HEAD PROTECTION – STANDARDS

Head protection is mandatory on almost every worksite operating in Australia and around the world. The risk of being severely injured by falling objects, restricted headroom or falling when working at height makes wearing a safety helmet an essential part of personal protective equipment

AS/NZS 1800:1998 Occupational protective helmets – Selection, care and use

This Standard sets out recommended practices for the selection, use and maintenance of occupational protective helmets meeting the requirements of AS/NZS 1801 for head protection in building work, construction, general industry, underground working, mining, quarrying, forestry, bush fire fighting, high temperature workplaces and other occupations with similar hazards.

AS/NZS 1801:1997 Occupational protective helmets

This Standard sets out the requirements for three types of protective helmets based on their intended use. It specifies requirements for occupational protective helmets to protect wearer’s heads from falling objects in building and construction, quarrying, shipbuilding, forestry and other occupations with similar hazards. These requirements include the construction and materials of the helmet shell and head harness, mechanical strength of the shell and finish of the helmet.

Specific additional performance requirements are given for occupational protective helmets used in high temperature workplaces and for bush fire fighters’ helmets based on industrial helmets.

Both Standards above do not cover helmets for motor vehicle users, pedal cyclists, horse riders and structural firefighters.

Requirements for such helmets are given in AS 1698, AS/NZS 2063, AS 2063.1 and 2063.3, and AS 4067, respectively.

TYPES OF PROTECTIVE HELMETS

Type 1 ABS Plastic Construction, Building, General, Industry, Mining and Forestry

Type 2 Polycarbonate

Type 3

Polycarbonate with Bush fire applications

High heat environments; foundries and smelters

High heat environments; bush fire and wildfire fighting

BUMP CAPS VS. SAFETY CAPS

Vented^

Cooling for high heat environments

Non-Vented^

Ideal for dust and chemical environments

Full brim^

Provides added protection from falling objects, sun and rain

Non-Vented/Full brim only^

*Type 3 is the helmet tested and approved in accordance with AS/NZS 1801 with reflective tape and chinstrap

• Bump caps are not tested in Australia and do not comply to any Australian Standard

• Bump caps are very effective against scrapes, and minor knocks

• Bump caps are often recommended for use in domestic security, police, transport and some trades

• Bump caps cannot be used in designated environments requiring head protection

HI-VIS HELMETS

• ABS fluorescent coloured helmets are designed to be used in low light areas such as forests, indoors or underground work

• In full sunlight, the life of a fluorescent ABS helmet may be reduced

• Polycarbonate fluorescent coloured helmets are less likely to be effected by deterioration under high UV light so are ideal for outdoor workers

• Damage caused by UV can be identified as the helmet will lose its glossy finish and eventually take on a chalky appearance

HELMET INSPECTION, CARE & MAINTENANCE

Naturally the material will age. Based upon industrial field tests, Australian and New Zealand Standards recommend in general terms, an industrial safety helmet/cap should be replaced every 3 years from date of issue, and the harness should be replaced every 2 years. Harsh conditions and/or rough usage dictate that a helmet may be replaced sooner.

Every Protector® brand safety helmet has an issue date sticker on the inside of the shell for wearers to record their name and date of issue. After 3 years, remove the helmet from use or earlier if the helmet has changed in colour or exhibits any signs of wear or damage due to impact or deterioration.

Month the helmet was manufactured i.e. April

Year the helmet was manufactured i.e. 2010

The material the helmet is manufactured from (i.e. A.B.S. Acrylonitrile Butadene Styrene)

If the sticker has not been used or has been removed, replace the helmet three years from the manufacture date stamp under the brim or peak of the helmet. In the centre of the stamp is the year with a directional arrow pointing to the month of the year in which the helmet was made.

Also under the brim or peak is a stamp indicating the material that the helmet is constructed from.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

When not in use, helmets must be stored in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight, heavy or sharp objects and chemicals.

• The shell of the helmet can be weakened by exposure to paints, paint thinners, adhesives and some cleaning agents. These may also reduce electrical resistance

• Ensure that any stickers or decals use a non-solvent based adhesive

• Extreme heat can reduce the strength of the helmets. Do not store or transport helmets on the front or rear window selves of vehicles or in direct sunlight

SAFETY TIP

HEAD PROTECTION

Serious industrial injuries can be prevented by wearing adequate head protection. Safety helmets contain an inner suspension, which provides space between the helmet shell and head. This space helps to serve as a shock absorber in the event of an impact. For duty stakeholders, AS/NZS 1801 provides the basis for appropriate selection.

SAFETY HELMETS

630 Type 1 Vented Safety Helmet

Safety Caps

• Type 1 vented, lightweight ABS material

• Short peak provides improved field of vision

• Six point suspension harness with adjustable pin lock

• 30mm slots for attachment of accessories

• Suitable for general industrial, construction and mining applications where danger exists from falling objects

Why are Safety Caps and Helmets so effective?

Harness stretches on impact Shell deflects objects and absorbs impacts Headband separates skull and shell of helmet and allows for cool air flow

All Blackwoods helmets are Certified to AS/NZS 1801:1997 unless otherwise specified

LOGO PRINTING

Protector® safety helmets have been designed to allow customisation with company logos and images.

This process allows for Protector® brand safety helmets to be branded with a logo on orders as few as 20 units. There are numerous logo positions and an extensive range of colours available, including the new larger logo and pad printing designs on the side of your safety helmet. Your safety helmet does more than protect your head. It represents you, your company and even your achievements. Our top quality logo safety helmet service is dedicated to putting your logo or slogan on your choice of safety helmet accurately and quickly.

Standards: AS/NZS 1801:3.2.5

High performance silver retroreflective 25mm tape – one strip on both sides – can be used for increase wearer visibility in areas where moving vehicles and headlights are present.

SAFETY – PPE

STEPS IN IMPLEMENTING AN EYE AND FACE PROTECTION PROGRAM

1. IDENTIFICATION OF RISK AREAS/TASKS

• When the need for an eye protection program has been acknowledged the first step is to identify the risk and document the areas and tasks where the use of eye protectors is required

• Employees or their representatives should be included in the survey, as injury data can help identify the hazards and high risk areas or tasks

• Keep in mind that a process or task may give rise to a combination of hazards and the eye protectors may need to be worn in conjunction with other PPE i.e. eye and respiratory protection

2. SITE SURVEY

• The survey needs to be documented and it is best to follow the “flow” of the processes on site

• If it is a manufacturing process, the survey should start at the point where the raw materials enter the process, and follow the process through the site

• It is important to use the same terminology in the site survey as that used in the workplace

3. SELECTION OF STYLES

• When elimination or control of the hazard are either not practical or have only reduced the risk, then PPE is required

• Agreement should be reached with all persons involved in the eye protection program on the type of protection needed and the requirements for wearing eye protectors

• In all work situations consideration should be given to the layout of work stations to minimize the risk of hazards coming from the side or rear

• If a face shield or hood is used, consideration should be given to eye protection once the shield or hood has been removed

4. DON’T FORGET SIGNAGE PROMOTION AND EDUCATION

• Before the use of eye protectors becomes mandatory, an education program should be implemented to ensure cooperation of the work force

• The educational program should be tailored as much as possible to the requirements, environment and culture of the organisation, to counter any resistance to wearing eye protectors

• Warning signs should be used to indicate areas where eye protection, or a particular type of eye protector is required to be worn

• The use of eye protectors should be written into work procedures, site induction programs and policy documents

5. PLAN FOR AN EMERGENCY

• Implement first aid procedures for eye injuries. Have eye wash stations that are easily accessible, especially where chemicals are used. Train employees in basic first aid

6. SUPPORT / REVIEW / DOCUMENT

• Management support is key to having a successful eye safety program

• Regularly review and update your accident prevention policies. Your goal should be no eye and face injuries or accidents

• Once your safety program is created, document and display it in the workplace and employee gathering areas

THE AUSTRALIAN/NEW ZEALAND STANDARD AS/NZS 1336:2014 – EYE AND FACE PROTECTION GUIDELINES STATE THAT:

“A workplace eye and face safety program should be introduced where persons are exposed to a recognized risk of injury to the eyes and/or face. The aim of the eye and face safety program is to protect the eyes and faces of persons through elimination or control of hazards and, where necessary, the wearing of eye and face protectors.”

