	Making the best use of safety signs Signs are among the most basic forms of universal communication. They help us locate a bus stop and warn us of extremely dangerous situations. Because we live in a bi-lingual, multi-cultural society, the information conveyed by signage, especially in hazardous situations, must be easily understood by everyone.
Managing the emergencies in industrial environments Emergencies are unforeseen and unwelcome events. Coping with any crisis requires planning and preparedness to ensure a quick response. But when an emergency occurs in harsh or difficult surroundings, it may require unconventional planning and extraordinary preparedness to protect workers.
Emergency Equipment : Understanding the need There are a number of considerations required in specifying and installing emergency show ers and eyewashes, driven by the specific needs and risks associated with the business. For ease of understanding, let’s consider them grouped into five general categories of thought:
Handling the flammable liquids Due to the widespread use and destructive history of flammable and combustible liquids, these chemicals, their storage, handling and management are closely regulated by several federal agencies.
Calculating the respirator cartridge life Before using a service life calculation tool, there are some things you should consider. 29 CFR 1910.134 requires users of air purifying cartridges to determine a change-out schedule to avoid worker overexposure. A user cannot rely on odor thresholds and other warning properties as the basis for determining change out.

TECHEDGE
How to profit from lockout-tagout Some companies may view lockout-tagout as a nuisance. They grit their teeth and comply. But when they find out that slockout-tagout compliance can save money, they usually have much less objection.
Minimising the heat stress in workplaces Thermoregulation is the natural mechanism by which the body attempts to balance heat gain (and heat loss) in order to maintain a constant normal body temperature when exposed to variations in the cooling power of the external medium.
Achieving the complete hand protection Sharp or rough surfaces/edges, hazardous chemicals, heat, cold, and biomaterials all threaten unprotected hands—and they have for decades.
Tailor making of PPE While compliance and user right-to-work are important issues to maintain, employers should consider workers’ health in the event of a fall. User weight is an important consideration when determining personal protective equipment for workers.
Automated external defibrillators : The life saving investment For many organizations, buying automated external defibrillators (AEDs) is the purchase of a bigticket item. For most consumers, a car is a big-ticket item. But buying AEDs is not at all like buying cars, where the effort ends when you park it in your garage for the first time. From then on, all you need to do is drive it around and put oil in it.
	Hex chrome exposures respirators : Making the right choice The primary industries that affected by Hex Chrome Exposures are stainless steel fabrication, heavy-duty coatings and paints (automobiles, train cars, airplanes, boats, ships), electroplating, and producers of chrome-based pigments.
Minimizing the risk of chemical splashes No one can predict when a chemical splash will occur. But we can plan for the possibility, put in place preventive and protective measures, and prepare for a quick emergency response.
Foot protection: Adopting the proper approach What are your employees doing about wearing the correct foot protection on the job? What are you and your supervisors doing to remedy what we in safety see all too frequently: An employee walks into the plant wearing damaged or worn-out safety shoes, or no protective footwear, even though the site requires it?
How to control hot work fire hazards The leading cause of industrial fires is hot work continues to be a, consistently in the top five across all industries, and it has been responsible for many of industry’s most severe fire losses.
Industrial safety barriers: Playing the vital role Sometimes the most serious industrial accidents are the easiest ones to avoid. For instance, there’s a relatively simple way to keep forklifts and pedestrians from falling off loading docks and to prevent forklifts from crashing through closed dock doors.
ELECTRONIC SECURITY
TECHNOLOGY
Wireless applications: Gaining the acceptance in security industry The traditional office-based work environment is giving way to one that’s mobile and decen tralized.
Electronic access control systems: The basics of physical security information management Access control systems, card access systems, integrated electronic security systems – whatever term you choose, card access systems were the original physical security information management (PSIM) tool. Many were already interfacing with lighting controls, gates and doors decades ago using access control technology.
Physical security information management systems: Playing the crucial role One of the most important elements of PSIM: the scenarios, workflows and rules that allow the system to “understand” what really is happening – situational awareness – and what to do – actionable information. PSIM solutions need to be fed upfront and “programmed by someone who has thought through the scenarios.
Making the best use of ID program The authentication of identity has become a complex and sometimes unreliable process. The ability to obtain first hand information on an individual’s background is becoming expensive and available information is increasingly more unreliable. In order to maintain a high quality authentication program, multiple types of verification should consider in the identification process.
Evaluating the risk management in recession In any large enterprise which has geographically distributed facilities, the question arises as to whether risks should be managed on a centralised versus a distributed basis. Both options have advantages and disadvantages.
Applications of identity access management in retail sector Biometrics are used to verify the identity of employees at the POS and other locations such as restricted stock rooms, cash count centres etc.
Video surveillance industry on the growth path As video analytics has dramati-cally improved its effectiveness as a tool for providing realtime, actionable intelligence in security installations, it is getting serious attention for other uses as well. Its versatility provides excellent return on investment for a wide range of applications
Evaluating the benefits of Internet Protocol technology The rush to embrace IP technology has led some vendors to offer composite products that consist of a mix of IP and analogue technology patched together with software. This has resulted in gaps between what is being claimed and what these products actually deliver. This is particularly evident in the software designed to help users manage and operate the solution.
Comparing the scalability of NVR against DVR The difference between NVRs and DVRs is that NVRs have a single common input, a network connection, for all the IP video inputs. This common connection is also used for the connection of playback client PCs. A network switch connects individual IP cameras, IP encoders and playback PCs to this common single connection.
Knowing more about intelligent video surveillance IVS software can be integrated with existing CCTV/analogue systems or implemented with new state- of-the-art IP network cameras. There is no need to replace existing investment in infrastructure. IVS becomes a force multiplier when added to any existing camera network.
