Course Period 1 Day
Start Time 09:00; Finish Time 18:00
Exam There is a 1hoursClose book exam on the final day (pass mark 70%)
Command word & Definition
Command words are important to note while writing the examination.
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.
• Firstly, What is the command word?
•Furthermore, What do I need to say to gain marks?
•Finally, 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 IGC1 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

Silica
Silica dust, 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.
Evaluation testing
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
TOOL BOX TALKS
TBT Two-Wheel Hand Trucks
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Gloves that increase ability to grip cases.
Footwear with protective toe and mid sole.
BEST PRACTICES
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.

Rolling ladders and stairways are found in many warehouses, retail outlets and storage
facilities. Drivers of trucks also use rolling ladders in fire stations and truck stops to clean
windshields and service the tops of their trucks. Rolling ladders are made of lightweight
tubular steel that is welded to large steps, usually made of expanded steel treads. Rolling
ladders vary in height from short, two-step models to tall, twelve foot models. Review
these safety tips:
BACKGROUND
Each year , accidents involving ladders cause an estimated 300 deaths and 130,000 injuries
requiring emergency medical attention.
LADDER ACCIDENTS
Ladder accidents usually are caused by improper selection, care or use, not by manufacturing defects.
Some of the more common hazards involving ladders, such as instability, electrical shock, and falls,
can be predicted and prevented. Prevention requires proper planning, correct ladder
selection, good work procedures and adequate ladder maintenance.
Click to watch a video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCNiNmP2l2I
LADDER SAFETY BASICS
Survey the area for overhead power lines before
setting up and climbing ladders.
Inspect ladders before climbing.
Never use a damaged or unsafe ladder.
Verify ladder capacity before climbing.
Don’t use them for anything other than the job
they’re intended to do.
Never stand on the top two steps of a stepladder,
and don’t use a step ladder as a straight ladder.
Raise extension ladders 3 feet (3 or 4 rungs) over the
landing area.
Tie off / secure extension ladders to prevent tip over
or kick out.
ROLLING LADDER SAFETY
Keep rolling ladders in good mechanical condition.
Rolling ladders that are stored outside should be protected from rain, snow and ice.
Rolling ladders that are stored outside should be inspected regularly for rust and corrosion.
Inspect rolling ladders before use.
Rolling ladders that have been damaged or “sprung” must be removed from service.
Rolling ladders that have missing rubber “feet” should have them replaced.
Rolling ladders should be climbed facing the ladder – not facing outward.
Climb rolling ladders using 3-point contact – do not carry loads that are too bulky or heavy.
Do not over reach – could cause ladder to tip.
Do not stand on the hand rails.
Do not move an occupied ladder.
Never stand with one foot on the ladder and the other on an object such as shelving.
Do not set up rolling ladders in areas where doors could swing open into the ladder.
Avoid setting up rolling ladders in direct proximity to forklift or vehicle traffic.
Do not tamper with or modify ladders.
Remove tools, equipment or boxes before moving a rolling ladder.
Use the step brake / lock if equipped.
Consider tying off / securing the rolling ladder if tipping is a concern.