SELECTION OF EYE PROTECTORS

AS/NZS 1336:2014 requires the hazards and risks associated with a particular task or area to be evaluated and the most appropriate type of eye protector selected. In the selection of eye protectors the following should be considered:

• The nature of the hazards and risks to the eyes

• The condition under which the operator is working

• The visual requirements of the task

• The condition of the operators eyesight

• The appropriateness of the frame as a safety frame

• The personal preference of the wearer for particular safety frames

COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER PPE

ENVIRONMENT

WHAT IS IMPACT RESISTANCE?

All eye protection is tested to be capable of withstanding impact from a specified weight ball without cracking, detaching or dislodging, breaking or coming into contact with the eye or the head. AS/NZS test requirements categorise impact resistance into four categories:

Low Impact

Tested full-face-on at 12m/sec

Medium Impact

Tested front-on, as well as side-on at 45m/sec

High Impact

Tested front-on, as well as side-on at 120m/sec

Very High Impact

Tested front-on, as well as side-on at 190m/sec

Safety spectacles provide low and medium impact only.

All safety spectacles in the Blackwoods range are certified to AS/NZS 1337.1 with Medium Impact resistance unless otherwise specified.

High Impact and Very High Impact is applicable to visors only.

Visors are the only eye/face products that can be rated to this level of protection. For faceshields and visors go to page 13.

FEATURES OF COMPLIANT SAFETY EYEWEAR?

Check to see that the spectacles are certified to Australian Standards – AS/NZS 1337.1 – Eye and face protectors for occupational applications or AS/NZS 1337.6 – Prescription eye protectors against low and medium impact. Certified products will carry the independent certifier’s logo on the packaging.

There are also certain markings indicating suitability for specific applications that you should look for.

WHAT LENS SHOULD I CHOOSE?

0 Clear lens, no colour film applied, this lens is ideal for indoor or low light conditions.

0 Blocks the blue portion of the visible light spectrum, creating maximum contrast enhancement, particularly in low light.

0 Serves the same purpose as the amber lens, yet allows visible light through the lens. Also helps reduce glare from artificial light such as halogen and fluorescent lights.

1 Serves the same purpose as the grey lens, yet allows more visible light through the lens.

1 Where sunlight and glare cause eye strain and fatigue. ‘Mirror’ coating reflects light, reducing the amount of light that passes through the lens.

2 “Mirror” coating reflects light, reducing the amount of light that passes through the lens.

2 A neutral density brown lens that provides true colour definition by fighting glare while enhancing colour contrast.

3 A neutral density grey lens with a polarising filter, that provides the perfect balance between comfort and protection. Also reduces glare at certain angles from shiny surfaces such as wet surfaces.

Photo-chromatic lenses adapt to the UV light intensity, darkening automatically in sunlight, then fading back indoors. Lens colour will shift the ocular category between 0-3. The rate of change can take anywhere up to 2 minutes.

LENS COLOUR AND OCULAR CATEGORY

Category 0 Clear/Amber lens

Category 1 Slightly Tinted Limited sun glare reduction and UV protection. Not Suitable for driving at night. Visible light transmittance of 43% – 80%.

Category 2 Medium Tint sun glare reduction and good UV protection. Visible light transmittance of 18% – 43%.

Category 3 Dark Tint High sun glare reduction and good UV protection. Visible light transmittance of 8% – 18%.

Photo-Chromatic Lenses adapt to the UV light intensity, darkening automatically in sunlight, then fading back indoors. Lens colour will shift the ocular category between 0 – 3.

SAFETY TIP

EYE & FACE PROTECTION

Every year thousands of workers suffer eye injuries causing pain or discomfort, and often resulting in loss of income and even blindness.

Such injuries can be prevented by following safety procedures, including wearing correct eye protection equipment to suit the job or task at hand.

Why is Safety Eyewear so effective?

Safety eyewear protects the vital parts of the eyes that have few natural defences, including:

• Cornea and lens: the primary focusing areas of the eye; they have few blood vessels and heal very slowly

• Retina: the lining at the back of the eye; it is mainly constructed of nerves and once damaged or destroyed does not heal naturally

Are Sunglasses the same as Safety Spectacles?

Whilst standard sunglasses provide UVA/B light protection, they do not provide the impact resistance protection that safety spectacles provide.

Major Types of Eye and Face Hazards include:

Hazard

Chemical

Burns from steam

Splashes from grease and oil

Vapours and dusts from processes such as spray-painting, laboratory work and general handling/mixing

Selecting the Correct Protection

Safety eyewear and faceshields have evolved to suit specific tasks, workplaces and associated hazards.

When selecting the appropriate eye protection, it is important to include the following:

• Risk/Hazard at hand

• Possible elimination/control of the hazard

• Safe work practices, procedures and/or training that could be implemented

• Appropriate eye and/or face protection for the specific application, and whether other Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is required

The table below explains the equipment markings under the standard:

Classification

BLUE LIGHT: A POTENTIAL RISK FOR YOUR EYES

Prolonged exposure to blue light can cause eye strain, stinging eyes and headaches. Blue light or high-energy visible light (HEV) is also 15 times more harmful for the structures of the eye such as the crystalline lens and the retina than the other colours in the spectrum.

THE WAVELENGTHS

THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH BLUE LIGHT

Aggravates age-related macular degeneration (ARMD).

Dazzle and visual discomfort (blurred vision). Strobe effect linked to the gradual fluctuating intensity of the light. Headaches.

Wavelengths are the basis of how we perceive the world. Two organs receive these wavelengths: The eyes receive light and the ears receive sound.

SAFETY TIP

CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF EYE AND FACE PROTECTION

Despite its strength, polycarbonate generally used in the manufacture of safety lenses is a relatively soft material and prone to surface scratching. Therefore, eyewear should be inspected regularly and replaced if showing abrasions or scuffing. Avoiding extremes of heat and humidity will help to preserve the life of safety eyewear.

Replacing eyewear in a protective casing when out of use will keep scratches to a minimum.

Following a simple and regular lens cleaning discipline will make the lenses easier to see through and will also make them last longer.

Lens cleaning is a simple process:

1. Rinse dust and coarse particles off the lens under running water.

2. Spray a small amount of cleaning fluid onto both sides of the lens.

Coverall 3

• Fits over most prescription spectacles

• Platinum coating – anti-fog and anti-scratch coating applied to both sides of the lens

3. Using a lens cleaning tissue, wipe the lens inside and out. Using a circular motion, do not scrub backwards and forwards.

