3. How Important Life Skill is?
Survival Life
Skills
Imagine you are in the middle of a wilderness you have nothing to eat, nothing to protect
yourself from the elements of nature, how can you survive? This situation has an increased
chance of happening, especially if you are not knowledgeable about survival skills. Hence this
unit module will help you to learn some survival skills.
What are Life skills?
Life skills are those skills that are not related to a particular intellectual or vocational
discipline, but rather describe the foundation skills for maintaining a fulfilling and
independent lifestyle. Advocates of life skills training typically mean one or both of two things
when they talk about life skills. First, they refer to practical skills that facilitate independent
living. Typically, these include keeping oneself fed and nourished, dealing with certain sorts of
bureaucracy and budgeting. Others refer more to ‘softer’ skills – skills that enable people to
interact with one another successfully and form good relationship, as well as to develop their self-
awareness and understanding of themselves.
Central to both these analyses is the individual’s perception of their own self- efficacy. Self-
efficacy is the ability to change our own situation or circumstances. It is separate from
notions of self-esteem or self- worth, although there is evidence that both those factors may
impact on self-efficacy and vice versa.
This interpretation of the relative importance of the two sets of skills is misleading, however, for
two reasons. First, there is a body of evidence that indicates that people do not actually behave in
this way. For example, displaced people frequently demonstrate a far greater concern about the
welfare of loved ones that they do about their own material needs, however fundamental needs
might be. Second, an important distinction needs to be made between material provision and
training in skills. While it is true that certain baseline needs must be met for people to live (such
as having access to food, Clothes and Shelter) this does not equate to it being necessary for a
person to learn to cook before being able to sustain other sorts of learning or development. In
fact, training in activities such as cooking, budgeting and dealing with bureaucracy presuppose
the existence of other sorts of baseline skills. Teaching someone how to deal with a benefit claim
will not help them if they are unable to control their temper when confronted with a challenge to

a claim they are trying to make. Equally, teaching someone to budget presupposes that they are
able to exercise sufficient self-management to delay gratification when saving for bigger items.
Why do life skills matter?

at the cost of developing and reinforcing those most basic skills
for living. Others would argue that as families and communities
become increasingly fragmented and children spend less time
engaged in interaction with these familiar social groups, children
are missing out on the opportunity to be socialized in the way that previous generations once
were. Life skills have risen up the agenda, they claim, because children are growing up in ways that
preclude them from learning these skills in the traditional way, among their families and communities,
thus creating the need for interventions in schools and other organizations to allow them to
develop the skills later in life.

Emergency
Preparedness and
Safety
Emergencies Management
and disasters can strike anywhere and at any time bringing workplace injuries and accidents with
them. Students may be required to deal with an emergency when it is least expected and proper
planning before an emergency is necessary to respond effectively.
Emergency preparedness refers to actions performed before an emergency. Examples can include planning
and coordination meetings; writing communication or standard operating procedures; training staff, volunteers,
and community members; conducting emergency drills and exercises; and ensuring that emergency equipment
is available, in good repair, and ready to use. (Rural Health Information Hub, 2002) Emergencies can be
identified as Medical, Fire, Severe Weather, Bomb Threats, Chemical Spills, Terrorist Attacks, Criminal Acts,
Extended Power Loss, etc. Personnel should identify these emergencies and report them to the Emergency
Coordinator and CALL 911 to alert Police. The local Emergency Services respond to emergencies.
Safety management is an organizational function, which ensures that all safety risks have been identified,
assessed and satisfactorily mitigated. (SKYbrary, 2019
Emergency Action Plan
An Emergency Action Plan (EAP) is a written procedure detailing the appropriate response to various
types of emergencies. An EAP is an essential component of an organization’s safety procedures. Creating an
EAP and training employees on how to follow it can greatly reduce employee injuries, property damage, and
can ensure the safety of visitors in the event of an emergency.
Key Components of Emergency Action Plan
There are, however, certain universal components that should be included in most EAPs, including:

COMMON SAFETY HAZARDS AROUND THE HOUSE
on
1.SaFalls. Keep children safe from tumbling down steps by installing safety gates at both the
bottom and top of staircases. Keep everyone safe by making sure the lighting is good and the
fet
handrails and steps are solid and well maintained. Elderly people with less mobility should
yconsider installing stair lifts or consider moving to a home without stairs to avoid falls.
Ha
2. Poisoning. Any cleaning products and harmful substances if kept in the kitchen should be
zastored in cupboards out of the reach of small children in higher cupboards. If they are kept in
rdlower cupboards, make sure you invest in inexpensive childproof locks for these cupboards.

3. Fire. Be careful when cooking and NEVER leave a pan of oil for deep-frying unattended.
Have your electrical wiring tested regularly by a qualified electrician. Keep matches and
lighters away from children.
If you smoke, take care to extinguish all cigarettes carefully.
Never leave a candle burning overnight.
Have a fire safety plan that everyone knows and carefully plan how you will exit the home.
2. Stop, look, and cross. This is the first rule in crossing the street. Be attentive and observant
of what is happening in your surroundings.
3.
Pay attention –LISTEN. Do not use earplugs, head phones and any mobile accessories that
blocks the sounds of your surroundings. Most of the victims of being hit a vehicle is the
people who wears headphone or earplugs while walking on the street.
4. Don’t run on roads. You wouldn’t know what’s coming to your direction. It is more safe
just to walk and walk on the side of the road.

5. Always use sidewalks. Sidewalks are meant for people walking but still pay attention to
your surroundings.
6. Crossroads and pedestrian crossing. There is specific place for crossing. Drivers tend to
give way to people crossing on pedestrian lanes because pedestrian are the priorities in these
areas.
7. Never stick hands outside the vehicle. We don’t know if there are single motors who will
pass through near your vehicle and might hit your hands if ever and you’ll end up losing it.
Same as sticking your head out the windows. Do not try it if you don’t want to beheaded.
8. Never cross road at bends. Road at bends is a blind spot for drivers. They wouldn’t notice
you crossing the road until it’s too late for them to step on the break.
9. Wear your helmet while riding the motorcycle or bicycle. Helmet is a safety protective
gear for head injury. It is mandatory to wear this whether you are riding your motorcycle or
bicycle.
10. Do not rush. Most of the vehicle accidents are due to high speeding. Maintain your speed
while driving. There are also signs on the side of the road indicating the suggested speed in a
certain place.
