 Why is PPE seen as the last resort in the workplace?

 

PPE, or Personal Protective Equipment, is often considered the last resort in workplace safety because it only protects the individual worker, and not the overall work environment or other workers.

 

Effective safety measures should always aim to eliminate or minimize hazards at their source, using engineering and administrative controls. For example, if workers are exposed to dangerous chemicals, the best approach would be to eliminate or replace the chemicals with safer alternatives, or to install ventilation systems to remove the chemicals from the air.

 

If these measures are not possible or sufficient, the next step would be to implement work practices and administrative controls, such as training workers on safe handling procedures or reducing exposure time.

 

Only when all other measures have been exhausted, PPE should be used as a last line of defense to protect the worker from any remaining hazards. However, it's important to note that PPE is not foolproof, and its effectiveness depends on proper use, maintenance, and training.

The National Shutdown - why do the privileged see the Unions as the enemy?

 

Some time ago, members of the public, political parties and now Union Federations in South Africa announced a stay away action or what we can call a National Shutdown.

The reason for these shutdowns is mostly due to the state of our economy – rampant fuel price increases, food price increases, electricity and other unaffordable increases but most importantly the youth unemployment.

Now we have heard numerous experts on Talk radio not in favor of any shutdown, question is: Are they going through the same challenges?

I believe one will only realize that there is crime / violent crime in this country once one is directly affected. Can we also say the same when it comes to supporting a cause?

Not so long we had a “so called National shutdown” but the attendance was poor, more so because the “so called middle class” will never participate in any action but also because of the taxi industry that ferries most of our employees, not taking part.

Whenever there is a call for an approved protest action or strike action – those taking part are always being criticized. Those secured in their comfort would blame Union bosses, and even pointing out their lifestyles, but they will never mention the lifestyles of decision makers, be it politicians or executives in the various sectors.

All protest action emanates from somewhere and it just do not start overnight, it starts as something small and is breeding for some time, before communities or workers are taking any action.

Why are we then seeing the Union bosses as the problem?

Was it not Martin Luther King Jr. who said: 'A riot is the language of the unheard?' So when are we going to hear our unheard? When are we going to listen to the most vulnerable? When are we going to listen to those not able to speak for themselves? Union federations might be in alliance with Government but if Government fail to even listen to their partner, what must we the poorest of the poor do?

I listened with disgust on TalkRadio how some of the learned claim that they will not partake in any strikes and that they will work for their families.

My question would also be to the ones not willing to attend the proposed shutdown:

Do you have reprieve on electricity payment?

Do you pay less for fuel and food?

Is your employment secured for your entire worklife?

Do you have unemployed family or friends?

Do you have pensioners in your family?

 

Who is not working for their families?

Remember there is no success without any sacrifice.

 

Fuel prices, electricity prices, unemployment and food prices affects us all, so are we not thinking of the most vulnerable before preaching on Talk Radio that we will not partake in the National Shutdown.

Are we even aware that those who is going to take part are not even listening to Talk Radio?

 

Remember no one is being forced to take part in any industrial action or work stoppage or even national shutdown, but those not willing to sacrifice must not ridicule those who is willing to take part in any action.

shouldn’t we see the Unions as a partner, instead of an enemy?

Workplace Safety – Is it an unnecessary inconvenience or still relevant today?

 I have been interested in Workplace Safety for many many, to such an extent that I started to get Workplace Safety Training way back in 1998, when I attended my first Safety Representative Course and the rest is history.

I have attended numerous short courses covering workplace Health and Safety and also obtained formal Health and Safety Qualifications through University.

Workplace Safety Laws has improved over the years and employers are forced to comply with legislation. The shortfall we do have though, is not having Enforcement Inspectors to check whether those employers are still complying.

Workplaces at times preaches workplace safety but put production before Safety and in most cases without providing either the correct Workplace tools and or PPE.

Even though some believe that PPE is a last resort, it should be seen as point of departure.

PPE should be that reminder whilst one preparing themselves for their workday.

Employers must never even query a PPE budget, as the correct PPE could be the deciding factor between life and death.

In the absence of the required PPE, one should not continue to put oneself at risk.

The risk assessment per task should be to such an extent that all consequences and its severity is outlined.

Employees should always think of themselves as first responders responding to a shootout or as firefighters or paramedics proceeding to a life threatening emergency - always be mindful that you don the correct PPE, but also remember that YOUR OWN SAFETY ALWAYS COMES FIRST.

