Similarly, organisations with several facilities report varying data when it comes safety performance across their different locations. Why such divergences? Culture? Where there is a proactiveapproachtosafetyyouwillseelowerratesofinjury;inothercases,theSeriousInjuryor Fatality(SIF)++rateremainshigh,evenoverthelongterm.
In the face of these realities, leaders in safety management have a proven solution for transforming a culture: the fostering of a climate at work that does not take safety lightly, rather thantheattempttoimplementanewculture.
Unlike the culture, the climate of an organisation can undergo change with near-immediate effect. Fresh systems and procedures, together with the appointment of new leaders, can mean that the workplace climate undergoes swift and production change. This contrasts with culture, where any evolution occurs over a longer span, sometimes well beyond the short term.

In addition, when it comes to safety, there are multiple cultures in the frame. Each worker has their own individual safety culture, as does every facility On top of that, headquarters too has a culture:inmanycases,thistrioisclashing.

The intercom market is witnessing a significant transition from analog to IP. Traditional analog systems feature relatively poor audio and image quality and limited functionality. For example, they cannot be accessed using a mobile app or networked management systems. Although analog systems are often a more economical option, more manufacturers and installers have recommended their customers shift to IP-based intercoms for their wider range of capabilities - including higher image resolution, mobile control, remote operation, and a series of smart functions.
• User-Friendly Interfaces
In residential applications, these advanced intercoms combine a better user experience with elegant design to suit any decor, as well as a touch-friendly screen for easy operation. Users can remotely open doors and talk to visitors by simply tapping the Hik Connect mobile app on their smartphone or tablet.
Hikvision's IP intercoms serve a wide range of scenarios including apartment buildings, single-family homes, and SMB offices.

How IP Intercoms Meet Evolving Security and Communications Needs
IP intercoms commonly provide a user-friendly screen with a clearly visible interface, simple touch interaction, intuitive operation, and multi-functional information display (e.g., weather, news, announcements, etc.). These easy-to-use features help get modern consumers accustomed to using IP intercoms since they operate very similarly to mobile phones.
IP intercoms let owners receive calls, play video, and open locks from anywhere through just a simple touch. For example, people often receive calls on their mobile devices for package deliveries or other services when they're not at home. IP intercoms, however, allow users to give temporary access remotely to those who need it, just using a simple mobile application. This is more convenient and much safer than manually giving out passwords or key cards.
• All-In-One Management
IP intercoms also offer opportunities for integration with other security systems, such as video and alarms. A unified control center ensures all-in-one linkage among various devices and systems and facilitates convenient device operation and management, improving security for businesses and home owners.

Why Should Businesses Outsource Their Security Operations Center (SOC)
SOCaaS enables security analysts to make a coherent effort to cover all cyber security risks and centralized threat surveillance abilities. Another significant driver has been the scarcity of cyber security skills, affecting companies of all sizes. SOCaaS enables you to take advantage of SOC resources without having to worry about employing qualified personnel. SOCaaS also allows for rapid capacity expansion at a much-reduced cost than establishing additional capacity in-house.
Why Outsource SOC ?
• Reduced Expenditure: Outsourcing your cyber security monitoring to expert professionals means reducing the cost. To begin with, acquiring an employee with the necessary cyber security skill sets is not simple and at times not feasible. Additionally, having an in-house security team would certainly require you to purchase all necessary security solutions, which may be at times, difficult to choose from, and increasing complications. A dedicated SOC partner will be equipped with all the necessary solutions and resources, and will be entirely responsible for the designated tasks, which is the security of your organization.
• Ceaseless Support: Outsourcing a SOC implies uninterrupted support. An SOC partner will constantly monitor the company network systems round-the clock, with realtime support, alerts and reporting, a viable way to ensure continuous support and service. They will also run checks for detecting anomalies in the network, mostly looking for preying malwares or breach attempts.
Bottom-line - Going in-house with security measures may not be an ideal tactic in today’s times, when bad actors are miles ahead in terms of technology and resources required to ambush any business today. Keeping that in view, the most appropriate strategy to rising cybersecurity concerns is to outsource an SOC. Go for a partner who is well updated with all security trends, threat detection and incident response tactics, and collaborated with all leading solution providers best available to ensure your cyber network is with the safest hands.
The journey towards digitalization and cloud solutions that enhance productivity gains, increase agility, and reduce operational costs has rapidly and continuously expanded security vulnerabilities for most businesses. Businesses must supervise their entire IT infrastructure to comply with security requirements in the current digital environment, and Security Operations efficient(SOCaaS)Center-as-a-Serviceisthemostwaytodoso.
Expert Talk
• Facilitates greater efficiency due to global visibility: Outsourcing SOC has the greater edge of broadening the scope of security protocols. While an in house team is constantly monitoring attacks launched against the parent organization, SOCaaS has direct exposure to a wealth of information from numerous customers around the globe. MSSPs gather and supervise threat intelligence from a wide range of sources, providing them with constant insight into major cyber attacks and evolving cyber-crime methodologies This data enables cyber securityservice providers towork more efficientlyagainstcybercrime
The Security Operations Center is a team consisting of cybersecurity experts and trained engineers, who are dedicated to performing advanced IT security operations. SOC services are aimed at preventing any threats to cybersecurity by early detection and response to any incident of hacking or data breach. It is a subset of cyber security that keeps a detailed real-time awareness of an organization's assets in order to avoid threats and attacks. Organizations at times may not have the necessary workforce to be dedicatedly working on thwarting cyber attacks, or their current resources may not be enough or may have other areas to take care of, like IT support. To address this issue, Managed Security Services Providers (MSSP) can be employed to uphold your company's security. Outsourcing SOC can help an organization enable:
• Enhances business productivity: Security is critical for every organization, requiring time and attention When there is a security breach, management must divert their attention to the operations of the SOC. This disrupts the business environment in general and distracts employees' attention away from their primary duties. With an SOC partner taking care of the affairs, both organizations and employees are completely focused on the core business processes without being distracted by security challenges.

