Lesson 1
Occupational
Safety and
Health
What is OSH?
Occupational safety and health (OSH) is a
planned system of working to prevent illness
and injury where you b recognizing and
identifying hazards and risks.
Health and safety procedure is the
responsibility of all persons in the computer
and technology industries. You must identify
the hazards where you are working and decide
how dangerous they are. Eliminate the hazard
or modify the risk that it presents.
The following are the examples of
OHS that related to computer
hardware servicing.
• Contingency measures during workplace accidents, fire and
other emergencies are recognized.
• Personal protective equipment are correctly used in
accordance with organization OHS procedures and practices.
• Hazard/risks in the workplace and their corresponding
indicators are identified to minimize or eliminate risk to co-
workers, workplace and environment.
• Always discharge yourself before touching any part of the
computer.
• Be careful with tools that may cause short circuit.
• Wear rubber sole shoes when standing on the ground or in a
concrete floor.
• Always power off and unplug the computer
before working on it.
• When making circuit changes, switch off and
unplug the power cord from the equipment
then discharge the capacitors.
• Replace only fuses with those proper rating
holds the components by the edges and do
not touch the IC’s.
• Read and follow instructions on the manual
carefully.
• Do not use excessive force if things don’t
quite slip into place
Three steps used to manage
health and safety at work:

•Spot the hazard (Hazard


Identification)
•Assess the risk (Risk Assessment)
•Make the changes (Risk Control)
What is
HAZARD?
A hazard is anything that could hurt or someone else

Examples of workplace hazards include:


• Frayed electrical cords (could result in electrical
shock)
• Boxes stacked unsecurely (they could fall on
someone)
• Noisy machinery (could result in damage to you
hearing)
What is RISK
ASSESSMENT
Assessing the risk means working out how
likely it is that a hazard will harm someone and
how serious the harm could be.

Whenever you spot a hazard, assess the risk


by asking yourself two questions:
• How likely is it that the hazard could harm
me or someone else?
• How badly could I or someone else be
harmed?
Risk Control
It is your employer’s responsibility to fix hazards. Sometimes
you may be able to fix simple hazards yourself, as long as you
don’t put yourself or others at risk. For example, you can pick
up things from the floor and put them away to eliminate a trip
hazard.
What to do?

• Ask your supervisor for instructions and training before using


equipment.
• Ask you help moving or lifting heavy objects.
• Tell your supervisor if you think a work practice could be
dangerous
Common hazards
encountered by
Computer Technicians
and Users
Physical Hazards

Is an agent, factor or circumstance that can cause


harm with or without contact. They can be classified
as type of occupational hazard or environmental
hazard.
One of the most common physical hazards involving
computer technicians is cables running across the
floor. If someone trips, falls, and hurts himself
because of a cable you ran across the floor, someone
(you, your employer, or your customer) has a serious
legal negligence problem
If you need to temporarily run a cable across
the floor, place a Danger sign similar to those
“wet floor” signs used by cleaning services.

For cables that are temporary but will need to


run across the floor for a longer period of
time, use “gaffers tape”. Gaffers tape is a
heavy tape with strong adhesive to stick to
the floor. It comes in a wide range of colors,
from unintrusive matte black to hazard
warning red. Although it has strong adhesive,
it can be removed easily and cleanly.
For long term cable routing
there is a wide variety of
cable organizing devices
like cable ties, cable wraps,
and cable raceways which
can be used to run cable
safely along the wall or
ceiling.
Mechanical Hazards
It is created as a result of either powered or
manual (human) use of tools, equipment or
machinery and plant.
You might stick your hand in a printer and
suddenly the paper feed arm moves, feeding not
only paper through the printer, but a piece of your
finger too.
When working on electronic equipment always be
alert to any possibility of being hurt by moving
parts, hot components, or sharp edges.
Electric Shock Hazards
Inside computers and electronic equipment, there is a
range of voltages from 3.3 volts to 25 volts, most of
these are harmless. But at the power supply, you’ll
find line voltage, which is a lethal 220 volts.
Most of the time while working inside computers and
electronic equipment, you’ll want them unplugged
from the wall socket. If you need to work on
equipment while it is still plugged in or powered up,
remove all jewelry and wrist watches. If you must
work inside a line power distribution box, wear an
electrician’s rubber insulated gloves and safety
glasses.
Make a list of hazards that may be
present in your own home. Give the
possible risk hazards.
