Safety Measures to Be Taken During Industrial Disasters
By Clay Dugas and Associates | October 30, 2017
Industrial disasters, or disasters of any kind, are obviously a terrible thing for anyone to have to experience. When a disaster strikes it can leave everyone involved feeling shaken and uneasy, and in some cases either injured or killed. Often, disasters affect many people directly and they can also touch the lives of many others indirectly. If you’ve ever been involved in an industrial disaster, then you know that what you and others do to respond when it happens can make a huge difference in how things turn out. Industrial disasters are obviously very frightening and dangerous events, and the natural responses for many people are to panic or lose control. It’s very normal to feel frightened and respond this way, but ultimately reacting with panic can end up making the situation even worse. Instead, acting calmly and staying under control can help you and everyone else involved properly manage and control the situation.
THE PROPER STEPS FOR INDUSTRIAL DISASTERS
So what exactly should you do in the event of an industrial disaster in order to handle the situation calmly and effectively?
REMEMBER, SAFETY FIRST
If you should ever end up being involved in an industrial disaster, remembering these simple steps and procedures could make a huge difference in how the situation ultimately turns out. Of course, it is always best to take every safety precaution possible to avoid an industrial disaster in the first place. Taking safety seriously can be the difference in whether or not you will ever be involved in an industrial disaster and whether or not you will have to use these steps. However, in the event that you do end up being involved in a disaster by knowing and remembering these steps, you will be prepared to act effectively and calmly and help limit the damage and further injuries.
Secure the area to prevent further damage or accident – The first thing you should do in the event of an industrial accident is to secure the area. The reason this is so important is that it can help prevent more injuries and further damage. By limiting how close people can get to the situation, you can help keep them from getting hurt, or even worse, killed. In the event of an industrial accident, it’s important to be prepared ahead of time. Companies, as well as communities, should have a plan in place to respond to an industrial disaster. They should also have the proper equipment and training to deal with any scenario. Responding quickly and securing the area can help reduce the effects of the disaster on individuals, communities and the environment. It’s also vital that the proper authorities are contacted immediately. This ensures that only those who are properly trained to respond to these types of disasters are the ones handling the situation.
Follow all safety and emergency protocols – Many times when a disaster strikes, ordinary people go to great lengths to help others in need. Although this is very noble it’s also important to remember that if you aren’t careful you could end up causing more harm than good. If you can safely help prevent further damage or more injuries then you can proceed. However, it’s extremely important to remember that you don’t need to be a hero. You must make sure that you follow every safety and emergency protocol involved for each particular type of disaster. The best thing to do is to wait for the professionally trained emergency responders to arrive at the scene and then offer your assistance. They can let you know what things you can do to help and how best to avoid further problems.
Remember that different situations may call for different reactions – It’s important to remember that not all disasters, or even industrial disasters are the same. There are many different types of disasters, including fire, explosion, flooding, spills, hazardous waste, chemical, and many others. Each one of these must be treated a little differently, especially taking into consideration the size and scope of the incident. It is important to know how to respond in each of these situations; but no matter what type of disaster has occurred, always remember to remain calm and act intelligently instead of with panic. Remember, panicking will almost always make things worse, and could lead to more damage or people getting injured.