Why isSOCaaSEssential?
A s w o r k p l a c e s b e c o m e more mobile and remote, cybercriminals are ramping up their attempts to access applications, systems, services, and data both on-premise and in the cloud from outside the company network.
Today, most businesses have made significant investments in on premise and cloud security monitoring systems to secure sensitive data, comply with an increasing surface of data protection regulations, and defend intellectual property and other confidential data. However, this has catapulted in an overwhelming volume of security alerts. It is exceedingly difficult for the majority of these companies, particularly the small and medium sized ones, to probe and evaluateevery alert.

audited Government buildings, premises of offices/ departments etc. It is, however, surprising that there is neither any progress nor any development in respect of action taken and report sent thereon nor the recommendations made by the Fire and Emergency Services Organisation duly noted for compliance and acted upon. Why fire safety audits are conducted, perhaps, needs to be adequately understood in that it is a mode or a tool to comprehensively assess fire safety standards in a building etc, find out and address inherent fire hazards and recommend how these hazards or shortcomings could be addressed. If the later part is not attended to promptly, the very purpose, time and resources put in to conducting such audits gets defeated.
During the last six years, an official number of fire incidents in Kashmir valley is put at 16000, last year alone as many as 2300 incidents of fire took place across the valley causing loss of property of over Rs 650 crore Since nothing can precisely be predicted about the timing of visiting of an emergency like fire breaking out, what levels of safety, security and preparedness are there in place must be got fairly known. It is often when a tragedy strikes, that things start moving as to where and at what level was sheer recklessness adopted which for example led to surfacing of a fire incident and how to reverse the same Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha in May this year duly highlighted the problem and desired that fire safety audit of Government buildings and other places visited by the people be conducted.
Fire Safety Audits of Government Buildings
Fire and Emergency Services Organisation, therefore, swung into action as a result of which the exercise of audit was conducted in nearly more than 200 Government buildings across Jammu and Kashmir. There are reports which follow such audits wherein areas of weaknesses and shortcomings that were noticed during audit are duly highlighted so that Action Taken Report (ATR) was sent to the higher authorities by the concerned authorities of the
Accordingly, such defaulting Departments have again been impressed upon to send ATRs to the concerned higher authorities at the earliest. Since, at the cost of repetition, calamites and tragedies seldom send prior signals and in order to prevent and protect against the destruction caused by fire, it is extremely important to have fire safety audits conducted and recommendations/ observations acted upon, addressed and compliance report submitted. Moreover, fire fighting safety gadgets and equipment installed mandatorily in the premises/ buildings prominently must be ensured to be in fire fighting worthiness so as to use them to douse the fire immediately it is noticed and thus preventing it from spreading and causing any damages. Safety of people must be given utmost priority and any complacency adopted in it must be dealt with sternly and suitably.
Taking any liberties with fire safety in Government buildings and even other places where people usually frequent like hotels, restaurants, shopping malls, cinema theatres etc is tantamount to the proverbial “Playing with Fire”. At many places across the country, we have been seeing how fire breaks out and within no time causes extensive damage to property and more so, results in loss of precious human lives too. In Jammu and Kashmir, there are lot many fire incidents taking place each year. Forest inferno especially in Jammu division causes extensive damage to forest wealth, other buildings including hospitals, offices etc vulnerability of which remains always lurking notwithstanding. Only in late March this year, we had a massive fire at a scrap store in Jammu’s busiest Residency Road in the heart of the city which claimed the lives of four persons including a child besides causing injuries to twenty persons including causing damages to the property.
It is not that only after there are instructions from the General Administration Department or from any side from the UT Administration or there are surprise audits and inspections carried out that fire audits are arranged but it should be a regular periodic practice undertaken by each Government department, schools and colleges etc. Importantly, points mentioned in reports must be attended to without fail and promptly. However, most of the departments and the Administrative Secretaries have not attended to and acted upon the recommendations made by the Fire and Emergency Services Organisation which means wherever security and safety shortcomings and lacunae were found remain unaddressed as on date to the peril of all.

said an officer. The guards will also ensure that the area around their offices is clean and that there is no scope of water accumulation that can lead to dengue. They will also ensure that no tree branch obstructs the viewing of signals. “The competition will help all 25 traffic guards to give their best,” said an officer at Lalbazar. Sources said the concerned ACPs have already sent detailed reports about their respective traffic guards for the first month of evaluation to Lalbazar. “The results are yet to come out. This will now be a process of continuous evaluation that will see surprise checks by officers from Lalbazar and hence the performance will have to be consistent. If required, feedback from motorists will also be taken,” claimed a source. Cops said the focus will be on signals since that is crucial for them to run the city through an automated signalling