4. Do not clean the lens dry. Allow the residue of fluid to evaporate.

5. Store eye protection in a clean pouch or bag when not in use.

THE FRED HOLLOWS FOUNDATION’S INDIGENOUS AUSTRALIA PROGRAM

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adults are three times more likely to go blind than non-Indigenous Australians, yet 94% of their vision loss is preventable or treatable. The Fred Hollows Foundation works to put an end to these alarming figures by focusing on education, screening and treatment.

The Foundation’s Indigenous Australia Program supports increased investment and access to culturally appropriate eye care services to remote and under-serviced Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. The Foundation is working hard to achieve the following:

1. Deliver surgery and medical treatment for cataract, diabetic retinopathy and the elimination of trachoma

2. Increase access to services for patients in remote communities.

3. Coordinate and improve outreach services so everyone who needs medical care gets it.

4. Provide training and support to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health staff.

How can you and your business help end avoidable blindness?

Blackwoods has been a proud partner of The Fred Hollows Foundation since 2008. To support The Fred Hollows Foundation, simply purchase any PROSAFE eyewear, face shield or related accessory from Blackwoods and 10% of proceeds from each sale will be donated to The Foundation’s Indigenous Australia Program.

HEARING PROTECTION STANDARDS

In Australia and New Zealand one of the major areas of workers compensation is industrial hearing loss. Hearing loss tends to occur over time, however is completely preventable.

Standard AS/NZS 1269.0:2005 provides an overview of the general requirements for occupational noise management. The series deals with noise as it affects hearing, but does not deal with other effects of noise. It also provides an integrated approach to establishing, implementing and evaluating an occupational noise management program.

See SAI Global for more information on AS/NZS 1269 Occupational Noise Management Parts 0 – 4 (Standards Australia).

AS/NZS 1270:2002 ACOUSTICS – HEARING PROTECTORS

This Standard specifies requirements for the design, materials, and performance of conventional hearing protectors. It also provides guidance on the general requirements for, and the physical and acoustic testing of, specialist hearing protectors.

Under Standard AS/NZS 1270, hearing protectors are tested across a range of noise frequencies where a SLC80 rating is mathematically calculated. The results are stated as Class which is determined by the SLC80 rating obtained. The test results are found on the packaging of the hearing protector.

SOUND LEVEL CONVERSION SLC80

SLC stands for Sound Level Conversion; it is a rating defined as the difference between the sound level of the environment in which the hearing protection device is worn, and the sound level reaching the wearer’s ears. The SLC value includes a correction to ensure that the stated degree of noise reduction is obtained on 80% of occasions hence the SLC80 rating.

For example, the sound level in a workplace is 104dB(A) (as an average over an eight hour period). The target “in ear” noise level is 80dB(A). To calculate the minimum SLC80 rating required for a hearing protector in this workplace would be: 104dB(A) – 80dB(A) = 24dB(A)

The result of 24dB(A) indicates that a SLC80 24dB(A) rated hearing protector is required which, based on the table to the right corresponds to a Class 4.

To assist with selection, the class and decibel rating for each hearing product has been included. ALL EARPLUGS & EARMUFFS IN THE BLACKWOODS RANGE ARE CERTIFIED TO AS/NZS 1270:2002 UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED

THE CLASS SYSTEM

Under the Standard AS/NZS 1270, there is a classification method for the selection of hearing protectors. Once the extent of the noise hazard has been determined by a noise level survey, the user simply applies this to the classification table below to select an appropriate hearing protector. The class system is a simple way to select hearing protection appropriate to the noise exposure.

Class SLC 80 Effective for use in Noise Up To...

1 10 - 13 dB(A) 90 dB(A)

2 14 - 17 dB(A) 95 dB(A)

3 18 - 21 dB(A) 100 dB(A)

4 22 - 25 dB(A)

PRO-SOFT EARPLUGS

• High attenuation level

• Non-allergenic and non-irritating

• Polyurethane (PU) foam

• Self-adjusting foam

• Ideal for high noise environments

• Suitable for use in noise levels

100 to 105dB(A): Class 4

• Certified to AS/NZS 1270:2002

• Rated SLC80 25dB(A): Class 4

HEARING PROGRAMME

FIVE STEP PROGRAMME

STEP 1 – NOISE SURVEY

Conduct a preliminary noise survey to identify any possible noise hazards.

STEP 2 – DETAILED ASSESSMENT

If the preliminary noise survey averages over 84dB over an 8 hour period a detailed assessment is required.

A formal noise survey should be carried out by an occupational hygienist or specially trained occupational health nurse.

The assessment will:

(a) Quantify the amount of noise to which employees are exposed

(b) Identify sources of noise

(d) Determine appropriate hearing protector needs

STEP 3 – CONTROL

Eliminate – if practicable, control noise at source

Isolate – where practicable move noise sources away from employees

Minimise – Provide hearing protectors or use enclosures to reduce the amount of noise emitted.

STEP 4 – HEARING PROTECTORS

If hearing protectors are being used as a control, you must consider

1. Staff education as to the need for hearing protectors

2. Define hearing protector areas with signage

3. Provide a selection of hearing protectors (not one will fit all)

4. Issuing hearing protectors to individuals and validation of the fit to the individual user

5. Cleaning and maintenance of hearing protectors

6. Training and education for people wearing hearing protectors.

STEP 5 - MONITORING

Monitor the health effects of noise in the workplace (hearing testing) and notify any serious harm (any signs of hearing loss).

An occupational hygienist or specially trained occupational health nurse should conduct testing:

(a) Before an employee starts work

(b) At intervals of no longer than 12 months thereafter

HEARING PROTECTORS

CONSIDERATIONS WHEN SELECTING HEARING PROTECTORS

Noise reduction is one of many factors in determining the best hearing protector for a noise-exposed worker.

1. COMFORT

Will the wearer be comfortable wearing the protector. Consider the conditions worked in, is it hot or cold etc

2. NOISE REDUCTION

Will the protector reduce the noise level enough

3. SIZE

Will the earplugs fit correctly in the ear canal. Not too loose or too tight

4. COMMUNICATION NEEDS

Are there audible warnings or alarms that need to be heard

5. SPECIAL JOB REQUIREMENTS

Is there restricted access or object that could limit size of the protectors

6. CLEANLINESS

Will the wearer be working in a hygienic or toxic area and need to dispose of the protector

7. COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER PPE

Helmets, shields, hats, glasses etc. All need to be considered

OVER PROTECTION

Wearing hearing protectors that block too much noise (overprotection) has a negative effect.

Overprotected workers typically compromise the fit of their protector by pulling the earplug out partway, or lift up the cup of the earmuff to hear instructions from co-workers, maintenance sounds from the machinery, warning signals etc.

Audiologists often see more hearing loss in workers who ‘cheat’ on the fit and wear time of their earplugs.

SAFETY TIP

WORKPLACE PROTECTION

Discomfort or irritation when wearing hearing protection can occur and can lead to removal of the hearing protector. This is commonly what happens with high attenuating hearing protectors which can be heavier and bulkier. You only have to remove your hearing protection a few minutes every day for the damaging effects of noise to accumulate. This is why 100% wear time is so important.

• Suitable for construction, light manufacturing, areas where nuisance noise is present and manufacturing plants with medium level noise

An example of reduced effective protection is removing your hearing protector for ten minutes during a total exposure time of one hour. The effective protection provided by a high attenuating hearing protector (30dB) is reduced to 8dB. This makes the effective protective value 22 dB less than expected, by wearing the hearing protector 83% of the time over one hour.

