5'S AND
OCCUPATIONAL
HEALTH AND SAFETY
After completing this lesson, you should be
able to:
1. define and explain Occupational Safety and
Health (OHS);
2. discuss common hazards and risk at
workplace;
3. appreciate the importance of Occupational
Safety and Health (OHS) procedures.
What is the Occupational Safety
and Health (OSH)
is a planned system of working to
prevent illness and injury where you
work by recognizing and identifying
hazards and risks.
Occupational Safety and Health (OSH)
OHS or Occupational Health and Safety
refers to the action, policies, procedures
and activities that aim to protect the
health, safety and welfare of all people
at the workplace.
Occupational Health and Safety Procedure
1. Contingency measures during workplace
accidents, fire and other emergencies are
recognized.
Mechanical Hazards
Chemical Hazards
Electrical hazards
Physical Hazards
any agent, factor, or
circumstance that can
cause harm with contact
or through environmental
exposure
Physical Hazards
One of the most common physical
hazards involving computer
technicians is cables running across
the floor.
Mechanical Hazards
a safety risk related to
machinery, tools, or
equipment that can
cause injury
Mechanical Hazards
When working on electronic
equipment always be alert to any
possibility of being hurt by moving
parts, hot components, or sharp
edges.
Chemical Hazards
is any substance that
can potentially harm
human health or the
environment.
Chemical Hazards
There are display cleaning chemicals,
keyboard cleaning chemicals,
compressed gas dirt and dust removers,
and many cleaning solvents. Some of
these chemicals can be harmful if
accidentally swallowed, get on bare skin,
or get in eyes.
Electrical Hazards
is a dangerous
condition involving
electricity that can
cause injury or death
Electrical Hazards
Inside computers and electronic
equipment, there is a range of voltages
from 3.3 volts to 25 volts, most of which
are harmless. But at the power supply,
you will find line voltage, which is a
lethal 220 volts.
Safety
Precautions
when working
Safety Precautions at Work:
1.Always ground or discharge
yourself before touching any part
of the computer.
Safety Precautions at Work:
2. Do not work alone so that there is
someone who can take care of you in case
of accident or emergency. Beware of the
devices that can cause short circuit. Please
fill up the handle with the cable connector
and not keep it on the cable itself.
Safety Precautions at Work:
Anti-static mat
– Used to stand on or
place hardware on to
prevent static
electricity from
Proper Use of Antistatic Wrist Strap
1. Connect the cable to
the metal chassis of the
computer.
