In this scenario, the obligations of the employer, Ritzy Printing (RP), towards its workers are questionable. RP has failed to provide adequate induction, training, and supervision to its temporary workers, which has resulted in an accident. The employer has also failed to take immediate action to preserve the accident scene and investigate the incident, and instead, prioritized the completion of a print run.
As a health and safety adviser, it is your duty to ensure that RP meets its legal obligations towards its workers. RP has a legal duty under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety, and welfare of all its employees, including temporary workers. This includes providing adequate training, supervision, and instruction on the work tasks and any hazards involved.
RP should have provided proper training and supervision to the young temporary worker who was injured, especially since they were asked to perform a task that was beyond their level of competence. RP should have also ensured that the accident scene was preserved and the incident was promptly investigated to determine the root cause of the accident and prevent similar incidents in the future.
RP's decision to prioritize the completion of a print run over the safety of its workers is unacceptable. RP should have suspended the use of the printer involved in the accident until the investigation was complete and the cause of the accident was determined. This would have ensured that the safety of the workers was the top priority.
As the health and safety adviser, you should advise RP to take immediate action to investigate the incident thoroughly, identify the root cause, and take appropriate action to prevent similar incidents from occurring. RP should also review its induction, training, and supervision policies to ensure that they are adequate and meet legal requirements. Additionally, RP should prioritize the safety of its workers over the completion of a print run and suspend the use of any equipment involved in an accident until the investigation is complete.
Based on the scenario provided, several employer obligations under Recommendation 10 of International Labour Organisation R164 -Occupational Safety and Health Recommendation,1981 (No. 164) could have been contravened. These include:
-
Providing a safe and healthy working environment: Employers have an obligation to ensure that their workers are working in a safe and healthy environment that is free from hazards that may cause harm or injury. In this scenario, the temporary worker was not provided with proper training and was not informed about the risks associated with using the grinder, which led to the accident.
-
Providing adequate training: Employers are responsible for providing their workers with adequate training to enable them to carry out their work safely. In this scenario, the temporary worker did not receive proper training on how to use the grinder, which resulted in the accident.
-
Ensuring that workers have the necessary personal protective equipment (PPE): Employers are responsible for providing their workers with the necessary PPE to ensure their safety. In this scenario, the temporary worker was not provided with the necessary PPE, such as safety glasses and gloves, which could have prevented the accident.
-
Conducting risk assessments: Employers have an obligation to identify and assess potential hazards in the workplace and take measures to eliminate or control those hazards. In this scenario, the employer did not conduct a risk assessment of the work that the temporary worker was carrying out, which could have identified the risks associated with using the grinder.
-
Providing adequate supervision: Employers are responsible for providing their workers with adequate supervision to ensure that they are working safely. In this scenario, the temporary worker was not supervised while using the grinder, which contributed to the accident.
In summary, the employer in this scenario may have contravened several obligations under Recommendation 10 of International Labour Organisation R164 -Occupational Safety and Health Recommendation,1981 (No. 164). These include providing a safe and healthy working environment, providing adequate training, ensuring that workers have the necessary PPE, conducting risk assessments, and providing adequate supervision.
Question 2:
As the health and safety adviser, your responsibility is to ensure that the company complies with the relevant health and safety legislation and best practices to prevent injuries and illnesses in the workplace. In the given scenario, it is evident that the organization lacks adequate health and safety management practices.
Firstly, the company's induction process is inadequate, and temporary workers are not given adequate training and supervision for the tasks assigned to them. This approach can lead to serious accidents and injuries, as seen in the scenario. Thus, it is essential to develop job descriptions for each task and provide adequate training, supervision, and information on hazards and risks associated with each task.
Secondly, the company lacks emergency response procedures, which can lead to further injuries or complications when accidents occur. Therefore, it is crucial to have an emergency response plan in place and train all employees on emergency procedures and first aid.
Thirdly, the company's management team, especially the MD, lacks an understanding of health and safety management and the importance of investigating accidents. The MD's reaction to the accident is inappropriate, and it is evident that the MD is more focused on achieving targets than ensuring the safety of the workforce. Thus, it is essential to raise awareness among management on their roles and responsibilities in ensuring the health and safety of employees and the importance of investigating accidents and incidents.
Fourthly, the company needs to conduct a comprehensive risk assessment of all its processes and identify all potential hazards and risks associated with each task. This risk assessment should be reviewed regularly and updated as necessary.
Lastly, it is crucial to have a culture of health and safety in the organization where employees are encouraged to report all accidents, near misses, and hazards to the management. This approach will help identify potential risks and prevent accidents from happening.
In conclusion, as the health and safety adviser, it is essential to ensure that the organization has adequate health and safety management practices, emergency response procedures, risk assessment, and a culture of health and safety. This approach will help prevent accidents, injuries, and illnesses in the workplace, and ensure the safety and well-being of all employees.
