You're setting up a new automotive manufacturing plant. What safety equipment do you need to get started?

La importancia del Equipo de Protección Personal (EPP) en entornos de fabricación, como la planta de automóviles, es crucial para garantizar la seguridad de los trabajadores. Proporcionar EPP adecuado y capacitar a los empleados sobre su uso correcto no solo cumple con normas de seguridad, sino que también contribuye a la prevención de lesiones y la promoción de un entorno laboral seguro.

Before getting started, a deep and early dive into the plant manufacturing processes and process equipment will be the basis for machine safety risk assessments and then job risk assessments. The risk assessments will help design a Safety Plan and importantly a Risk Mitigation Plan. Using the hierarchy of controls, the EHS leaders can now decide what risks can be eliminated, engineered, etc. and only after that stage safety equipment can be considered.

Personal Protective Equipment first! I will provide PPE first, including safety helmets, safety glasses, ear protection (such as earplugs or earmuffs), gloves, safety shoes, and protective clothing. The specific PPE requirements may vary based on the tasks performed within the plant. Then fire safety equipment second installing fire detection and suppression systems throughout the plant, including smoke detectors, fire alarms, fire extinguishers, fire sprinkler systems, and emergency exits.

In order to ensure the health of employees, it is important to be aware of potential dangers in everyday work and to protect oneself as best as possible if exposed to these dangers, in order to avoid avoidable accidents. A reassessment of potential hazards must take place for each work environment so that personal protective equipment (PPE) can be adapted accordingly. This includes helmets, safety shoes, goggles, hearing protection, gloves, and respiratory masks, tailored to specific tasks, minimizing accidents. Individual adjustments of PPE, even in small nuances, should be made possible for the workforce.

I would say personal protective equipment would be very important not only for safety, but compliance with regulations, protection from health and hazards, and of course, employee well-being. PPE minimizes the risk of accidents, ensures compliance with safety regulations, prevents exposure to harmful substances, and can boost employee morale!

Proper storage of liquids such as oil, paint removers, machining lubricants, solvents. Each type of fluid would need to be stored safely with safety instructions for proper use, storage and spills.

La mise en place d'une nouvelle usine de fabrication automobile nécessite une attention particulière à la sécurité pour protéger les travailleurs, les équipements et les produits. Voici quelques équipements de sécurité essentiels à considérer pour démarrer : 1. équipements de protection individuelle (EPI) : Cela comprend des casques de sécurité, des protections, des gants, des lunettes de sécurité et des vêtements de travail adaptés pour protéger les travailleurs. contre les blessures potentielles.

Install as many fire prevention methods as possible. Reduce/Control sources of ignition, reduce materials that provide fuel. Fire causes damage and while suppression is necessary it's better to prevent it starting.

With new technology being more present than ever, updated fire safety standards need to be executed. Not just from the health and safety aspect but from the infrastructure as well. With electric and hybrid vehicles the fire safety procedure is somewhat different, and the awareness and procedures need to reflect that. Trained staff and safety officials are key role in that but also equipment and safe space.

La prévention et l'extinction des incendies sont des aspects cruciaux de la sécurité publique et de la protection des biens. Voici quelques stratégies et mesures clés dans ce domaine : incendies : Sensibilisation du public, Normes de construction, Détection précoce, équipements de sécurité, Formation Extinction des incendies : Intervention rapide, équipements d'extinction, Planification des interventions, Coordination, Utilisation de technologies avancées. La prévention et l'extinction des incendies sont alors des processus continus qui nécessitent une vigilance constante, une collaboration étroite entre les parties concernées et des investissements dans des infrastructures et des ressources adéquates.

Machine must be provided with fool proof safety interlocking which doesn't allow to bypass the interlocks and guarding in any situations. And lock out tag out points must be highlighted with mandatory instructions.

The most effective machine guarding comes through our Safety By Design processes. As we design our internal process controls and establish our process flow we must also decide what exposures will our operators experience within these operational envelopes. Using our hierarchy of controls we start to peel away our processes and exposures. The Safety by Design process gives us the highest number of opportunities to eliminate & substitute risk. The exposures that are left must be broken down to manage risk. This incorporates our lockout procedures and any ancillary guarding required to access specific area where risk is present. Don't take shortcuts. Doing this work after it is built will lead to gaps and is more expensive.