 

My questions today:

Would you compromise on your own health and safety?

Would you allow your team members to take shortcuts and work unsafe?

Do you comply with Workplace Health and Safety rules, and do you know the consequences of non-compliance?

Do you see your Safety Officers as an unnecessary inconvenience?

Do we judge the book by its cover?

 Sometimes as people, we tend to look down on others, be it because of their social standing or their appearance.

This happens naturally even before we have even listened to the person. Sometimes this is because of our preconceived ideas on how a perfect human being should be.

We always pray, "Create in me a Clean Heart Mighty God" but just after the prayer, we are again back to our old ways.

The judgemental

When are we going to learn to respect people not based on what they have but on the fact that we are all created equal.

When are we going to accept not everyone wants to be addressed on a title but on first name?

When are we going to engage with those that we tend to look down upon?

When will we realize that we are all dependent on one another?

When are we going to learn to listen without the urge to respond but to listen-to-listen?

When are we going to STOP being cold to others and learn to embrace one another.

 

So many things in this world at times can go wrong with people and our reaction and engagement can add more fuel to fire.

 

For today only, let us go out and let love lead.

Never look down on anyone, unless you are willing to help them up.

The irony of our times

Since our daily COVID19 infection rate is increasing rapidly in South Africa, the President recently announced that we will move to what we call Alert Level 3 Lockdown, in order to curb the spread of the Corona Virus or that’s what we made to believe...

Now Alert Level 3 Lockdown has its own regulations with the following restrictions, amongst others:

Gatherings restricted to no more than 50 indoors and not more than 100 outdoors.

Only 50 people following all COVID19 protocols can attend funerals

Alcohol sales restricted from Monday to Thursday from 10h00 till 16h00

Then there is a curfew where we are all supposed to be locked in from 22h00 till 04h00.

The irony though, one is still allowed to consume alcohol in a public establishment without following the COVID19 protocols, I mean who will drink through a mask, who will use sanitizer whilst eating, who will distance themselves from other patrons whilst visiting a drinking spot?

My questions: Why didn’t the President instead promote offsite alcohol use instead of being locked down into a confined space (for a lack of a better word) for a period of time?

This morning I tuned into radio, catch a conversation where one caller phoned in on Radio and share the daily routine, immediately when the caller mentioned Church visits, the talkshow host questions the caller, why are you still visiting the Church, what the host might have overlooked, is that we go to work daily, we visit shopping malls frequently, we attend funerals as and when required, some go to drinking spots frequently.

Why do we overlook all other functions but are concerned about the Church?

Are we not following the same COVID19 protocols at Church?

Are we even following COVID19 protocols strictly at other places of gatherings? Are we mindful how many people we interact with at our workplaces, at our shopping sprees, at our drinking spots? If we know, why are we so concerned about what happens at the Church.

Purpose of PPE

When talking about Personal Protective Equipment, Health and Safety experts regards it as a last resort or as last defense – is it really supposed to be our last defense? 
PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) or safety gear can be seen as one of the controls after workplace hazards and risks (HIRA) was identified. 

 Let us look at the purpose…. 
 The purpose of PPE is to protect the company employees, its visitors and various onsite contractors from exposure to work place hazards and the risk of injury. 

For everyone to comply with the institution’s rules and regulations the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is communicated and enforced. 

The following workplace hazards or even hazards at can be physical, electrical, heat, chemicals, biohazards and airborne. In order to address such hazards one must wear the correct PPE for the task. Without donning the correct PPE, you might not be up for the task.

The Lost SON....

As we start with Today's proceedings let me open the Service with words from the Book of Romans - let me tell you a secret, Romans 10:14 is amongst my favorite verses  - it reads as thus "14 But how can they call to him for help if they have not believed? And how can they believe if they have not heard the message? And you how can they hear if the message is not proclaimed?

Our scripture reading for today come from the Book
Luke: chapter 15 verses 11 to 32

Luke 15:11-32
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+15%3A11-32&version=GNT
The Lost Son -

Beloveds you'll remember I've started this service with an excerpt from
Romans 10, if we read further verse 15 says:
How can the message be proclaimed if the messengers are not sent out?
Beloveds we are those messengers - As the scripture says:
"How wonderful is the coming of messengers who bring Good News!"

Now back to today's message which I titled:
"Do we, Did we or Are we creating Lost Sons or daughters?"

