Typical hazards & measures

  • Hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) — Use low-vibration tools and maintain them regularly. Limit exposure time by rotating tasks and provide anti-vibration gloves. Conduct health surveillance for early detection of symptoms.
  • Falls into excavations — Secure excavation sites with barriers and signage. Ensure proper shoring or trench boxes are used to prevent collapses. Conduct daily site inspections to assess stability.
  • Fire hazards — Store flammable materials properly and away from ignition sources. Implement hot work permits for tasks like soldering. Equip work areas with fire extinguishers and train workers in their use.
