4.16 GENERAL NOTES ON CONDUCT
The personnel in charge must take care of their own health and that of the other workers present in the workplace,
in accordance with the training, instructions received and the means and resources made available by the employer
(or manager), and comply with the requirements in force as well as the information in this manual.
Behaviour is the result of three factors:
➢
Demeanour
Proper conduct and prudent behaviour (self-control) are a defence for oneself and other workers.
Without self-control, the laws, regulations, instructions and preventive and protective measures adopted have
little effect.
In fact, maintaining an incorrect demeanour and reckless conduct reduces the safety conditions for oneself and
other workers working in the vicinity.
➢
Caution
Injuries and accidents almost always have carelessness as a contributory cause. In fact, continuous control and
vigilance of one's actions (attention), as well as equal behaviour of the people present, greatly reduce the
conditions of exposure to risks and ensure greater safety.
➢
General rules of conduct
In itself, a correct demeanour and proper attention are not sufficient to guarantee safe conditions.
Some accidents and injuries can also occur without apparent reasons or warning signs, so rules must be
observed, which are the result of laws, standards, recommendations, or experience and knowledge.
Workers must adhere to the following general rules of conduct, in addition to those in other manuals or
legislation in force or training courses received.
1) Follow the provisions and instructions given by superiors
2) In cases of urgency and in line with their competences, workers shall take steps to eliminate or reduce the
deficiencies or dangers encountered and subsequently report their actions to their supervisor;
3) Do not remove safety, warning or control devices. Do not perform operations on your own initiative that are not
within your competence or that may be dangerous;
4) Collaborate with the employer, managers and supervisors in the performance of the acts necessary to protect
health or those imposed by the competent authorities.
