🙏 OMG but he survived! You can see him moving in the bin at the end. 🙏 🚧 Ensuring Safety Around Heavy Equipment 🚧 As professionals working with heavy equipment, safety should always be our top priority. Here are some crucial tips to create a secure work environment: ✔ Training Matters: Ensure that all personnel are adequately trained to operate and work around heavy machinery. Regular training sessions can reinforce safety protocols. ✔ Visible Signage: Clearly mark areas where heavy equipment is operating. Use high-visibility signage and barricades to alert others and establish a safe perimeter. ✔ Communication is Key: Establish clear communication channels among team members and equipment operators. Use radios or signals to convey important information, especially in noisy environments. ✔ Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Enforce the use of proper PPE, including hard hats, steel-toed boots, reflective vests, and ear protection, to minimize the risk of injuries. ✔ Designated Walkways: Clearly mark and maintain designated pedestrian walkways away from the path of heavy equipment. Encourage workers to use these pathways to avoid unnecessary risks. ✔ Be Aware of Blind Spots: Equip heavy equipment with safety mirrors and cameras to minimize blind spots. Operators should also be trained to be aware of their surroundings, especially when reversing. ✔ Continuous Education: Stay informed about the latest safety standards and technologies. Continuous education and training can help in adapting to new safety measures and equipment advancements. ➕ What would you add? 🌐 Let's commit to creating a culture of safety around heavy equipment. Together, we can build a workplace that prioritizes the well-being of every team member. #socialmedia #management #oilgas

Attention Shocking Video !!! 😔 RIP When it comes to sharing videos of accidents involving rotating machinery for safety matter and awareness, it's important to approach the subject with sensitivity and a focus on awareness. Here’s a way to frame it: In our commitment to workplace safety, it's essential to understand the serious risks associated with rotating machinery. The following video, while difficult to watch, is shown to highlight the critical importance of safety protocols. Why It Happens Accidents involving rotating machinery often occur due to: 1. Lack of Proper Guarding: Exposed moving parts can catch clothing or body parts. 2. Inadequate Training: Operators not fully aware of the hazards or safety procedures. 3. Failure to Follow Lockout/Tagout Procedures: Machinery unexpectedly starting while maintenance or repairs are being performed. How to Avoid It 1. Ensure All Guards are in Place: Never operate machinery without proper guards. 2. Receive Comprehensive Training: All operators must be trained on the specific hazards and safety procedures for each machine. 3. Strictly Adhere to Lockout/Tagout Procedures: Always ensure machinery is properly shut down and cannot restart during maintenance. 4. Wear Appropriate Clothing and PPE: Avoid loose clothing and ensure personal protective equipment is worn at all times. 5. Regular Maintenance and Inspections: Ensure machines are regularly inspected and maintained to prevent malfunctions. By understanding these risks and adhering to safety protocols, we can prevent these tragic accidents and ensure a safe working environment for everyone. This approach highlights the educational purpose of the video, emphasizing prevention and safety while maintaining a respectful tone towards the seriousness of the content. #Moufidtaleb #safetyalert #opentonewopportunities #seekingnewjob #ressourcehumans #recruiters

Ensuring Safety Around Heavy Equipment In industries where heavy machinery is the backbone of operations, safety isn't just a protocol—it's a lifeline. As we embrace technological advancements and push towards increased productivity, we must equally prioritize the wellbeing of those who work alongside these powerful machines. Here are key practices to ensure safety in the presence of heavy equipment: 1️⃣ Comprehensive Training: Equip your team with the knowledge to operate and navigate around heavy machinery safely. Regular training sessions can significantly reduce the risk of accidents. 2️⃣ Maintenance and Inspections: Routine checks are essential. Well-maintained equipment is predictable equipment. 3️⃣ Clear Signage and Communication: Visibility is safety. Use clear signs to alert workers to potential hazards, and ensure that communication channels are open and effective. 4️⃣ Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): No compromise should be made on the quality and usage of PPE. It's the first line of defense against accidents. 5️⃣ Emergency Procedures: Every team member should be well-versed in emergency protocols in case an incident does occur. The weight of responsibility to create and maintain a safe work environment rests on all of our shoulders. Let's commit to safety as fervently as we do to progress.

Ladder Safety Month | Week 1 Week 1 of Ladder Safety Month focuses on ladder training and awareness. Employers need to provide proper training to all individuals who will be using ladders: • Educate users on ladder safety guidelines, best practices, and potential hazards. • Instruct users to read and follow all the safety information labels on the ladder. • Promote a culture of safety awareness where workers actively identify and report ladder safety concerns. Avoid factors that contribute to falls from ladders: haste or sudden movement, overreaching, lack of attention, improper climbing posture such as standing too high or straddling the ladder and carrying objects and not maintaining three points of contact. • Preplan - Inspect and know the hazards within your work environment. • Choose the correct ladder for the job – a self-supporting stepladder or a non-self- supporting leaning, single or extension ladder.

SAFETY TOOLBOX TIP: How Can You Protect Yourself from Being Struck by Objects or Equipment? Awareness of your surroundings and proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE) can go a long way in avoiding injuries at the construction site. Therefore, employers need to alert all workers of areas with more significant potential for struck-by accidents and limit employee access. • Never place yourself or anyone else under a suspended load. • Stay outside the swing radius of cranes and equipment. • Never position yourself between moving and fixed objects. • Wear high-visibility clothing (retro-reflective) near equipment and vehicles. • Check vehicles before use to ensure they are in safe operating condition. • Securely and neatly store loose materials. • Secure items that are stored at a height. • Store heavy objects close to the floor or ground level. • Wear the proper personal protective equipment for your environment, such as steel-toed / safety-toed shoes and a hard hat. • Always walk behind moving equipment if possible. • Never obstruct your vision by overloading moving equipment. • Only operate equipment you are adequately trained and authorized to use. • Make sure all safety devices on your equipment are in good working order before use. • Use extra caution around corners and near doorways. • When large equipment is being operated, always make eye contact with the operator before approaching. • Secure all loads and lift them evenly to prevent them from slipping. • Tether tools to your work belt when working from heights. • Create and manage work zones that separate pedestrians from vehicles and equipment.
