Interpretation of Analysis & Action taken
• Most of the contractor employees coming to work in steel works are between 18-30 year and they are new to industrial scenario. Hence contractor’s workers training is important.

Three days general safety training and specific training leading to certification of skills at professional institute for contractor’s employees are some of the actions taken to bridge the gaps.
• Large number of accidents occurs in the middle/end of B-Shift indicating inattentiveness/ carelessness. Hence most of task observation are being planned to carry out in B-Shift to observe compliance to risk control measures.
• Road is major Hazard area contributing maximum in major accident. Hence road safety has been focused during the year. We plan to control road hazard by “Calming of Traffic” and putting speed monitoring camera to control speed.
• Hazard of fall / struck by is being eliminated. Cases of fall are being focused through use of safety belt/ full body harness / use of net / use of permit for working at height.
