Inspection I found unsafe act and conditions like li!e electrical cables were going through scaffolding pipe which can cause ha"ards like electrical shock and electrocution. Improper storage and handling of materials like gas cylinders and painting materials. @all ha"ards while lifting >shifting >carrying of materials. @all of person and material from height due to unprotected edges. 6lip and trip due to improper housekeeping. +rgonomic issues due to improper manual handling. ?ork at height !iolations like without edge protection and full body harness working at height abo!e 0 meters. 7ot work !iolation like gas cutting doing on an area spread with full of paper and other combustible material. iolation of $$+’s, not wearing $$+’s like hand glo!es and ear muff for hea!y drilling work. Improper chemical handling such as cement and other chemicals containing bags were shifting by manually and the workers are not wearing any $$+’6. (he store area were not properly !entilated and ill uminated. $oor condition of the access road, some areas of the site access road contain loose and non compact soil, water stagnant and lengthy ramp. $oor maintenance facility, absence spill tray and spill kit in machine maintenance work and non functioning filter of 6ilo didn’t changed due to this oil spread on the floor and cement spread on the atmosphere . &ack of training and super!ision are some reason for ha"ardous situation like person using duct pipe instead of platform ladder and tiles cutting inside a congested and non !entilated room. %bsence of proper barrication and competent riggers in lifting work is a ha"ard. %bsence of proper signage board and fire fighting e/uipment can cause ha"ardous situation. $oor competence le!el of the worker and una!ailability of resources can cause for ha"ardous situation. +liminate or reduce these ha"ardous conditions from the site gi!es safe working en!ironment for the employee. It reduces the incident>accident rate of the company and which sa!e money and reputation of the company. It will help to increase the production and competence le!el of the employee. It will sa!e the insuredE uninsured cost and e/uipment repairing and replacing cost. If these ha"ards were neglected it will damage the reputation of the company and loss of further orders. &egal or organisational fine and punishment like imprisonment and corporate probation orders. It will increase the incident>accident rate which can affect the temporary or permanently closure of the business. It will decrease the production and morality of the employee.
