UNDERSTANDING SAFETY

Construction-related injuries are


decreasing
This trend is most likely due to
increased awareness of the potential
risks surrounding construction jobsites
Understanding of the potential risks of
concrete construction and proper
training is necessary to limit injuries

TYPES OF HAZARD DURING


CONCRETE MANUFACTURING

Material Hazards
Machinery
Tools
Jobsite Conditions
Handling & Placing Concrete

Material Hazards

Cement comprises 7 to 15 percent of total concrete


volume
As an alkaline material, wet cement is caustic, and can
cause severe chemical burns to exposed skin and eyes
Thats why its so important to always wear water-proof
gloves, a long-sleeved shirt, full-length trousers, and
proper eye protection

PREVENTION

Wash wet concrete, mortar, cement, or cement mixtures from your


skin immediately. Flush eyes with clean water immediately after
contact
Seek immediate medical attention if you have persistent or severe
discomfort
Workers opening bags or sacks of cement and cement products
should always wear a dust mask in addition to their regular safety
attire.

Machinery & Tools

Rotating machinery is always a potential source of


injury on a jobsite
Early-entry saws, concrete/masonry saws, cut-off saws,
and power trowels pose a threat to appendages when
used improperly
In addition, any sustained or sudden noise above 85
decibels emanating from machinery can be damaging
to the ear

PREVENTION

Machine should be have proper and scheduled


maintenance
Stop the usage of machinery if have possible hazard
Do not exceed power limit of machinery
Place at the proper storage to avoid hazard

Handling & Placing


Concrete

The proper technique must be use


when handling or placing concrete on
site
This is because it will include vehicles
and machinery use
The workers that will handle the
concrete must be trained before do the
works

Jobsite Conditions
The general condition of the jobsite can also be
hazardous
Cramped, confined projects or sections of a project
affect operations and safety
Locations exposed to traffic, utility wires, excavations,
or hazardous materials can produce unsafe conditions

Prevention
Site must install barrier to avoid dust or other people
entering the site
All workers must Wear PPE in site
The wastage ,machine , tools must be placed at the
proper storage