Cops to Audit Traffic Signals, CCTV Cams
With the monsoon setting in, cops are worried about the future of traffic signals and CCTV cameras which receive a battering and are often found to be out of order. Now, to ensure all guards maintain their signalling systems, Lalbazar has organized a unique audit that will last all through the month. The best performing guards out of the 25 will be rewarded every month. Lalbazar sources, though, reminded that the final evaluation will depend on several other factors, too. “The rain and local nor’westers usually damage a lot of our signals and even the CCTV cameras. Fortunately, there has not been a major thunderstorm this year. However, it is still too early to comment on the weather. Given the scenario, we have asked all traffic guards to ensure that the entire traffic equipment they use, including the signals and the road cameras, are in a ready-to-use condition,”
equipment that can sense movement are all must-haves to ensure that anything out of the ordinary is detected.
Deny
Protect your building's perimeter with equipment that can detect trespassers. Surveillance cameras, motion sensors, and other security
When it comes to your business, you must ensure that every inch of it is protected. Many people ignore the outdoor perimeter of their establishment and focus on the inside. However, the outdoor security of your business is equally important. To protect your building's entire structure, there is a key security principle that you can use: The five D's. They are Deter, Detect, Deny, Delay and Defend. Each plays a specific role in securing your business' exterior.
optimal outdoor perimeter security requires planning. However, once you have the Five D's in place, you can rest assured that your business is safe.
by Arindam Bhadra
To keep your perimeter secure while letting authorized personnel come and go, you need to deny those who aren't supposed to be there. With a manned security gate at the main point of entry, anyone who isn't supposed to be coming and going will be stopped immediately. Another way to deny criminals entrance to your property is with card access. This is an added security measure that ensures that even when people are in the building they need to use an access card to get into certain areas. You can even have your employees scan their cards at the manned security gate.
The 5 D's of Outdoor Perimeter Security for Business
To defend your perimeter against intruders you will need the help of local law enforcement and your security personnel. This involves having a protocol in place for making sure a criminal is being watched during the time period after they've been apprehended by your security personnel, and the time law enforcement arrives
July 2022 - www.visionmediahitech.com24
Delay
A delay system should be in place in case something should go wrong with your security system and an intruder is able to penetrate the building's perimeter. This can be done through interior locking doors and barriers. By having a delay system you give your security team and the police enough time to respond to the intrusion and the criminal cannot get away
Defend
Creatingscene.
Deter
Your first line of defence is deterrence. In order to keep criminals away, you have to deter them from even thinking about setting foot on your property. To create a shield of deterrence, you need to start simple with signs. Put up signs that say "No Trespassing," "Property Under Surveillance," "We review CCTV footage Everyday", "Guard Dog on Premises" and "Security Personnel On Duty 24 x 7." You may not have a guard dog but the suggestion of one could be enough to keep criminals at bay Another line of deterrence is to have surveillance technology. Having CCTV security cameras visible will discourage criminals.

2. Keep Fire Extinguishers in Each Major Room
However, a routine check of the smoke detectors will ensure that batteries, which were disconnected for some reason, are discovered as quickly as possible It's good practice to purchase 10 year lithium batteries to use in smoke detectors Doing so means that replacement does not need to occur as often and it also reduces the probability or frequency of dead batteries in detectors.
3. Clear Brush and Debris From Around the Home
Fire Safety audit in a building is an effective way to assess whether fire safety systems are in place and are in compliance with National Building Code of India which clearly stresses on fire prevention, fire protection and life safety
6. Teach the Basics of Fire Safety to Everyone in the Home
Fire escape ladders should be placed in the secondor third-story rooms of the home. This is especially important for areas, such as bedrooms, that have only one means of entrance and exit.
Additionally, stress the importance of keeping smoke detectors in a state of active operation to everyone and be sure that extra care is always taken with interior fireplaces as well as external fire pits. It's also important to touch on general fire prevention and safety. Proper education is the building block to overall fire safety
July 2022 - www.visionmediahitech.com26
The first step in fire safety is creating a plan. This means that a detailed and systematic escape plan needs to be created for each room in the home. Consider the means of egress for each area in the house and have a viable back-up plan in place if the main route to safety is blocked by fire.
A jump from a second-story window or higher can easily leave a person severely injured or worse. Young children are especially reliant on a safe means to get to ground level and fire escape ladders will provide them with this necessary, secondary means of egress.
It is also important to review the basics of fire safety with every member of the household. Review your fire escape plan with children or elderly household members. Make sure that everyone knows the location of fire extinguishers and how to use them in the event of a fire.
1. Check and Maintain Smoke Detectors Regularly
Pmeasures.art4ofNational
Fire escape plans should include considerations for how each family member will be accounted for, a designated meeting place, and how young or old loved ones, who may require assistance, will get out of the house. A home inspection focused on identifying risks can help improve the overall safety of your home. Not only can a good home inspection help prevent accidents at home, but it can also even help inform the best plans in case of emergencies.
Clearing dead brush or other types of flammable debris away from the exterior of the home doesn't necessarily prevent a house fire, but it can help to reduce the amount of fuel that is around the
Hard-wired alarms can also feed to home security centers where companies monitor the home and can alert the appropriate first responders if there is a house fire. This type of environmental monitoring and connectedness is consistently one of the home security trends year after year because it works and makes a difference when it comes to protecting your family and your home.
Another one of the important fire safety tips for your home is to keep fire extinguishers in each major room. Many homes don't have any fire extinguishers let alone one in each room. However, taking this step can prove to be the difference in having some fire or smoke damage to a portion of the home or experiencing a total loss of the dwelling
Importance of for Your HomeFire Safety
in rural areas, where homeowners may be allowed to burn brush or leaves, it is important to keep the outside of the home clear of any additional materials that can ignite. Rogue sparks from controlled brush fires or even burning leaves carried by the wind can lead to house fires if they land on dry grasses or other flammable materials lying close to the home.
But ultimate fire safety starts from your home. New homes have the advantage of being constructed to the newest and most stringent building codes. Many of these codes serve to enhance the safety of the home and deter the possibility of a house fire. Even so, it is imperative to plan for the worst while hoping for the best, so that in the event that the unthinkable happens, everyone gets out safely! Here are several fire safety tips for your home that you can employ to help keep your loved ones safe in the event of a house fire:
Building Code of India covers the requirement for fire prevention, life safety in relation to fire and fire protection of buildings. The code specifies occupancy wise classifications and protection features that are necessary to minimize the danger of life and property from fire.
The moments it takes to run and grab the fire extinguisher in another room may be the difference in saving the structure or the lives in it or not. Additionally, depending on the severity and location of the fire, it may not even be possible to retrieve a fire extinguisher from another room, so it is important to have them placed throughout the whole house and readily accessible.
5. Place Fire Escape Ladders in Second-Story Rooms
With the increase in construction of high rise-buildings, new smart cities in plan and coming up of new industrial zones, fire safety continues to be a concern due to rise in number of fire accidents now a days. Fire Safety becomes very important and requires adequate measures to reduce the possibility of fire accidents and loss. In-adequate planning of the buildings & commercial area and lack of evacuation plan and insufficient monitoring of fire protection systems leads to major fire accidents which would have been avoided by just simply following the already in place rules and regulations and by timely auditing such systems.
Another consideration when you are designing your new home is to have your smoke alarms hard-wired. Smoke detectors can then be linked via a "daisy chain" system so that an alarm that is triggered in one room can trigger alarms in bedrooms where sleeping household members may not be roused by an alarm on a different level of the home.
Testing smoke detectors regularly should become part of your home maintenance regimen. As a rule, never remove batteries from alarms even when they are set off by cooking incidences that create smoke but offer no threat of a house fire. It is far too easy to forget that batteries have been disconnected and then alarms are rendered useless.

