NOTE: Members should also read Process Safety and our pipe flanges (type of bolts, threads showing, etc.)

Have you ever encountered...

I took this photo last week at a company, which I will not name, where they were using a chain as a safety lanyard on the harness for the stock picker. The operator demonstrated it for me and did not mind being photographed wearing it! I refused to assess the applicant for his license until the company changed the chain for a legal lanyard which took them approximately 3 minutes to find,...

Let me be clear… I am not a Fall Protection expert in any stretch of the imagination, so I am all about engineering out the fall hazards whenever possible. A few weeks ago we received a call from a new client who had just suffered a bad accident where one of their star employees was on the roof working on a piece of equipment. The roof is perfectly flat and has a raised edge of 27″...

A NH3 Tanker Truck rolled over and lost it’s load. A GREAT video to see the behavior of a Liquid Spill of NH3. We can see the liquid pouring our of the tanker and immediately flashing off to a gas. Auto-refrigeration is observed as the gas hangs low over the pooling liquid. AMAZING FOOTAGE at 1:53 into the video and another CRITICAL mistake at 2:06 into the video.
