24.01.2022 Time to do a check of your employees licences

23.01.2022 .... and they say Health and Safety's not important. One tragic accident can destroy a corporate reputation and dramatically impact business.

23.01.2022 WA: Company fined $65,000 after worker crushed at goldmine Wednesday 4 January, 2017 WA-based company DKMSPP, formerly operating as TME, was recently fined $65,000 in Perth Magistrates Court following an incident that seriously injured a worker at Newmont's Boddington Gold Mine in 2012.... The company had been contracted to reline the ball mills used to process ore at the Boddington mine. On 11 July 2012, Francois Mostert was working with the day shift crew to reline Ball Mill 3. He was preparing to remove two unsecured liner plates from inside the ball mill when the top liner plate dislodged and fell onto him. Mostert was trapped underneath the liner plate, which weighed about 1450kg, and had to be rescued. He was taken by ambulance to Boddington Hospital, before he was stabilised and flown to Royal Perth Hospital for further treatment. Mostert sustained extensive injuries, including compound leg fractures, fractured vertebra and crush injuries to his chest. He was discharged from hospital on 8 October 2012, almost three months after the incident. WA Department of Mines and Petroleum Mines Safety director and state mining engineer Andrew Chaplyn said the incident could have been fatal. While a number of safe work procedures had been developed for work tasks related to relining the mill, none of them addressed the removal of stuck liner plates, Chaplyn said. The unsecured liners had been identified as a hazard, but they were not included in any job safety analysis and there were no barriers keeping the work crew out of the line of fire if one of the unsecured liners fell. Chaplyn said the department's investigation identified inadequate training and procedures as contributing to the incident.

Gideon Ashby has developed an app that makes life easier, it includes Take 5, and also Pre-Start Checks and Hazard Assessment and it costs only $5.00 per user for life.. ... Now that has to be a better way! for more information please visit http://take5apps.com.au See more

15.01.2022 My Safety Tip for the week: If your organisation has a lot of OHSE and Emergency procedures try putting them all into a Flowchart format. BENEFITS: - It reduces the word content - It reduces the document to 1 page (normally) - They are easy to understand ... - They are simple to follow - It makes review of them a quick and easy process See more

08.01.2022 Do you provide clear instructions ? Do your workers have documented procedures and adequate training and supervision to ensure they work in a safe manner? OHS Legislation requires that organisations provide adequate training and supervision for workers and have Safe Work Procedures, SWMS or JSA's to ensure your workers performing tasks, as safely, effectively and efficiently as possible without posing risks to the environment.... We can provide training in hazard/risk management and the development of SWP's or JSA's or we can develop them for you.

07.01.2022 Workplace bullying is usually blamed on individuals, interpersonal problems, or personality clashes. This is too simplistic bullying occurs because of cultu...ral, organisational and structural issues in the workplace. Bullying is more likely to occur when unreasonable work demands are being made, where leadership is weak and when roles and responsibilities are ill-defined. This Mental Health Week, were calling on employers and employees to stop bullying before it starts. Our Heads Up website has step-by-step guides on preventing inappropriate behaviour and promoting a positive work culture where bullying is not tolerated: www.headsup.org.au/workplacebullying