Fire extinguishers for school are indeed essential for installing all over the school to prevent fire accidents from the initial stage, and that can technically prevent fires from spreading.
Last but not the least, a fire sprinkler is an important part of any interconnected fire protection system, and make sure that the fire sprinkler system functions correctly, it can prevent fire accidents from spreading to another part of the school building.
A fire alarm system is compulsorily required to alert students and employees in case of a fire in a school.

Fire safety is especially important in schools, and the foremost reason for this is, schools pack in hundreds of children into a confined space, equipped with chemistry labs, technology workshops, and huge foot traffic jams as pupils move from class to class. Another big reason to take school fire safety more seriously is that schools pack with hundreds of vulnerable children- the potential loss of life and risk of injury is much higher than with most other kinds of fire.
This fire risk increases significantly in schools when you consider that school pupils are younger and less likely to act responsibly in an emergency. These are just some of the possible reasons, why the importance of fire safety has to be taken completely in school premises and regular fire drills should be carried out to make sure that pupils understand what they need to do and where they need to go at the time of fire
Principal causes of fires in school
Types of Fire Protection for Schools
Fire suppression systems are most important for laboratories, kitchens, and other hazardous places in every school, and that may function effectively to extinguish a fire.
There are different types of fire protection products such as fire extinguishers, fire suppression, fire alarms, and fire sprinklers that you need to install depending on fire prone zones in your school and classroom safety.
you may ask that what to consider when choosing Fire Protection Services in Schools? The answer is school safety and security. Fire safety majors in schools and protection services should be appropriately chosen to invest wisely and prevent possible harm for keeping students safe and protected on school grounds. In addition to this, schools should make careful decisions both when installing fire protection systems and scheduling maintenance, repair, inspections of these systems, and fire drill sessions.
When considering fire protection services, it is vital to fully protect your students (school safety for students) and staff by installing the appropriate firefighting equipment in the school and maintaining it properly. Install a higher density of fire extinguishers, sprinklers, smoke detectors, and several other fire safety devices in school premises and check that installed equipment more frequently to ensure they are functioning completely.

5. Conduct Regular Fire Drills
2. Provide Evacuation Information
Develop several fire drill scenarios to assist with evacuation preparedness. Have employees stand in front of different exits holding signs that state "Exit blocked – choose an alternative route." This will make your employees aware of the different exit routes from the building and make the the employees think about what could happen in a real emergency.
Fire Drills are for more than fires. Knowing the evacuation routes of a building will help in the event of a power outage, gas or chemical leak, or other emergency situation that can occur at the office. Fire Drills ensure that employees exit the building in a timely fashion and know their team's designated meeting area, which helps the rescue effort in the event an employee in unaccounted for during an actual emergency at the business.
1. Create a Safety Committee
Dofrequent.notactually
Create a safety committee. The committee should include at least one representative of each department of the business, and the group should name one representative from each department as the team leader. The team leader is responsible for ensuring his team evacuates the building, and he must meet team members at a predetermined location outside the building.
July 2022 - www.visionmediahitech.com32
Give special attention to the process of evacuating of any employees with disabilities or special medical needs. Wheelchair-bound employees might require assistance to exit the building, for example, while those with respiratory issues might be incapacitated by even modest quantities of smoke. Appropriate actions might include designating specific staff to assist in evacuating mobility challenged colleagues, or providing a breathing apparatus near the workstation of a staffer with respiratory problems.
aConductFireDrillatWork
Provide evacuation information to all employees before drills begin. Employees must know the evacuation path for their work area, and the alternative paths in the event an exit is blocked. Create evacuation signs and post them throughout the building. Employees should also receive information on how to report a fire and use a fire extinguisher, as well as whom to contact in an emergency.
3. Develop Fire Drill Scenarios
4. Pay Special Attention to Employees with Special Needs
Conduct regular fire drills, but don't overdo it. For initial training purposes, hold drills every two weeks for a short period of time.

