The folks at NALCO knew the old method of relying on tie-offs to protect loading operators was problematic. In addition to limiting mobility and slowing down operations, they also present a potential trip hazard, introducing new risks in a busy loading environment. Additionally, they knew it was difficult to monitor compliance, wondering if workers were tying off properly at all times. Check out this video, which shows how we created a solution that streamlined operations, improved productivity, and ensured compliance for loading iso-tainers at their Texas facility. https://ow.ly/7zb950PGAf9 #saferack #fallprotection #osha

Just watched a video where someone sat on a tire, overfilled, got exploded 💥 and threw the person on top of a car, narrowly avoiding a fall into an oil pit, and lucky the handle of the handjack didn't go through him 😧. This reminded me about our #process #safety #forum which we were fortunate to host an enlightening session this week led by our esteemed process safety manager, Mr. Wale Adeola ✨ His captivating presentation not only kept us #engaged but also reminded us of the crucial role of #process #safety #barriers. As Mr. Wale Adeola shared a sobering story of a process safety incident 🔥 Incident: Formosa Plastics Vinyl Chloride Explosion Location: Location: Illiopolis, USA Accident Occurred On: 04/23/2004 Video: https://lnkd.in/dYMF3Gj4 Personally, it resonated deeply, drawing parallels to the tire incident video. Both incidents underscore the dire consequences of #overlooking #safety #protocols and the importance of #robust #safety #measures. This highlights the need for #competency, #awareness, and #basic #safety. Knowing our #limits, staying #alert to #hazards, and following #safety #protocols are fundamental to #preventing #disasters 🤝🏻 Let’s learn from these examples and prioritize process safety in every aspect of our work and raise awareness, especially the people who work in #normal #industrial #areas and #shops who don't have the privilege of having similar awareness sessions and proper guidelines to follow💡 #SafetyFirst #Awareness #Competency #ProcessSafety #SafetyCulture #RiskMitigation

Welcome to the Safety Scuttlebutt where we ask questions about safety to gain insight on how to resolve safety issues. Today's question is related to machine hazardous. How do you identify risk to operators when those risk aren't always obvious or easy to see?

Raise your hand if you've ever seen one of these installed with the shipping plugs never removed. (Me!) Thanks European Process Safety Centre for the Lesson, download it here https://lnkd.in/gfFmyCcp #processSafety #pressuresafety #safety
