machinery.
Entanglement
Drawing in and trapping
Friction or abrasion
Stabbing or puncture
Identify FOUR types of safety sign.
Prohibition signs
Warning signs
Mandatory signs
Emergency or safe condition signs
Again, answers are limited to a brief phrase or in some cases just two words but do give clear reference.
Outline
To gain the marks for the outline example questions below, the same breadth of answer is required as for an identify answer, but now, additional information will be required to satisfy the depth of an outline.
Applying outline to the same non-syllabus subjects:
Sufficient answers would include:
Outline FOUR kitchen appliances.
Toaster
• Accommodates slices of bread, ejects as toast when ready.
Electric kettle
• 1 to 2 litre capacity, boils water. Can be cordless.
Microwave cooker
Heats food rapidly using short wavelength radio waves.
Dishwasher
• Dirty tableware placed in baskets. Mixture of high pressure water and detergent automatically cleans.
Outline FOUR types of bicycle.
Mountain bike
• Robust bicycle with deep tread tyres, suspension and several gear choices.
Racing bike
• Lightweight frame with drop handlebars and maybe fixed gearing.
Penny-farthing
• Vintage device with very large front wheel and small rear wheel.
Tandem
• Bicycle designed for two people with two seats and two sets of pedals.
Applying outline to the same syllabus subjects:
Sufficient answers would include:
Outline FOUR hazards associated with excavations.
Collapse of the sides
• Unsupported trench or incorrect angle of the sides.
Water ingress
• Through heavy rain or burst water main.
Falling materials
• Spoil dug from excavation or materials and tools stored at ground level could fall in.
Underground services
• Contact or rupturing of electricity, gas or water utilities.
Outline FOUR mechanical hazards associated with machinery.
Entanglement
• On rotating parts.
Drawing in and trapping
• Between counter rotation rollers, or pulley belts and wheels.
Friction or abrasion
• Contact with fast moving surfaces.
Stabbing or puncture
• From ejected objects or flying objects.
Outline FOUR types of safety sign.
Prohibition signs
• Circular with red border, red diagonal bar and black symbol.
Warning signs
Triangular, yellow background, black border and symbol.
Mandatory signs
• Circular, blue background, white border and white symbol.
Emergency or safe condition signs
• Rectangular, green background, white border and white symbol.
Again, the identify answer (shown in bold) gives the breadth required and the additional information given in the bullet point satisfies the required depth for an outline.
Describe
Applying describe to the non-syllabus subjects:
Sufficient answers would be:
Describe a microwave cooker.
An oblong box shaped object, approximately 30cm tall, 30cm deep and 60cm long. There is a single hinged door at the front, typically see through. The door opens outwards and inside there is a space to place a plate or dish and a microwave transmitter is located above. Outside, on the front there will be normally two controls to set the power and cooking time.
Describe a penny-farthing bicycle.
A manually propelled vintage bicycle consisting of a very large wheel at the front and a much smaller wheel at the back. The wheels are connected by a frame that supports a seat above the front wheel and handlebars to steer. Pedals are connected directly to the centre of the front wheel.
Applying describe to a syllabus subject:
Describe the mechanical hazards associated with abench grinder.
An entanglement hazard would be associated with the rotating spindle that the abrasive wheel is mounted on. Drawing in and trapping is associated with the gap between the tool rest and the rotating abrasive wheel. Friction or abrasion hazards would be associated with the surface of the rotating abrasive wheel and stabbing or puncture hazards could be created by flying fragments or pieces of ejected broken wheel.
In all of the describe answers above, no attempt is made to explain how a microwave cooker heats food, why the front wheel of a penny-farthing is so much larger than the rear wheel or how a person could be injured using an abrasive wheel.
Explain
Applying explain to a non-syllabus subject:
Sufficient answers would include:
Explain how a microwave cooker heats up food.
The frequency of microwaves used in a microwave cooker is sufficient to cause water molecules in food to vibrate. Vibrating molecules hit other water molecules and put them into the same vibration and therefore this vibration of molecules is converted into heat.
Explain why there is a very large front wheel on a penny-farthing.
By having a large front wheel, the peripheral (rim speed) of the wheel is much faster than the rotation of the pedals at the centre. This results in faster forward speed per pedal rotation. Also a larger wheel is more suitable for riding on cobbled streets or rough ground.
Applying explain to a syllabus subject:
Explain how sensitive protective equipment (trip device) can reduce the risk of contact with moving parts of machinery.