Offering Guidance or Assistance
Why is Good ManagementGood EssentialManagement in the Workplace?
Employees need to know what is expected of them; having clear expectations helps employees do their job well. A good manager will convey his expectations and make sure employees understand them. He also will make himself available to employees, so they can have the opportunity to clarify any confusion they may have.
Communicating Company Expectations
A good manager will observe his employees, gather relevant data and evaluate employees objectively, regardless if a personal relationship exists. His job is not to play favourites or become friends with everyone. He is not a peer to his employees; he is a leader. He is there to identify employees' strengths and help them build upon them. Excellent management skills include being skilled at identifying areas that need improvement and is able to offer helpful solutions to employees while supporting them as needed. By being fair and objective, the manager will keep employee morale intact and also gain respect and trust.

Resolving Employee Disputes
One key impact of management on business success is more skilled and confident employees. Also, effective workplace management requires a supervisor to work side-by side with employees during an unexpected surge in business or an employee absence.
Employees can always benefit from a manager's guidance and leadership. For instance, if you own a restaurant, it's doubtful the workday will run smoothly without a manager's intervention. A good manager will monitor her employees as they work and offer suggestions to accomplish tasks in the most efficient and effective manner.
Training Your Employees
A good manager will strive to help his employees reach their full potential. He will encourage employees to engage in training or educational opportunities. He will be open to his employees' ideas and opinions relating to work. He will consider their suggestions that may help improve the workplace or job functions. In response, employees may feel more valued and invested in their roles.
An effective manager will extend an open-door policy to employees, making herself available to listen to and empathize with her employees in regards to disputes with other employees. She can offer solutions and help employees implement them, and she can discipline employees as needed. Her authority and guidance can keep employees functioning as a team.
Delivering Objective Judgment
For instance, if you want your small business to succeed, you need not only skilled or trainable employees, but also a good manager. An effective manager acts as a catalyst to mobilize employees, strengthen their skills and channel those skills to meet workplace goals.

Having their voices heard and their contributions acknowledged allows workers to feel valued and can lead to increased engagement.
Developing and implementing a successful safety and health program requires full participation, and when an organization decides to start on its safety excellence journey, it creates many opportunities for workers to get involved and add value. From getting buy-in on written safety and health programs to getting boots on the ground for safety inspections, a successful safety and health program incorporates workers at every level and from every department within an organization.

1. Improved Hazard Awareness. One key component of a safety and health program is a “find and fix” approach to workplace hazards, empowering employers to coach their teams on how to identify hazards they may not have recognized otherwise. This can lead to a heightened level of hazard awareness in the workplace and at home.
Consumers are also increasingly socially conscious. According to survey, 70% of consumers want to know how the brands they support are addressing social and environmental issues, and 46% pay attention to these efforts when making purchase decisions.
The “find and fix” mentality also enables employers to establish their appetite for risk and demonstrate a commitment to safety. When workers raise concerns over a hazard that’s been identified, it gives the employer an opportunity to move swiftly to correct the issue and improve the safety of the operation.

Hand injuries happen when workers wear gloves that are inadequate, damaged or incorrect for the application or they're not wearing any gloves at all In fact, a recent study found that 70 percent of hand injuries occurred because 'workers weren't wearing any gloves Today's industrial safety gloves are designed to keep workers safe when handling all types of surfaces and materials across a variety of environments For example, some of the potential risks to hands and arms include exposure to caustic liquids that can cause chemical burns, exposure to extreme temperatures that can cause thermal burns, abrasions, cuts and punctures that can happen when working with sharp tools and equipment with moving parts. In this article, we will take a look at the different types of protective hand equipment to suit almost any industrial need.
Cut-Resistant Gloves. Using lightweight materials, modern cut resistant gloves feature a variety of cut resistance levels, from lowest (A/A1) to highest resistance (F/A9). In contrast to older cut resistant gloves, modern gloves do not make a tradeoff between loss of dexterity and cut protection. Today's high performance materials are light, breathable and comfortable with a superior grip Cut-resistant gloves are ideal for any employee who works with sharp knives or machinery. In fact, high-end gloves have added features like water and oil repellent, sweat absorption and anti-odor and antimicrobial properties. Some gloves are even color-coded so users can easily see the level of cut resistance they offer
in the way, modern PPE increases productivity and efficiency. Most importantly, they are easy to wear from the beginning of a shift all the way until a worker clocks out and heads home.
Modern PPE Creates Innovative, Comfortable Hand Protection Options for Workers
Today, gloves are made from innovative, lightweight materials that provide protection, comfort and reduced hand fatigue, so workers are more likely to wear them.
Mechanical Gloves. Quality mechanical gloves are constructed from materials such as deerskin grain leather and spandex which have cut and slash protection to protect the hands while working

