Safety
Do I need a Safety Program?
Every workplace where eyes are at risk should have an eye safety program that is enforced. The program should include:
A written safety policy, signed by the manager and expressing management's commitment to eye safety.
The written policy on noticeboards and a copy given to all new employees.
Regular training and information on prevention of eye injuries.
Regular task checks for potential eye injury hazards, including inspection of injury records and tasks that could emit flying matter.
Commitment to eliminating or controlling hazards at the source.
Provision of adequate, comfortable, well-fitting eye protection, including types suitable for people wearing prescription glasses.
Provision for storage, cleaning, servicing and replacement of eye protectors and lenses.
Additional safety training and follow-up action where any employee fails to use required eye protection in designated areas or situations.
Provision for anti-fogging compounds, anti-fogging goggles and sweat bands for extreme conditions.
What else can I do as an employer to ensure eye safety?
Other safety measures may include:
Clearly signed, designated areas where eye protection must be worn.
Emergency first aid equipment for eye injuries.
Lighting levels appropriate for the job (for guidance refer to AS 1680 part 2).
Lens cleaning stations.
Eyesight checks for new employees.
Regular eye check-ups for all employees.
