1 Prevent Slips, Trips, and Falls Slips, trips, and falls are a major cause of preventable injuries and deaths on the jobsite. They can result in sprains, strains, bruises, abrasions, cuts, and broken bones, not to mention lost wages, out-of-pocket medical expenses, pain, and a poor quality of life. It s important for you to think about where slip, trip, and fall hazards exist on the jobsite and how you can control them. Slip, trip, and fall hazards are everywhere on the job. Here is a short list of some of the most common hazards: Wet, oily, muddy, or greasy floors. Holes, ruts, and uneven surfaces. Dry floors covered in sawdust. Loose tiles, brick pavers, rugs, or mats. Ladders, stairs, scaffolds, roofs, elevator shafts, and incomplete floors, stairways, and walls. Slips, trips, and falls are preventable. Follow these safe work practices as you go about your day. Wear the right shoe or boot for the job. Tennis shoes, heels, flip-flops, and sandals are not appropriate footwear on a construction site. Wear good work boots with slip-resistant soles. Keep footwear clean and free from mud, grease, and oil. Tie up your laces. If you notice a co-worker with untied shoelaces dragging on the ground, let them know. Follow good housekeeping practices. Clean up as you work. Reduce leftover parts, scrap, and clean-up time by taking only the supplies you ll need for the job. Dispose of NOTES: SPECIAL TOPICS /EMPLOYEE SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS/NOTES: trash and scrap throughout your shift. Don t leave the mess till the end of your shift or the end of the week. If you spill grease, oil, or another liquid, wipe it up immediately to prevent a slip hazard. Sweep up dust, chips, and shavings. Put tools, cords, equipment, etc., away when they re not in use so they don t become tripping hazards. Keep work areas well-lit. Walkways, halls, and staircases should be brightly-lit. Illumination is important in parking areas, for personal safety, and to prevent falls. Report burnt-out lights and dark areas. Lighting will be more important as the days get shorter. Stay on top of hazardous conditions caused by changing weather, like rain, sleet, ice, or snow. Even wet leaves or pine needles can cause you to slip or fall. Keep outdoor surfaces clean and dry. Use bright, adhesive, anti-slip tape or paint to help make steps easier to see both indoors and outdoors. Set up Wet Floor signs where the floor is wet to give workers a visual reminder to step carefully. Stay vigilant and focused as you walk around the jobsite. Don t look at your phone as you walk. Don t carry loads that block your view. Pay attention to your surroundings. SAFETY REMINDER Highly-polished floors can be slick, even when they re dry; watch your step. Foggy or misty conditions can make it difficult to see the path ahead; tread carefully. MEETING DOCUMENTATION: JOB NAME: MEETING DATE: ATTENDEES: S.A.F.E.

4 Cómo prevenir los resbalones, tropezones y caídas (Prevent Slips, Trips, and Falls) Los resbalones, tropezones, y caídas son la causa principal de lesiones y muertes evitables en la obra. Pueden resultar en torceduras, desgarros, moretones, abrasiones, cortaduras, y huesos rotos, además de los sueldos perdidos, gastos médicos pagados por usted, dolor, y una mala calidad de vida. Es importante que usted piense en dónde están los peligros de resbalones, tropezones, y caídas en la obra y cómo puede controlarlos. Los peligros de resbalones, tropezones, y caídas están en todos lados en la obra. Aquí le damos una lista corta de algunos de los peligros más comunes: Los pisos mojados, aceitosos, lodosos, o grasosos. Agujeros, ranuras, y superficies irregulares. Pisos secos cubiertos de aserrín. Losetas, mosaicos de ladillos, tapetes, o alfombras sueltas. Escaleras portátiles, escaleras, andamios, techos, pozos de elevador, y pisos incompletos, pasillos de escaleras, y muros. Los resbalones, tropezones, y caídas son evitables. Siga estas prácticas de seguridad en el trabajo durante todo el día. Use el calzado o bota correcta para el trabajo. El calzado deportivo, tacones, chanclas, y sandalias no son calzado apropiado en una obra de construcción. Use buenas botas para el trabajo con suelas antiderrapantes. Mantenga el calzado limpio y libre de lodo, grasa, y aceite. Amarre sus agujetas. Si nota que un compañero de trabajo tiene sus agujetas desamarradas y arrastrándose por el suelo, avísele. Siga las prácticas de la buena limpieza y mantenimiento. Vaya limpiando su área al ir trabajando. Reduzca las piezas sobrantes, desperdicios, y tiempo de limpieza al recoger solo los materiales NOTES: SPECIAL TOPICS /EMPLOYEE SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS/NOTES: que necesitará para el trabajo. Tire la basura y el desperdicio durante todo su turno de trabajo. No deje un desorden hasta el final de su turno de trabajo o para el final de la semana. Si tira grasa, aceite, u otro líquido, límpielo inmediatamente para evitar un peligro de resbalón. Barra el polvo, desportilladuras, y virutas. Ponga las herramientas, cables, equipo, etc., en su lugar cuando no los esté usando para que no se vuelvan peligros de tropezones. Mantenga las áreas de trabajo debidamente iluminadas. Las rutas de peatones, pasillos, y escaleras deben estar debidamente iluminadas. La iluminación es importante en las áreas de estacionamiento, para la seguridad personal, y para prevenir las caídas. Reporte las luces fundidas y las áreas obscuras. La iluminación será más importante al acortarse los días. Esté atento a condiciones peligrosas causadas por el clima cambiante, como la lluvia, aguanieve, hielo, o nieve. Inclusive las hojas mojadas o agujas de pino pueden causar que usted se resbale o se caiga. Mantenga las superficies exteriores limpias y secas. Use cinta adhesiva brillante antiderrapante o pintura para ayudarlo a hacer que los peldaños o escalones sean más fáciles de ver tanto adentro como afuera. Coloque letreros de Wet Floor (Pisos mojados) en donde el piso está mojado para darles a los trabajadores un recordatorio visual de pisar cuidadosamente. Manténgase vigilante y enfocado al caminar por la obra. No vea su teléfono al caminar. No lleve cargas que bloqueen su vista. Ponga atención a su entorno. SAFETY REMINDER Los pisos altamente pulidos pueden ser resbalosos, inclusivo cuando están secos; tenga cuidado y mire donde pise. Las condiciones nebulosas y brumosas hacen difícil ver el camino más adelante; camine cuidadosamente. MEETING DOCUMENTATION JOB NAME: MEETING DATE: ATTENDEES: S.A.F.E.
