We made it. Spring is finally here. Despite signs of a change in time, but it is also a reminder that it's time for spring cleaning. But before the dust cleaning materials in and put some outdoor projects, note that the security must go hand in hand with spring cleaning.
see The owners are probably not many similarities between the maintenance and operation of a major construction of houses. But many of the risks to the safety of construction workers for the workspace exist "do it yourself" that weekend warriors hit the Toolbox for each spring.
Hundreds of thousands of people are injured each year just "How to work around the house." Many of these injuries could be prevented if people object, such companies building security dealt approach.
Construction is expected to be a dangerous job, and, in fact, need to schedule workers as they deal with a variety of risks every day. In 2016, as a result, 91 percent of Skanska's construction sites in the US, there were no incidents that resulted in an absent employee time. We want to get the value of 100 percent. The most important point is that, if people can threats be respected face, and take the time to plan work, incidents can be avoided.
Our homes are to be seen as safe places, but there really is no difference in risk between a scale used in a construction site and for your home. As you approach the work at home as well as construction equipment, could be anything that we spend more time cooking on the terrace as recovery from injury. Here are some safety tips for the application site at home:
This is a task that a ladder is required almost certainly. Did you know that the scale is often a last resort option on construction sites for work at height? If a scale is used, the planning is carried out. At home, most people, the ladder grab and go, so it's no surprise that the Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that there are about 165,000 scales annually injuries.
Before ascending to clean gutters piled debris, start on the ground. The scale in a good condition? How is the scale (for example, someone to chat with) stabilize? Note: Skanska not allow extension ladders that are not physically connected to the structure. Where you want to put this scale and level?
Once on the ladder, do not rise above the third rung from the top. Never lean on the side of the stairs. It can get a little more time, down and move the ladder, but it is safer. Certainly not have the idea of setting up its gabled roof and work from above. Construction workers will tell you that it would be right uncomfortable without binding. Trust the professionals. Incidents occur on the scale quickly and often catastrophic. Good planning can eliminate these risks.
Nothing says spring like the smell of freshly cut grass. A lawn mower is probably used the better part of the equipment by the owners to take care of your property and where there is a lawnmower, there is also usually a lawn near.
In a construction site, it requires special equipment like this dress appropriately. Do the same at home? For example, the blade may be closer to the ground closed shoes should be. Meaning something pushed gloves to protect your hands have made a number of risks. The slope of lawn mowers and trimmers scatter stones and dirt in the air at high speed, the workers are demanding to wear long pants and eye protection. The noise would require hearing protection. People work every day to dress appropriately under similar conditions. Why not follow their example? Lawn is not a fashion contest and you do not get many second chances in relation to the violation vision or hearing.
One of the main causes of an incident in one of our construction sites is a period in which use of workers using the wrong tool for a job with or the right tool in the wrong direction. If you have ever tried to hammer a nail with a screwdriver handle, you are to blame for.
Improvisation is not a good solution, if security is the goal. The tools are designed to work very well in order to fulfill a specific task, but abuse can in a variety of styles, cuts, and ... well, lead to the right of Google search and you can find less well.
How many times have you performed a task at home, only to find to work the next day with sore muscles? Risks related to home ergonomics are as important and comparable to what we faced on a construction site. Often the "how" to see part of the movement from point A to point B, the material has been in the planning of the work, because the people who are programmed to tend to just take something, regardless of how we are. We tend to ignore the warning signs of potential injury type strain and push the object in view of the work to be done.
Before each level, determine which materials are moved, and how to move safely. Do you need a partner to help all lifts and transport? Can you use a basket at waist level for easy access to the materials, as compared to bending several times a day? You will work in an uncomfortable position? If so, you are able to organize things to put your body in a natural position? Another good tip is to do some stretching exercises before you start your job. Skanska performs stretching and exercises before each day of each week, bending to go as a way to work, to warm our muscles. It also creates a greater fluidity in public areas so that we are well prepared to use our bodies to this day.
Sometimes, even things that seem simple corrections require turning the water, energy or gas. An example of this replaced an electrical device, the handle offers a better time, and the food, do it before that. This is something that construction crews are also very good, often to take additional steps to ensure that all construction workers know what is live, so that they can plan against them. properly stored detergent, leakage of potentially harmful chemicals can prevent also. On construction sites, usually required by law. In his garden house, but it is equally important.
Two other common construction Mantras help to eliminate injuries at home, also. If the conditions are not right, the intention to stop and rethink the plan. Do not continue, because everything is normal when it is not. if knowledge, to ask for help. If I do not think that you certainly do the job, to stop and get help from others.
