Your Back IQ Test (Part 1)

Safety Toolbox Talk Webmaster

Lifting

Lifting safely is one the most important things you can do to protect your back

throughout your lifetime. Back injuries are a painful, sometimes debilitating, problem in

many industries. The key to back care lies with the individual worker. Everyone should

be a back care "expert" and be able to answer the following questions:

Q: What's the most important lifting rule to remember? (Wait for some answers)

A: Keep The Load Close! There are many other lifting rules, like "bend your knees and

lift with your legs," but you can't do this in every situation. Research has also shown that

leg muscles become fatigued when frequent lifts are required, so other techniques must

be used as well.

Q: If you don't hold a load close to your body, how much heavier is the

"experienced" weight than the actual weight? (Wait for some answers)

A: Ten times as heavy! The back operates as a simple lever, with the fulcrum in the lower

back. Back muscles serve as the power arm; the load being lifted is the weight arm, and a

10-1 lever ratio exists in the lower back. The further away you hold the load, the

"heavier" it is.

Q: Why never twist with a load? (Wait for some answers)

A: Lumbar (lower back) vertebrae, disks and joints are under the most vertical pressure

when lifting a load. Twisting with a load creates a "shearing" effect on these tissues. The

more "mileage" you have on your back, the less forgiving it will be under this pressure.

Preventing Hypothermia
Safety Toolbox Talk Webmaster
Weather
Winter is coming and the temperatures outside are starting to slide. Beside the general
frustration of it all, there is a serious hazard associated with being outside in the winter -
hypothermia.
Hypothermia is a lowering of the body's core temperature, commonly caused by getting
wet and chilled. As the body temperature drops, damage to the vital organs such as the
brain can occur.
Hypothermia can be fatal, so it is important to avoid these conditions and get prompt
medical help if it develops.
These are some symptoms of hypothermia: Chills, shivering, confusion, loss of coordination,
inability to speak clearly and irrational behavior. The victim can lose
consciousness, indicating a serious case of hypothermia.
The way to prevent hypothermia is to stay warm and dry:
Dress warmly but wear layers so you can take clothing on and off as conditions
change. Too much clothing can make you sweaty, setting the stage for chills.
Keep your head covered because a significant amount of body heat can be lost from
the head. If you need a hardhat liner for warmth in the winter, make sure it is approved
for use with your hardhat so it does not interfere with protection.
The combination of wet and cold is particularly dangerous, so carry extra clothing
including socks and gloves if there is any chance yours will get wet.
Falling into water can be quickly fatal in winter. Even in summer, hypothermia can
occur after immersion in cold water.
Keep moving when you are outdoors in cold weather. Head for someplace warm and
dry for your rest breaks.
Be aware of the symptoms of hypothermia and watch for them in yourself and your coworkers.
If symptoms develop, get to a warm, and dry place right away. Call for medical
help immediately if symptoms are serious.
Drinking alcohol can make you more susceptible to hypothermia, so avoid this when
you are outdoors in the cold.
Beware of hypothermia during your recreational pursuits. Try not to get wet when you
are out skiing, ice fishing or snowmobiling.

Cyber Safety - Social Media
Rendani Mulovhedzi
Office
Social media refers social interaction through a suite of technology based tools, many of
which are internet based.
This includes, but not limited to, Facebook, Myspace, LinkedIn, Twitter, blogs, etc.
The number of social networking sites and tools is exploding and such tools have
breached the walls of the corporate firewall and;
•are a part of our most important smartphone apps
•are a vital tool for any serious job search and
•are the new way to connect with current and new friends.
The Internet and social media can be an incredible resource as it offers an incredible
amount of “real-time” news events. But it also presents new and unfamiliar challenges,
and tends to amplify the effects of any ethical misjudgments you might make.
Social Media Ethics
When an employee uses social media in an irresponsible way either on behalf of the
organization or personal media account, it can undermine the organizations ethical
practices and exposes it to integrity risk.
Conduct yourself online just as you would in any other public circumstances. Treat those
you encounter online with fairness, honesty and respect, just as you would offline. Verify
information before passing it along. Avoid actions that might discredit your professional
impartiality.
Can my behavior on my social media account affect my employment?
There is little distinction between your personal and professional life in the digital age,
what you do or say, even if it’s outside of working hours, could result in you facing
disciplinary consequences, even the loss of your job.
Don’ts of social networking
•Avoid Making False or Misleading statement
•Don’t believe everything you read.
•Do Not Disclose Privileged or Confidential information
Safety Tips for Social Networking
1. Sharing Too Much Information (TMI)
1. never share your ID number
2. home address or home phone number, and
3. bank account and credit card information.
2. Customize privacy options. Social networking sites increasingly give users more
control over their own privacy settings. Don’t assume you have to take whatever
default settings the site gives you.
3. Limit work history details on LinkedIn.
4. Don't violate your company's social networking /ICT policies
What you put on the internet is like a tattoo, it’s very, very difficult to remove!

