What should enterprises do to ensure labor safety in manufacturing ?
Labor safety is one of the problems of extreme interest to which mechanical processing enterprises need to pay attention. Ensuring labor safety issues will help workers avoid unexpected events that may occur in manufacturing. Thus, what do businesses have to do to ensure labor safety in mechanical processing factories?
What is labor safety?
Labor safety is to execute measures or activities to protect workers’ lives and health.
Labor safety in mechanical processing factories expresses in differents forms.Which are:
-Protective clothing
-Hard hats, gloves, safety goggles, and safety shoes
-Respiratory protection devices
-Fire protection equipment
How to limit the risk of accidents at work?
1/ Predicting problems causing industrial accidents to give solution timely.
Nowadays, there are many reasons making workers’ lives and health in mechanical processing factories are in danger. So, to ensure labor safety, enterprises need to consider the causes of accidents at work. Which are:
-Protective equipment for workers does not ensure quality safety.
-Protective equipment is not sufficient for all workers in the company.
-Find out machinery failures untimely, leading to electric shock, fire, and explosion.
-Necessary lighting conditions for factories are poor.
-The blower and ventilation systems operate ineffectively, leading to a high temperature of machinery.
-Workers break the rules of labor safety.
-Arrange factories unreasonably, obstructing the process of moving and transporting.
Therefore, when working in processing factories, workers always face different risks. Predicting risks will help enterprises find suitable solutions to solve unexpected problems quickly. Since then, they will avoid damage to human resources and properties in manufacturing.
2/ How to ensure labor safety in mechanical processing factories?
When enterprises know the causes of problems affecting labor safety, they have to give measures immediately to minimize the consequences. There are some ways to ensure labor safety that mechanical processing enterprises can refer to:
-Use safety goggles to protect the eyes in case of metal may suddenly shoot out.
-Equip workers with the fit occupational clothing, avoid wearing big size clothes.
-Take off all watches, bracelets, necklaces, and other types of jewelry when working.
-Machine operators should not wear gloves.