This scripture beloveds; is a love story, it's a story of sacrifice and forgiveness. It's a story that unites the family in the end! It's a story like most other stories as told on TV, stories with happy endings...

Scripture teaches us that this Father had two sons -
We are informed, as we work our way through this passage of scripture that the younger son wanted out, and to do his own thing.
Beloveds: Maybe the Father didn't want to give in, the Father might have known that the world out there can be cruel; maybe this younger son nagged and nagged daily? Maybe the younger son even threatened his Father that he won't work anymore, maybe there was frequent conflict between the sons. In order to avoid conflict the Father might have gave into this demands.
Beloveds this left me with lots of questions, can we assume that in our lives today our children manipulate us easily? I'm asking beloveds; who told this younger brother that he's entitled to half the property? Another question: Once the younger brother took his half, was the Father still entitled to any part of the property?
That dear beloveds was not made known to us - we do however hear when the elder son complained that the Father reassured him that whatever they own they shared, beloveds what I'm trying to share is: in our lives today, our parents, our elders worked all their lives and went through difficult times in their respective workplaces. They managed to secure some form of retirement and or pension funds: remember the purpose for this savings is to sustain them through their last or golden years, what do we do beloveds, we manipulate them, just as the case with this younger son.
We want and want and want, what are the parents doing? They give into our demands.

As we're attached to generational curses: They don't want the children to have too many hardships.
Beloveds today as younger parents present in Church, whether we had difficulty during our upbringing or not, we always say even if it's silently to ourselves... as I'm saying we believed in generational curses, we don't want our children to go through the same challenges we went through.
Beloveds Maybe that's why the Father gave up half of what he owned.

Further in the passage of scripture we learn that the young son sold all his property, whom he sold his half to, is also not known to us? I for one would've hoped he could've sold to his Father. What is known is; that he left with all the money to a far country, scripture also informs us; this was where he wasted the money recklessly.
Beloveds I can tell you today: if we don't work or earn something through our own hardwork and sweat, then we tend to spend it easily or recklessly.
It reminds me of an Afrikaanse gesegde "Erfgeld is swerfgeld" or easy come easy goes.

As we continue with the passage of scripture we learn that: Famine come and the young son was reminded of all the Good things at home, in the far country he had to stay with pigs, whereas at home the servants of his Father lived in luxury.

Beloveds back to the Father: His Father was, since the younger son left home under severe stress.
To make a real live example: You will also remember as parents with teenagers or young adults, we always worry where our children are, and or what they're doing!
If our children go on camp or away from home for a few days, we will definitely check up on them or we'll be worried as that is a natural response:

My question dear beloveds
Did the Father created this lost son?
What would have happened if he didn't divide the property?
Do we create lost sons and daughters?
Do we exchange parenting by giving money instead of spending half an hour of our time with our sons or daughters?

We were told in Sunday School that the Father sat daily at what I can imagine as either under a tree infront of the house close to the gate, or on a stoepie, starring at the long road, hoping the son will come back home.
This apparently went on for some time.
I can just assume that the parent / father in this parable was praying daily for the lost son.
After some time, the prayers was answered and the Son decided to go back home, to plead for forgiveness.

The rest of the story was that the Father forgave, dressed and slaughter to welcome the son back.

My take is beloveds: If the Father didn't give into the demands of the younger son then it wouldn't have caused so much stress, division and pain.

In conclusion-
Sometimes we hide behind our busy schedules or some form of guilt in order to avoid having to say 'no' to people, even if it is our children.
Sometimes we create divisions in our own homes in order to satisfy a few, or satisfying the immediate.
Sometimes we make promises and or agreements that will cost us dearly in the end.

Beloveds today Jesus want to teach us the art of saying NO and not create lost sons or daughters:
Beloveds there's nothing wrong in saying NO, please don't lie, please don't make excuses, please don't over explain yourself.

...Just simply decline...

Jesus knew when to get involved, and when not to.
We must Learn from Him.
Beloveds: You'll never be able to respond effectively if you feel obligated to meet every need all the time.

Our challenge for 2016 is:
Let's go out there and win those lost sons and daughters.

Why are we denying that there is a GOD?

We read in the Bible – God’s Word; that those who deny Him will be denied? I know it easy for us to say that we are Christian or following the Christian religion, do we however walk in the light?