Prioritizing the Need for Safety Equipment
There are as many types of hand protection equipment on the market today as there are different jobs and applications and each one is designed to keep the user safe when used correctly. There are several options available that help ensure protection, comfort and adaptability to the workplace:
Available Hand Protection Offerings
When you consider that more than one million workers are sent to emergency rooms each year with hand injuries, it is clear that wearing protective hand equipment is essential to everyday work. In fact, working with sharp objects, heavy machinery or chemicals exposes workers' hands to serious dangers that can cause permanent damage. Hands can be a workers' most valuable tool, so using the right protection is vital to employees' livelihood and to your company's success. After all, choosing the wrong hand protection can put workers at high risks, create discomfort and bring additional costs to your company. Luckily, it has never been easier to select the proper hand protection for any work setting. There are many options available: mechanical gloves, cut-resistant gloves, chemical gloves, sleeves and more. Hand protection equipment has also evolved by leaps and bounds from your grandfather's heavy leather work gloves. Today, gloves are made from innovative, lightweight materials that provide protection, comfort and reduced hand fatigue, so workers are more likely to wear them.
Regardless of your line of work, safety should always be the top priority Every day, hundreds of millions of people work in hazardous environments, and rely on their safety equipment to get them home each night PPE runs the gamut from head to-toe garments, steel toed boots, hearing protection, hand protection equipment and more. Modern PPE adapts to changing needs and environments, which means no matter what job a worker is doing, adequate PPE exists. Instead of getting
Chemical-Resistant Gloves. Made from a material such as nitrile, chemical gloves protect the hands against chemicals, irritants or other potentially hazardous materials. Along with additional safety features, such as reliable cut resistance, wet and dry grip, sweat resistance, enhanced dexterity, and improved comfort, high quality gloves may also feature a scannable QR code directly on the glove Using this feature, workers can get all the glove specs easily, such as chemical breakthrough time and technical documentation.
Chemical-Resistant Sleeves. For any employee working with chemicals, it is important to use a sleeve in addition to chemical resistant gloves to protect against hazardous chemicals that can cause burns. With
on heavy machinery. Modern high-quality gloves are also reinforced at high wear areas for longer glove life.
Thermal Gloves. Designed for workers who regularly come into contact with surfaces hot enough to cause burns, such as in labs, foundries, or mills, thermal gloves offer protection by using materials such as Kevlar, a highly heat resistant material. Manufacturers today also bolster protection with features such as using a Kevlar and cotton outer shell and a cotton/poly inner shell to allow for thermal protection up to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. This “glove within a glove” approach offers cut and slash protection, as well as thermal protection. Electrical gloves. Hand protection is critical when working with electrical equipment, especially if employees are near exposed energized conductors or electrical parts. To protect workers against electrical hazards, insulated rubber gloves offer protection while being extremely flexible to make working with small parts easier. Some manufacturers also include RFID technology to allow for easy and efficient asset tracking so site managers can easily determine in real-time if workers are equipped with the right protection.
Extending Protection
innovative materials now on the market, sleeves can be found that are resistant to more than 280 chemicals including alcohols, chlorines, ketones, esters and more. In addition, nitrile provides superior solvent resistance while being comfortable to wear for long periods of time.
Cut-Resistant Sleeves. Using a blend of materials, like fiberglass and polyester fibers, to provide cut protection, cut resistant sleeves provide protection while being soft and comfortable. Many cut resistant sleeves are now manufactured with lycra to provide elasticity and longevity, and come in a variety of lengths to suit needs.
While PPE might be the last line of defense, it doesn't mean it is less important. PPE is an essential part of any safety program because we are all human and accidents are bound to happen – it is the thing that needs to go right when everything else has gone wrong. Having the correct hand protection equipment can be the difference between workers suffering a career ending injury and being able to work another day When workers take all reasonable precautions, operate in a culture of safety and have the right PPE for the right job, the risk of injury can be substantially reduced.
While gloves are critical for protecting hands against cuts, burns, abrasions, chemical substances or impact, it doesn't mean workers should neglect arm protection. Manufacturers today are making great strides in ensuring that high performance protective arm sleeves not only protect but also provide excellent fit and comfort. Arm sleeves are developed to protect against workplace hazards in the broadest array of applications From cut resistant sleeves to chemical, thermal and so many others, arm sleeves help companies meet the demands of regulations and the needs of their workers:
Thermal Sleeves. High-end manufacturers now offer cut-resistant sleeves made with Kevlar to provide cut and slash protection while also being heat resistant up to 900 degrees Fahrenheit. Kevlar is inherently flame resistant and is a great choice for workers in the glass and steel industries.
PPE is an Essential Part of Any Safety Program Safety should always be priority number one for both workers and managers alike. The key to keeping workers safe is to avoid injuries in the first place. To do this, organizations need to adopt a culture of safety This can be done by establishing cultural guidelines that empower employees to make the right decisions and build an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect. Consider that a worker is injured on the job every seven seconds in the U.S., according to the National Safety Council, and nearly all of those incidents, 98 percent, occur because of unsafe practices.
To establish a culture of behavior-based safety, organizations should integrate safety management into the company's core values. A systematic approach is necessary and will likely involve updating machinery and equipment or updating the work environment. In addition, it is important to examine work schedules and employee utilization to avoid workers being too tired on the job. Lastly, a full-featured education and training program is critical to teach employees - no matter how many years of experience they have - on how to perform their tasks in a way that reduces workplace hazards and prioritizes safety
PPE is the final line of defense when it comes to worker safety It is the fail-safe for when all other safety precautions fail. Hand protection equipment is one of the most important pieces of PPE because it helps protects workers' livelihoods their hands. Manufacturers are making strides in developing gloves and sleeves that are stronger, lighter, more breathable and more comfortable to wear than ever before.

