Scots gathered in smaller and larger groups from Glasgow and Aberdeen to Invernessand Kircaldy to Orkney, to commemorate all those killed around the world in the pursuit of greater profits for the owners of industry. According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), 144 workers were killed at work in 2015-16. Workers safety reached its peak in 2013but since then has steadily declined. In 2014 the Trade Unions Congress (TUC) warned that cuts planned to the HSE and the abolishment of some health and safety regulations would lead to an increase in workplace deaths. Grahame Smith, STUC general secretary, said: On Tuesday at our Congress in Aviemore we heard of the shocking accident record on the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route construction project, over 100 injuries since the project commenced; we believe these incidents are directly as a result of consistent failures to consult trade unions, failure to have adequate health and safety representation and the prominent use of agency workers who are too frightened to report safety issues. Opinion – Yvonne Ridley: Remember Aberfanand the complicit establishment The growing gig economy and the changing world of work each provide significant challenges in delivering safe and healthy work environments for all workers, a challenge only trade unions can deliver, research from across the world shows that where trade unions are present workers are less likely to suffer injury or ill health as a result of work and we will be focusing our effort on making our workplaces, fairer, safer and healthier in future. HSE figures show that 144 workers lost their lives in 2015-16, a figure that only scratches the surface of the real picture, many thousands more die as a result of occupational cancers, hundreds as a result of work-related road traffic accidents and there is growing concern around suicide linked to work. International Workers Memorial Day allows us to spend some time reflecting and remembering the victims of health and safety failures and committing to fighting back against ideological attacks on health and safety enforcement by the United Kingdom Government, and the continued undermining of health and safety by certain media outlets only too willing to promote the Governments position. The UK Government has argued it needs to reduce health and safety provision to make industry more profitable. No one knows the full figure for work-related deaths, as companies and governments often cover the true figure up. But the International Labour Organization estimates the figure to be 2.2 million per year. Picture courtesy of Savannah River Site Check out what people are saying about how important CommonSpace is.

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) HSE regulations requirements for boom lifts distinguish between equipment safety and operator safety training. Training OSHA regulations do not demand certification for boom lift operators, but they require that workers who operate aerial lifts are properly trained in the safe use of the equipment. Training can be given by the employer, provided it is done by a qualified person, or a professional trainer. Training issues must include electrical and fall risks, hazard precautions, load capacity and restrictions, manufacturer requirements based on the manual and a final skills demonstration in the operation of the boom lift. . Maintenance Proper maintenance of the boom lift contributes significantly to workplace safety. OSHA advises employers to perform maintenance with the help of qualified mechanics who are experienced with the specific lift model. Maintenance should be performed frequently and in accordance with the manufacturer’s manual. At least once a year, a detailed inspection must be undertaken. All electrical, mechanical, pneumatic and hydraulic components must be examined and tested thoroughly. Personal Protective Equipment According to OSHA, it is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that workers use personal protective equipment that can protect the wearer from harm or even death.

types of winches Oftentimes, possession of a good winch may stand between driving and walking home. Nevertheless, owning a winch comes at a price. General safety precautions should be taken by anyone handling them. Some of these precautions include: Proper training should be taken so as to clearly understand the working of the winch and how to safely operate it. A no-go zone should be established during the recovery process, in case the winch rope snaps and whiplashes. When handling steel winch ropes, gloves should be used as the winch can develop sharp burrs as it wears that may cause injury. The winch should be tested on a regular basis to ensure its ongoing reliability and safety. After every use of a winch rope, it should be neatly rewound onto the winch drum. Types of Winches Winches can broadly be categorized into electric mechanical winches. Electric Winches Electric winches offer a range of choices.

When Good Hiking Trails Go Bad What happens when a much used hiking trail suddenly goes bad to the point of being unsafe and unusable? How does the trail get fixed? Who pays for the trail restoration effort? How does the restoration project get scheduled and who restores the trail? Hiking trails can go bad for a number of reasons including fire and insect infestation which can drop so many dead and dying trees on a trail that sections become entangled in interlocked limbs. Trees that don’t fall entirely can form interlocked umbrellas of dead limbs and trunks such that over the course of several years they impose a safety hazard as limbs, trees, or previously suspended fractured trunk fragments work free and crash to the ground. And of course sections of hiking trails can slide off into the canyon up against a cliff face or a steep hillside so that either no passage is available or a narrow, dangerous width is all that remains. If I may, I’d like to describe two trails, one that was heavily damaged in the Curve Fire of 2002 (see Curve Fire ) and another trail which has a 15-foot extremely unsafe gap caused by a land slide which carried the trail — and thousands of pounds of San Gabriel granite — down in to the canyon about 500 feet below the trail. Soldier Creek Trail is located in the Crystal Lake Recreation Area of the Angeles National Forest (see Crystal Lake ).