It is vital that every effort is made to encourage 100% wear time. This can be achieved through training and providing suitable hearing protection that is comfortable enough to wear all day.

EARPLUG USE, CARE AND MAINTENANCE

How to Use

Slowly roll and compress foam earplugs into a very thin cylinder. While compressed, insert the earplug well into the ear canal. Fitting is easier if you reach around the head to pull the ear outward and upward during insertion.

Disposable Earplugs

Reach around the back of your head and pull upward on the ear while inserting the plug until you feel it sealing. This may seem tight at first, especially if you have never worn earplugs.

Reusable Pre-Moulded Earplugs

Hold the large ends of the pods and swivel them to direct the tips into the ear canal openings. Firmly push and wiggle the pods into the ear canal until a snug seal is obtained. Pulling on the outer ear while pushing the pods will be helpful to most wearers.

Banded Earplugs

Care and Cleaning

Keep the earplugs clean and free from material that can irritate the ear canal.

Pre-moulded earplugs could last several months depending on the type and on your work environment, hygiene and body chemistry. They should be replaced if they shrink, harden, tear, crack or become permanently deformed. Wash them in warm soapy water and rinse well. When dry, store them in a carrying case.

Most semi-aural hearing protectors can be cleaned in the same way as pre-moulded earplugs. Since the band holds the tips in place to provide an acoustic seal, do not tamper with it otherwise the protection afforded by the device may be reduced.

SAFETY TIP

EARMUFF ATTENUATION

The attenuation of an earmuff depends upon a tight seal between the ear cushion and the head. Gaps provide an easy path for sound to penetrate the ear cup, thus reducing the amount of attenuation provided by the earmuff. Several factors contribute to the size of those gaps and must be considered when selecting an earmuff:

• Band pressure of the earmuff, head shape and head size

• Compliance of the ear cushion material (stiffer material creates more gaps)

• Thickness of any protective eyewear worn

EARPLUGS OR EARMUFFS?

Not all ears are the same.

Ear shapes vary from person to person. It is important to choose a hearing protection solution that:

• Suits your working environment

• Meets the protection needs of the wearer

• Encourages compliance and 100% wear time

Earplugs are best for people who work all day in noise and who have to wear other safety equipment such as hard hats, masks or goggles.

Earmuffs are easier to put on and take off, so they are more convenient for people who are intermittently exposed to noise.

It is a matter of personal preference and both will provide protection provided that they are worn correctly.

IMPORTANCE OF HAND PROTECTION

The hand is an engineering marvel containing a clever network of nerves, tendons, ligaments, muscles, blood vessels, skin, nails and 27 bones. Working in unison they allow us to help perform routine tasks to highly complicated precision movements.

Because of their tremendous versatility, hands are exposed and susceptible to many types of injuries during day-to-day activities. These include exposure to risks such as sharp objects, heat, chemicals that may result in injuries from lacerations and cuts ranging from minor to major if tendons or nerves are severed, fractures, broken bones from being crushed or falling and amputations, resulting in a loss of part or all of the hand.

It is important to note that a high portion of hand-related injuries occurs in the workplace. Without adequate protection, both minor and major injuries can have a serious impact on both the professional and social level. Attention to the various hazards in the workplace and the provision of the appropriate gloves for the various applications, minimize the risks.

The selection of the right gloves ensures effective protection and unambiguous performance of the work. Protecting your hands at work also ensures the continued execution of things that are important outside of the work environment.

GLOVE EVALUATION TRIALS

A practical trial is always recommended because mechanical test ratings do not replicate the real world.

Contact your local Blackwoods sales team for assistance in developing a hand protection program in your workplace.

HAZARDS RECOGNITION & ANALYSIS

A job-hazard analysis is a technique that focuses on job tasks as a way to identify hazards. It focuses on the relationship between the employee, the task, the tools, and the work environment.

Once a risk has been identified, this analysis should be used to evaluate the risk based on severity, frequency, and probability of occurrence. This component is critical to reducing hand injuries as it identifies uncontrolled hazards and allows for the implementation of procedures to eliminate or mitigate the potential of risk exposures.

SAFETY TRAINING

At a minimum, employers should provide hand care awareness and protection training to all employees on an ongoing basis.

Training should address the following:

• Tasks for which hand protection use is required and potential hazards of tasks

• What hand protection is required

• How to wear the hand protection

• Limitations of the hand protection

• Signs and symptoms of exposure

• Proper use and care of hand protection, maintenance, inspections, service life, and disposal exposures.

PRODUCT SELECTION & INDIVIDUAL FITTING

Offering employees glove clips ensures that gloves are always readily available and within close reach when work tasks require hand protection.

In addition, a hand protection wear policy for employees, contractors, and visitors when the work task or situation requires glove use will help reduce hand related injuries on your work site.

EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT

Identifying trends or patterns related to incidents of hand injuries in your facilities. The analysis of these trends helps to gain a better understanding of the types of hand injuries employees are experiencing and what behaviours or work tasks may be leading to those injuries.

FIT FOR PURPOSE PRODUCT SELECTION

GLOVE SELECTION - CONSIDERATIONS IN CHOOSING THE CORRECT GLOVE

PROTECTION, PERFORMANCE & FUNCTIONALITY

• GRIP – The correct grip should provide the user with more control

• Puncture – Industrial protection from large objects that pose a puncture threat (timber, metal fabrication) or fine sharp objects such as medical needles

• CUT – When assessing the cut-resistant properties of a glove, you must consider several keys areas, including: material of construction, basis weight, fabric construction and coatings

• IMPACT – Back of Hand impact protection is designed to scatter impact force energy away from the bone, helping to prevent and or reduce hand/finger injuries

FIT & COMFORT

• FLEXIBILITY – Glove should be unrestricting for the user letting them make a complete fist

• DEXTERITY – Should allow the user to perform each action without the need to take off the glove

• LINER COMFORT – Should be soft and smooth without irritating the user’s skin

• MOISTURE MANAGEMENT – Based on task and environment conditions the glove should be able to be worn for long periods

Flat Nitrile High abrasion and snag resistance, smooth finish, tacky

Foam Nitrile Gloves with a sponge coating (chemically foamed) are softer and more flexible than flat nitrile and perform well in dry and oily applications.

Polyurethane (PU) Is a lightweight, flexible, durable grip coating that features good abrasion and puncture resistance. This coating is incredibly popular and sufficient for a wide range of applications.

Natural Latex Is flexible, more resistant to abrasion compared to PU and nitrile, but has minimal tackiness. Natural rubber latex features an excellent dry grip.

Sandy Nitrile Is highly abrasion resistance. It’s also more elastic and form fitting compared to other nitrile coatings. It’s excellent in oily situations and very good in wet environments.

Neoprene The coating ensures a coating with a higher resistance to heat whilst providing a secure grip in wet, oily and dry environments to reduce slippage and tension in the hands.

DURABILITY

• ABRASION – Ensures the glove provides the same level of protection at the end of the shift as it did at the beginning

Less soft, so faster hand fatigue, “soapy” in wet environment.

Due to porous structure, moisture penetration is high, not as durable as Flat and Sponge Nitrile.

TECHNICAL TIP

HAND PROTECTION STANDARDS

International (ISO) and Australian/New Zealand standards help classify specific attributes of products and communicate the quality and protection levels of personal protective equipment. An understanding of numeric codes and symbols used for specifying protection levels ensures workers are issued with the correct level of protection for their task. Safety standards for gloves provide the user with a valuable guide in helping to identify the right level of performance for the task at hand. Matching the right product to the appropriate risk can also help with cost controls.