Eye injuries can happen when you least expect them in the construction industry. The typical construction site is full of heavy machinery that can injure the eyes as well as less noticeable hazards like pollution and harmful light radiation. Construction eye injuries usually fall into one of the following categories:
The vast majority of eye injuries result from the scraping and scratching of airborne debris, like dust, dirt, and small pieces of rock and metal. These contaminants can easily blow through the air and land in workers' eyes. Dust and dirt are present in virtually all construction sites. These workplaces often have little to no shelter from the outdoors. Various activities can increase the spread of debris, including sawing, grinding, sanding, chiseling, and woodworking
Common Construction Eye Injuries
The construction industry is full of potential hazards that could damage or injure your eyes. Sharp objects and flying debris can easily send one of your workers to the hospital. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), around 2,000 U.S. workers sustain work-related eye injuries each day that need medical attention. More than a hundred of these injuries result in one or more days away from work. Site managers need to make sure their workers are taking the proper steps to protect their eyes on the job. Learn more about the most common construction eye injuries and what you can do to keep your team safe.
Impact and Penetration

Some construction crews use various chemicals in the workplace, including toxic chemicals like acids, fuel, cleaners, and gels that can severely damage the eyes. Exposure to these chemicals can result in permanent injury as well, such as blindness or even death. These fluids can easily wind up in the wrong place when they are being used or moved in the workplace. Chemicals can splash or drip into a person's eyes. They can also produce toxic fumes and mists that can affect the person's ability to see.

If there will be hot equipment or optical radiation in the field, the goggles should be designed to protect the wearer from these hazards. The material should be strong enough to withstand a blow or puncture to the face. The goggles may also come with a shade that shields the person's eyes from the sun to improve visibility
Construction professionals should keep this information in mind to keep eye injuries to a minimum.
Choose the Proper Safety Gear
Workers should also know what to do if they get injured in the field. They should never rub their eyes if they get debris stuck in them, or they could further damage the surface. Rubbing can make the problem worse as debris can scratch the surface of the eye. First Aid, in the form of eye wash or an eye patch is an important first step. In more severe cases, workers should wait for medical help to arrive, so a trained professional can safely remove the debris.
Employee Training
Optical Radiation
The manager should first conduct a thorough safety review of the construction site, including all of the equipment that will be used on the job. This includes airborne hazards and debris, falling objects, radiation, and pollution.
Eye protection that meets the American National Standards Institute/International Safety Equipment Association (ANSI/ISEA) standard for eye and face protection ensures protection from several common job hazards including impact, non-ionizing radiation, and liquid splash exposure.
Identify All Potential Hazards
Using this safety equipment, the manager should also focus on reducing their workers' exposure to these hazards. This may include restricting access to the
worksite during specific times, setting up tarps or dividers to block the spread of airborne particles, or increasing the distance between the worker and the hazard in question.
Eye injuries tend to be common in the construction industry. Everyone onsite should be wearing the proper safety gear, even if they are only stopping by for a few minutes.
All safety gear should be kept in a clean and secure location, aware from sunlight and potential hazards that could tamper with the effectiveness of the PPE. Employees should return this gear to the correct location at the end of their shift. Workers should also clean their goggles often as they can get quite dirty with constant use. It's best to use individual eye protection and avoid sharing to prevent the spread of disease as well as mucus and other bodily fluids.
Managers must choose the proper safety gear for the task at hand while protecting their workers from all potential hazards. Most workers in the construction industry wear safety glasses or goggles when they are onsite. The eye protection should fit over the person's eyes without leaving any gaps in between their face and the seal to stop small particles from slipping through the cracks.
How to Prevent Construction Eye Injuries
July 2022 - www.safesecuremagazine.com 43
Construction crews need to ensure that they are protecting themselves from all the hazards mentioned above. Use the following steps to prevent work-related eye injuries onsite:
Workers should remember to inspect and fit test their goggles before working in the field. If there is any space between their skin and the seal, particles can still get into their eyes. The goggles should come with an adjustable strap, so workers can easily fit the glasses to their face.
Before the crew begins working, the manager should spend time discussing the latest safety procedures so workers can protect themselves in the field. The entire team should be aware of these potential hazards and know what to do in an emergency
Some equipment may also produce optical radiation, including ultraviolet radiation (UV) and infrared radiation (IR). Exposure to any form of optical radiation can lead to permanent injury, including blindness.
Reduce Employee Exposure
There are several rules to keep in mind when cleaning a gas detector. Employees can either complete this process by themselves or drop off their equipment with a maintenance specialist that will clean their detectors before and after each shift.
It's Essential to Keep Your Gas Detector Clean to Work Properly
When in doubt, it may be best to just replace a potentially contaminated sensor, so workers can go about their job without worrying about air quality or putting themselves at risk.
OSHA recommends wearing gas detectors in the breathing zone, which it defines as "a hemisphere forward of the shoulders within a radius of approximately six to nine inches." Most gas detectors can give the most accurate reading possible when clipped by the wearer's lapel or an area on the person's chest, as long as it's close enough to be exposed to the air they breathe in.
Keeping Gas Detector Sensors Clean
It is easier to keep a gas detector clean rather than to get it clean. So it's a good idea to regularly clean your gas detector after each use rather than try to give it an occasional deep clean. However, for a completely clean gas detector, you will need to just replace the case altogether. Keeping the case free from debris is the goal of keeping gas detectors clean, but this can be tough for many industries.
If you work in an industry like mining, manufacturing, refining, or petroleum extraction, where gas detectors are needed to detect combustible, flammable and toxic gases and oxygen depletion, it's vital that these instruments' sensors remain clean. This will ensure that they properly keep you and your workers safe. Here are some tips on how to check for dirty sensors and properly clean and disinfect your gas detector

