ACCESS POINT MAGAZINE ALI & SONS MARINE ENGINEERING FACTORY ASMEF’s HSE Campaign Q1 2019 MANUAL HANDLING When one thinks of safety we always tend to think or give more importance to what appears dramatic such as falls, vehicular accidents, fires, and the like. What does not appear grotesque enough, is often not given that much of importance. However, all of us – even those with sedentary desk jobs – are subject to the risks of manual handling, as it is our bodies, or parts thereof, that are put under stress every time we carry out the slightest physical activity, especially if we do it incorrectly. While sometimes the possibility of injury is immediate, most often years of stress results in permanent damage that can be quite incapacitating. Studies have shown that over a third of all workplace injuries are related to manual handling. It is also proven that the risks of manual handling tend to be ignored, as the injuries almost always occurs only several years later. It is with this in mind, that at ASMEF ‘Manual Handling’ was selected as the HSE campaign theme for the 1st quarter of the year. Other than posters and banners highlighting the theme, Manual Handling is being regularly discussed at all the HSE meetings and tool box talks, as well as training sessions to maintain continuous focus. Worker participation is also actively promoted during the various activities included in the campaign, such as poster and slogan competitions, exercises and presentations. The increased focus has also been brought to the forefront when carrying out risk assessments and HSE Inspections, thereby contributing to a safer workplace and a more fit and healthy workforce. 18
