Wouldn't publishing case studies of accidents and disasters that occur on-site help reduce the number of accidents?
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. In June and July, companies hold their safety meetings. I try to make an appearance at the companies where we’re working as subcontractors. Of course, I can’t go if the timing doesn’t work out, haha. When I attend these safety meetings at different companies, the content is always the same…
The Need for Sensitivity | A Site Supervisor’s Ability to Anticipate and Prevent Accidents
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Are you sensitive? Or are you insensitive?? Which do you think is better for a construction site supervisor? From my personal perspective, I think managers like construction site supervisors should be sensitive. Sensitive people can quickly pick up on all kinds of information from their surroundings…
"I'll Be Fine!" (Part 2)
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Due to the rainy season, things have been running behind schedule, and I’m really struggling to catch up lol. This is a continuation of my previous post. “It won’t happen to me!” I can’t even imagine the kinds of accidents that happen on site. As a result, I end up thinking, “It won’t happen to me!”…
"It Won't Happen to Me!" The Psychology of Human Decision-Making Based on Heuristics
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. We’ve been having a lot of heavy rain and typhoons lately, haven’t we? You probably think, “Oh, it’ll just pass through as usual,” or “It probably won’t be a big deal,” or “I’ll be fine.” That’s exactly what you’re thinking, right? This is actually very dangerous, but why do you think that way? …
Heatstroke season starts in May! Let’s start raising awareness now!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Are any of you thinking, “It’s a little chilly lately, so I’ll be fine”? It’s coming soon. That’s right! It’s *that*!!! Heatstroke! You’re probably thinking, “It’s still too early for that, right?” Well, the trend these days is that it starts as early as May…
This is definitely the best hanging hook, but it's a little pricey! Still, I highly recommend it!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. What kind of lifting hooks do you use? Most of you probably use this type, right? The one in this photo has a capacity of about 5 metric tons, so its jaw never opens, but even with a chain block, the jaw can open surprisingly easily. This hook is no longer usable…
Since you can't see the double-hook setup on the safety block, is it an effort to make it look like you can see it?
Hello, everyone. It’s Enta here. Are you using fall arrest devices? lol Lately, I’ve been thinking, “A safety harness is good enough,” but I’m the kind of guy who gets called out on that by the safety officer during safety patrols, lol. It’s such a silly criticism, focusing on my name like that, lol. But on the job site…
Simply installing a distribution panel ensures safety!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Do you use distribution panels on your job sites? The other day, we bought two new ones for our company. Circuit breakers with motor protection: Main: 125A × 1; Small: 30A × 3; Small: 60A × 1. That’s how they’re configured. 60…
Never inspect your safety harness yourself!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The other day, during a main contractor’s safety inspection at a job site, I was called out on a safety harness issue. The issue was with the attachment hardware connecting the harness to the rope on a harness being used by a Vietnamese worker. It’s what’s commonly called a “Lolip.” It’s the one shown above. These Lolips don’t really break very often…
