Safety At Confined Space

Confined Spaces are not made as houses and are not designed to be occupied continuously for too long. Confined Spaces can be in the form of tanks, storage areas, holes, tunnels, pipelines, etc. Confined Space can be shaped as tanks, storage areas, holes, tunnels, pipelines, etc.

Unique properties of Confined Space:

- Limited

- Narrow

- Dark

- Contains hazardous ingredients

Emergencies inevitably occur in Confined Space because Confined Space has:

- Hazardous atmosphere

- Heat

- Gas

- Material that resulted in an incident

- Machine that can be damaged at any time

- Power cables that can cause short circuits

For emergencies in Confined Spaces to be prevented, workers must:

- Get the right training to work in a Confined Space safely

- Use the right PPE and equipment

- Have a "Permit To Work" in a Confined Space

- Ensure that the Confined Space and equipment are in good condition

- Communicate with the Rescue Team

To prevent and handle emergencies, the Rescue Team in Confined Space must have knowledge about:

- Safety Regulations and Emergency Response Procedures in Confined Spaces

- Hazards and ways to control it

- PPE and equipment: Gas Detector, Tripod, Davit, Communications Equipment, Harness, Ventilation Equipment, Rope, SCBA, Stretcher and more

Fire And Fire In Office

Fire

Safety Guidelines and Emergency Procedures to prevent fires are the most important things for everyone to do. Everyone should know what to do if a fire occurs. Why?

Because fire is the most dangerous thing!

- Fire produces heat which can cause burns and injury. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can cause heat exhaustion or heat stroke.

- Fires produce smoke and toxic gases such as carbon monoxide and cyanide which can cause suffocation and poisoning

- Fire can cause serious damage to property, buildings, and possessions. This can weaken the structure and cause collapse.

- Fires, especially forest fires, can significantly impact the environment. They can destroy habitats, cause air pollution, and contribute to climate change.

- Certain materials may explode if exposed to fire, causing injury and increasing the spread of fire

- Psychological impacts will occur on people who witness and those affected by the fire. The victims will feel anxious, stressed, and traumatized.

Knowledge about fire we should know:

- Fire Science and Theory

- Tactics to extinguish fire

- Ways to use equipment: PPE, SCBA, hose, foam, water, and more

- Ways to handle injuries and trauma

Some ways to deal with fires are:

- Having smoke detectors, alarms, and fire extinguishers

- Knowing the evacuation routes

- Using Fire Protection to protect the building

Fire In Office

Fire in the office can have a negative impact on a company. In addition to the potential for death and property loss, employees will lose their jobs, lose essential services, and more.

Important actions to protect the office from fire:

- Ensure that cables, electricity, machines, and equipment are not damaged

- Keep all items that can burn away from electricity

- Don't leave any hot devices unattended

- Place Safety Procedures in every room in the building

- Ensure the alarm works properly

- Ensure Fire Extinguishers can be used

- Provide training to employees to save themselves, extinguish fires, and carry out the Evacuation Process

Things to do if a fire occurs at the office:

- When a fire occurs, usually an alarm will sound. If the alarm does not sound, activate the alarm to provide information to everyone in the building that a fire is occurring.

- Self-save from danger by carrying out the Evacuation Process: Immediately leave the office via the nearest exit. Use the stairs, don't use the elevator!

- At the outside the building, count the number of employees and ensure that everyone is outside

- Contact Emergency Services and Fire Team

- Do not re-enter the building until the Fire Team has finished extinguishing the fire and given permission for everyone to re-enter the building

Therefore, all employees and management in the company must have knowledge of the Safety Procedures which contain:

- Actions that must be taken to self-save when a fire occurs

- Evacuation Process, Evacuation Routes, Assembly Points, and others

Advanced Fire Fighting

A fire is considered an Advanced Fire if the fire has occurred and has fully developed. Advanced Fire usually occurs in 4 stages:

- The Initial Stage occurs when the fire is just starting. The fire is located under the ceiling and roof or where the fire occurs.

- The Growth Stage occurs when the fire is not quickly controlled. The fire can grow and start moving to other places.

- The Full Enlargement Stage occurs when the fire has reached its maximum size and has covered all areas

- The Reduction Stage occurs when the Advanced Fire Team has succeeded in extinguishing a large fire, the flames have reduced and the temperature has returned to normal

Warning: Fires can always develop very quickly! Fires can become serious in seconds!

The most important thing that must be done immediately if an Advanced Fire occurs:

- Carry out the Evacuation Process

- Contact the Advanced Fire Team and Emergency Services

Some equipment needed on Advanced Fire:

- Advanced Fire Alarm Technology is the sophisticated technology created to detect fire in buildings and sound a fire alarm

- An Advanced Fire Protection System usually consists of an Integrated Fire Prevention System, Smoke Detector, Fire Alarm, and Fire Extinguisher

When an Advanced Fire occurs, an Advanced Fire Team trained to handle fires at all stages is really needed! This team always has the skills and equipment to control and extinguish any fire, including Advanced Fire.

Advanced Fire Fighting is the special training that equips Fire Fighting Teams with the knowledge and skills to handle any fire at any stage safely and effectively.

This training covers 2 teaching areas:

* The Theory:

It will equip participants with knowledge and understanding of fire (Fire Science and Theory), Fire Suppression Equipment, Extinguishing Equipment, fire fighting techniques done by team members and leader, fire prevention, ways to extinguish fire, and ways to handle victims (injuries, trauma and more)

* The Practice:

It will be done to extinguish Class A, B and C Fires using PPE, SCBA, hose, foam, water, portable and twin agent