For gloves to achieve any of these ratings, they are required to be appropriately tested under the supervision of a third party registered certifying body. These tests determine their rated level of protection providing a useful guide for anyone responsible for ensuring the safety of workers.

TECHNICAL TIP

SEAMLESS KNIT GLOVES –UNDERSTANDING THE TERMINOLOGY

– GLOVE GAUGE

You may sometimes hear seamless gloves referred to as a “13-gauge” or “18-gauge” glove. The term gauge simply refers to the size and type of needles used in a seamless knitting machine to produce a glove. Traditionally speaking, and depending on the yarn, the higher the gauge a glove is, the thinner, more dexterous, and comfortable the glove can be. The lower the gauge of a glove, the bulkier and less dexterous it can be.

PRODUCT INSIGHT

WHAT IS SUPERFABRIC ?

– AS/NZS 2161.3:2005

SuperFabric® brand materials are new protective fabrics engineered for optimum resistance to abrasions, lacerations, punctures, stains and more, while remaining highly flexible. HexArmor® utilises variations of SuperFabric® technologies that are directly integrated into high performance products, including gloves, arm and body protection.

Cut Resistance

• Exceeds ASTM/ISEA and CE Level 5

• Won’t snag like typical fabrics

• Sharp hazards such as blades, razors, glass and wood are deflected away from the wearer

Puncture Resistance

• Guard plate configurations provide industry leading puncture protection from nails, slivers and wires

• Outperforms conventional materials such as cotton, leather and nylon, which generally perform poorly against puncture hazards

• Spacing between guard plates provides flexibility and maintains performance

Needle Resistance

• Layered guard plates arrest, trap and block needles and other hazards

• Products tested using actual 25 gauge needles to deliver highest levels of relevant protection

• Traditional woven products are easily penetrated by sharps and needles that push fibres aside with little resistance

Abrasion Resistance

• SuperFabric® material provides incredibly high resistance to abrasive surfaces

• Longer durability means better overall cost, without sacrificing performance

• Outlasts leather by 10:1

SAFETY TIP

ELECTRICAL GLOVES

Electrical gloves are given a class based on their voltage levels, ranging from Class 00 to Class 4, as the thickness of the glove increases, the higher the class becomes.

Glove Inspections

It is essential that electrical gloves are kept in perfect condition as any slight puncture in the glove could have fatal consequences. It is important that before each use, a visual inspection is carried out and punctures are checked via inflation test (roll test) of the glove. If a puncture or perforation is found, the glove is unusable. It is strongly recommended that Overgloves are worn with Latex Electrical gloves, to provide increased mechanical resistance. Alternatively, if dexterity is required, Honeywell’s Composite gloves are latex gloves with an outer layer of Polychloroprene, combining mechanical resistance and comfort, eliminating the need to wear Overgloves.

SAFETY TIP

CHEMICAL GLOVE MATERIALS

• Nitrile provides the best protection against bases, oils, many solvents and animal fats; also excellent resistance to snags, punctures, abrasions and cuts. Not recommended for use with ketones and some organic solvents.

• Natural rubber has great flexibility and resistance to many acids and alcohols, and is a comfortable choice for chemical and liquid protection. May cause allergic reactions and, in addition, should not be used when lubricants and/or oils are present.

• Neoprene is flexible with excellent chemical resistance to oily material, acids (nitric or sulphuric), caustics, large range of solvents (phenol, ethylene glycol, aniline). However, it is less resistant to snags, punctures, abrasions and cuts than nitrile or natural rubber.

INFLUENCING FACTORS IN SELECTING THE CORRECT GLOVE FOR THE TASK AT HAND

Comfort

Regardless of the application, look for a lightweight solution that incorporates suitable liner materials to ensure the highest protection is also comfortable, increasing the likelihood of continual wear and adherence to Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) policy.

Dexterity

Regardless of the task being undertaken, there will always be demand for a reasonable degree of dexterity. Bulky or ill-fitting options will often lead to removal, so it’s important to select a glove that permits the wearer to carry out tasks effectively, while still providing adequate defence.

Grip

Often the root cause of cut injury is not the most obvious one. Failing to select hand protection with suitable grip can lead to higher injury rates, as objects with sharp edges can slip when being handled — this is exacerbated in the case of wet or oil covered objects — resulting in a slicing motion through the glove. Insufficient grip can also contribute to other unwanted conditions including stress, fatigue and muscle strain.

Construction

Consider the overall construction, as well as the materials used. There are many available solutions, some of which offer specific additional features; consider latex or silicone free alternatives where allergies are a consideration, or an antistatic option if the environment demands it.

Glove Coatings

Cut resistant fabrics are constructed by rolling and twisting cut resistant fibres to deliver a material that provides suitable defence. When a coating is applied, the fibre’s cut resistance efficacy can be reduced. Most coated gloves will provide a higher resistance on the back of the hand than the palm, as those fibres may not be coated, so this needs to be considered when assessing potential options.

Designed for Duty

The most suitable length, fit and cuff style will all be determined by the application. Look for a manufacturer that designs hand protection solutions for specific applications and makes industry specific recommendations for each available alternative, simplifying the decision-making process. Duty level should also be factored in, as it will influence the longevity of the chosen solution. Cut protection gloves can be divided into three categories depending on the type and risk of danger the gloves should protect against.

TECHNICAL TIP HAND INJURIES CAN BE AVOIDED WHEN WEARING THE RIGHT GLOVE FOR THE APPLICATION

In the workplace, your hands are subjected to many hazards. A hazard is any energy that can cause harm. Injuries can be immediate like cuts, punctures and burns, or may happen over time, like Raynaud’s syndrome (white finger) or Carpal tunnel syndrome. The following injuries can be avoided by selecting the correct safety gloves for the handling application, and ensuring that these safety gloves are worn at the right times:

One kN is approximately equal to 100kg (1kN = 100kg).

Therefore 15kN is equivalent to 1500kg or 1.5 tonnes.

AS/NZS 1891 states the following requirements for anchorage strengths:

• Puncture wounds

• Cuts and scrapes

• Heat and chemical burns

• Hazardous substances that can irritate or be absorbed by the skin

• Extreme heat or cold

• Biological agents like bacteria and viruses

• Needlestick injuries

PERFORMANCE YOU CAN TRUST

• Gloves

• Eyewear

• Hearing protection

• Respirators

• Site safety

• Traffic management

• Spill sorbents

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION

RESPIRATORY STANDARDS

In Australia and New Zealand a ‘Duty of Care’ requires all stakeholders to be able to identify hazards in the work environment, quantify the risk and formally (in writing and action) put into place training and controls for the proper selection and ongoing use of respiratory protective equipment.

AS/NZS 1715:2009 Selection, use and maintenance of respiratory protective equipment

This Standard sets out the principles of respiratory protection, requirements and recommendations for the selection, use and maintenance of personal Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE) in the workplace.

AS/NZS 1716:2012 Respiratory protective devices

This Standard specifies requirements for respiratory protective devices (respirators) intended to provide, according to type, varying degrees of protection against atmospheres containing substances which may be harmful if inhaled; also, with certain types, to provide protection against atmospheres which may be deficient in oxygen. It does not give guidance on the selection, use and maintenance of respirators. This is covered in AS/NZS 1715.

The Standard also specifies requirements, performance and testing criteria to be observed in the manufacture of respirators.

