Security Hazards

Worksite hazard identification and analysis identifies existing hazards and conditions, operations and situations that create or contribute to hazards, and areas where hazards may develop. This includes close scrutiny and tracking of injury or illness and incident records to identify patterns that may indicate causes of aggressive behavior and assaults. The objectives of worksite hazard identification and analyses are to recognize, identify, and plan to correct security hazards. Analysis uses existing records and worksite evaluations should include record review and identification of security hazards. 

Analyze medical, safety, and insurance records, including the Organizational Safety and Health Administration (OSH A) 300 log and information compiled for incidents or near incidents of assaultive behavior from workers or visitors. This process should ensure confidentiality of records of employees and others. This information should be used to identify incidence and severity and to establish a baseline for identifying change. 

Identify and analyze any apparent trends in injuries relating to particular departments, units, job titles, unit activities or workstations, activities, or time of day. It may include identification of sentinel events such as threatening of workers or identification and classification of where aggressive behavior could be anticipated, and by whom. 

Worksite hazard identification and analysis should use a systematic method to identify the areas needing in-depth scrutiny of security hazards. This analysis should do the following  

OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY MANAGEMENT A PRACTICAL APPROACH

Ensure appropriate levels of security, hazard warning notices, fences, patrols. Control access including vehicles Segregate/seal drains... 

Gas-collector systems are installed directly beneath the low-permeability clay cap in a hazardous waste landfill. Landfills dedicated to receiving only hazardous wastes are relatively new and gas has never been detected in these systems. It may take 40 years or more for gas to develop in a closed secure hazardous waste landfill facility. Because the long-term effects of gas generation are not known, and costs are minimal, U.S. EPA strongly recommends the use of gas-collector systems. 

Secure hazardous materials in locked buildings or fenced areas. Have a sign-out system for keys. 

Operation against rules lies in not only direct individual harms, but also the potential indirect harm to the enterprises. That unsafe operation behaviors continues to occur leads to enterprises security hazards and they are difficult to troubleshoot. That affects the lives and safety of workers. If a person s death causes the direct economic loss of 800, 000 yuan, losses caused by accidents are very serious, shown in Table 2. 

Training and education ensure that employees know about potential security hazards and ways to protect themselves and their co-workers. 

Dimming controls are available for fluorescent as well as mercury vapor lamps. They reduce light output to what is required for the tasks involved. The percentage of light reduction is close to the percentage of energy consumption reduction. In no case should lighting levels be reduced to less than what is required. Worker productivity will suffer safety and security hazards may be created. 

We consider in a second stage security-related events that may lead to the same undesirable event a burglar can attack the person in the house to get the combination of a safe. The burglar can enter the house directly if the door is unlocked or he can force it if it is locked. We give in Fig. 2 the BDMP model covering both safety and security hazards. The Petri net models the fact that the door can be initially locked or unlocked with a probability of 0.5 for each alternative. Initially, a token is placed in pi. This token enables to activate at t=0 the transition locked door and at t > 0, the token is definitively either in place locked or in place unlocked. The Petri leaf door locked (resp. door unlocked) is true when there is a token in the locked (resp. unlocked) place (this is ensured through a non-graphical link between Petri leaves and the places). 

The service providers in public transport systems for passengers and goods are expected to ensure security during the entire process of such transportation. The air and water transport systems have fairly well controlled access control mechanisms. Therefore, they suffer far less from security hazards than the road and rail transport... 

Commitment and involvement are essential elements in any safety and health program. Management provides the organizational resources and motivating forces necessary to deal effectively with safety and security hazards. Employee involvement, both individually and collectively.
