Some of you may be familiar with OSHA - the Occupational Safety & Health Administration. The sole purpose of this agency is to keep American workers safe. Complying with OSHA regulations isn't always easy, but if we work together, we can do it. Yet, complying with regulations is not the real reason for working safely. Our real motive is simple. We careabout each and every one of you and will do what isnecessary to prevent you from being injured.
However, keeping our work place safe takes input from everyone. Management, supervisor, and all of you have to come together on this issue, or we're in trouble. For example, upper managementhas to approve the purchase of safe equipment.Supervisors, including myself, have to ensure that each of you knows how to use that equipment safely.Then it's up to you to follow through the task and use the equipment as you were trained. If any one part of this chain fails, accidents are going to happen and people are going to get hurt.
Responsibility Number One - Recognize Hazards
At the core of your safety responsibilities lies the task of recognizing safety and health hazards. In order to do that, you must first understand what constitutes a hazard. Extreme hazards are often obvious. Our hopes are that you won't find too many of those around here.
There are, however, more subtle hazards thatwon't jump up and bite you. As a result of your safetytraining and meetings like these, some things maycome to mind. For example, a machine may not beeasy to lock out. Common practice may be to use a tag.This is a potential hazard and should be discussed.Maybe something can be changed to make it easier touse a lock. Other subtle hazards include such thingsas frayed electrical cords, a loose machine guard, acluttered aisle, or maybe something that just doesn'tlook right.
Responsibility Number Two - Report Hazards
A big part of recognizing hazards is using yourinstincts. Nobody knows your job as well as youdo, so we're counting on you to let us know aboutpossible problems. Beyond recognizing hazards, youhave to correct them or report them to someone whocan. This too, is a judgement call. For example, if something spills in your work area you can probablyclean it up yourself. However, if there is an unlabeledchemical container and you have no idea what it is,you should report it to your supervisor.
Additional Employee Responsibilities
Good housekeeping is a major part of keepingyour work area safe. For example, you should take afew minutes each day to ensure that aisles, hallways,and stairways in your work area are not obstructed.If boxes, equipment, or anything else is left to pileup, you have a tripping hazard on your hands. Thoseobstructions could keep you from exiting the buildingquickly and safely should you face an emergencysituation.
Also watch out for spills. These can lead to slipsand falls. Flammable materials are another thing tobe aware of. Make sure they are disposed of properly.
Keep Thinking. Even if you're doing your jobsafely and you are avoiding hazards, there are ofteneven better ways to work safely. If you have ideas forimproving the safety of your job or that of co-workers,share them.
Concluding Remarks
While nothing we do can completely eliminate thethreat of an incident, we can work together to improveour odds. As I said, this must be a real team effortand I'm counting on input from all of you. Let's keep communicating and continue to improve safety.
