Teacher Lesson Plan 4 : safe@work General Module
|Lesson Objective |This lesson reviews the information presented in the safe@work General Module covering: |
| | |
| |Personal Safety |
| |Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). |
|Background Notes For Teachers |Employers have a Duty of Care to eliminate hazards or minimise risks to ensure the health and safety of all who |
| |enter the workplace. This responsibility includes taking action to eliminate or minimize electrical and |
| |mechanical hazards. Legislation requires a systematic approach to this by identifying, assessing and |
| |controlling risks associated with electrical equipment and with fixed and temporary electrical installations. |
| | |
| |The activities in this lesson aim to highlight the need for students to apply the S.A.M. principles (see the |
| |Terminology Checklist below) to those areas of the workplace that include equipment and personal safety. |

|Terminology Checklist |Workplace Stress – fear, anxiety or other emotional disturbance, often associated with feeling powerless to act |
| |in a given work-related situation. |
| |Workplace harassment – an action, incident or pattern of behaviour that harms, injures or upsets another person.|
| |It includes situations where employees and other people may be abused, threatened, bullied or physically |
| |assaulted. |
| |Personal protective equipment (PPE) – equipment or clothing such as respirators, hard hats, safety glasses and |
| |hearing protection. PPE should only be used when other measures of risk control are not practicable. Efforts |
| |to remove health and safety risks by addressing the hazard itself should continue, as PPE is considered a |
| |“measure of last resort”. |
| | |
|Review Activity |Identifying Hazards. |

| |Read Key Points with students. Have them record these key points in their workbooks. |
| | |
| |Personal Safety |
| |Stress is usually described as the reaction in people to excessive demands, pressures and expectations. Usually|
| |people who are stressed feel a sense of loss of control over their lives, or that they cannot cope. |
| | |
| |There will always be times at work when you experience some stress. Talking to others about your concerns often|
| |eases the pressure. Keeping fit and healthy will increase your ability to deal with stress. |
| | |
| |Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) |
| |- When hazards in the workplace cannot be eliminated or reduced sufficiently by other risk controls, employers |
| |are required to provide personal protective equipment and clothing. |