Slips, Trip and Falls - Winter Safety Tips
Safety Toolbox Talk Webmaster
Slips, Trips and Falls
This week we’re looking at Slips, trips and falls. It is the number 1 reason for an
industrial injury in the United States. Today let’s look at walking outside when it’s cold
and snowy or icy.
Here are some tips:
•Plan ahead and give yourself sufficient time.
•When walking on steps, always use the hand railings and plant your feet firmly on
each step.
•When walking on an icy or snow-covered walkway, take short steps and walk at a
slower pace so you can react quickly to a change in traction.
•Bending your knees a little and taking slower and shorter steps increases traction and
can greatly reduce your chances of falling. It also helps to stop occasionally to break
momentum.
•Streets and sidewalks that have been cleared of snow and ice should still be
approached with caution. Look out for "black ice." Dew, fog or water v***r can
freeze on cold surfaces and form an extra-thin, nearly invisible layer of ice that can
look like a wet spot on the pavement. It often shows up early in the morning or in
areas that are shaded from the sun.
•Carrying heavy items can challenge your sense of balance. Try not to carry too much-
-you need to leave your hands and arms free to better balance yourself.
•Be prepared to fall and try to avoid using your arms to break your fall. If you fall
backward, make a conscious effort to tuck your chin so your head doesn't strike the
ground with a full force.
•When entering a building, remove as much snow and water from your boots as you
can. Take notice that floors and stairs may be wet and slippery--walk carefully.
•Use special care when entering and exiting vehicles--use the vehicle for support.

End Of Daylight Saving Time Can Be Deadly
Safety Toolbox Talk Webmaster
Seasonal
Early next Sunday morning most of those in the United States will turn their clocks back one hour for the end of Daylight Saving Time. Most of us think: “Fantastic! I get another hour of sleep”; and yes you will. However, there is a huge difference between the “society clock” and the “biological clock” we all work from. During such time changes there is statistically an increase in safety incidents.
With the end of daylight savings time comes an increase of darkness around the time of rush hour, when traffic is at a peak and many are making our way home from work. Drivers aren’t used to the decreased visibility – nor are pedestrians, who might take chances crossing roads when they shouldn’t.
Pedestrians walking around at dusk are nearly three times more likely to be struck and killed by cars in the days following the end of daylight saving time than just before the time change. A study of seven years of nationwide traffic fatalities was conducted at Carnegie Mellon University, calculating the risk per mile walked for pedestrians. The study found that the per-mile risk jumps 186 percent from October to November.
The National Road Safety Foundation (NRSF) has done studies proving that auto accidents increase after the clocks fall back an hour. Besides the lack of visibility, the NRSF notes that commuting in the dark can also make drivers drowsier than usual. According to some health studies, changes in waking time coupled with the earlier onset of darkness throws off our internal clocks. This increases driving risks, primarily because in our 24/7 society, we have a fundamental problem of already being sleep deprived.
The end of daylight saving time can leave many feeling fatigued, which can pose safety risks both at home and in the workplace. Some things to keep in mind when switching back to standard time are:
Fatigue -- Studies suggest that it takes people who work traditional hours several days to fully readjust their sleep schedule after the time change. While it may seem a welcome gift to get an extra hour of sleep as opposed to losing an hour in the spring, there is a physiological consequence to changing our clocks. Don’t be surprised if you feel a bit sluggish during the first week or so of November.
Accidents -- Evidence suggests that time changes increase safety problems both at work and at home. Just being aware of the increased risk of accidents in the period immediately following the time change may help you stay alert. Try to avoid building up a sleep debt in the days before the change.

Why Safety Belts?
Safety Toolbox Talk Webmaster
General
Whether you are driving to work or driving a powered industrial truck at work, safety belt
use is important each and every time you get behind the wheel.
Why Safety Belts?
To understand the value of safety belt use, it's important to understand some of the
dynamics of a crash. Every motor vehicle crash is actually comprised of three collisions.
The Car's Collision
The first collision is known as the car's collision, which causes the car to buckle and bend
as it hits something and comes to an abrupt stop. This occurs in approximately one-tenth
of a second. The crushing of the front end absorbs some of the force of the crash and
cushions the rest of the car. As a result, the passenger compartment comes to a more
gradual stop than the front of the car.
The Human Collision
The second collision occurs as the car's occupants hit some part of the vehicle. At the
moment of impact, unbelted occupants are still traveling at the vehicle's original speed.
Just after the vehicle comes to a complete stop, these unbelted occupants will slam into
the steering wheel, the windshield, or some other part of the vehicle interior. This is the
human collision.
Another form of human collision is the person-to-person impact. Many serious injuries
are caused by unbelted occupants colliding with each other. In a crash, occupants tend to
move toward the point of impact, not away from it. People in the front seat are often
struck by unbelted rear-seat passengers who have become high-speed projectiles.
The Internal Collision
Even after the occupant's body comes to a complete stop, the internal organs are still
moving forward. Suddenly, these organs hit other organs or the skeletal system. This
third collision is the internal collision and often causes serious or fatal injuries.
So, Why Safety Belts? During a crash, properly fastened safety belts distribute the forces
of rapid deceleration over larger and stronger parts of the person's body, such as the
chest, hips and shoulders. The safety belt stretches slightly to slow your body down and
to increase its stopping distance.
The difference between the belted person's stopping distance and the unbelted person's
stopping distance is significant. It's often the difference between life and death.

