Strips for safety communication

 

The red, orange, and green strips are used to visually communicate different types of safety incidents and best practices.

Red strip:

* Fatal: An accident that results in the death of an employee.

* LTI: Lost time injury: An accident that results in an employee being unable to work for more than one day.

* FAC: First aid case: An accident that results in an employee receiving first aid treatment.

Orange strip:

* Near miss: An accident that could have resulted in injury or damage but was narrowly avoided.

Green strip:

* Best practices on safety, health, and environment: Examples of things that employees are doing to improve safety in the workplace, such as using proper PPE, following safe work procedures, and reporting hazards.

These strips can be used in a variety of ways, such as:

* On safety signs and posters

* On incident and accident reports

* On safety performance dashboards

* On safety training materials

By using these strips, companies can visually communicate important safety information to employees and stakeholders. This helps to raise awareness of safety issues and promote a culture of safety in the workplace.

Here are some specific examples of how the red, orange, and green strips could be used:

Red strip on a safety sign: "Warning: High voltage. Fatal shock hazard."

Orange strip on an incident report: "Near miss: Employee almost tripped over an unsecured cable."

Green strip on a safety performance dashboard: "Number of near misses decreased by 50% in the past quarter."

Green strip on a safety training manual: "Best practice: Always use safety glasses when working with power tools."

By using the red, orange, and green strips consistently, companies can create a visual language for safety that is easy for employees and stakeholders to understand. This helps to promote a culture of safety in the workplace and reduce the risk of accidents and injuries.
