It Starts At Work

• Training

• Educating

• Stop Work Authority

• Follow Up

Comprehensive Training

• All employees receive JSA and JHA training prior to arrival on site. Hazard analysis/recognition and mitigation are key components of this training.

• Bay Orientation, Site Specific training and Safety Council requirements will be given to all employees. Required annual training will be administered as required/needed.

Bay Safe Acts Program:• Bay Ltd. provides its employees with “Safe

Acts” Cards to report any conditions that they might observe. These cards may be used to report exemplary safety performance by an employee or items that needed or will need correcting. Participants in the program can receive recognition and awards for their participation.

Orange and Green Tip Gloves:• As an additional method to help drive down

hand injuries, Bay Ltd. has mandated the use of orange or green tipped gloves in order to increase the employee’s awareness of where their hands are.

PPE REQUIRED: CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING AND CHECK ITEMS WHICH APPLY.

All employees, contractors and site visitors have the authority and responsibility to stop work or decline to perform an assigned task, without fear of reprisal, when an imminent risk or danger exists.

SURVEY Is there overhead w ork that could generate falling or

blow ing debris?

Have I thought about w hat PPE I need to do my job? CONSIDER Am I w earing the right eye protection? Am I w earing the correct hand protection? Am I using the correct tool for the job?

ANALYZE What could I strike or bump w hile exerting force?

What is directly in front or behind me?

Where is my other hand? NOTIFY Fellow employees if you w ill be w orking in the same area. Contact Supervision if you are not sure if it is safe to proceed w ith job task

We have a company physician and a wellness doctor to assist with wellness topics and employee care. Topics are given bi-weekly and covered in safety

meetings.

• Recent Topics Included -

• Back Safety

• General Health Topics

• Effects of chemicals (food and beverage) on the body

• Employees have access to the Doctor. They can call, email or schedule an appointment.

• Bay Ltd. is committed to the safety and well being of each and every employee. Recognizing that we had taken safety to the next level, Bay Ltd. implemented our Beyond Zero Program where we challenged our employees to take personal responsibility for their company, project and team, being incident and injury free at home as well as at work. The program involves providing work and home safety tips along with wellness initiatives to the employees.

Understanding Cancer Cancer occurs when a normal cell is exposed to a toxic environment and must mutate to survive. There must be many breakdowns in our systems for this to occur. The cell must be able to mutate in a way that still makes it a viable cell. It must also mutate in a way that allows it to reproduce. All cells in our body also have a self-destruct mechanism or a lifespan. Cancer cells for some reason have the ability to mutate in a way that turns off this mechanism. Most importantly there must also be a breakdown in the body’s immune system that does not allow it to see the cancer cell and destroy it. Our immune systems are designed to kill cancer cells because we all have mutant or rogue cells in our bodies. The immune system simply cleans them up. So in basic terms, what causes cancer is quite simply a breakdown in our immune system. Different Types of Cancer This is really a misnomer. As physicians, we like to categorize all the different types of cancer. In reality, there is only cancer. Cancer is the mutation of a cell. If a skin cell mutates, the cancer will take on the characteristics of skin and be fast growing. If a bone cell mutates, the cancer will take on the characteristics of bone and be slow growing. This is why we see cancer manifest itself in different ways. It is dependent upon the type of cell that has mutated. Feeding Cancer In 1930, Otto Warburg won the Nobel Prize for discovering that cancer cells produced energy by the process of fermentation. Cancer cells do this because this is a type of anaerobic metabolism (not needing oxygen). Cancer cells cannot survive in the presence of oxygen. What is the fuel source needed for anaerobic metabolism? Sugar. Normal cells can use fat or protein for energy and prefer to do so. These are aerobic forms of energy (requiring oxygen). The heart muscle uses saturated fat exclusively as its energy source. What is the only tissue of the body that does not get cancer? The heart. A Disease of Modern Man Anthropologist, Vilhjalmur Stefansson, Albert Schweitzer, and others noticed in their studies of primitive cultures that these peoples never contracted cancer. This was also an observation cited by Weston Price and Robert McCarrison as well. Cancer seems to be a disease brought about by the advent of a Western diet of refined and processed foods, specifically foods high in sugar and substances that turn into sugar.

Hydration is an important part of preventing heat related illnesses. Energy drinks are not the healthiest thirst quenchers in the hot summer months.

Energy drinks are designed to be stimulants and can give people a little edge during a work day but there are health risks that should be considered while working in the summer heat and consuming an energy drink.

Stimulants can increase body temperature and pose a hypothermia threat.

They are dangerous for people with heart abnormalities.

They can lead to heat stroke with people who engage in strenuous physical activity on a very hot day.

Some energy drinks contain stimulants like caffeine or natural stimulants like guarana (a berry with twice the concentration of caffeine), or bitter orange (contains synephrine an alternative to ephedrine).

It is important for employees who work in heat-stress environments to monitor their fluid intake and guard against dehydration.

Suggestions for preventing dehydration include:

Check the % caffeine – excess caffeine can dehydrate you and has been linked to heart irregularities including increase in systolic blood pressure.

Energy drinks do not provide electrolytes.

Check with a pharmacist regarding possible interactions between prescription medicines and energy drink ingredients.

Stay away from energy drinks – the combination of fluid loss from sweating and the diuretic quality of caffeine can lead to severe dehydration.

Drink water before, during, and after physical labor to replace body fluid lost by sweating.

Anticipate conditions that will increase your need for water, including temperature, humidity, PPE, and difficulty of work.

Start hydrating before you get to work.

Drink fluids ~ every 15 - 20 minutes

Keep drinks cooler than the air temperature.

BUILDING A BETTER BACK

Back trauma is one of the most common types of injuries workers receive and one of the most easily prevented. Following a few simple rules and having some basic understanding of back function can all but eliminate back injuries.

LIFTING Most back injuries are a result of improper lifting technique. Here are some basic rules to help keep your back safe.

1. Always arch your back when lifting. If one examines the biomechanics of the spine you will notice it has several curves. That is because the back is a weight bearing structure. Engineers have always incorporated curves in the design of anything that is going to bear a load (i.e., bridges). If you round your back when lifting this will compromise the structural integrity of the back, leaving you vulnerable to injury. Never round your back; always arch your back when lifting.

2. When lifting an object always bend your knees. When you bend your knees you engage the muscles of the hips and legs to aid in the lift. These are both big and strong muscle groups. That can take most of the stress off of the back if one straightens their knees while lifting. This takes the hips and legs out of the lift, isolating the back. This puts the back under a greater load increasing chance of injury. Never straighten your legs while lifting. Always bend your knees to engage your hips and legs.
