Date of Review:
INTRODUCTION
The inspection activity has been carried out in a Lubricants &
Greases Company, located in Sharjah, UAE which is mainly involved in the
manufacturing of oil and greases and complying with occupational health
and safety regulations. The activities being carried out in day to day
operations include material handling, packing , blending oil, loading
cartoons.
The scope of inspection was to identify any potential hazards, to
check the effectiveness of existing control measures and recommend any
further control measure to ensure that residual risk are as low as possible
and harmless. All the findings which I recorded are attached to the
observation sheets.
Executive Summary
The management of company is highly committed to safeguard its
employees, visitors, contractor and all stakeholders from the hazards
arising out of its daily operations. This responsibility is clearly dedicated to
competent personnel. Risk assessment of all the activities has been done
and is reviewed periodically. Resources have been allocated for mitigation

without wearing ear muff. Although the program for PPE is in place and
PPEs are available however implementation is partial to some extent due to
lack of supervision.
Recommendation:
All the workers who have to follow the PPEs protocols must be trained on
the hazards associated. With their assigned jobs, why the PPE
recommendation and how they will prevent them from hazards. After their

Few of the loaders are observed to be lifting the raw materials cartons in
unsafe manners and few of the data entry operators complained about the
backache and insufficient lighting the shows inadequate controls to reduce
the WRULD dieases.
Recommendation:
A survey to be conducted to address the WRULD in terms workstation
designs, material handling practices, product flow and handling. Refresher
trainings should be arranged for all the personnel involved in material
handling and working on monitoring devices handling computer and
laptops.

CONCLUSION
All the significant hazards are identified plus control measures in
a time frame scale. The management, if willing to take action will benefit to
health and safety. As it will increase level of compliance of workers to health
and safety rules and reduce result of injury and accident. It will also bring

more commitment of organization which result a positive safety culture and

reduce legal action by enforcing authorities and reduce compensation
claims and can provide more safe production of the organization in addition
the business reputation will be on the top and it is one of the factor to
consider granting more projects to company in the business today. As more
projects will come the more business will grow and when it grows the
company will become more famous in market
There are certain areas where inadequate supervision is observed that is
alarming for the health & safety culture of the organization. Competence
levels of the supervisory staff needs to be improved through internal as well
as external trainings so that they might be able to identify each potential
hazards assesses the associated risk. Although induction for new joiners is
in place but even then it is not covering the technical aspects of their job.
Hazards related to their assigned tasks, hierarchy followed to take the
control measure and use of any PPE ( if applicable) must be the part of their
induction.
Finally
management
must