Machine guarding and lockout/tagout are two methods of preventing accidents involving moving parts, electrical currents, and pressurized systems in the automotive manufacturing plant. Machine guarding is the use of barriers, covers, shields, or sensors to prevent access to dangerous areas of a machine. Lockout/tagout is the process of isolating and securing the energy sources of a machine before performing maintenance or repairs. You should follow the OSHA standards and guidelines for machine guarding and lockout/tagout to ensure compliance and safety.

I agree with the principles described. Design out as many dangers as possible, guard those remaining. Inform, instruct and train staff.

-LOTO it is the most important tool to secure every user from an unexpected risk during an intervention also it secures the machine itself from bad or accidental manipulation

It is really important to consider automation and process flow early in the design phases to reduce risks and injury potential. Often these items are left for the end which limits options and can cost more trying to retrofit. Early in a process conveyance systems and Adjustable work stations can be designed into the process thereby limiting lifting and awkward postures. Automating difficult or repetitive tasks will decrease injury and increase quality.

Set standards early for ergonomic activities around lifting, reaching and duration of activities. Identifying these standards before we begin the process of machine design and workstation set-ups does two practical things for us. First, our Safety By Design process will ALWAYS remove the greatest number of ergonomic issues if done correctly and early. Second, we will understand the gap in ergonomic risk exposure after each completion of a workstation or commission of a process because every station design was measured against those standards. This will positively impact our training and future process improvement within those hot spot areas. We can always manage what we understand. We must always set ourselves up to understand.

Positioning and clarity of labelling of controls is essential to comfortable working and prevention of errors. Adequate lighting, heating and air quality are necessary for health.

Je pense que les exosquelettes dans une usine ont leur place pour soulager la penibilité de l'emploi. Il est important que les ouvriers se soient plus en piteux état .

When setting up a new car plant, prioritize ergonomic and lifting equipment to reduce strain and fatigue. Provide adjustable chairs, desks, keyboards, and tools to create a comfortable environment that promotes proper posture and movement. Also, have cranes, hoists, forklifts, and conveyors for safely handling heavy materials. Proper training is crucial for the well-being of employees and productivity.

Spent time prior to machinery procurement ensuring safe design is built into the plant, reducing the requirements for additional guarding & PPE etc as far as is possible. Risk assessments supplied by the equipment manufacturer and the machinery operator should identify further requirements that could not be addressed at the design stage. Typically, this will include guarding, PPE, clear operating procedures.

in electronics plant ,temperature must be set in the right level to prevent damage of parts also to avoid any malfonction of testers during ICT or FVT testing due to high temperature levels

First aid, first responder tools and equipment are very important in a heavy machinery environment. Establishing a dedicated “nurse station” can assist injured employees who need attention from medical officials in an appropriate environment outside of production floor.

First aid training ought to be mandatory. It is crucial to emphasize knowing when it's safe to offer assistance, particularly in cases of injuries resulting from falls or similar incidents.

Avoir les équipements c'est une chose mais il faut aussi ajouter une formation a l'usage de ses equipements. Il faut aussi en avoir beaucoup pour limiter le temps de recuperation. Dans le budget de l'equipement il faut aussi prevoir le renouvellement de ces appareils

Before you get started and you hire your safety professionals it is critical you understand the complexity of the process that will be employed. Critical skills needed by those professionals must include a strong safety by design mindset. Complex electrical safety systems and how they integrate. The their foundational strength must be their ability to evaluate core processes with enough capability to help shape core PPE policies, IH policies, along with guarding, lockout, and the list goes on. All of these core processes must be built not borrowed so they reflect YOUR business, complexity and hazards. All core capability attributes within the business must support operational reliability. Safety can help or harm that attribute.

Here are a few things I would consider: 1: Thorough floor workflow plan or material movement plan 2: Good lighting 3: Break timings
