Why is Health & Safety in Construction so importan

Why is Health & Safety in Construction so important?🦺

✔️Reduce Accidents
✔️Create a safer and happier work environment
✔️Less illness and better productivity
✔️Save money

Construction Industry Federation (CIF) notes that the top three causes of construction-related accidents from 2017 – 2021 were:

• Slips, trips and falls (702 incidents)
• Lifting and carrying (560 incidents)
• Falling from height (519 incidents)

Even with Health & Safety in place, accidents could still happen. However it is our job it minimise that risk as much as possible on site.

What does Design Risk Assessment with Ashview Cons

What does Design Risk Assessment with Ashview Consultants look like? 🤔

A design risk assessment is a process of identifying potential risks associated with a particular design and evaluating their likelihood and potential impact.

☝🏼This assessment is an essential step in the design process, as it helps identify potential problems early on, allowing designers to take appropriate measures to mitigate or eliminate these risks.

✌🏼The assessment typically involves a systematic evaluation of the design, its intended use, and the potential hazards associated with it. The designer will review the design specifications, consider how the design might be used in the real world, and identify potential sources of harm or failure.

🤞🏼Once potential risks are identified, they are evaluated in terms of likelihood and potential impact. The likelihood of a risk is assessed based on the probability of its occurrence, while the potential impact is evaluated in terms of the severity of the harm that could result.

👌🏼The results of the risk assessment are then used to guide design decisions, such as modifying the design to eliminate or mitigate identified risks.

This process helps ensure that designs are safe, reliable, and effective, and that potential hazards are identified and addressed early in the design process. 👷‍♀️

🚧Construction Safety Licensing Bill 2023🚧 T

🚧Construction Safety Licensing Bill 2023🚧

The Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science Simon Harris has announced the publication of the Construction Safety Licensing Bill 2023.

The bill was published on Friday 24 March and it will reform and modernise the existing model for the sector.

This will make construction an even safer place to work and make the industry more attractive to future workers.

Safety skills will be embedded into worker skills development, making the workplace safer and making safety management easier for employers.

The new legislation also gives recognition to people on site who are not qualified apprentices or professionals but do have relevant construction skills. They will be able to obtain a licence which recognises their skills as they relate to the person’s activities on site.

Workers will now have to hold a licence and will have to renew those licences periodically to keep their skills and training up to date.

It’s time to be #SunSmart and protect yourself on site 🧴☀️

As we focus more on #SkinCancerAwareness this month it’s important to note the following:

•Prevention is better than cure. The best way to protect yourself is to limit exposure to UV rays. Where this is not possible, use sunscreens 20- 30 minutes before the exposure and re use every 80 minutes from the previous application✔️

•There is often a myth that in Ireland & UK we don't have enough good weather to cause a problem with UV rays. This is not true. It's important to get into the habit of protecting your skin every day, whatever the weather is ✔️

•Skin cancer can be detected early and everyone should practice a monthly head to toe self-examination, looking out for any new or changing lesions ✔️

•It's important that skin is examined in a well-lit room, using a full-size mirror and a handheld mirror to see the back of the body. See a doctor immediately if you are concerned ✔️

🔎Skin Cancer Awareness Month

Skin cancer is one of the most common cancers in Ireland and worldwide.
In Ireland, over 11,000 new cases were diagnosed in 2015 and the National Cancer Registry of Ireland (NCRI) expects this number to double by 2040.

Depending on skin cells, cancer is mainly divided in two types;
• Non-melanoma skin cancer
• Melanoma skin cancer

In our industry it is important to encourage all workers to;
•Use adequate protection when in the sunlight
•Check moles or lesions regularly

☀️There is often a myth that in Ireland, we don't have enough good weather to cause a problem with UV rays. This is not true. It's important to get into the habit of protecting your skin every day, whatever the weather is.
