  1. Turnarounds & Majors Newsletter • Ursa Major . the Ursa Major Facts May 10, 2014 DAY 16 KEEP SAFETY ON HAND You must watch continually for dangers in the workplace, including dangers to your hands. One such hazard is the point of operation on machinery and tools. This is where the work is done on the material — the point where it is being cut, punched, drilled, milled, sliced or crushed. As you can imagine, this is also the point where your hands could be cut, punched, drilled, milled, sliced or crushed. The moving parts that make a machine work are also dangerous places for your hands. Rotating shafts, flywheels and spindles, as well as chains, belts, conveyers and pulleys can mangle hands that get in the way. The hands are in constant danger when you move materials manually or with lifting equipment. Your hands can get crushed under heavy objects or smashed between an object and an obstruction, such as a doorjamb. CRUSH - to press or squeeze (something) so hard that it breaks or loses its shape LACERATE - to cut or tear (someone's flesh) deeply or roughly AMPUTATE - to cut off (part of a person's body) PINCH -   to squeeze or compress painfully Caution and safe work practices protect your hands. So do gloves, provided you choose the right ones for the particular hazard and use them correctly. . . • SAFETY QUOTE • When a job requires more hands than you've got. • Stop - get help - better safe than not!
