PART  2:

 

PURPOSE:

 

The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate the use of digital technology to support and enhance in managing occupational safety and health issues.

 

REQUIREMENT:

 

The manufacturing industry can pose a range of hazards to workers, depending on the specific type of manufacturing involved. 

 

The production of plastic in the industry typically involves the following steps:

 

  1. Raw material selection: The first step in making plastic is selecting the raw materials.
  2. Polymerisation: The selected raw materials are then subjected to polymerisation, which involves chemically bonding the individual molecules together to create long chains of polymers. This process can be carried out in several ways, such as by using heat, pressure, or a catalyst.
  • Additives: After polymerisation, various additives are added to the polymer to modify its properties, such as color, strength and flexibility. These additives can include pigments, stabilisers, and plasticisers.
  1. Processing: Once the plastic material has been produced and the additives have been added, it can be processed into the desired shape. This can be done through a variety of methods such as injection molding, blow molding, extrusion, or thermoforming.
  2. Quality Control: Finally, the finished plastic products are subjected to quality control testing to ensure that they meet the required specifications and standards.

 

Based on the above processes, perform the following tasks:

 

  • Identify the hazards associated with each step of the plastic manufacturing process.
  • Propose the control measures for each of the identifiedy hazards.
  • Prepare ONE (1) E-safe operating procedure (E-SOP) which include all the processes.
