Be Careful With Working Safely At Night

Lighting is important in the workplace not only for worker comfort but also for safety reasons

. Good lighting is needed throughout the plant and yard but specifically at access roads, at the boulder loading point at the top of the primary crusher, and at delivery points. Truck drivers, for instance, need to see their environment, the road and other workers.

Illumination refers to the quantity of light in a certain area. A lack of illumination may make specific and general tasks both difficult and dangerous for workers

Common unsafe conditions or acts

Poor illumination at night and uneven light distribution

The glare from high intensity lighting is a concern; as the glare is increased by the dust and white stones as well as from reflective metal sheets often strewn around the site

Hazards and health risks

Any kind of accident can and will occur when lighting is not sufficient: trips and falls or vehicle accidents Cost effective lamps such as sodium vapor lamp or mist/dust diffusing lights are available for stone crushing units jaw crusher:http://www.crusher-machine.com/1.html

Solutions to protect health

1.Ensure a good amount of lighting at the pit area and on the access areas. You can also conduct a survey on the continuous, frequent and occasional activity areas and provide lighting accordingly

2.Focus the light on crusher operations

3.Enough lighting at night time should be ensured by providing street lights and focused light to cover the entire area

4.Ensure a torch light is also provided to workers at the top of the boulder pit for emergency use

5.Ensure an illumination of a minimum of 150 lux around the crusher area and 200 lux projected as a spot light on the crusher itself. 'Lux' is the unit in which light is measured. You might need the help of an occupational health expert or technician to determine appropriate and cost-effective light fixtures

6.Metal sheets and other glare-generating materials should be removed from the site and stored in covered place
