Staying safe when working in a stressful industrial environment requires constant awareness of your surroundings, following safety protocols, and avoiding risky behavior. Look back at an accident or near miss and you’re likely to find incidents that contained an element of high-risk environment and/or high-risk behavior. A recent article in Paper360 walks through identifying risks of failure and eight steps to building a preventive maintenance program to effectively manage high-risk behavior and preventing failures to extend equipment life and decrease unsafe conditions.

Maintenance is Essential for Smooth Operations 🔧 Regular maintenance is super important! Here's why: if you don't set aside time to take care of your equipment, it will break down at the worst possible moment. ⏰ I love this saying: "I want to control when the asset goes down. I don't want the asset dictating when it goes down." It reminds me that it's better to fix things before they become a problem. 👍 At my previous jobs with EastWest Transport, Mapai Transport and Logistics, Agility, and Guard Dog Security Services Limited, making sure everything was well-maintained was a big part of my work. 🚛 By doing regular check-ups, we kept everything running smoothly and avoided unexpected breakdowns. 🔍 Remember, taking care of your equipment means it will take care of you! Regular upkeep not only keeps things working well but also saves time and money in the long run. A well-maintained asset is a reliable asset. 💪✨

In order to give site visitors helmet, sometimes site people have to sacrifice their own helmet. 2010 there is no safety officer in this site. After gaining two years of experience, we begin to autonomously manage the site. There is no longer a manager to consult, and headquarters consistently prioritize production. This necessitates self-reliance and independent work on our part. Certainly, expertise and proficiency will gradually develop within us over time. However, it's important to also cultivate the ability to learn quickly.

such a good idea

The difference between choosing the cheapest MEWP and choosing the right MEWP for the job is: Choosing the cheapest MEWP can lead to inefficiency and potential safety hazards. By choosing the right MEWP for the job, you get enhanced productivity and safety. Contact me to select the best MEWP for your project.

Absolutely, Ken Kuang. Safety is paramount in every construction process, especially when it comes to roof installation. There are standard safety protocols in place for jobs of this nature. First and foremost, all workers are required to wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as helmets, gloves, and non-slip footwear. Harnesses and safety ropes are also used when working at heights to prevent falls. In addition, regulations require the use of scaffolding or other secure platforms that provide stable footing. Where possible, guards or rails are installed at the edge of roofs to further enhance worker safety. The crew should always be trained in first aid procedures and there should be a readily available first aid kit on site. It's also crucial that the crew is educated about potential hazards of the job and how they can avoid them. Lastly but importantly, regular breaks allow workers to rest and thus reduce the risk of fatigue-related accidents. Remember it's not just about getting the job done;

The below photo might remind you of the lyrics „what a difference a day makes“.. No? Well, as you might appreciate, this took a bit more than a day: one of the vessels in our #management underwent the intermediate dock, also known as an intermediate survey or docking. It is a scheduled maintenance event typically conducted around the halfway point between the major 5-year renewal drydockings. The primary purpose of the #intermediate #dock was to inspect the vessel's hull, machinery, and systems to identify any issues that may have developed since the last #drydocking. This time it evolved around hull #maintenance: cleaning, treatment and painting, and any other tasks deemed necessary based on the vessel's operational history, age and regulatory requirements. Intermediate docks can be costly and require the vessel to be out of service for a period of time. With careful planning and coordination we managed to fit into the scheduled time frame and were able to even optimize some of the budgeted costs. How, you ask? Well, this dry dock also marked the #onboarding of one of our freshest supermen – Technical Superintendent Roman Andrejev joined us right in time for the dock and brought a wealth of precious Yard knowledge from the other side of the table. Yes, there were some hiccups along the way, but we love ourselves a bit of a challenge, don’t we? 📷 Raigo Vatsfeldt (Technical Superintendent, "before" photo) and Marko Välja (Vessel's Master, "after" photo) #shipmanagement #yardwork #processplanning

Personal responsibility is at the heart of our culture at Berg - 'Acting as an Owner' is a key piece of our mission and values as an organization. Every day, we walk onto our job sites with one goal in mind – get the job done safely. But even more than that, we feel an unwavering responsibility to one another, our families and friends to make sure we all return home safely. Weekly Safety Calls and daily morning huddles help to keep our team members informed and aligned across our sites. Our Safety Coordinator, Blair, makes her rounds to ensure our crews have the necessary resources to prioritize safety in their tasks. Every individual is empowered to give and receive safety-related feedback. Do we get it right every time? No, but do we make a continuous effort to learn from our mistakes and do better tomorrow? Yes - that's how we evolve, and learn what we can do to improve our safety and training practices. Effective, consistent, and respectful communication is a standard we strive to set from the top down, because at Berg, everyone is a leader when it comes to safety. #ConstructionSafetyWeek #SafetyFirst #PersonalResponsibility #SafetyTalks #Communication #ValueEveryVoice

As we wrap up Construction Safety Week, we wanted to raise awareness about the risks associated with confined spaces on job sites. ⁠ ⁠ Confined spaces can be hazardous, and understanding the difference between permit and non-permit spaces is crucial for worker safety.⁠ ⁠ What's the difference?⁠ 1️⃣ Non-permit confined spaces don't have the potential to contain hazards capable of causing death or severe injury.⁠ ⁠ 2️⃣ Permit-required confined spaces have the potential to produce conditions that can lead to severe injury or death.⁠ ⁠ That's why at Hellman Electric, our team always assumes a confined space requires a permit until confirmed otherwise to avoid accidentally entering a dangerous situation. ⁠ ⁠ Our team's safety is our top priority, so we work together to ensure everyone goes home safely during Construction Safety Week and every week! 🙌⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #ConstructionSafetyWeek #ConfinedSpacesSafety #SafetyFirst #WorkerSafety

I made a mistake that could have cost me my safety. Site visits are one of the most interesting yet risky parts of my work. While my visits are planned most of the time, on some days, I have to go to sites for sudden fieldwork directly from my office without any planning. On these sudden visits, I often end up going without my safety gear and nothing really happens. Till today. We were outside a mine today and I almost lost my balance and slipped on the rocks. On top of it, my formal shoes might need a good cleaning session now! Fortunately, I didn't get hurt at all But surely I missed my site-visiting shoes a lot after that incident. I got my lesson today. Things go wrong exactly when we start to take them up lightly, even a bit. Now I have decided to keep a spare pair of my site-visiting shoes and other safety gear in my office for any sudden visits. P.S. Make sure you are all geared up during your site visits! . . . #constructionsite #constructionequipment #safety #constructiongear
