Typical hazards & measures

  • Lack of first aid knowledge — Ensure that all participants and supervisors are aware of the location of the first aid kit and trained in basic first aid procedures. Provide first aid training sessions regularly to keep participants prepared.
  • Allergic reactions — Identify and communicate potential allergens such as dust or chemical fumes. Provide appropriate PPE and create a medical response plan in case of severe allergic reactions. Ensure all participants disclose known allergies beforehand.
  • Moving machinery — Provide clear instructions on the use of machinery, with safety guards in place where necessary. Ensure participants know to keep hands and clothing away from moving parts and use push sticks or guides.
  • Overcrowded workspace — Limit the number of participants in each session to ensure everyone has adequate space to work safely. Organize the workspace in zones to allow for different activities without interference.
  • Dust inhalation — Equip participants with dust masks when working with materials that generate dust, such as sanding or cutting wood. Set up dust extraction systems in areas where dust-producing activities occur.
