Awareness responsibilities

Definition and application of HAZWOPER standard, DOT guidelines, awareness response training, role of Level I responder leader s training guide included. 

In the intense process of rapid transformation of rescue success and failure, the emotion of rescue commanders and fighters will have some drastic changes which will have positive or negative influence on action effect of the rescue team and their ability of body. A high degree of political awareness, responsibility and sense of honor is the important aspect of fostering emotional stability. Therefore, they should pay more attention to it in peacetime. 

US NRC (2000) also raised several human performance issues associated with CBPs. The issues are as follows methodological and criterion requirements for evaluating CBP effects, role of plant personnel in procedure management, team performance, situation awareness, response planning, and operator error level of automation of procedure functions keyhole effects and use of multiple CBP procedures CBP failure in complex situations hybrid procedure systems and specific CBP design features. 

The purpose would be to become aware of how Risk Awareness, Response Capacity, and Support (i.e. the three CSFs) are linked and dependent upon each other in their contribution for successful recovery of incidents. 

For more information regarding situational awareness, transition from normal operation to crisis, and roles and power issues, see Skjerve, Albrechtsen, and Tveiten, 2008. Note The CSFs may also be appHed in an lO training context in terms of specifying themes (Risk Awareness, Response Capacity, and Support) that illustrates the interdependencies between onshore offshore.

The environmental performance of companies within the industry is normally subject to the legislative requirements of the host government, but is increasingly becoming scrutinised by the public, as available information and general levels of awareness increase. Major companies see responsible management of the environmental aspects of their operations as crucial to the future of their business. The approval of loans from major banks for project finance is usually conditional on acceptable environmental management. 

Ana.lytica.1 Methods. Since 1984, dramatic technical advances have been made in the analysis of trace organic chemicals in the environment. Indeed, these advances have been largely responsible for the increased pubUc and governmental awareness of the wide distribution of herbicides in the environment. The abiUty to detect herbicides at ppb and ppt levels has resulted in the discovery of trace herbicide residues in many unexpected and unwanted areas. The realization that herbicides are being transported throughout the environment, albeit at extremely low levels, has caused much pubUc and governmental concern. However, the pubUc health implications remain unclear. 

Sources of Error. pH electrodes are subject to fewer iaterfereaces and other types of error than most potentiometric ionic-activity sensors, ie, ion-selective electrodes (see Electro analytical techniques). However, pH electrodes must be used with an awareness of their particular response characteristics, as weU as the potential sources of error that may affect other components of the measurement system, especially the reference electrode. Several common causes of measurement problems are electrode iaterferences and/or fouling of the pH sensor, sample matrix effects, reference electrode iastabiHty, and improper caHbration of the measurement system (12). 

Contract disposal agencies offer their services to reheve the chemical industry of unwanted materials however, the cost of such disposal (primarily incineration) is high. The manufacturer should ascertain that the disposal agency employees are adequately aware of chemical ha2ards and can responsibly handle and dispose of the waste materials (see Wastes, industrial).

Analysts should discuss sample-collection methods with those responsible. Frequently, the methods result in biased data due to venting, failure to blow down the sample lines, and contamination. These are limitations that must either be corrected or accepted and understood. Sampling must be conducted within the safety procedures established for the unit. Since samples may be hot, toxic, or reactive in the presence of oxygen, the sample gatherers must be aware of and implement the safety procedures of the unit. 

Field Measurement Conditions Those gathering samples must be aware of the temperature, pressure, flamm ihty, and toxic characteristics of the samples for which they will be responsible. This is particularly important when samples are taken from unfamihar locations. Sample ports will have to be blown down to obtain representative samples. Liquid samples will have to be vented. Temperatures above... 

Laboratory The laboratoiy requirements and responsibilities need to be identified and accepted. The laboratoiy supervisor must be aware of the impending test and the hkely demands placed on his/her area of responsibihty. Agreement as to error levels and expected turnaround must be reached. Proper sampling methodology and storage must be established and practiced. 

Corporate environmentalism is an evolving concept for environmental protection. In this case, business takes a pro-active stance independent of regulatory authorities. This can be in recognition of social responsibilities, but is more successful when compelled by competition in the market place. Thus, a hrm can conscientiously target environmentally aware consumers (through marketing environmentally friendly products or processes) or can be better placed for hnancial support from ethical investment funding bodies. 

Are there appropriate planning, training, drills, and equipment for response to emergencies If yes, ask to review the emergency response plan and training records. Be aware that for some facilities, an acceptable plan is to evacuate and call the fire department. 

Although not as informative as past performance measures or hard evidence of good programs, the existence of a company policy stating a candidate toller s commitment to health, safety and environmental responsibility should be determined. These policies, typically signed and displayed prominently in the facility, help ensure management and company executives are fully aware of their commitment to workers and the public. 

Century organic vapour analysers are factory calibrated to measure total organic vapours according to a standard (methane). Since different organic vapours interact with the flame ionization detector (FID) to varying extents, it is vital that the instrument user be aware of the magnitude of the variation in order to obtain the most accurate data. Each user must determine relative responses for the individual instrument.

First Responders need only awareness training to recognize that an emergency response situation exists and are instructed to summon employees who are fully trained. First Responders are not to attempt to control activities for which they are not trained.