On a few occasions I have overheard Ordinary People, Radio Talk Show Hosts and even Politicians making it clear that they do not believe in a God or in GOD The Creator, GOD The Almighty. Some of my associates even make it clear that you cannot believe in something that you cannot see. I however find it difficult to debate around issues of Religion; I can try but will not impose – because as Christians who had the privilege to walk with God we are ordered as in Matthew 28:18-20 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
My question however remains: IF you do not believe in GOD, whom do you call for help in times of challenges, in sicknesses, in short whom do you believe in? I know lots of people believe that some events happen linked to a scientific explanation, I on the other hand believe the opposite, there is just too many coincidences.
I watched a movie recently named The Encounter about people stranded in the middle of nowhere on a deserted roadside diner. An arrogant businessman made it clear that he don’t believe that there is a God or in a GOD, quite shocking I must admit. God’s Word is clear: "I am the light of the world.
He who believes in me shall not perish."
He had a chance to meet with His maker but decided not to belief. (Freedom of Choice).
An atheist who set out to refute the Bible found himself during research accepting the Bible as God’s Word because of his archaeological discoveries. Many people regard prophecy as mystical, strange and unreal, with no relevance to their lives. They have almost no understanding of what prophecy is all about. Others, having encountered grossly distorted interpretations of Bible prophecy, have grown skeptical and disillusioned. However, when properly understood, the Bible speaks with a clear, consistent and reliable message that is just as appropriate for us as it was for the people of ancient Israel.

Bible prophecy often reveals specific events and sequences of events. But rarely does it reveal the exact time when events will occur.

So how do we convince the unconverted, how do we convince the ones who don’t want to be convinced, how do we convince those doubting, how do we convince those who betray our Creator?

Walking With Jesus

Waking up at 2am is not always pleasant but it is necessary,while I’m at it I’m thinking/communicating/meditating/walking with Jesus, and I once again realize that Gods promises remains real.

Ever travelling at night on a deserted road and whilst communicating with God a reassuring conscious reminds you that He will NEVER leave you nor forsake you, reassuring isn’t it?

His Word is clear, the sun won’t harm you during the day, neither will the moon cause any troubles. He is our Guardian. Gods promises is also to be found in Jeremiah 29:11 I (GOD) know the plans I (GOD) have for you. God is the one who prepare the table for you before your enemies.

God bless you despite your shortcomings. His words and promises remains the same, see Numbers 6:24-26, GOD will and can Never change,He does NOT keep records from wrongs.


How Great is our GOD!

Happy New Year


We meet so many friends on cyberspace and even whether we have the means or not, we're not always extending an olive branch. Since I join social media, specifically facebook in 2008 I met so many people on cyberspace, but how many of them did I really meet and greet, only a few I would say, so what is the purpose of cyberspace or social media then, I know we have safety concerns but I want to believe that not everyone is a predator.

The best part of social media for me is the instant interaction, the sharing of information, the welcoming, the praise, the competition. I must admit that throughout this few years on cyberspace I've build relationships, that is spreading and sharing God's word, sharing and sparing a thought on actual events, sharing information, becoming a intercessor during prayer requests, a word of encouragement here, a quote there. I've also met likeminded individuals on both facebook and twitter.

I must admit to sign in to social media become an addiction and with so many followers on your timeline you cannot always interact with everyone. I however try to interact as often as possible as Blackberry made it possible for a 24hour online presence. I also make it a point to respond as fast as I can on twitter/DM or facebook/inboxes depending on relevance. It was a sad day to sign on only to hear that one of the guys I've interacted regularly with had passed on.
I was filled with mixed emotions as I might have had the opportunity to meet with the person in person but failed,Dante Bello made me realize even more that tomorrow is NOT promised to ANYONE. His last words on social media was: God Has Been Faithful... So I am Grateful...and #MyEyeOpeningLessonIn2011 - Becareful who you ask for help or share your problems with - B E V E R Y C A R E FU L. I was a follower of his work online Dante Bello was indeed a poet. Reading his blog gives so much insight "http://t.co/Pigsd7TR"

A lesson for 2012 would be not to procastinate, if we say we'll meet let's meet because tomorrow might be too late. A colleague of mine once said: "It's not the pace of life that concerns me. It's the sudden stop at the end."

With this in mind, wishing ALL of you a prosperous leap year!

