What is Fire ?
 WHAT IS FIRE
• A FIRE is voluntarily advancing process:
combustion of one or more inflammable materials & releasing
energy
• Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and carbon (or even
hydrogen and carbon) in which heat and light energies are also
released.
• combination which may be defined as a chemical reaction of rapid
oxidation accompanied with evolution of light & heat.

-Ensure MSDS for every material
-Ensure training for usage of MSDS
-Update MSDS

• Labeling
-Label all containers, vessels, discharge and transfer points
-Make appropriate signs on storage containers

• Training
 Chemical Hazards
• Flammable/Explosion
– Flash point
– LEL
• Toxic/Poison
– Acute / Chronic
– Local / Systemic
– Routes of entry
• Reactive
• Corrosive
Chemical Hazards- Harmful effects
Injuries
Burns in eyes, skin and other organs; fires and
explosions
Allergy
Breathing problems, skinrash and coughing
Illness
Short & long exposures can cause immediate
or delayed illness
Fatality
Poisonous chemicals can even cause death
 Chemical Hazards-
Basic Causes of Accidents
Hurrying, Overconfidence, horse playing, carelessness
Spills and leaks of chemicals if not wiped out
immediately
Working conditions like contamination of atmosphere
with harmful dust, vapors and gases -leading to
respiratory problems
Exposures of inflammable chemicals to heat, sun - fire
and explosion hazards
Contact of two or more incompatible material- can prove
to be detrimental.
Neglect or failure of chemical disposal in a proper way
-can become a source of fire or explosion
Mechanical Safety
 MECHANICAL SAFETY
Crushed hands and arms, severed fingers, blindness -
the list of possible machinery-related injuries is as long
as it is horrifying. Safeguards are essential for
protecting workers from needless and preventable
injuries.

A good rule to remember is: Any machine part,

function, or process which may cause injury must be
safeguarded.

Where the operation of a machine can injure the

operator or other workers, the hazard must be
controlled or eliminated.
Causes of Machine Accidents
• Reaching in to “clear” equipment
• Not using Lockout/Tagout
• Unauthorized persons doing
maintenance or using the
machines
• Missing or loose machine guards
Where Mechanical Hazards Occur

• Point of operation
• All parts of the machine which move, such as:
– flywheels, pulleys, belts, couplings, chains, cranks,
gears, etc.
– feed mechanisms and auxiliary parts of the
machine
• In-running nip points
 Point of Operation
That point where work is performed on the
material, such as cutting, shaping, boring,
or forming of stock must be guarded.

 Injuries

Lifting objects is a major

cause of back injuries in
the work place

Improper storing and

handling of material and
equipment can cause
struck by and crushed by
injuries
 Hazards of material handling
•Improper manual lifting or carrying
loads that are too large or heavy

•Being struck by materials or being

caught in pinch points

•Crushed by machines, falling

materials or improperly stored
materials

devices
 Manual Handling
• Seek help:
• When a load is too bulky to properly
grasp or lift
• When you can’t see around or over
the load
• When you can’t safely handle the
load

• Attach handles to loads to reduce the

chances of getting fingers smashed.
Safe Lifting • Break load into parts
• Get help with heavy or bulky items
• Lift with legs, keep back straight,
do not twist
• Use handling aids - such as steps,
trestles, shoulder pads, handles,
and wheels
• Avoid lifting above shoulder level
 Summary- Material Handling
•Manually handling materials
– When lifting objects, lift with your legs, keep your back straight,
do not twist, and use handling aids

•Using cranes, forklifts, and slings to move materials

Accident Reporting System
Based on the nature of injury, accidents are dived into mainly three
categories:

– First aid – Accidents which does not require any special

medical / surgical procedure.
 For First Aid injuries accident records are kept in the
Medical Center’s register.
 Upon receiving the accident report, investigation is done
by HOD Fire & Safety / Fire & Safety SIC for understating
the unsafe condition / act happened causing an accident
to happen.
 HOD Fire & Safety communicates the accident details to
GM-Works, DGM- Technical, DGM – M&S and HOD-
Production for all kinds of accidents.
Minor Accident – Accident which requires special medical /
surgical procedure but injured can resume duty within 48 Hrs from
the time of an accident.

If the person requires further treatment, which is not available at

Medical Centre, he/she is referred to outside contractual hospital.

In case of Minor accident, Injured person / respective SIC / HOD

fills up the Work Injury Report as per LAB / FS / FMT / 5 (in English)
or LAB / FS / FMT / 6 (in Gujarati) and sends original copy to
Medical Officer and duplicate copy to HOD Fire & Safety. Originator
retains file copy.

Upon receiving the accident report, investigation is done by HOD

Fire & Safety / Fire & Safety SIC for understating the unsafe
condition / act happened causing an accident to happen.
Major Accident - Accident which requires special medical / surgical
procedure / reference to tertiary care hospital and injured can not resume duty
within 48 Hrs from the time of an accident.

In case of Major accident, Injured person / respective SIC / HOD fills up the
Work Injury Report as per LAB / FS / FMT / 5 (in English) or LAB / FS / FMT /
6 (in Gujarati) and sends original copy to Medical Officer and duplicate copy
to HOD Fire & Safety. Originator retains file copy.

Upon receiving the accident report, investigation is done by HOD Fire &
Safety / Fire & Safety SIC for understating the unsafe condition / act
happened causing an accident to happen.

In case of Major accident, Injured person / respective SIC / HOD fills up the
Accident investigation Report as per LAB / FS / FMT / 7 (in English) or LAB /
FS / FMT / 8 (in Gujarati) and sends original copy to HOD Fire & Safety,
duplicate copy to Personnel Dept. and Triplicate copy to Medical Officer.
Originator retains file copy.
If the injured leaves the work place and takes treatment from
outside doctor without reporting injury to Medical Center, then
such an accident is not treated as an Industrial Accident.

For Major / Minor category of an accident, Fitness Certificate is

issued by Medical Officer as per LAB/FS/FMT/09 before injured
resumes the duty.

Cases which are refereed to outside contractual hospital, the

communication regarding the condition of victim, treatment given
and the advice for the necessary rest required if any, should be
communicated immediately or as early as possible to the Medical
Officer by the injured person or his/her relative.

In case of major accidents when an injured can not resume duty

within 48 Hrs from the time of an accident, as per the Factories
Act & GFR 103, Form no. 21 is filled up and sent to "Factories
Inspector" as soon as possible.
