Other Administrative Controls

Other administrative controls that may not have been explicitly identified in the hazard or accident analysis include management commitments to establish, implement, and maintain appropriate controls and activities that provide additional defense-in-depth safety. Table 5.5-1 summarizes the controls required to be in-place within the HCF, along with a cross-reference to SAR sections in which these controls are described. 

Hot jobs should be scheduled for the cooler part of the day, and routine maintenance and repair work in hot areas should be scheduled for the cooler seasons of the year. Other administrative controls are to reduce the physical demands of work. For example, reduce the amount of excessive lifting or digging with heavy objects provide recovery areas, such as air-conditioned enclosures and rooms use shifts, such as early morning, cool part of the day, or night work use intermittent rest periods with water breaks use relief workers use worker pacing assign extra... 

Refer to Chapter 11 for a detailed review of this program. You should minimize hazards by substituting less hazardous materials or equipment whenever possible and engineering controls that distance the worker from the hazard. For the remaining hazards, design safe work practices, train your employees adequately in these practices, and enforce the practice consistently. In some cases, you may also need to establish other administrative controls, such as employee rotation or more frequent work breaks where needed. 

If part of a systan important to safety has been rendered inoperative intentionally by using a feature provided in the design specifically for this purpose, this condition should be automatically displayed in the control room. If part of a system important to safety has been rendered inoperative by other administratively controlled means, this should be clearly indicated in the control room. 

Completely Denatured Alcohol. Completely denatured alcohol (CD A) escapes the involved financial and administrative controls required of the other classifications of industrial ethanol. No tax is appHed, no bond is required, no permit is needed to enable a customer to purchase CD A. Requirements for records by both producer and user are minimal. These simplified regulations are possible because CDA is denatured with substances that render it totally unfit for beverage purposes. It is also unsuitable where odor is objectionable. CDA and products made from it are, however, governed by special labeling requirements of the BATE. Repackaging of completely denatured alcohol is permitted as long as labeling requirements are met. 

Procedural—Using operating procedures, administrative checks, emergency response, and other management approaches to prevent incidents, or to minimize the effects of an incident e.g., hot-work procedures and permits. These approaches are commonly referred to as administrative controls. 

Each cell in tlie matrix (Table 18.4.2) is assigned a risk ranking as indicated by the letters. In this approach, an A level risk corresponds to a very severe consequence with a high likelihood of occurrence. Action must be taken, and it must be taken promptly. At tlie other end of the scale, a E level risk is of little or no consequence witli a low likelihood of occurrence, and no action is needed or justified. For example, a level C risk might warrant mitigation witli engineering and/or administrative controls or may represent risks tliat are acceptable with controls and procedures. 

A chemical engineer may have a choice of inherent safety variables, such as quantity stored or process temperatures and pressures, or process safety measures such as emergency isolation valves or containment systems, all of which may greatly reduce the vulnerabilities or the consequences of intentional loss. These are in addition to traditional security measures, which may include physical security, background checks, administrative controls, access controls, or other protective measures. For a more complete discussion of the options, refer to the AIChE Center for Chemical Process Safety Guidelines for Analyzing and Managing the Security Vulnerabilities of Fixed Chemical Sites and other references.f... 

Procedural controls (sometimes called administrative controls) use operating procedures, emergency response and other management approaches to prevent incidents or to minimize their effects. In other words, they involve human intervention to control hazards. Examples of such controls...

Other restrictions depend on what your phony business is all about and on federal and state restrictions or requirements. The Food and Drug Administration controls animal dmgs, human dmgs, cosmetics, certain drug intermediates, food, etc. 

In crisis situations, concerned agencies respond differently, stemming from variations in tasks, jurisdictions, education, geographical environment, level of preparedness, and other administrative and political considerations. Consequently, they are drawn into a crisis at different moments, with varying viewpoints and purposes. Considering these divergent responsibilities, it is essential to coordinate efforts to mitigate and control civil disorders. 

Although use of isolators or other effective engineering controls is the preferred method of handling highly potent compounds in solid form, this is not the only possible approach. We have found that use of traditional laboratory controls and a combination of high level of PPE in conjunction with rigorous administrative controls can provide adequate protection. Before considering the use of any of these solutions in a workplace, make sure workers are fully informed about hazard identification, risk assessment and control options. 

Nasal administration. Apart from parenteral administration, controlled release dosage forms based upon the microsphere concept should have application to other routes of administration. Microspheres in the form of pellets have been used to deliver drugs to the gastrointestinal tract and other examples include the administration of microspheres to the eye and topically to the lungs. In recent studies Ilium (20) has employed microspheres as possible controlled release formulations for nasal application. Such studies have relevance to the delivery of novel macromolecular compounds such as peptides and proteins. 

There are three types of control engineering control, administrative control, and use of personal protecting instruments. The design or redesign of the job changes in a workstation layout depends on the selection and use of other tools and work procedures to take account of the capabilities and limitations of the workers. Administrative control deals with the change of job, modified rules and procedures, scheduling more... 

There are three basic types of intravenous administration 1) primary set 2) secondary set and 3) a volume control set (Fig. The basic components of all these sets include a piercing spike (to insert into the bag or bottle), drip chamber and drip orifice, tubing ranging in length from 160 to 250 cm (63-98.58 in.), a roller clamp or other flow control device on the tubing. 

The central administrative body of drug regulation is the MOH, but other administrative bodies have been established in this regard. The most important is the State Institute for the Control of Drugs. Its main responsibilities are the following ... 

Unlike many other industrial operations, the batch nature of paint manufacturing necessitates a flexibility of worker and equipment. Such flexibility means that workers Cannot always be adequately protected through the use of engineering and administrative controls. Therefore, some degree of personal protective equipment is needed. 

Based on these assumptions and identified hazardous properties of the raw material (such as those that appear in Section V of the MSDS), the supplier will assign the "maximum protective equipment" required. This maximum protective equipment recommendation will match the recommendation on the MSDS contained under the personal protective equipment section. The task then falls to the paint manufacturer to evaluate his suppliers recommendation in light of other protective measures within his plant. This includes such things as engineering controls and administrative control procedures. Then the paint manufacturer must assign the proper protective equipment for his workers.
