Topic details for AWSHPP course

CE1: Identify the roles and responsibilities under the Workplace Safety and Health Act

The Workplace Safety and Health Act plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety and well-being of workers in process plants. Under this Act, various roles and responsibilities exist to maintain a safe workplace environment. Employers are responsible for providing a safe working environment, which includes identifying and eliminating hazards, providing necessary training, and ensuring compliance with safety regulations. Employees, on the other hand, have a duty to follow safety guidelines, report unsafe conditions, and participate in safety training programs.

CE2: Identify and prevent fire and explosion hazards at the workplace

Process plants often handle flammable materials and chemicals, making fire and explosion prevention paramount. To mitigate these hazards, employees must be trained to identify potential sources of ignition, such as faulty equipment, electrical issues, or open flames. Fire prevention measures include proper storage and handling of flammable materials, regular equipment maintenance, and having appropriate fire suppression systems in place. Additionally, workers should know emergency procedures, including evacuation routes and the use of fire extinguishing equipment.

CE3: Comply with safe work practices and control measures for material handling

Material handling is a core activity in process plants. It involves the safe transport, storage, and manipulation of materials and products. Workers need to be trained in safe lifting techniques, the use of mechanical aids like forklifts, and the proper storage of hazardous materials. This knowledge ensures the prevention of injuries due to lifting strains, falling objects, and chemical exposure.

CE4: Comply with safe work practices and control measures for mechanical and electrical works

Mechanical and electrical works are integral to process plants, but they come with inherent risks. Workers must understand the safe operation of machinery and electrical equipment, including lockout/tagout procedures to prevent accidental energization. Regular equipment inspections, maintenance, and the use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) are essential safety practices in this context.

CE5: Comply with safe work practices and control measures when working on specialized operations

Specialized operations in process plants can vary widely. Training should be tailored to the specific tasks and potential hazards involved. This may include working with specialized machinery, handling radioactive materials, or managing complex chemical reactions. Proper training ensures workers are equipped to handle these unique challenges safely.

CE6: Comply with safe work practices and control measures when working at Heights

Working at heights poses significant risks. Training in this area should cover the use of fall protection equipment, such as harnesses and guardrails, and emphasize the importance of proper anchoring and secure attachment points. Workers should also be aware of potential falling object hazards when working at heights.

CE7: Comply with safe work practices and control measures when working in a confined space

Confined spaces present unique hazards, including limited entry and exit points, poor ventilation, and potential exposure to hazardous gases or substances. Training should teach workers how to properly assess and prepare for entry into confined spaces, including atmospheric testing, ventilation, and the use of personal protective equipment like respiratory protection and harnesses for confined space rescue.
