Main findings of the Inspection & Recommendation
Observation # 1 (Refer Observation no, 8)
Personnel protective equipment # 8, 16 few workers in blending activity of oil are observed to be working without wearing respiratory mask, one of the workers in production area is observed to be handling the Capping Machine 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 induction disciplinary action should be taken against the worker who violates the PPEs protocols.
Approximate Cost: None

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 establish the SMART objectives for the measurement of performance and review them time to time this all initiatives will help to mature the safety culture with in the organization and will enhance the business reputation.