Sensitive protective equipment is designed to identify the presence of a person or body part within the danger zone of machinery. Examples of such devices include pressure mats and light beams that are connected to the machine controls and would stop the machine rapidly should a person or body part be detected.
Give
Applying give to a non-syllabus subject:
Identify FOUR European cities AND give an example of a tourist attraction in EACH.
London – eg Buckingham Palace
Paris – eg Eiffel Tower
Pisa – eg Leaning Tower
Rome – eg Colosseum
Applying give to a syllabus subject:
Identify FOUR types of safety sign AND give an examplein EACH case.
Prohibition signs – eg No smoking
Warning signs – eg Caution hot surface
Mandatory signs – eg Wear ear protection
Emergency or safe condition signs – eg first-aid box

What is workplace violence?
Workplace violence is violence or the threat of violence against workers.
It can occur at or outside the workplace and can range from threats and verbal abuse to physical assaults and homicide, one of the leading causes of job-related deaths. However it manifests itself, workplace violence is a growing concern for employers and employees nationwide.
Who is vulnerable?
2 million workers are victims of workplace violence each year. Workplace violence can strike anywhere, and no one is immune. Some workers, however, are at increased risk. Among them are workers who exchange money with the public; deliver passengers, goods, or services; or work alone or in small groups, during late night or early morning hours, in high-crime areas, or in community settings and homes where they have extensive contact with the public.
This group includes health-care and social service workers such as visiting nurses, psychiatric evaluators, and probation officers; community workers such as gas and water utility employees, phone and cable TV installers, and letter carriers; retail workers; and taxi drivers.
What can these employers do to help protect these employees?
The best protection employers can offer is to establish a zero-tolerance policy toward workplace violence against or by their employees. The employer should establish a workplace violence prevention program or incorporate the information into an existing accident prevention program, employee handbook, or manual of standard operating procedures. It is critical to ensure that all employees know the policy and understand that all claims of workplace violence will be investigated and remedied promptly.
In addition, employers can offer additional protections such as the following:
Provide safety education for employees so they know what conduct is not acceptable,what to do if they witness or are subjected to workplace violence, and how to protect themselves.
Secure the workplace. Where appropriate to the business, install video surveillance, extra lighting, and alarm systems and minimize access by outsiders through identification badges, electronic keys, and guards.
Provide drop safes to limit the amount of cash on hand. Keep a minimal amount of cash in registers during evenings and latenight hours.
Equip field staff with cellular phones and hand-held alarms or noise devices, and require them to prepare a daily work plan and keep a contact person informed of their location throughout the day. Keep employer provided vehicles properly maintained.
Instruct employees not to enter any location where they feel unsafe. Introduce a “buddy system” or provide an escort service or police assistance in potentially dangerous situations or at night.
Develop policies and procedures covering visits by home health-care providers. Address the conduct of home visits, the presence of others in the home during visits, and the worker’s right to refuse to provide services in a clearly hazardous situation.
How can the employees protect themselves?
Nothing can guarantee that an employee will not become a victim of workplace violence. These steps, however, can help reduce the odds:
Learn how to recognize, avoid, or diffuse potentially violent situations by attending personal safety training programs.
Alert supervisors to any concerns about safety or security and report all incidents immediately in writing.
Avoid traveling alone into unfamiliar locations or situations whenever possible.
Carry only minimal money and required identification into community settings.
What should employers do following an incident of workplace violence?
Encourage employees to report and log all incidents and threats of workplace violence.
Provide prompt medical evaluation and treatment after the incident.
Report violent incidents to the local police promptly.
Inform victims of their legal right to prosecute perpetrators.
Discuss the circumstances of the incident with staff members. Encourage employees to share information about ways to avoid similar situations in the future.
Offer stress debriefing sessions and post traumatic counseling services to help workers recover from a violent incident.
Investigate all violent incidents and threats, monitor trends in violent incidents by type or circumstance, and institute corrective actions.
Discuss changes in the program during regular employee meetings.

Silica
Silica, often referred to as quartz, is a very common mineral. It is found in many materials common on construction sites, including soil, sand, concrete, masonry, rock, granite, and landscaping materials.
The dust created by cutting, grinding, drilling or otherwise disturbing these materials can contain crystalline silica particles.
These dust particles are very small. You cannot see them. This reparable silica dust causes lung disease and lung cancer. It only takes a very small amount of airborne silica dust to create a health hazard.
HAZARDS OF SILICA DUST
Crystalline silica is a common mineral in the earth’s crust, and is found in many types of rock including sand, quartz, and granite. Silica is present in both work and non-work environments, and exposure to crystalline silica dust has long been known to cause a disease called silicosis. When you inhale crystalline silica the lung tissue reacts by developing fibrous tissue around trapped silica particles. This condition of the lung is called silicosis.
