    Dear member,

     

    The Society has received the captioned information from Labour Department.  Please refer to below email & attachment for detail.


    先生/女士：

            為了提升懸空式竹棚架的構造及工作安全，勞工處制定了《懸空式竹棚架構造及工作安全指南》(“指南”) (現階段只有繁體中文網上版)。指南綜合了懸空式竹棚架構造的基本要求，以及進行相關棚架工作的安全原則，亦為未能使用一般懸空式竹棚架的特殊情況，提供架設特殊懸空式竹棚架的進一步安全要求。上述指南已上載至勞工處網頁。

    2.                為了加強吊運操作安全，勞工處出版了《吊運工作意外個案集》(“個案集”) (只有中文版) 。個案集分析了常見吊運意外個案的成因及提出可行的安全措施，希望地盤管理人員及吊運員工可從中汲取教訓，預防類似意外發生。與此同時，我們在本處的「職安健知多少」網頁的專題內容內新增了「吊運操作安全」章節及問答環節，詳情可瀏覽以下網頁之連結(https://www.info.gov.hk/equiz/introduction.htm)。 

    3.                此外，勞工處已更新並發出根據《工廠及工業經營(電力) 規例》第27條，就治療受電擊者所發出的中英文告示。該告示已上載至勞工處網頁(https://www.labour.gov.hk/eng/public/os/E/ElectricShock.jpg)。

    4.                現隨電郵附上「最新職安健資訊」以供參閱。煩請你透過你的途徑，協助把電郵內的職安健資訊廣泛傳播。

    Dear Sirs / Madams,

            To enhance the construction and work safety of truss-out bamboo scaffolds, the Labour Department (LD) has drawn up a “Guide on Construction and Work Safety of Truss-out Bamboo Scaffolds” (“Guide”) (Traditional Chinese webpage version only at this stage). The Guide consolidates the basic construction requirements of truss-out bamboo scaffolds and safety principles for carrying out relevant scaffolding work. Besides, the Guide also provides further safety requirements for erecting special truss-out bamboo scaffolds when common truss-out bamboo scaffolds cannot be used under special circumstances.  The Guide has been uploaded to LD’s website (https://www.labour.gov.hk/common/public/pdf/os/D/TOS_Guidance_notes_tc.pdf).

    2.                To enhance the promotion of safe lifting operations, LD has published an accident casebook, namely《吊運工作意外個案集》(“Casebook”) (Chinese version only). The Casebook analysed the causes of common accidents in lifting operations with practical safety measures recommended.  We hope that site management personnel and workers involved in lifting operations can learn a lesson to prevent similar accidents from happening. Meanwhile, we have introduced a specific module on “lifting operation safety” with quizzes in theOccupational Safety and Health e-Quiz on LD’s website (Traditional Chinese webpage version only).  For details, please browse through the following hyperlink (https://www.info.gov.hk/equiz/introduction.htm). 

    3.                In addition, pursuant to Regulation 27 of the Factories and Industrial Undertakings (Electricity) Regulations, LD has updated and issued the notices in English and Chinese on the treatment of persons receiving electric shocks. The notice has been uploaded to LD’s website (https://www.labour.gov.hk/eng/public/os/E/ElectricShock.jpg). 

    4.                The “latest OSH information” is now attached herewith for perusal. We would appreciate it if you could help widely disseminate the safety information in the email through your channels.   

      

    5.                For the latest information on the services of LD and related promotional activities, please visit our website (https://www.labour.gov.hk/eng/news/highlights.php).   Should you have any enquiries, please feel free to contact the undersigned of the Occupational Safety and Health Branch of this department at 2852 4971. 


    Yours sincerely, 

    LEUNG Wai-kit 
    for Commissioner for Labour
