Occupational safety
and health (OSH)
-is a planned system of working to
prevent illness and injury where you
work by recognizing and identifying
01
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.
Lesson 3
Practice Occupational Health
and Safety Procedures
Learning Outcome:
17
1. Unlock different occupational health safety
procedures for literacy and awareness using various
dynamic computer applications
2. Enumerate the different hazards and risks that may
occur in workstations and places.
3. Decode the meanings conveyed by different
hazards and risks warning symbols and importance of
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

In every field of work, there are safety precautions
and practices to be followed to prevent accidents.
Sometimes before an accident occurs a warning is
given, so the individual concerned can prepare for the
undesirable eventualities. In some situations, no
warning at all is served and anyone is caught by
surprise. In areas where students are acquiring basic 10
technical skills safety begins the moment they enter
the work area or at times before reaching that work
area. Identifying health hazards and occupational
risks is indispensable. In laboratory areas where
students stay to acquire skills there are certain points
to consider.
1. Electrical hazards. Electrical hazards are the type of risks that are
more likely fatal than any other hazards that can happen in a laboratory
room. Electrical hazards such as electrical shocks from open wires, grounded
electrical appliances can be found anywhere in a disorganized laboratory
area.

2. Hazards from improper use of hand tools. Hand tools are classified into cutting
tools, driving tools, boring tools, joining tools, and measuring tools. Cutting tools may inflict
injuries when improperly handled due to its sharp edges that can cut through the skin of
the human body.
Driving tools
Driving tools like screw drivers and hammers, when used improperly
can break human flesh or fracture bones which are very painful to an
individual. 15
Soldering tools
Soldering tools such as soldering iron, soldering gun and hot air
soldering causes extreme heat and burn in the skin when improperly
used.

TOOLS MAINTENANCE and SAFETY RULES
1. Tools will last longer when properly kept and maintained. A good worker keeps and
cares for his tools. The following are some pointers to follow in keeping hand tools in good
condition.
2. Be sure to inspect tools before using them. This is to check if they are in good working
condition. The evidence is when you are able to use them smoothly and conveniently with
ease and comfort.
3. After using a tool, clean it thoroughly with a damp cloth before keeping it in a tool box
or cabinet.
Oil the metal parts of a tool to prevent any form of damage caused by air, water, or rust.
The following safety rules should be understood and strictly followed to avoid accidents while
working. 08
1. Avoid wearing loose clothing when working. Sleeves should be fit and shirts tucked in as much
as possible. Remove ties, watches, rings, and other jewelry from your body.
2. Report immediately injuries or accidents of any type to your teacher.
3. Never put fasteners or any small metal articles in or near the mouth when working.
4. Never throw tools of any type around. Make sure the sharp edge of cutting tools are away from
the edge of the table or work bench.
5. Keep working areas clean and free from disposable materials.
6. Secure the help of your classmates when carrying heavy tools to avoid accidents.
7. Never use dull or damaged tools.
8. Do not use tools with loose handles and ragged. Report cases like these to the teacher and do
necessary repair and adjustments, if possible.
9. Know and observe safety measures specific for each tool or operation.
Safety Requirements
For your protection, observe the following safety requirements:
Follow all cautions, warnings, and instructions marked on the equipment.
Ensure that the voltage and frequency rating of the power outlet matches the electrical rating
labels on the system.
Use properly grounded power outlets.
3. Torque Control - High torque requires a lot of force to keep the tool 04
from rotating out of your hand. Torque settings should be set to the
minimum required by job specifications, especially for in-line and pistol-
shaped tools.
4. Grip - Tool handles should allow stable and efficient grip. The handle should be
cylindrical or oval in shape, with a diameter of between 1.25 and 1.75 inches. Tool
handles should contact as much of the hand and fingers as possible. Grips should be
made of non-slip compressible and nonconductive material. Avoid form-fitting handles
(handles with finger grooves), since they may not fit the hand size of every user. Handles
should be kept clean and free from slippery grease, oil, or sweat.
04
5. Span - On two-handled manual tools, like pliers, the open span should
be about 4 inches and the closed span should only be about 1.5 inches.
6. Spring-loaded handles - A spring-loaded mechanism saves muscular
effort and reduces mechanical stress on the backs and sides of fingers
for such tools as scissors, pliers, and other manual cutting and gripping
tools which have to be opened and closed repeatedly during use.
9. Avoid overhead work if possible. Use a ladder to reduce the need for outstretched arms.
10. Keep the elbows close to the body.
04
13. Sit up straight so the chair offers good back support. Adjust the
chair back so it comfortably supports the natural curve of the lower
back. Adjust the seat height to allow thighs to be parallel to the floor.