Due to the extensive use of concrete and masonry products in buildings today, construction workers have a potential exposure to crystalline silica. Operations such as dumping of rock, jack hammering, abrasive blasting, sawing, drilling or demolition of concrete and masonry structures are some of the activities that could produce this exposure.
Silica sand or other substances containing more than 1% crystalline silica should never be used as abrasive blasting materials. Where silica exceeds 1% of the content, less hazardous materials should be substituted. In addition, always follow safe work practices when there is possible exposure to silica dust.
What are the symptoms of silicosis?
Silicosis is classified into three types: chronic/classic, accelerated, and acute. Chronic/classic silicosis, the most common, occurs after 15–20 years of moderate to low exposures to repairable crystalline silica.
Symptoms associated with chronic silicosis may or may not be obvious; therefore, workers need to have a chest x-ray to determine if there is lung damage. As the disease progresses, the worker may experience shortness of breath upon exercising and have clinical signs of poor oxygen/carbon dioxide exchange. In the later stages, the worker may experience fatigue, extreme shortness of breath, chest pain, or respiratory failure. Accelerated silicosis can occur after 5–10 years of high exposures to reparable crystalline silica. Symptoms include severe shortness of breath, weakness, and weight loss. The onset of symptoms takes longer than in acute silicosis.
Acute silicosis occurs after a few months or as long as 2 years following exposures to extremely high concentrations of repairable crystalline silica. Symptoms of acute silicosis include severe disabling shortness of breath, weakness, and weight loss, which often leads to death.
Where are general industry employees exposed to crystalline silica dust?
The most severe exposures to crystalline silica result from abrasive blasting, which is done to clean and smooth irregularities from molds, jewelry, and foundry castings, finish tombstones, etch or frost glass, or remove paint, oils, rust, or dirt form objects needing to be repainted or treated. Other exposures to silica dust occur in cement and brick manufacturing, asphalt pavement manufacturing, china and ceramic manufacturing and the tool and die, steel and foundry industries.
Crystalline silica is used in manufacturing, household abrasives, adhesives, paints, soaps, and glass. Additionally, crystalline silica exposures occur in the maintenance, repair and replacement of refractory brick furnace linings. In the maritime industry, shipyard employees are exposed to silica primarily in abrasive blasting operations to remove paint and clean and prepare steel hulls, bulkheads, decks, and tanks for paints and coatings.
What can employers/employees do to protect against exposures to crystalline silica?
■ Replace crystalline silica materials with safer substitutes, whenever possible.
■ Provide engineering or administrative controls, where feasible, such as local exhaust ventilation, and blasting cabinets. Where necessary to reduce exposures below the PEL, use protective equipment or other protective measures.
■ Use all available work practices to control dust exposures, such as water sprays.
■ Wear only a N95 NIOSH certified respirator, if respirator protection is required. Do not alter the respirator. Do not wear a tight-fitting respirator with a beard or mustache that prevents a good seal between the respirator and the face.
■ Wear only a Type CE abrasive-blast supplied-air respirator for abrasive blasting.
■ Wear disposable or washable work clothes and shower if facilities are available. Vacuum the dust from your clothes or change into clean clothing before leaving the work site.
■ Participate in training, exposure monitoring, and health screening and surveillance programs to monitor any adverse health effects caused by crystalline silica exposures.
■ Be aware of the operations and job tasks creating crystalline silica exposures in your workplace environment and know how to protect yourself.
■ Be aware of the health hazards related to exposures to crystalline silica. Smoking adds to the lung damage caused by silica exposures.
■ Do not eat, drink, smoke, or apply cosmetics in areas where crystalline silica dust is present. Wash your hands and face outside of dusty areas before performing any of these activities.
■ Remember: If it’s silica, it’s not just dust.

Safety Glasses Work
Eye injuries are 100 percent preventable.
Your eyes are very delicate, made of thin tissues that can’t take much damage. You can’t blink fast enough to prevent an injury. Significant surgeries are required when serious damage occurs. Shavings, grindings and other particles can fly at high velocities into the eye.
1. Safety glasses are a barrier between your eyes and flying objects.
2. If there is ANY CHANCE of a flying object, wear protective eyewear.
3. Use ANSI-approved safety glasses.
4. Wear eye protection when grinding, buffing, cutting, sawing, chipping and using chemicals.
5. Bad eye injuries will require significant surgery, and at least some loss of vision will most likely result.

Atmospheric Testing in Confined Space
Atmospheric testing is required for two distinct purposes: evaluation of the hazards of the permit space and verification that acceptable conditions exist for entry into that space.
