| Description | IN/MM/G15/08112022/01 - You have failed to take all reasonable steps to ensure that control measures provided for the control of welding fume exposure are properly used or applied, as you have failed to ensure that local exhaust ventilation and respiratory protective equipment is always used when your employees conduct welding activities. IN/MM/G15/08112022/02 - As an employer you have failed to arrange for the safe storage of dangerous substances, as you are storing compressed gas cylinders containing Propane (a flammable substance) and those containing a non- flammable substance (a mixture of inert gases for MIG welding), inside the business’s workshop in a manner which does not prevent them from falling over or being struck by a forklift truck, in the case of those stored near the office both of which create an explosion risk. IN/MM/G15/08112022/03 - You have failed to make and give effect to appropriate arrangements for the effective monitoring of water-mix metalworking fluid (MWF) quality, in that concentration and pH testing is not conducted at appropriate intervals to ensure MWF quality is maintained in the recommended range within the sump of the business’s horizontal bandsaw, where exposure to poor quality MWF can increase the risk of developing ill health conditions such as Dermatitis. IN/MM/G15/08112022/04 - That as an employer you have failed to ensure that employees who are, or are liable to be exposed to metalworking fluid, a substance hazardous to health, are under suitable health surveillance.
