However it depends on your team and how often you have safety meetings. Safety Meetings are usually most effective when they are kept to less than 30 minutes.Since protective eyewear is my specialty, let’s talk about using technology to address the needs of the market.Tips on how to use safety meeting topics: While seemingly simple, the variables mentioned at the top of this article can get in the way of these objectives. Time and time again the data tells me two things: workers need to see their work clearly and be able to perform their job safely. One of the ways I go about prioritizing safety is by gaining feedback from the market. Injured workers estimated that nearly three-fifths of the objects were smaller than a pinhead, and most of the particles were said to be traveling faster than a hand-thrown object when the accident occurred. The Bureau of Labor and Statistics found that almost 70 percent of the accidents studied resulted from flying or falling objects or sparks striking the eye. Damage to the eye may range from minor scratches that can heal in several days to more severe abrasions that can cause permanent damage. Corneal abrasions are the most common type of eye injury in the construction industry, particularly in dusty environments.
The small and potentially sharp particles that may get caught in the eye can cause punctures, abrasions and contusions of the cornea.
It’s my job to ensure these numbers go down.
According to The Center for Construction Research & Training, more than 10,000 eye injuries put workers on sick leave each year.
From sharp objects to particulates to chemical vapors, there is no shortage of things that can get in the way of work being done safely. As a longtime product development professional in the protective eyewear space, I focus almost solely on the protection of eyes in the workplace.
