LESSON 2: Occupational Health and Safety


(OHS) Policies and Procedures

Introduction

Occupational Health and Safety or


OHS is concerned with health, safety,
and welfare issues in the workplace.
Policies and procedures are important
in discussing OHS because it aims to make the
workplace safer and better for workers and
stakeholders.

It is concerned with many factors such as removal


of hazards and reducing accidents in the
workplace.

As a future computer technician, it is your


responsibility to know these standard protocols
especially since you will be assembling and
repairing expensive and sensitive equipment that
need care and proper handling.

TOPIC 1: Occupational Health and Safety

Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) is a set of


policies and procedures that is followed in a
workplace in order to prevent accidents, illnesses,
and injuries. It involves knowing the risks that can
be encountered in a workplace and figuring out how
it can be prevented. Following OHS policies
and procedures is important when dealing with
electronics since it would protect not only the TOPIC 2: Hazard Identification

facilitate OHS procedures in a CSS work space: conducting computer systems servicing are:

1. Hazard identification * Tangled electrical cords

2. Risk assessment * Unsecured or unevenly stacked boxes

3. Risk control * Noise

TOPIC 4: Risk Control

Once the hazard has been identified and its risks


have been evaluated, it is time to address these
issues:

* Ask your supervisor for instruction and training


before using or repairing an equipment.

* Do not carry or move heavy objects by yourself.


LESSON 3: Applying Quality Standards

Introduction

Standards are sets of rules that


outline specification of dimensions,
design of operation, materials, and
performance. Standards provide basis for good
quality and protocol.

When it comes to computer systems


servicing, standards are important as it serves as
comparison for computer performance. Maintaining
quality is important to manage customer
satisfaction where the revenue and profits will
depend upon.

TOPIC 1: Assessing Quality

In computer systems servicing, you will be handling


a lot of equipment. You will be purchasing them,
assembling and disassembling, repairing, or even
maintaining them!

That is why it is important to assess the quality of


the materials you will be receiving especially when
you are purchasing from a supplier.

Here are some standard protocols in checking the


materials and goods you will be receiving in work
TOPIC 2: Documentation

Here are some samples of log reports and


documentation assessed by a quality checker.

Take note however, that not all organizations will


make use of the same form.

TOPIC 3: Inventory Form

Here is an example of an inventory form.

You will be encountering this after disassembling


computers. You will be listing down the PC
specifications in this form.

You can write the general description of what the


item is under Items while you can write the
specifications or necessary description below
Description/Specification. Anything else that you
think are important notes should be written on the
Remarks column.