Croatia's Cupic loses finger July 25, 2008, AFP
Croatian handball player Ivan Cupic has been forced out of the Olympics after losing a
finger in a freak accident involving his wedding ring.
Cupic, 22, was at a training camp in the coastal town of Rijeka when he tripped and
caught a wire fence with his wedding ring which sheared off his finger as he fell.
"We took him to the hospital in Rijeka, where unfortunately I had to amputate two-thirds
of the finger," said the squad doctor and surgeon Mladen Miskulin.
"Of course he cannot play with such an injury."
Defending champions Croatia are amongst the gold medal favorites in Beijing.
This news article highlights the dangers of wearing jewelry while at work and around
moving equipment. Although the Croatian handball player was not around machinery at
the time, each year there are similar industrial injuries throughout the country that aren t
as well publicized. The only reason we heard about this one is because of his rating as
one of the top Olympic athletes at Beijing.
Such an injury and the amputation of two-thirds of a finger is tragic, even more so for an
Olympic Handball athlete.
How about you?
Today before you go out to work, ensure you have all your jewelry removed.

Got Water?
Safety Toolbox Talk Webmaster
General
In summer weather and other hot, humid working conditions, drinking enough water is
vital to preventing heat illness. The most serious illness, heat stroke, can be fatal. It
occurs when the body’s cooling system fails because of moisture and minerals lost to
sweating. To prevent heat illness under hot work conditions
•Wear clothing that allows air circulation
•If possible, try to stay out of the sun
•Take breaks when you can and drink water frequently.
Don’t drink a large quantity of water at once, just keep on sipping. Drinking enough
water helps keep the body’s digestive and elimination systems working properly. What is
enough water? Eight glasses (eight fluid ounces or about .25 of a liter each) is probably
as good a starting point as any. Drinking other beverages and eating waterlogged produce
such as lettuce also supplies some of your water requirements. Then adjust your water
intake for what seems right for you.
Clear urine, a regular digestive system and supple skin are signs of adequate fluid intake.
Headache can be a sign of dehydration, so try drinking water before you pop a pill.
Now, about that old water bottle. If it’s just an old soft-drink container, replace it with
one intended for repeated use. Maybe you should get two so one can go in the dishwasher
every so often. Try not to handle the bottle, particularly the top, unless your hands are
clean.
Plenty of clean water to drink is a privilege enjoyed by workers in this country, with few
exceptions. So enjoy drinking your fill for good health.

Teamwork
Glenn Matthiesen
General
TEAMWORK
A "team" consists of two or more individuals engaged in an activity to reach a common
goal. When we think of "teamwork" it is usually in the context of completing a task or a
job together.
Working together on the job has many benefits; physically helping each other distributes
the work load, increases productivity and reduces the risk of injury.
Studies have shown that the effectiveness of a team increases with the social familiarity
of the team members. The more you know and like someone the more you are able to
trust and count on them. You get to know their skills, capabilities and weaknesses as they
get to know yours.
The key to working together effectively and efficiently is to offset the weaknesses with
each other's strengths. One person may be able to reach higher or lift more; another may
be more agile or faster with numbers.
Whatever these differences may be; compatible individuals will invariably find ways to
work together that are mutually beneficial.
The same is true in larger groups. A team that continues to work together will eventually
develop an increased level of bonding. This can help team members avoid unnecessary
conflicts since they have become well acquainted with each other through teamwork.
When we work together in larger groups on more complex jobs, we can overcome
problems by sharing ideas from each individuals unique set of knowledge and
experiences. The more knowledge we share, the more we gain.
As we work together to take on greater challenges; the more capable and productive we
become.
Another positive benefit of teamwork is a healthy sense of competition among
coworkers. This helps in several ways by keeping everyone on their game, easing
tensions and creating a sense of community.
Especially in a camp work environment such as ours, teamwork goes a long way to
getting through the day and enhancing our quality of working life.
