Below are some general good practices sharing on EHS from the ICTImeeting (International Council of Toys Industries).

 

- all exit ways / stairs must clear of any objects, even though there is enough room for people pass through.

 

所有的安全通道/楼梯必须清除障碍物, 即使已经有足够的空间通行。

 

- Carton paper should not put in any working environment with volatile chemical used, such as prints or gas...it will easily cause self-burnt on the carton paper later on.

 

纸箱纸不应该和易挥发的化学品堆放在同一工作环境中,例如油漆或气体……这类化学品在包装纸旁很容易引起自燃.

 

- In the chemical mixing room, the ventilation facility should be installed 1 meter close to the floor for better convulsions; this is because the VOC substances is usually heavier than the air and flowing near the ground. (most of the factories now are with ventilation fan installed on the top of the wall in such area )

 

在化学品混合车间,通风设备应该安装在离地面1米处以便更好的换气;这是因为有机化合物(VOC)物质通常重于空气并且漂浮在地面附近.(目前大多数工厂把排气扇安装在这些区域的天花板上)

 

- Auditors should check whether the workers do their spray painting close to the ventilation system or not to ensure no prints emitted towards workers‘ direction.

 

审核员应该检查工人是否靠近通风系统进行喷油操作或者确保没有油漆朝向工人方向散发。

 

- Ask the factory for how long they are going to clean up the inside of the ventilation system...

 

询问工厂多长时间清洁排风系统里面…

 

- It is not suggested to install the exit sign / mark directly under the emergency light, this is because it is very hard to see through the strong lights if the workers are looking for the exit sign during emergency situation.

 

应急灯不要直接安装在逃生标志下方,因为当紧急情况发生时透过强烈的灯光很难看到逃生标志.

 

- By international standards, the type of 1211 fire extinguisher should not be used in any industries due to it may cause harm to ozonosphere in the environment concern. So auditors should remind the factory to use other types of fire extinguisher, like A / B / ABC…

 

依照国际惯例,1211型号的灭火器不应该在企业中使用因为它可能会导致环境中存在有害气体.因此审核员应该提醒工厂使用其它型号的灭火,像A/B/ABC…

 

- all chemical substances stored in the workshop even with small amount must be labeled for identification. No chemical substances is stored in the water bottle or food can to avoid incorrect used by workers.

 

储藏在车间的所有的化学物质即使是很少量也必须贴标签识别。不要用水瓶或食物罐存放化学品，以避免被工人错误使用.

 

- Workers should always check the safety device before operating the machines in the workshop. This applies to all industries and machine types.

 

工人应该在操作机器之前经常检查车间的安全设备。这个要求适用所有行业和所有机器类型。