A confined space is one that is large enough to enter and perform assigned work in; it has limited or restricted ways to enter or exit the space; and it was not designed to be occupied continuously by a worker.
The atmosphere within a confined space must be tested using equipment that is designed to detect the chemicals that may be present at levels that are well below the defined exposure limits. Evaluation testing is done to:
• determine what chemical hazards are or may become present in the space’s atmosphere, and
• identify what steps must be followed and what conditions must be met to ensure that atmospheric conditions are safe for a worker to enter the space.
The testing results and the decisions about what steps must be followed before entry must be evaluated by, or reviewed by, a technically qualified professional
The technically qualified professional must consider all of the serious hazards in his/her evaluation or review.
A permit space is a confined space that has one or more of the following features: it has or may contain a hazardous atmosphere; it contains a material that can engulf a person who enters; it has an inside design that could trap or asphyxiate a person who enters (inwardly converging walls, or a floor that slopes downward to a smaller section); or it has any other serious safety or health hazards.
Verification Testing
Before a permit space that may have a hazardous atmosphere can be entered, the atmosphere must be tested using the steps identified on the permit (developed during evaluation testing).
Verification testing is done to make sure that the chemical hazards that may be present are below the levels necessary for safe entry, and that they meet the conditions identified on the permit. Test the atmosphere in the following order: (1) for oxygen, (2) for combustible gases, and then (3) for toxic gases and vapors.2 The testing results — the actual test concentrations — must be recorded on the permit near the levels identified for safe entry.
Duration of Testing
For each test required on the permit, you must allow enough time for the air from the space to be drawn into the equipment and for the sensor (or other detection device) to react to the chemical if it is present. This is considered the “minimum response time” and it will be noted by the manufacturer in the operator’s manual.
Be aware that you will need to add time to this “minimum response time” if you have attached hosing or a probe extension to the inlet. The additional time is needed to allow the air from the different depths of the space to be pulled into the equipment inlet.
Testing Conditions in Spaces that May Have Layered Atmospheres
For permit spaces that are deep or have areas leading away from the entry point, the atmosphere may be layered or may be different in remote areas. For these spaces, testing must be done in the area surrounding the worker, which is considered four (4) feet in the direction of travel and to each side. If a sample probe is used to do the testing,then the worker must move slowly enough so that testing is completed, keeping the equipment “response time” in mind, before he/she moves into the new area.
Retesting the Space During Entry or Before Re-Entry
Test the permit space routinely to make sure that the atmospheric conditions continue to be safe for entry.

TBT – TWO WHEEL HAND TRUCK
Two-Wheel Hand Trucks
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Gloves that increase ability to grip cases.
Footwear with protective toe and mid sole.
For large quantity loads provide a four-wheel platform-style cart or a two-wheel hand truck that converts to a four-wheel platform-style truck.
This will minimize bending the torso.
Use a two-wheel truck with an adjustable toe plate – adjust the toe plate to approximately knee height to minimize torso bending.
INCLINES
When pushing up an incline the employee frequently has to lower the angle of the load togenerate enough force to push the load up the slope.
Lowering the load angle increases the amount of weight the employee must lift. In addition to providing force in a horizontal direction, the employee must now provide force in a vertical direction.
This places additional stress on the shoulders, back and legs.
Provide a fold down third wheel on the back of the hand truck so the load can be self supporting.
This ensures that the employee must only provide force in a horizontal direction.
CURBS AND STAIRS
Employees who deliver to locations without docks must pull fully loaded hand trucks over uneven walking surfaces, up and over curbs and up stairways.
Provide and use curb ramps.
Curb ramps allow for easy movement over uneven walking surfaces eliminating the need to lift and pull fully loaded hand trucks.
Use trucks that have several doors on the side so loads can be accessed by means other than the back door.
A short ramp from a side door could eliminate pulling the hand cart up steps and curbs.
MAINTENANCE
A poorly maintained hand truck will greatly increase physical stress on an employee.
When hand truck tires are under or unevenly pressurized, the employee’s arms, back, and legs must provide more force to move the hand truck.
Keep balloon tires in good repair and properly inflated.
Check tire pressure on a quarterly basis or more often if needed.
Make available to the employees a pressure gauge, air compressor, and pressure hose.
Hard rubber tires do not have the air pressure problems associated with balloon tires.
However, hard rubber tires do not move very well over rough terrain.
