Assessment
Task 1
Written Questions
1. Briefly describe the obligation of managers and business owners in terms of occupational health and safety.
· increase the effectiveness of occupational safety and health protection are planned, measured, structured and integrated
· prevent and reduce occupational accidents and occupational diseases involving elements of management, workers / laborers, and / or unions / labour unions;
· creating a workplace that is safe, convenient, and efficient way to boost productivity
2. Describe at least two responsibilities Health and Safety (WHS) of workers in the workplace.
·
Checking health agencies, mental
condition and physical abilities of the workforce that will be received or will
be transferred in accordance with nature - the nature of the work assigned to
it.
·
Checking all the labour was under
his leadership, regularly on doctor designated by the Employers and approved by
the Director
3. Identify and document title and date of the Act and Regulations WHS / OHS for the state where you reside.
OHS legislation recently came into force on January 1,
2012 in five of the nine jurisdictions - The Commonwealth, NT, Queensland, NSW
and the ACT. OHS legislation recently in Tasmania will not begin until January
1, 2013. South Australia is now postponed until February 14, 2012. Victoria and
WA have not introduced this law to their parliaments, and has asked for a delay
in the implementation of new legislation in their country. ,
So what does that mean to you and how it affects you a
business owner? First of all let us identify who should comply with the new
legislation. The new law refers to PCUB (people who are doing business or
businesses). So what or who is included in the classification PCUB? This can be
a company, sole trader, partnership, organization, or association of volunteers
(see Act for a full definition). The main obligation of PCUB is to ensure the
health and safety of workers and others who may be affected by the activities
of the organization in so far as it makes sense. PCUB only be able to meet
their legislative obligations if the people in the workplace contribute
appropriate to carry out their due diligence. These people are referred to as a
clerk.
Section 27 of the Act WHS thus puts an obligation to
conduct due diligence on these individuals, described as clerk. This means they
are required to take reasonable steps to support a culture of health and
safety, accountability, and the allocation of resources and the development of
appropriate policies. This due diligence requirements allows the clerk to
ensure that the PCBU use and apply the resources, policies, procedures and
practices appropriate health and safety while doing business or enterprise. If
an officer fails to carry out the due diligence requirements, they can be held
personally accountable.
4. Discuss the purpose of the code of practice and give
examples of codes of practice, including the title and its main purpose.
At the time of cleaning tasks, workers do not use
personal protective equipment and there is no supervision of the supervisor.
The need for control measures of accidents in the workplace to reduce the
incidence of accidents and deaths caused by work. So that no deaths due to work
it needs the participation of supervisors and managers in conducting
administrative controls such as setting a schedule regular cleaning of the
ship, as well as rotate officers to perform the activity.
5.
Health and Safety at Work Regulations
2011 states how to manage the risks to health and safety associated with
hazardous manual tasks. Create a list of two issues that must be addressed when
determining control measures in the workplace.
· The human factor itself is the cause of the accident include work rules, the ability of workers (age, years of service / experience, lack of skills and slow decision-making), work discipline, actions that bring in accidents, physical and mental incompatibility. The errors caused by the worker and due to unnatural attitude as too bold, reckless, did not heed the instructions, negligence, dreamy, does not want to cooperate, and impatient.
· Mechanical and environmental factors, the location of the engine, not equipped with protective gear, do not wear protective equipment, work tools that have been damaged. Mechanical and environmental factors can also be grouped according to purpose with a purpose. For example, in the company of the cause of the accident can be arranged in groups of materials processing, the engine driving dab lifter, fell on the floor and crushed by falling objects, use tools or utensils that are held with the manual (hand), stepped on or bumped goods, burns by objects incandescent and transportation.

details of the injury or illness
·
Estimating
the severity of the most serious injury or disease by assuming the worst case,
using the severity of the injury or illness that actually occurred in the past
·
Because
it is desirable to use common criteria to measure the severity of the injury or
illness regardless of their type, principally employers will use the number of
days of absence, etc., due to injury or illness as measurement criteria.
·
Even
if the existence of the dangers of not proven, if there are reasonable grounds
to suspect danger, the employer should attempt to estimate the risk of assuming
the danger based on those reasons.
8. Explain the purpose of the control hierarchy and each option are available from most effective to least effective. Give an example for each.
· The need for a combination of control, combining elements of hierarchy above (ex, design and administrative control): Building a good practice in controlling certain hazards are considered, adapting work to the individual (ex, to take into account the individual's physical and mental capabilities)
· Taking advantage of technical advances to improve controls: Using measures that protect everyone (for example, by selecting engineering controls that protect everyone around danger than using Personal Protective Equipment),
· Human behaviour and whether certain control measures will be accepted and can be implemented effectively: Basic types of human failure / human error (for example, a simple failure of action is often repeated, lapses of memory or attention, lack of understanding or errors in judgment, and violation of rules or procedures) and how to prevent it,
·

Occupational health and safety (K3) cannot be separated from the production process both services and industry. The development of development after independent Indonesia created a consequence of increasing work intensity which resulted in an increased risk of accidents in the work environment. It also resulted in higher demands in preventing accidents that varied in form and type of accident.
an effort to improve the technical, theoretical, conceptual, and moral skills of employees in accordance with the needs of work / occupation through education and training. Besides that, development can also be interpreted as preparing individuals to assume different or higher responsibilities in educational companies, organizations, institutions or institutions. Development tends to be more formal, involving anticipation of individual abilities and expertise that must be prepared for the sake of future positions. Development targets and programs involve broader aspects, namely increasing the ability of individuals to anticipate unplanned changes or planned changes. From this understanding shows that the focus of career development is an increase in the mental capacity of the workforce. Development is focused more on improving decision-making abilities and expanding human relations for upper management and mid-level management while training is intended for lower level (executor) employees.
