WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY

Sub: World Environment Day 2012 Celebrations, Goa

World Environment Day, commemorated every year on 5 June, is an important day through which the United Nations promotes worldwide awareness of the environment related problems.  Green Triangle Society, an NGO dedicated towards promotion of Occupational Safety, Health and Environment celebrates World Environment Day each year in a befitting manner. 

Green Triangle Society in association with   Inspectorate of Factories & Boilers, Govt. of Goa   have come together to celebrate World Environment Day on  Friday, 5th  June 2012  in Goa by organizing a  lecture at the Goa Chamber of Commerce & Industries Conf. Hall, at 3.45 pm.     

The theme of WED 2012 is “Green Economy: Does it include YOU?”   The 2012 theme for World Environment Day is Green Economy: Does it include you? Evidently, there are two parts to this theme and the first tackles the subject of the Green Economy. This is where some people shut off their minds because they find the concept of the Green Economy a little too complex to understand.   On the contrary, the Green Economy is really something that is applicable all around you and it is easy to imagine how you fit in it

Dr. Alan Sanjay Rocha,  a well-known faculty member from NITTTR (National Institute of Technical Teachers  Training and Research) Goa extension centre  will be the faculty for the program and he will speak on the Topic” Renewable Energy and Growth Potential” which is very much relevant to the industry.    As we celebrate WED, let us consider carefully the actions each of us must take, and then address ourselves to our common task of preserving all life on Earth.

The organizers extend you an invitation for the programme and look forward to your participation in this seminar. 

Please confirm your participation in view of limited seats by email / fax  tel fax no. 2232446  / 9403880500 email gtstrg@gmail.com  by 3^rd June 2012  

HIRA

ONE DAY WORKSHOP ON

HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND RISK ANALYSIS   

AS PER IS 15656:2006

(HIRA – CODE OF PRACTICE)

7^th March 2012, Hotel Manoshanti, Panaji Goa

 Organized by

Green Triangle Society

In association with

Inspectorate of Factories & Boilers

OBJECTIVE

The Industries do adopt various methods for ensuring safety in their operations. However, with the progressive advances in technology, the continuing trend towards larger and more highly integrated production units, and the ever-increasing demand by governmental and public bodies for improved safety and environmental standards, the conventional methods of design based on established principles and codes of practice are no longer adequate in themselves for ensuring acceptable standard of safety.

As a preventive measure of minimizing the chance of accident to occur in industries and thereby reducing the possibility of injury, loss of material and degradation of the environment, it is necessary to use more searching and systematic methods for risk control to supplement existing procedures. 

The present workshop based on IS 15656:2006 (HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND RISK ANALYSIS – CODE OF PRACTICE), will take a review of the techniques which are now being employed throughout the life of an installation, by enlightened management.

BENEFIT

The workshop is intended to acquaint the participants with the very fundamental aspect of hazard identification techniques and hence should be useful for them in operations they are carrying out. 

After attending the workshop, the participants will have a good insight in the fundamentals of hazard identification and risk analysis. They will be able use the various techniques which will be discussed with the help of various case studies, in their day to day working.

FACTORIES ACT & BEHAVIORAL BASED SAFETY

WORKSHOP ON

FACTORIES ACT & BEHAVIORAL BASED SAFETY

18^th February 2012

Hotel Fidalgo, Panaji Goa

Organized by

Green Triangle Society

In association with

Inspectorate of Factories & Boilers

                                       

INTRODUCTION

The Factories Act, 1948 is a social legislation and it provides for the health, safety, welfare, working hours, leave and other benefits for workers employed in factories. It seeks to provide protection to the worker from being exploited by establishments and it also provides for the improvement of working conditions within factory premises. It is enacted primarily with the object of protecting workers employed in factories against industrial and occupational hazards.

The workplace accidents are primarily due to unsafe human behavior which if corrected can bring down 90% of the injuries.  The safety of the workplace is influenced by a number of factors such as the organizational environment, management attitude and commitment, the nature of the job or task, and the personal attributes of the individual. Safety related behaviour at the workplace can be modified by addressing these major influences. The successful introduction of a behavioral safety process, focusing on identifying and reinforcing safe and reducing unsafe behaviour, is one means of improving safety performance.

Promoting safe behavior at work is a critical part of the management of health and safety, because behavior turns systems and procedures into reality. On their own, good systems do not ensure successful health and safety management, as the level of success is determined by how organizations ‘live’ their systems

Behavioral programmes have become popular in the safety domain, as there is evidence that a proportion of accidents are caused by unsafe behavior. Whilst a focus on changing unsafe behavior into safe behavior is appropriate, this should not deflect attention from also analyzing why people behave unsafely. To focus solely on changing individual behavior without considering necessary changes to how people are organised, managed, motivated, rewarded and their physical work environment, tools and equipment can result in treating the symptom only, without addressing the root causes of unsafe behavior.

OBJECTIVE

·         To refresh delegates on contribution of sub- standard conditions and sub standard human actions, foundation for loss-time accident injury ,importance of SOPs

·         Understanding   of various terms used in BBS and how process and value based behaviours are aligned, inter-relationship with behaviour

·         To understand causative factors for behavior by an Organism and necessity to control behaviour for fulfilling organizational commitment.

·         To  identify unsafe behaviours in an establishment with a view to decide strategic plan for control

·         To understand  -how behaviours are defined, observed , measured and corrected at work-places

·         To  gain hands –on experience on logical preparation of BOF check-lists

·         To acquire dexterity in giving re enforceable and positive feedback

·         To acquire knowledge on BBS process implementation

·         To acquire skill in employing right motivational strategies for desired out-put

·         To understand how people interact and what we as individuals need to do to get what we desire

·         To understand necessary care to be taken while implementing BBS

BENEFIT :   The participants and the organisation will be immensely benefited by having in depth knowledge of the statutory provisions and the compliances to be made there under.
