Introduction of Health and safety

In the early 60’s American states different kind’s of crises by the nation, like civilian rights,women rights, and many other social issues need attention of the country, in this similar time the industrial field also facing the problems regarding health issues and the unexpected accident was increased high in amount the amount increase so much that almost 15000 employees died in the job every year, just because of less safety and health legislation. After monitoring all these situations by the new jersey senator he said instead to improve these situations we need to create further action for the safety of employees. He paid attention to the hazards of workers and save them from noise pollution, dust pollution, and cotton dust. And a petition was submitted in parliament house by William, who is working for passing this bill. In his statement, he said in the last 25 years, almost 400,00 workers died in the industry's accidents and by different diseases. After hearing all these incidents, for the safety of employees of the companies, The Occupational Protection and Health Act in 1970 was done by the president of that time. At the begging of this act, the mandate would focus best on standardization to build voluntary consensus in the organization of the American state. When the OSHA published in 1970 the bill includes the proper hygiene system in the company for the betterment of employees ' health and safety precautions, and the act built some significant barriers for the engineers for their safety; they include the limitations on intoxicants, which remain affected today. They make substantial standards for the group of regions, vinyl chlorides, benzene, arsenic, hearing conservation, cotton dust following. These early standards responded to safety and health issues. In this time of period, OSHA employe many strategies; in the beginning the organization pays importance to the voluntary adherence with the inspection refers to catastrophic accidents and the most dangerous and unhealthy for the workplace.OSHA further makes improvements is its investigation targeting system in the last of 1970s to pay attention to the health inspection in industries to deal with a severe problem. In the next era 1980’s the OSHA make resolutions in his act they worked on the requirements to give the employee access toward medical treatments, and to covered the safety standards on the extensive range such as upgradation of fire protection, electrical equipments safety, sanitation maintenance in agriculture, handling grains in proper way, proper wastage process and emergency options and lockout avoidance in the energy sources. OSHA further extended the voluntary adherence efforts in various ways; they enhance the free consultation in the programs for the first time in this year, for those employees who participate in the visit of meeting. During this time of period, many states running their own OSHA programs for the final approval from the agency to verify their plans and to meet all the criteria of the agency, and in the last of the decade, 25 jurisdictions were running their own OSHA programs. In the third decade of the 19^th century, OSHA re-read their goals and further looking for the reinvention of the process and pay a look back through what ways they make variations in these processes to increase the procedure to lessen the ratio of injuries, illness, and deaths in the workplace. The major safety standards or techniques can be made for the industries are permit-required confined spaces, process safety management, electrical safety process for the workplace, fall-protection in constructions and scaffolds. And in the 1990s, the company upgrades the formaldehyde, methylene chloride for personal protection and respiratory protection standards, developed and covering lead exposure in the construction, the issuance rules for the laboratory workers exposed to the toxic chemical. In the 1990s the agency decided for the strict implementation of the inspection target system; they chose to give plenties to those who were not following the rules of safety and health in their industries as regarding these problems get lousy day by day. In 1990s congress increase the number of plenties for the violations of the rules from 1,000$ to 7,000$, and if the violation is very serious then the number of plenties is 10,000$ to 70,000 $. At the end of this century the OSHA make partnerships with different companies to improve safety and health. And in the last decade of 2000 new rules were issued, OSHA incents the new way learning options through a satellite system, and through the computer system to provide broader access in training for the worker safety and health. In the fourth decade they also focus on reducing illness and fatalities in popular industries. OSHA has come along in these three decades, and the injury rates decrease by 40 %, and health prevention rate increase 60%. The OSHA makes great success in the industries by using these methods workers' health issues resolve they work with good health as well as death rates also decreased, but it,s work is far from done the OSHA need to make more progress. At the same time, they must look for the further challenges that they may face in the future; after 30 years OSHA is still a small company or agency with a great and big mission. (Alexander, 1991)

Conclusion of Health and safety

The advantages of OSHA attributed to the higher production rates and increased productivity from efficient materials of the organizations,safety is the most critical factor for the success of any company. Worker safety is the most important reason for the industrial operation because the machinery operations often remove worker from the workplace to protect them from the dangerous environment of the factory. In the united states, as described above OSHA act of 1970 was making for safer work and healthy environment for the workers. OSHA had the effect of promoting the production of corn in the factory. And another advantage is the less time consuming hours worked on average per week in the factory, and the company allows two leaves per week in United States, which means almost 40 hours of work per week. Finally the time typically required for the maximum production of the material in the factory and it generally reduced with manufacturing the products of the corn. The disadvantage is referred with the displacement of the worker . And the other disadvantage is the social profits that might result from the retaining displaced worker for their jobs, and almost in every case the worker job had taken away, and they may turn the worker in the emotional stress, and geographical displacement of the worker to relocate the individual who is another source of stress for the employee.

The safety system that is used in our factory we follow the following steps work permit, lockout and tag out technique then we checked the workplace is it confined or not we review the environmental conditions with the help of gas analyzer in which we tested the oxygen level Co2 & HCL then we allow the worker to work. If we do the hot work then we check the conditions according to areas, and we always follow the maintenance schedule and documentation through ISO. For our workers, we check their health and insured there PPES during work, and we delivered training how to safe yourself during your work. (Calavita, 02 August 2014).
