Developing Crisis Management Skills at Construction Sites | Lath Installation and Temporary Spraying

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

Today, I'm planning to head to Shizuoka after mixing some grout at the job site lol

It's a little tough, but I'll practice a lot lol


But that's beside the point.

 

You have crisis management skills, right?

Is it usually the foreman who takes charge on-site?

For example,

The natural ground is too unstable to install the lath directly, so we’ll apply a temporary spray coat first and then install the lath.

We are implementing measures to prevent the possibility of falling rocks from above striking and injuring people while the roof is being installed.

In other words, we are assessing potential risks.

As a countermeasure, temporary spraying is being used to prevent the collapse of the surface layer of the slope.

When performing a task, we identify potential hazards (risks) and take measures to address them.

We will monitor the situation until we see what happens after the measures are implemented.

That's what crisis management is all about.

Generally speaking, foremen everywhere demonstrate excellent crisis management skills in their respective roles, so,

I think there are few accidents.

I think that makes the foreman's job all the more difficult. After all, a competent foreman is always on his toes.

You often see people doing "KY" activities, don't you?

It's what's known as hazard prediction training.

When a shoot drags on, it starts to feel kind of drawn-out, and I’m getting a little fed up with it.

The craftsmen just went along with it, as if it were a given...

It's actually a hassle for me, too, and since it's always the same, I get bored of it.

But this is an important point, too, isn't it?

It's important to do it every day.

It’s said that the things we do every day have an effect on our subconscious.

It's what you might call "brainwashing" or "conditioning," lol. If I don't do it, I start to feel weird.

It's the same with TV commercials—let's say you see or hear the same commercial or music every time.

Whenever I hear that song somewhere, I instantly remember that commercial or product.

And before I knew it, I ended up buying it lol

That, too, is a form of conditioning.

An important aspect of crisis management isA mind that can always anticipate risks and the ability to take action to avoid themThat's the point.

To that end, it’s important to train your brain through daily KY activities that involve anticipating risks.

KY Activities Are Like Strength Training for SafetyLet's keep that in mind and do our best!

It’s definitely better to instill a constant awareness of safety.

Safety comes first!

 

See you later.

    That's certainly true, but at the end of the day, it's the foreman who fills out the KY form, and even if you tell the workers to check it carefully before signing, they'll just sign it anyway (´Д⊂ヽ
    Even if we take turns writing every day, there are still some people who write stuff that makes no sense ( ´△`)
    It's a tough problem, but... I wonder if there's any point in even trying.
    Well, it's all in the mind, though!❗

      It's a bit tricky, but it's better than doing nothing, right?
      If an accident were to occur, this would raise questions about our day-to-day safety management, and it’s also one of the documents required during government inspections, isn’t it?
      I’d like young people to write more carefully, but these days, older people are often worse than young people, lol.
      But I wonder what it takes to raise awareness.
