Health and Safety in the Workplace

Since employers have the most control over the conditions of work and how it is to

be done, they have the greatest legal and moral responsibility for health and safety in

the workplace. And they must take all precautions to protect the health, safety and

welfare of workers on the job.

For workers, they must take reasonable precautions to protect their own health and

safety, as well as the health and safety of others. They are responsible for their own

actions or inactions. Workers must:

● use safeguards, safety appliances, and personal protective equipment as required

by the employer;

● know and follow company health and safety policies, practices, and procedures;

● report accidents, occupational illnesses, and near misses;

● report health and safety hazards and concerns.

Machine Safety

Mr White works as a supervisor in a factory. He is now giving some instructions to

several new workers.

“I realize some of you already know the safety procedures for this type of machine

but I’ll just explain some of the basics again. First of all, make sure you know how to

stop the machine before you start it. That seems obvious but it’s important.”

“Secondly, always check that all the safety guards are fitted correctly before you

operate the machine because if you don’t, someone might have a bad accident.

What else? Oh yes, never try to clean a machine while it’s in motion. Turn it off and

unplug it.”

“And finally, tell your supervisor immediately if you think the machine is not working

properly. OK, so has anyone got any questions?”

Responsibilities for Ensuring Safety at Work

During your working day, you must ensure that you take reasonable care for health

and safety. If you are offered training for equipment or your job you should take it

and then apply it to your job. There is usually a good reason for the training, and

failing to pay attention may cause injury to you, or a co-worker in the future. If you

suffer injuries as a result of your work, you should report them to your employer, no

matter how small they seem. Your employer might need to review and change your

working practices so as to avoid a more serious injury at a later date. Read

flowcharts and instructions carefully in order not to use any equipment improperly.



Part B

Read the passage below to decide the duties for workplace safety. Tick in the boxes.

□ apply your training to your job

Fun Time

Fire Drill

A voice on the factory loudspeaker announced, “We’re going to test the

speaker system to make sure it’ll work properly in case of an emergency.”

My confidence ( 信心 ) in this safety precaution began to fail when the

voice added, “If you are unable to hear this announcement, please let us

know.”

Question:

Why did the story teller’s confidence begin to fail?Because the workers would not be able to hear the announcement at all if the loudspeaker wasn’t working.
