How Can You Communicate Possible Risks Effectively With Your Staff? - Altronix

OSHA The Occupational Safety and Health
Administration is an agency in the United
States that is responsibility of ensuring safety
at work, and a healthy working environment.
OSHAs mission is to prevent work-related
injuries and deaths, making it one of the most
important standards regarding safety as it
provides essential steps to be followed while
handling potentially dangerous products and
alerts on possible risks. However, employees
often have problems with compliance and
integration into the safety program at their
workplace. This can be avoided by following the
below mentioned steps that can help comply with
the safety programs correctly.

• Creating a written risk communication plan
• A written document about any aspect in the
  workplace with all details mentioned is important
  to ensure that no individual working there has
  missed out a point. A written document on the
  handling of chemicals and other dangerous
  substances thus ensures safety of the staff. The
• document must include the details of the
  chemicals and products, along with the procedures
• for usage, and the possible risks if mishandled.
  A written document generally includes purpose
  and scope, schedule of tasks and inspections,
  procedures to be carried out, training
• programs, best practices to be used, methods of
  storage and transportation, and methods to avoid
  risks.
• Inventory list
• There must be a list of the chemicals, products,
  and other substances used to define where and
  how each one should be used. The data provided
  here must include location tracking,

• tracking of containers, management of prohibited
  products, conversions, and units of measurement
  calculations.
• Library of safety data sheets
• Once all the risks and risky products are
  identified and categorized, all of it should be
• organized in the form of safety data sheets to
  create a library that can provide easy access to
  employees at all times. This library must include
  everything about the identification of
  substances and the suppliers, storage and
  handling guidelines, composition and detailed
  information of the components, physical and
  chemical characteristics, list of risks involved,
  protection guidelines, and first aid measures.
• Labelling
• Labelling is one of the most promising methods of
  maintaining safety and reducing hazards and
  accidents. Every product and container should be
  appropriately and clearly labelled. High
  visibility labels must be used that clearly
  depict the products name, risks, warnings, and
  any
• warning signs where necessary. This is where
  Alltronix can help. Brady is a pioneer in
  manufacturing a variety of labels designed for a
  wide range of applications and environments.

  chemical resistant, and many other kinds of
• labels that can be effectively used in the most
  extreme environments too. And, Alltronix is the
  leading Brady distributor in Pune, Delhi, Mumbai,

• where you can get these labels easily from.
• Training of the staff
• Last but most important, the entire staff must be
  trained well and educated about every
• product in the premises, including the staff
  right from top management to the lower levels.
  All the personnel must be correctly trained about
  the products and risks involved. They must be
  able to identify, read, and interpret labels and
  data sheets. They should also know how to assess
  all that they are involved with.
• With these simple steps, you can significantly
  avoid accidents in your workplace and keep your
  staff safe against dangers!
