Workplan: 6-Step Heat Stress Workplan

Focus On: Selecting Hand Tools
Using the wrong tool or using a tool incorrectly can cause debilitating ergonomic injuries. An increased risk of injury occurs when workers are frequently exposed to awkward postures, contact pressure, or a pinch grip. Over time, exposure to awkward postures or harmful contact pressures can contribute to an injury. Hand tools that fit a worker’s hands and the job they are doing can reduce the risk of injury. Here are 11 tips for hand tool selection to share with your employees.
Focus On: Working Outdoors
Working outside in the heat exposes workers to the possibility of a heat-related illness. In fact, heat-related fatality cases show that with temperatures above just 70°F/21°C can present a heat hazard when work activities are at or above a moderate workload. Other hazards of working outside in the summer include exposure to Ultraviolet (UV) radiation, Lyme Disease/Tick-Borne Disease, West Nile Virus, and Poison-Ivy Related Plants.

Focus On: 9 Things You Must Do to Meet CSA Z460 and ANSIASSE Z244.1 Lockout Requirements
Safety devices like barrier guards that are designed to keep workers away from operating machinery don’t do much good when machines are shut down for maintenance and repairs. The danger is that the machinery will start up while being serviced and crush, electrocute, burn and/or amputate the limbs of workers performing the servicing operations. These incidents are typically caused by the inadvertent and unforeseen release of energy left in the system. That’s why OHS laws require you not only to turn off the machine but ensure it’s isolated from its energy source before servicing it. The way to do this is by implementing what’s called a lockout/tagout (LOTO) program.