TYPES OF RESPIRATORY PROTECTION

Air-Purifying Respirators

Respirators which filter contaminants from inhaled air.

DISPOSABLE

Single use, protection against dusts, mists and fumes. Applications include sawing, grinding, welding fume and bushfire smoke

Air-Supplied Respirators

Respirators that provide the user with clean air from a source independent of the ambient atmosphere, either via a compressor through a filtering system or stored as high pressure air in cylinders. Airline supplied systems shall be used in the following conditions; the ambient conditions are unknown, concentration of contaminant could be immediately dangerous to life and health (IDLH), oxygen content of the ambient air is below 19.5%, and confined, enclosed or unventilated spaces as per risk assessments.

Protection against dusts, mists, fumes, gases and vapours by using specific filters. Applications include painting, grinding, printing and mining

Higher levels of respiratory protection and/or where eye or face protection is required. Industries include chemical, petroleum, steel and pharmaceutical

Higher levels of respiratory protection and/or where head, eye, face or additional comfort is required. Industries include pharmaceutical, food manufacturing and foundries

HALF FACE RESPIRATORS

FULL FACE RESPIRATORS

POWERED AIR PURIFYING RESPIRATOR (PAPR)

RESPIRATORY HAZARDS

Your lungs are vital to your health – if hazardous particles reach the lungs they can damage the delicate tissue and cause illness. Your body has some natural defences against airborne particulate hazards but if the contaminant is in a large enough quantity and/ or made up of very small particles, these defences may be overcome, resulting in ill health and increased risk of diseases such as occupational asthma, pulmonary fibrosis and cancer. Gases and vapours are other types of respiratory hazards. As they mix readily with the air we breathe, gases and vapours are readily inhaled and may cause direct damage to the lung tissue e.g. acid gases. Other types (e.g. solvents, pesticides, mercury) can enter the bloodstream via the lungs and can then be transported around the body where they can damage organs like the liver, kidneys and effect the central nervous system and at high concentrations can be lethal.

FILTER CLASSES AND SELECTION

Under the Standard AS/NZS 1716, filters used in respirators are required to meet certain performance levels to achieve a classification – this then allows determination of its suitability for use against specific contaminants at various concentrations as explained in AS/NZS 1715.

PARTICLE FILTERS

Filters are tested for capture efficiency in the laboratory using a salt aerosol challenge agent. Under specified test conditions, the amount of these particles that break through the filter is measured which allows classification of the filter. Under the Standard AS/NZS 1716, there are three classes of particle filters.

CLASS COLOUR

P1 White

P2 White

P3 White

APPLICATION

Used for mechanically generated particulates e.g. dust, mists, flour and silica. This class of filter is suitable for relatively “large” particles (>1 micron) released in mechanical operations e.g. sanding, drilling, cutting, sawing and crushing.

Used for mechanically and thermally generated particles e.g. welding fume. This class of filters has a higher capture efficiency to be able to effectively filter the many sub micron sized thermally generated particles. The P2 is also the class of filter recommended for specific infection control applications e.g. H1N1 Influenza 09 (Human Swine Influenza), Tuberculosis (TB) or other infectious diseases, where they can capture biologically active airborne particles and aerosols under specified conditions.

Used for mechanically and thermally generated sub-micron particulates, viruses, bacteria and highly toxic materials e.g. Beryllium, radioactive particles. A P3 filter offers higher protection than a P2 filter however this is only achieved when the P3 filter is used in combination with a full face respirator*.

*NOTE: To achieve these high protection levels, any P3 filter must be worn on a full face mask or as part of a head-covering respirator. If P3 filters are fitted to any half face mask, this combination is graded by AS/NZS 1715 to perform only as well as a P2 rated filter on this mask. This is because the “weak point” of the half face mask respirator is the face seal, not the filter performance i.e. in practice most leakage on a half face mask respirator will occur around the seal on the face, not through the filters.

GAS & VAPOUR FILTERS

Gas/Vapour filters are produced specifically for use against various gases and vapours and are tested and marked accordingly. AS/NZS 1716 uses a code/colour classification system to identify the different types of contaminants these treated carbon grains will capture.

CLASS COLOUR

APPLICATION

A Brown Organic vapours with boiling points > 65°C

AX Brown Organic vapours with boiling points < 65°C

B Gray Inorganic gases

E Yellow Acid gases

K Green Ammonia

Hg Red Mercury

G Brown Organic compounds with low vapour pressure

There are also other gas filter types for other specified chemicals.

All gas/vapour filters are also rated for their absorptive capacity. In increasing capacity there are Class Aus, Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3 filters for example; A1/B1/E1 Filter ABE – The types of contaminants the filter will capture 1 – Represents the class of absorptive capacity

The higher the class, the higher and longer the concentration they are able to deal with when fitted on the right type of respirator. By combining the two types of filters (particle and gas and vapour), we can get combination filters like A1P2, BAusP1 or A2B2E2K1P3.

Increasingly popular, flat fold respirators offer design and packaging benefits over conical respirators. The individual packaging allows convenient and hygienic storage and transport. The respirators can even be carried in your pocket so they are on hand when and where you need them.

3M™ COOL FLOW™ VALVE

MAKES BREATHING MORE COMFORTABLE

The 3M™ Cool Flow™ valve is designed to release your hot, humid exhaled breath quickly, helping to prevent heat build up inside the respirator which can be a significant cause of discomfort to wearers.

The cooler thermal imaging shades of the picture on the left indicate how the respirator fitted with the Cool Flow™ valve expels the breath, together with its natural heat, more rapidly. As the hot exhaled air exists through the valve, the rest of the respirator remains cooler and more comfortable.

This makes Cool Flow valved respirators ideal for long periods of wear, especially where conditions are hot, humid or physically demanding.

RESPIRATOR FIT TESTING

Checking that a respirator, with a tight fitting facepiece, provides an adequate seal to the wearer’s face and is covered under AS/NZS 1715:2009 Section 2.6 which has long been considered best practice as part of a general Respiratory Protection Program.

Respirators with tight fitting facepieces include disposable respirators, half and full-face masks, including those that form part of a powered or air-fed respirator.

WHEN TO FIT TEST?

Fit testing should be carried out:

• Before the respirator is issued

• On all wearers of respirators with tight fitting facepieces where fit testing has previously not been performed

Fit testing should be repeated at appropriate times such as:

• If the wearer significantly loses or gains weight, has major dental work or sustains a major facial injury

• If a different size or model of Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE) is specified

• At least annually or when specified by the company policy e.g. during a health surveillance check

• Fit testing is in addition to performing a fit check prior to each use as a determination of suitable fit

FIT TEST METHODS

There are two (2) main methods of fit testing available:

• Qualitative fit testing

A pass or fail assessment of the adequacy of a respirator.

A qualitative fit test determines whether or not someone can detect various scents or flavours.

• Quantitative fit testing

An assessment of the adequacy of respirator fit that uses numerical measurement of the amount of leakage into the respirator.

Quantitative fit tests use a probe inside the face mask.

FACIAL HAIR & RESPIRATORS

The effects of facial hair or beards is a common issue wherever respirators are worn. Does it matter?

The answer is clear – beards are not acceptable if close fitting respirators are worn. AS/NZS 1715 Section 7.5.3 states “individuals with stubble, a moustache, sideburns or a beard which passes between the skin and the sealing surface must not wear a respirator which requires a facial seal.” This includes any close fitting respirators – full or half facepieces.

What is the problem with beards?

