Safe Lifting Techniques, Safe Back!! We lift things several times daily, from a toothbrush in the morning to plates, bags, small children, big heavy boxes, and furniture, Lifting is such an integral part of everything we do that we tend to do it automatically, without thinking. And that’s when it can become a problem – suddenly we’ve lifted something and our back starts to hurt. Lifting things incorrectly can cause a variety of injuries to our back and other parts of our body. Back strain, caused by overstretching certain muscles, is the most common type of injury. Lifting incorrectly can also cause a hernia. These types of injuries can be worse if we’re not in good physical condition. Poor posture, lack of exercise, and stress, coupled with incorrect lifting, can be a hazardous combination.
What Is RAGAGEP And Why Does It Matter? This is an acronym standing for Recognized and Generally Accepted Engineering Practice. It is applied in safety systems management, a regulation for enforcement of engineering processes approved by OSHA.OSHA requirements are set by statute, standards, and regulations.
The consequences of environmental pollution is visible in severe. In recent times the world is grappling with and chronic deadly diseases; the destruction of aquatic life (both flora and fauna) has damaged the natural habitat of man and some precious irreplaceable wildlife as the world keeps getting warmer and hotter, continuous depletion of soil quality has greatly altered food production (quality and quantity), depletion of earth resources has resulted to deterioration of life cycle and expectancy and opened the door for other calamities like earthquakes, cyclones, flooding to wreck our world. Evidently, all of these have caused irreplaceable damage to humankind.
Owing to the increasing cases of catastrophic and deadly events across the world, there is the need to change the narrative;
Process safety among many other values sustains economic prosperity and environmental sustainability. This is through periodic assessment and instalment of prevention equipment and personnel. It is agreed that technical process and safety impacts people, communities, asset and environment (McLennan, 2018).
It also strengthens inter- sectoral harmony. As a multi-disciplinary approach, it brings professionals of different fields and synergizes a union dedicated safety and technical performance. This collaborative potential enhances a fusion of safety excellence and bond of technical excellence within stakeholders (Shariff, 2017) .
Technical process safety hinders major catastrophes from happenings (injuries and fatalities) and promote safe workforce (people and equipment). The entire process seeks to attain safety and loss of viable economic and productivity resources.
