Vapor Clean Ltd’s Post

⚡️ Charging myself up for a big two weeks coming on site in the NT with the Sante Team! ⚡️ I’ve been asked a lot lately where my passion for WHS and ensuring everyone goes home in same, or even a better the physical and mental condition, as they arrived comes from, so I thought I would share just one of my drivers⁉️ For many years in my early career as a Cement Lab Technician I thought lifting limits and good manual handling techniques were for people who weren’t fit and strong. I was in my 20’s, fit and strong and I could do it! 💪🏻 Eight years ago I found out the hard way that when you put your body under undue strain it will push back sooner or later! I learnt a new respect for relentless and constant pain and what it can do to not only your physical but your mental health! 😣 I now have an internal nerve stimulator in my abdomen that I charge weekly to keep the pain under control so I can function and assist others to learn from my mistakes. You and your team may not face the consequences of not managing your manual handling risks today or tomorrow, but eventually your body will give out and this can be life changing! We need to act today! Like so many WHS risks the consequences may not be realised for years to come! I am a walking talking example! #acttodaychangetomorrow #worktolive #keyconsultationsolutions #pinkbootsafety #throughengagementandawareness #consultationiskey

Hand Safety Awareness At A B Equipment, we prioritise the safety and well-being of our team members—especially our dedicated Field Service Technicians, Boilermakers, Metal Fabricators, and Electricians. According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, over 20,880 Australians were hospitalised due to injuries from sharp objects in 2021 and 2022. These incidents can occur both on the job and at home, often caused by: ⚠️ Sharp edges on tools and equipment ⚠️ Hands in dangerous areas with stored energy or low visibility ⚠️ Use of unapproved knives or box cutters ⚠️ Crush zones lacking proper isolation ⚠️ Hot work or chemical handling Hand injuries can lead to serious consequences, including lacerations, fractures, and even amputations. To safeguard against these risks, here are some key tips for preventing hand injuries: 1️⃣ Stay Aware - Keep your work area free of hazards. 2️⃣ Use the Right Tool - Ensure tools are suited to the task. 3️⃣ Mind Hand Placement - Anticipate how tools might move if force is released. 4️⃣ Protect Your Hands - Always wear appropriate gloves for the job.

Together, we can prevent injuries and ensure everyone goes home safe! #HandSafety #SafetyFirst #ABEquipment #WorkplaceSafety #InjuryPrevention

Manual Handling & Injury Prevention: Tips for Technicians For kitchen equipment technicians, lifting and moving things safely is important to avoid getting hurt. Here are some easy tips: 1. Check the Weight – Before lifting, see if the object is too heavy. If it is, use equipment or ask someone to help. 2. Lift Correctly – Keep your back straight, bend your knees, and lift with your legs. Hold the object close to your body. 3. Don’t Twist – Turn your feet instead of twisting your body while carrying something heavy. 4. Use Tools – Use trolleys or lifting tools whenever possible to reduce strain. 5. Take Breaks – Rest your muscles and stretch often to avoid getting tired and injured. By following these simple steps, technicians can stay safe and avoid injuries at work. #Ayyappanchellappan #fmm #prosite #seazen #technician #manualhandling #safetytips #injuryprevention #workplacesafety #kitchentechnician #liftingtechniques #healthandsafety #preventivemaintenance

😍 Knowledge sharing (2)~~~ 😊 How to clean shaker ??? 🤸♀️ 3: Tray clean If the flask breaks or the culture medium leaks, the tray is first pulled off and removed to facilitate the removal of contaminated cultures and plate components. Depending on the oscillation amplitude, the parts of the drive system in the housing range from simple to complex bearing and gear components. Need the help of maintenance technician for proper cleaning. As a reminder, never use bleach because some parts of the culture box are unsprayed metal. If you encounter broken glass fragments, please wear protective gloves and carefully remove them. Then wipe it clean with a cloth soaked in disinfectant. The shake plate and its mounted parts are often used with a soft cloth and a mild cleaning agent. Use a disinfectant, such as quaternary ammonium salt, for disinfection. 🤸♀️ 4: Internal Chamber Flushing Do not spray with pressurized water for cleaning to avoid the risk of permanent damage to the bottom drive system of the tray or the electrical system behind the chamber. After cleaning and flushing, water needs to be drained. Insert a hose into a suitable size waste liquid bottle to drain water. 🤸♀️ 5: Sticky Pad clean After placing the shaker in the cell shaker for a long time, the stickiness of the sticky pad will decrease over time due to dust and dirt. There is a risk that the flask will fall off the adhesive pad during the operation of the cell shaker. It can be cleaned and reused as follows: Clean with warm water or mild soapy water (dish soap). Hang to dry. Do not use paper towels to dry the sticky pads or they will stick! Not easy to clean. After several cleaning, the adhesive pad loses the adhesive force of normal use and must be replaced. Come to cooperate with us~ [email protected] www.radobiolab.com