Close fitting respirators need to seal tightly to the face. Gaps in the face seal allow dirty air to leak inside the respirator. Respirator filters cannot clean the air leaking through the face seal. Even a day or two’s growth of stubble for some individuals can be enough to give significant leak paths for contaminants. Face seal leakage reduces the wearer’s protection. It is not true to say that hair is “very fine” and aids the filtering process. The size of particles that is most dangerous to the lungs is far too small to be caught by a few human hairs.

What is the solution?

Individuals who cannot obtain an effective face seal due to facial hair will need to wear a hood type respirator either a Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) with appropriate filters or an air supplied hood, which ever type your risk assessment or the situation dictates.

Every face is different.

A respirator can’t protect you if it doesn’t fit your face.

Why Validate PPE?

Every wearer is different – different shape of nose, ear canal, orbital area of eye etc.

Confidence in performance - For some PPE loss of protection is directly correlated with PPE fitting. The more poorly fitting the PPE, the greater the potential loss of protection.

Confirm your choice.

Comply with standards in Australia and New Zealand.

Regular training on the correct fitting and usage of PPE helps to prevent poor fitting. There are a range of helpful tool kits available from 3M to assist both the wearer and the trainer.

TYPES OF FILTERS

PARTICLE FILTERS

How do particle filters work?

A bed of randomly oriented fibres are used to create the filter. These fibres are treated to attract and capture particles as they flow into and through the filter material. Increasing the thickness and effectiveness of the filter material increases the filter efficiency at capturing particles.

How long do particle filters last?

As particle filters load up with the contaminant, they actually become a better filter. However, they also become harder to breathe through. The wearer will notice this increased load at some point, decide the restriction is too high and will then need to change the filter. This decision point will vary from individual to individual as some people are more sensitive to breathing load than others. So the filter should be changed when the breathing resistance becomes excessive OR if the filter is damaged in any way.

Situations where particle filters must not be used

There are several applications where particle filters should NOT be used:

• When the ambient oxygen level is not guaranteed to be > 19.5%

• For capture of gases or vapours

• When the airborne particulate contaminant concentrations are very high

• When Government Regulations require use of airline or other specific type of respirator for specific applications

Where practicable RPE shall be issued for a wearers exclusive use. Records documenting the issue of mask and consumables (filters etc.), and maintenance of the mask need to be established. Filters need to be marked with the date of issue and users ID. Non-personal RPE must be cleaned prior to re-issue.

GAS & VAPOUR FILTERS

How do gas & vapour filters work?

These filters rely on a sorbent material to ‘soak up’ the gas/vapour molecules. Typically a container of fine activated carbon grains is used for this. Depending on the chemical treatment of the carbon surface, this material will absorb different types of gases or vapours. AS/NZS 1716 uses a classification system to identify the different types of contaminants these treated carbon beds will capture.

How long do gas & vapour filters last?

Gas and vapour filters are rated according to their absorptive capacity. In increasing capacity, the class ratings are: Aus, 1, 2 or 3. This means we can have an A1 or a B2 or a multigas type filters like an A2B2EAusK1. The service life (i.e. how long will it perform) of any gas and vapour filter is affected by many factors – concentration and identity of contaminants, breathing rates, humidity levels, ventilation, temperature, type of carbon etc.

Situations where gas & vapour filters must not be used

There are several applications where gas and vapour filters should NOT be used:

• When the oxygen level is not guaranteed to be > 19.5%

• For capture of particles e.g. dusts, mists, fumes or fibres

• When airborne gas and vapour contaminant concentrations are very high

• When spraying materials (e.g. 2-pack paints) containing Isocyanates

• Where the contaminant(s) present cannot be captured by the gas and vapour filter

• When regulations require use of airline or other specific type of respirators for certain applications

• When the contaminant has poor warning properties

FALL PROTECTION

FALL PREVENTION

RISK ASSESSMENT PROGRAM

Before undertaking any work at height and confined space entry, it is always a good idea to develop a risk assessment program. The following relevant fall protection Australian/New Zealand standards may be used as a reference, and are recommended reading.

AS/NZS 1891.1 Safety belts and harnesses

AS/NZS 1891.2 Horizontal lifeline and rail systems

AS/NZS 1891.3 Fall arrest devices

AS/NZS 1891.4 Selection, use and maintenance of industrial fall arrest systems/devices

AS/NZS 2865 2009 Confined Spaces

AS/NZS 4488 Industrial rope access systems

Also refer to the relevant Codes of Practice relating to fall protection, confined spaces, managing the risk of falls at workplaces and preventing falls in housing construction published by the respective government workplace authorities e.g. Workcover and Worksafe.

HIERARCHY OF CONTROL WHICH SHOULD BE FOLLOWED:

1. Identify all of the immediate and potential hazards

2. Eliminate the hazard if possible

3. If hazard cannot be eliminated, change work practices and procedures to avoid exposure to the risk

4. If exposure to the risk cannot be avoided by changing your work practices, use engineering controls to contain or minimise the hazard

5. Always use personal fall protection to work safely at heights

UNDERSTANDING FALL PROTECTION APPLICATIONS

Fall Arrest

• Typically used to protect workers when 2m or more above the ground – steel erection, general construction, elevated maintenance and suspended platform work

• For maximum safety fall arrest systems are designed to limit the maximum arresting forces to 6kN or less

Work Positioning

• Hold and sustain the worker at a specific work location, limiting any free fall to 600mm or less, such as ladder, tower and pole work applications

Restraint

• Prevent the worker from reaching an area where a free fall could occur, such as in leading edge roof work

Suspension

• Supports and holds the worker without any possibility of a free fall while the worker is being raised or lowered

• Typical applications are confined space entry/exit and bosun’s chair, such as painting or window washing Rescue

• Designed to raise or lower the worker to safety in an emergency without any possibility of a free fall

• Typically used in confined space work or anywhere where a worker may fall or become incapacitated

HEIGHT SAFETY TERMINOLOGY

Fall Protection

• Overall industry and process of protecting workers at height

Fall Prevention

• Systems and techniques that eliminate the possibility of a fall to a lower level

• Most desirable method of fall prevention is to engineer out or modify the work plan to eliminate the hazard

Fall Arrest Systems

• Protect the worker after a fall from hitting the ground and/or obstructions below the work platform

• Passive systems require little or no personal involvement from the worker

• Active systems require the worker to actively use the system in order for it to be effective

• It is not always practical, cost effective or possible to employ passive systems, in such cases, a Personal Fall Arrest System (PFAS) is required

Personal Fall Arrest Systems (PFAS)

• Active fall protection methods that require the participation of the worker

Fall Restraint Systems

• Use lanyards or some kind of tethering system, measured so that workers cannot go beyond the edge where the potential for a fall exists

• Sometimes referred to as Travel Restraint Systems

Rescue

• Refers to the ability to retrieve or rescue an individual from confined spaces or heights and must always be a component of any fall protection program

THE ABCD OF FALL PROTECTION

The A,B,C,D of Fall Protection covers the fundamental requirements of every personal fall protection system. Use it as a guide when evaluating your fall protection requirements, however, always consult a fall protection specialist if you’re unsure of any aspect of fall protection or fall protection equipment.

A ANCHORAGE

Anchorage devices provide a secure point of attachment (to an existing structure) for the fall arrest system. Anchorage devices can be permanent or temporary and vary to suit the types of structure available.

C CONNECTOR

Connectors are devices that connect the full body harness to the anchorage system. They can be single products or multiple devices working together.

