Safety at Work Industrial
Electrical
It is important to maintain work safety and efficiency
in industrial environments. In this context, safety at
work involves preventing accidents and risks related
to electrical systems and electrical equipment in the
workplace. The purpose of this presentation is to
convey information about the importance of safety in
the electrical industry environment and the steps that
can be taken to achieve work safety.
Introduction
•Safety at work is crucial for employees and employers.
This is because a safe work environment can minimize the risk of injuries on the job,
which can have serious consequences for both parties. Employers have a duty to
provide the right conditions for their staff, and it is their moral responsibility to ensure
that their employees are safe. Workplace safety is important regardless of the size of the
company or the industry it is in. If employers do not provide a safe work environment,
they risk losing their business, reputation, customers, investors, and overall revenue.
On the other hand, a safe work environment can increase productivity, efficiency, and
employee loyalty. Therefore, it is essential to address safety concerns in the workplace
to ensure the well-being of all individuals involved.
•Industrial electrical safety involves various risks and hazards.
This means that working with electrical equipment and machinery can be dangerous and
can cause injuries if not handled properly. Electrical hazards can include electrical
shock, burns, fires, explosions, and other related injuries. These hazards can be caused
by a variety of factors, such as improper use or maintenance of electrical equipment,
exposure to live electrical wires, and working in wet or damp conditions. Therefore, it
is essential to take appropriate safety measures to prevent accidents and injuries in
industrial electrical environments. This includes following safety guidelines, providing
proper training to employees, and ensuring that all electrical equipment is properly
maintained and inspected.
•This presentation will discuss the importance of safety and the measures
to take.
It indicates that the presentation will cover the importance of safety in the workplace and
the specific measures that can be implemented to ensure a safe working environment.
This encompasses various aspects such as the benefits of workplace safety, the
incorporation of safety management systems, the significance of electrical safety, and
the need for safety protocols and training. The presentation aims to underscore the
critical role of safety in enhancing employee satisfaction, productivity, and overall
well-being, while also highlighting the essential measures and strategies that can be
adopted to promote a safe and secure work environment.
Hazards in Industrial Electrical
Work
● Electrical equipment and wiring.
● Best practices for electrical equipment
safety include regular inspections,
maintenance schedules, employee training,
proper labeling, grounding, and wiring.
Routine inspections, maintenance, and
timely repairs or replacements of faulty
equipment help prevent accidents caused
by malfunctioning or outdated machinery.
Hazards in Industrial Electrical
Work
● Machines and tools
● Ensuring that machines and tools are
properly grounded and wired is essential
for preventing electrical hazards. This
includes following proper wiring
practices and maintaining electrical
systems in accordance with safety
standards.
Hazards in Industrial Electrical
Work
● Working heights.
Working at heights involves the risk of falls,
making fall protection crucial. This includes
using proper personal protective equipment
(PPE) such as harnesses, lanyards, and
lifelines to prevent falls and reduce the risk of
injury
Hazards in Industrial Electrical
Work
● Electrical hazards
● Electrical hazard in industrial settings can lead to
incidents such as electric shock, arc flashes,
electrocutions, fires, and explosions. These hazards can
result from faulty electrical equipment, damaged
receptacles and connectors, or unsafe work practices. To
prevent these hazards, it is essential to follow
manufacturer's recommendations, use equipment properly
designed for the task, and maintain electrical systems in
good condition
Electrical Safety Measures
•Proper maintenance of electrical equipment.
Is essential for ensuring that electrical systems and equipment are
kept in good working order. Electrical maintenance involves
inspecting, testing, and repairing electrical equipment as
necessary to prevent problems that could lead to a loss of power
or an electrical fire. Regular maintenance and following best
practices can keep the business running smoothly and the people
safe.
Electrical Safety Measures
• Use of safety equipment, such as gloves and goggles.
Is essential in industrial workplaces to protect workers from
potential hazards. Personal protective equipment (PPE) is
equipment worn to minimize exposure to hazards that cause
serious workplace injuries and illnesses. PPE includes items such
as gloves, safety glasses, shoes, earplugs or muffs, hard hats,
respirators, coveralls, vests, and full-body suits.
Electrical Safety Measures
•Following safety procedures and guidelines.
.Employers must comply with safety regulations and standards set by
regulatory bodies such as the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA). Failure to comply with these regulations can
result in fines, legal liability, and even criminal charges in the event of
an accident.

Electrical Safety Measures
•Reporting hazards and incidents.
Hazard reporting refers to the process of identifying, reporting, and
documenting potential health and safety issues in the workplace. It helps in
identifying and addressing potential dangers before they cause injury or harm
to employees or others, promoting a safe and healthy work environment,
whereas reporting incidents such as injuries, illnesses, and close calls, is
essential for investigating and addressing the underlying causes of these
incidents. This process helps in identifying and implementing corrective
actions necessary to prevent future incidents.
Safety Management System
•A systematic approach to identifying hazards and controlling risks .
Working at heights involves the risk of falls, making fall
protection crucial. This includes using proper personal
protective equipment (PPE) such as harnesses, lanyards, and
lifelines to prevent falls and reduce the risk of injury

Safety Management System
•Goal setting, planning, and measuring performance
Goal setting is the process of setting specific, measurable, and role-oriented
objectives that employees work towards while at the company. Planning involves
developing a roadmap for achieving the set goals. This includes identifying the
necessary resources, timelines, and milestones required to achieve the objectives.
Measuring performance involves evaluating progress towards the set goals and
identifying areas that require improvement
Safety Management System
•Integration of safety into the organization's culture.
Is essential for creating a safe work environment and ensuring the well-being
of employees. By implementing comprehensive safety measures, including
employee training, regular policy reviews, open dialogue, and recognizing
the value of individual responsibility, employers can create a safer work
environment and reduce the likelihood of accidents and injuries.
Conclusion
● Safety at work is essential for industrial electrical
work.
● Electrical hazards in the workplace can pose a significant
risk to employees' safety and well-being. Therefore, it is
crucial to ensure that electrical work in the workplace is
conducted safely. Employers must provide comprehensive
training on electrical hazards and how to protect against
them, so everyone can stay safe while working with
electricity.
Conclusion
● Implementing these measures can help prevent
accidents and injuries.
● Is crucial for maintaining a safe and healthy work
environment. By implementing comprehensive safety
measures, including employee training, regular