PEACE BE WITH YOU


A letter from Jesus

As you well know, we are getting closer to my birthday. Every year there is
a celebration in my honor and I think that this year the celebration will be
repeated.

During this time there are many people shopping for gifts, there are many
radio announcements, TV commercials, and in every part of the world everyone
is talking that my birthday is getting closer and closer.

It is really very nice to know, that at least once a year, some people think
of me.

As you know, the celebration of my birthday began many years ago.

At first people seemed to understand and be thankful of all that I did for
them, but in these times, no one seems to know the reason for the
celebration.

Family and friends get together and have a lot of fun, but they don't know
the meaning of the celebration. I remember that last
year there was a great feast in my honor. The dinner table was full of
delicious foods, pastries, fruits, assorted nuts and
chocolates. The decorations were exquisite and there were many, many
beautifully wrapped gifts.

But, do you want to know something? I wasn't invited.

I was the guest of honor and they didn't remember to send me an invitation.

The party was for me, but when that great day came, I was left outside, they
closed the door in my face... and I wanted to be
with them and share their table.

In truth, that didn't surprise me because in the last few years all close
their doors to me. Since I wasn't invited, I decided to
enter the party without making any noise. I went in and stood in a corner.

They were all drinking; there were some who were drunk and telling jokes and
laughing at everything. They were having a grand time.

To top it all, this big fat man all dressed in red wearing a long white
beard entered the room yelling Ho-Ho-Ho! He seemed drunk. He sat on the
sofa and all the children ran to him, saying: "Santa Claus, Santa Claus" as
if the party were in his honor!

At midnight all the people began to hug each other; I extended my arms
waiting for someone to hug me and do you know no-one hugged me.

Suddenly they all began to share gifts. They opened them one by one with
great expectation. When all had been opened, I looked to see if, maybe,
there was one for me. What would you feel if on your birthday everybody
shared gifts and you did not get one?

I then understood that I was unwanted at that party and quietly left.

Every year it gets worse. People only remember the gifts, the parties, to
eat and drink, and nobody remembers me.

I would like this Christmas that you allow me to enter into your life.

I would like that you recognize the fact that more than two thousand years ago
I came to this world to give my life for you, on the
cross, to save you.

Today, I only want that you believe this with all your heart.

I want to share something with you. As many didn't invite me to their party,
I will have my own celebration, a grandiose party
that no one has ever imagined, a spectacular party. I'm still making the
final arrangements...

Today I am sending out many invitations and there is an invitation for you.
I want to know if you wish to attend and I will make a reservation for you
and write your name with golden letters in my great guest book.

Only those on the guest list will be invited to the party.

Those who don't answer the invite, will be left outside. Be prepared because
when all is ready you will be part of my great
party.

See you soon. I Love you!

Jesus

Did we forget the poorest of the poor?

Some would ask... What are you getting at? The question however remains; Did we forget the poorest of the poor?

I am not asking this question because its nice to ask, I am asking it because I see no improvement, 1) In the lives of our poor people 2) In the conditions 3) In the delivering of services!!!

Where did it all go wrong though? It went wrong immediately after those in power decided to ignore their plea. One would recall during this year's municipal elections when prominent leaders were on the campaign trail most of them were lambasted. There was even a time where the ruling party and the official opposition had a toilet fight, yes they tried to compete as to who was better or worse when it come to the issue of sanitation.

Today however is not to talk about toilets or the provision of services. Today I want to highlight the importance of a caring government. I'm not saying that our Government in South Africa is not caring, what I am saying is that their programs is not beneficial to the poor. What a contradictory statement some would say?

Let's do some quick mental maths. Exempt taxi's and some busses (in fear of a revolt) who doesn't contribute to the GDP (with the exception of refuelling) or paying taxes, from paying of tollfees. Building or procuring a highspeed train that doesn't serve it's purpose (which was to reduce traffic congestion and provide alternative means of public transport). Then force the already cashed strapped public to pay for tollfees in excess of more than R50 per single trip from one city to another.

I am convinced that this wasn't thought through as the very means of fuel or food transportation are charged almost R100 per single trip from one city to another. This has resulted in regular and uneven increases on food and fuel prices.

The poorest of the poor therefore suffers the most when it comes to the availability of essential household items. Paraffin which is use at almost every informal settlement is priced at more than the price for petrol or diesel. To buy a loaf of bread is almost also equivalent to the price of these fuels.

My question therefore remains...

SO many questions - SO little answers...
