What is Occupational Safety?

It actually relates to the conditions at the workplace and applies to the pursuit of a state where the risk of harm to workers has been eliminated or reduced to an acceptable level where it depends on the type of industry itself. If you're working in the Oil & Gas industry, we probably should know that the risk is much more higher than someone who're working in the office. No, I'm not saying that working in the office means that you're safe from all of the risk, the risk is still there but the percentage of the risk of harm is smaller.

What should be do in order to reduce or eliminate the risk?

 I think we can use the formula of Hierarchy of Risk Control: E, S, I, E, A, P.I will explain about it in the next post.

His ways of studying


This is how my friend learn all the acts and regulations. Am still in pushing myself to love this subject since I really need to do lotsa reading. I wonder how did I managed to score B+ for this subject in my last semester when almost 85% of my classmates were failed. All I can remember is that I've answered all the questions especially all the case studies logically since I cannot remember all the acts well.

I think among all of the acts I only managed to remember the SECTION 15  (duties of employers) & SECTION 24 ( duties of employees').