Tips for Cleaning a Gas Detector
it. Inspecting sensors often and making sure they are kept clean is crucial to worker safety.
However, having it in this area can also mean the device can collect various forms of debris over time, including saliva, dirt, grime, dust, and bacteria. These particles can clog the sensors on the detector, which can lead to inaccurate readings and workers may potentially breathe in harmful gases without realizing
Workers and crew members should never use disinfectant wipes and alcohol-based cleaners on gas detectors. It's also best to avoid cleaners with chlorine or silicones, as these chemicals could permanently damage the equipment. The sensors on these devices are extremely sensitive to various chemicals, including alcohol. Exposure to these products could ruin the sensors on the device, which could lead to inaccurate gas readings.
Workers and managers should also make sure their gas monitors and related parts are regularly and properly inspected and maintained. Gas monitors deteriorate over time, and the degrading sensitivity ranges based on sensor type and working conditions.
For a more thorough clean, workers can also use a mixture of water and bleach. It's best to use approximately 50 parts water to one part bleach. The CDC recommends using 5 tablespoons of bleach per gallon of water or 4 teaspoons of bleach per quart of water (approximately 20 milliliters per liter).
It's best to maintain a servicing schedule for all gas detection equipment. We recommend gas monitors be serviced and calibrated at least every six months to ensure they're still reading and measuring gas concentrations accurately. Teams and workers should only use detectors that are in good condition and functioning properly.
Use Soap and Water
Managers should train their employees to properly conduct a bump test, especially if cleaning procedures have changed.
Regardless of the industry or task at hand, anyone working with gas detectors should know how to properly clean, maintain, and inspect them. These tips will protect workers from exposure to hazardous gases so they can do their jobs with more peace of mind.
fully dry before it's used in the field. Always wash your hands after cleaning any of the instruments.
Avoid Alcohol and Disinfectant Wipes
Service and Maintenance
Before using a gas detector, a bump test is recommended to verify that your instrument will detect the target gas in a work environment. If the first bump test fails, a full calibration is required. Bump testing helps improve sensor response and makes the detectors compliant, but it's also helpful when your cleaning regimen changes.
These products could also cause the device to go into alarm mode. If the person tries to zero the device too soon, it may show readings that are lower than what is actually in the air. The damage may not be immediate or permanent. If workers use disinfectants to clean their monitors, it's best to leave plenty of room to identify any issues.
When bump testing, use a gas mixture that is intended to give a response - most manufacturers include tables with calibration gas mixtures that the sensors will respond to.
Instead of reaching for a disinfectant wipe, workers should use a mixture of soap and water to clean their gas detectors.
In other cases, the physical components of your gas detector, including the rubber, plastic, and bearings (in the case of a motorized pump), may absorb the chemicals in the cleaning products. These may even be some of the substances the monitor is trying to detect. This can lead to inaccurate readings that can put workers at risk. It may be easier and safer to just replace these components instead of trying to clean them.

It's best to use a clean damp microfiber cloth with eight to ten parts water mixed with one part dish soap, such as Dawn. This cleans the monitors without damaging the underlying components or sensors. However, it's important to remember that dish soap will only clean off everyday dust, dirt, and grime. It may not remove bacteria or viruses that could be living on the surface of the device.
Workers should continue to perform maintenance according to the product manual and company policy. They should also remember that viral agents can get trapped and clog the instrument's pumps or filters. Managers should include any accessories or auxiliary equipment in the inspection process since damage to these components can also affect the instrument's performance.

Managers and teams can use the same method to clean the docking station. The equipment should be

After spending almost 32 years in the CISF and the Indian Oil Corporation, Shri. Braj Kishore Ravi, IPS, DGP/Director, Tamil Nadu Fire and Rescue Services said "I have concluded that it is always better to prevent and prepare, rather than repent and repair At Tamil Nadu we have one of the largest and more well-trained fire and rescue service teams in the country, with over 355 fire and rescue stations, as compared to one of the largest populated States like UP which has only about 340 fire stations.

"Even in developed economies like the United States of America, more than 3 million people suffer injuries and other illnesses related to working in factories. Human life is precious, and we must recognize the fact that it is the quality of the workforce that determines the productivity of any industry. If we need to compete in the global marketplace and achieve sustainable double digit growth, then it becomes imperative for us to put a lot of focus on safety and security at the workplace".

Students would spearhead the development in the State and there is a lot of encouragement for Start ups to go global".
