PART II: OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH WHEN WORKING IN A CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL MANUFACTURING PLANT
I. Occupational safety and health for machine operators
1. Job characteristics of machine operators
Operating machinery in the construction material manufacturing industry requires high skill and continuous concentration. Workers need to control and monitor equipment such as grinders, mixers, kilns, and production lines. This ensures that the production process runs smoothly, without interruption, and achieves optimal efficiency.
The job of adjusting machinery requires sensitivity and a deep understanding of the production process to ensure the final product meets quality standards. Operators must regularly make appropriate adjustments, promptly detect and rectify minor issues before they become major problems.
In addition, regular inspection and maintenance of equipment is an important part of the job. This helps prevent breakdowns and ensures that the equipment always operates stably. By maintaining the machinery in good condition, workers not only protect themselves but also ensure the safety and efficiency of the entire production process.
2. Types of occupational accidents in the process of operating machinery
In the process of operating machinery, workers often face many different accident risks. Controlling and monitoring equipment such as grinders, mixers, kilns, and production lines can lead to dangerous situations if not performed correctly. These accidents can cause serious injuries, and even be life-threatening.
Machine adjustment operations also pose many risks. Workers need to ensure that the machinery operates according to standards to produce high-quality products. However, incorrect or careless operations can lead to accidents such as getting a hand caught, being burned, or even explosions. Therefore, training and raising safety awareness are extremely important.
Regular inspection and maintenance of equipment is also an aspect that cannot be overlooked. If not performed according to procedure, the equipment can break down and cause accidents. Maintenance not only helps prevent incidents but also protects workers from unforeseen risks. Caution and adherence to safety regulations during inspection and maintenance will play an important role in minimizing occupational accidents.
3. Causes of occupational accidents when operating machinery
The causes of occupational accidents when operating machinery in the construction material manufacturing industry are often diverse. One of the main causes is a lack of attention and care on the part of the worker when controlling and monitoring equipment such as grinders, mixers, kilns, and production lines. Small errors in this process can lead to serious consequences, from minor injuries to dangerous accidents.
The performance of machine adjustment operations also plays an important role in causing accidents. If the worker is not fully trained or does not master the procedure, incorrect operations can occur. This not only affects the quality of the product but also creates potential risks for the person performing the operation. Carelessness, inexperience, or high work pressure can all lead to unwanted accidents.
Improper inspection and maintenance of equipment is another cause of accidents. Faulty equipment that is not promptly maintained can operate unstably and endanger the operator. Ignoring or not fully implementing regular inspection and maintenance procedures will increase the risk of accidents, and at the same time negatively affect production efficiency and occupational safety.
4. Preventive measures for occupational accidents when operating machinery

Performing machine adjustment operations must be carried out according to technical procedures to ensure the product meets quality standards. The operator needs to be professionally trained on how to adjust the machine safely and effectively. Occupational safety regulations require the operator to thoroughly inspect the equipment before operation and to immediately stop the machine if any abnormal signs are detected.
Regular inspection and maintenance of equipment is an important part of occupational safety regulations. Proper maintenance not only prevents breakdowns but also extends the life of the machinery. Occupational safety regulations require regular inspections and periodic maintenance according to a set schedule. This ensures that all equipment is always in the best condition, minimizing the risk of accidents and ensuring high work efficiency.
6. Handling emergency occupational accidents when operating machinery
Handling emergency occupational accidents when operating machinery requires quickness and solid knowledge from the worker. When controlling and monitoring equipment such as grinders, mixers, kilns, and production lines, if an incident is detected, the operator needs to immediately shut off the power and stop the operation of the machinery to ensure the safety of themselves and those around them. This helps prevent the spread of danger and minimizes damage.
After stopping the machinery, the worker should immediately report to the management and medical team to receive timely assistance. While waiting, it is very important to provide first aid to the victim. The worker must master basic first aid skills to be able to provide necessary assistance, such as stopping bleeding, immobilizing broken bones, or CPR if necessary. Regular occupational safety training will help equip employees with these skills.
Investigating and assessing the cause of the accident is a necessary step to prevent the incident from recurring. After the emergency situation is handled, the management team needs to thoroughly inspect the machinery and work process to identify the root cause. From there, new improvement measures and occupational safety regulations will be implemented to enhance the level of safety in the future.