B BODY SUPPORT

Full body harnesses connect the worker to the fall arrest system. They are specially designed to protect the worker against serious injury in the event of a fall whilst also remaining comfortable to wear.

D DESCENT/RESCUE

Descent & Rescue systems enable the retrieval of an injured or incapacitated worker. In the event of a rescue, this equipment facilitates rapid recovery of the worker without endangering other workers in the process.

CALCULATING FALL CLEARANCE

• When setting up and using a personal fall arrest system, fall clearance is a critical issue

• Should a fall occur, there must be sufficient clearance below the user to arrest the fall before the user strikes the ground or any other object

• The user of the equipment must determine if the system will arrest the fall within the available clearance

• Some factors that affect the determination include anchorage location, type and length of connecting system (lanyard, self-retracting lifelines, rope grab), deceleration distance (the elongation of the decelerating device when deployed), worker height and movement of harness attachment element

FALL CLEARANCE CALCULATION CHARTS

To determine the required Fall Clearance add the appropriate factors together, this will give you the safe required distance (RD) below the working surface for work which is to be carried out where there is any risk of falling.

FALL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT INSPECTION & MAINTENANCE

Conscientious inspection of all fall protection equipment is essential to ensure product performance and the safety of the user.

INSPECTING FREQUENCY

• Equipment should be inspected by the user before and after each use

• Detailed inspections should be performed by a competent person every six months for webbing products and every three months for Self Retracting Lifelines (SRL’s)

• If there is ever any sign of an unsafe condition or if the equipment has been used to arrest a fall it should be immediately withdrawn from service and destroyed, or sent to an authorised service centre for re-certification. Inspections should be recorded in a centralised logbook that includes the serial number, date of purchase, dates of inspection, servicing performed and authorised signatures.

WHEN SHOULD EQUIPMENT BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE?

• Six monthly service and/or periodical inspection is due

• It has been involved in a fall

• Labels have been removed, are missing or illegible

• Excessive abrasive wear (furry or frayed surfaces) has occurred

• Broken fibres, tears, cuts, snags and splinters are present

• Weld burns are present

• Deterioration or stretching has occurred

• Loss of resilience, discolouration or visible damage is experienced

• Parts and mechanisms are not moving freely or are corroded

• There is reduction in cross-section of rope area or webbing

• There is excessive contamination not removed by approved cleaning methods

• It is more than 10 years old for AS/NZS certified products

INSPECTION GUIDELINES

Hardware

• Inspect hardware (including snap hooks, D-rings and buckles) for damage

• Check for distortion, corrosion, burns, cracks and worn parts

• Inspect mechanical devices for correct assembly and operation –such as SRL’s should retract and lock up

Webbing

• Inspect webbing for frays, cuts or broken fibres

• Check for tears, abrasion, mould, burns, heavy soiling or discolouration

• Inspect stitching for damage

• Inspect impact indicators (if present)

Wire and Synthetic Ropes

• Inspect for cuts, kinks, broken wires and fibres, corrosion, chemical contact and severely abraded areas

• Inspect impact indicators (if present)

Labelling

• All labels must be present and fully legible

If inspection or operation reveals a defective condition, remove the product from service and destroy it or contact an authorised service centre for repair.

Maintenance and Storage

• Most webbing and hardware items can be washed with mild soap and detergent, water and a rag

• Excess grease, dirt and grime should be removed

• Equipment should be left to drip dry out of direct sunlight

• Some hardware, if stiff or sticking can be lubricated – however, any hardware that comes in contact with webbing should be free from grease or solvent

• Additional servicing and maintenance should be performed only by factory authorised service centres

• Equipment should be stored in a cool, dry and clean environment that is out of direct sunlight

Refer to manufacturer’s instructions for complete details on inspection, storage and maintenance.

CORRECT HARNESS FITTING

Hold harness by back D-ring, ensure all buckles are undone and ensure there are no tangles in the webbing.

The positioning of the sub-pelvic strap is critical. Adjust the shoulder straps to ensure the sub-pelvic strap is positioned directly below the buttocks.

Adjust the leg straps so that a flat hand (not a fist) can be placed between the leg and the leg strap.

HARNESS SIZING CHART

Position chest strap across the middle of the chest, approximately 3 finger widths above the base of the sternum. Shoulder straps should be vertical, not pulled into centre of body.

The harness should be comfortable without undue pressure on the shoulders, thighs or pelvis. You should still have your full range of motion with the harness fitted.

Whether you wear a harness for 4 hours a day or 14 hours a day, proper fit is essential. The harness needs to feel good and fit right for optimum comfort, safety and productivity.

3MTM manufactures harnesses that are designed to fit most body sizes or shapes (S – XL) under the brands of DBI-SALA® and PROTECTA®.

SAFETY TIP

HOW STRONG IS YOUR ANCHOR?

It is important that the anchorage and the structure it is connected to is capable of withstanding the forces generated in the event of a fall.

Kilo newton (kN) is the measure of force and is commonly used when dealing with fall protection. One kN is approximately equal to 100kg (1kN = 100kg). Therefore 15kN is equivalent to 1500kg or 1.5 tonnes.

AS/NZS 1891 states the following requirements for anchorage strengths:

• 12kN for limited free-fall and abseil

• 15kN for 1 person fall-arrest

• 21kN for 2 people fall-arrest

REPEL™ Pole Straps

• Constructed from REPEL™ technology webbing

• Includes double action snap hooks for attachment to harness

• Easy and efficient adjustment system (easy adjuster), can be adjusted whilst working

• Latch Protection Device (LPD) on all hooks reduces the risk of unintentional tripping of the hooks’ locking gate

• 16kN Gate strength on all hooks removes the risk of accidental disengagement from excessive gate loadings

• i-Safe™ enabled to track inspection and control inventory

• Suitable for work positioning, restraint and assisted climbing

• Certified to AS/NZS 1891.1:2007

OUR FOCUS ON INDIGENOUS ENGAGEMENT

Blackwoods is committed to supporting Supplier Diversity and creating an inclusive work environment, with particular attention to the inclusion, recruitment, development and mentoring of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people within our teams.

In order for our own business to reflect the communities in which we operate, we actively work towards goals set by the Federal Government Employment Parity Initiative (EPI), which encourages organisations to create a workforce representative of the total Australian populace, where 3% of the population identifies as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander.

Our Indigenous Employment Strategy, as part of our Stretch Reconciliation Action Plan, is an important platform on which to continue to build a diverse workplace that better represents Australia as a whole.

PARTNERSHIPS AND PROGRAMS

As a truly Australian company, Blackwoods is focused on making a positive impact and contribution to the communities in which we operate. We foster and build strong relationships with a number of different Indigenous organisations and foundations, such as:

• CareerTrackers: Blackwoods provides internships for Indigenous university students helping to obtain valuable experience and knowledge across various areas of the business

• The Clontarf Foundation: providing Indigenous high school students with the opportunity to succeed through School Based Traineeships, graduate and alumni employment opportunities at many of our branches

• Australian Indigenous Mentoring Experience (AIME): bringing Indigenous school students together with university students and Blackwoods team members as mentors, education heroes and role models

• The Fred Hollows Foundation: committed to ending avoidable blindness and improving eye care of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. Look for our ‘Prosafe’ range of eye related products, where 10% of sales are donated directly to the Foundation by Blackwoods

With their help, we aim to support and provide disadvantaged Indigenous young adults to receive employment, medical treatment and education opportunities.
