A fresh, Pure, and hygienic drinking water is a basic need and requirement for every human being on this earth. Many of the parts of the World have natural and pure water resources, but most of the people have a very shortage of after and they fulfill their requirements from rainwater, lacks, and sea water.
This useful health and safety document “Risk Assessment for Multimedia Water Filtration System ” , is uploaded by QHSE Documents for the this website users and visitors. Now we, will proceed more towards the topic. To make such types of sea and rain reserved water, many methods are used to make it drinkable. One of them is the Water Multimedia Filter System (WMFS) is utilized to minimize the following 2-types of Levels in the incoming feed water:
- Level of SDI (Silt Density Index)
- TSS (Total Suspended Solids) in the incoming feed water
The Suspended Solids (SS) have following various tiny leftovers such as:
- Silt
- Clay
- Grit
- Organic matter
- Algae
- Other microorganisms

- Breathing issues
- Eye irritation
Control Measures
- Dedicated storage area.
- Trained workers for manual operations, provided supervision, used correct lifting procedures, and used competent people to operate the equipment.
- Crane-Certified Operators.
- Use well-maintained equipment/machinery.
- Waste bins and waste collection areas remove waste every day from the site.
- Prohibit outside vehicles from entering the site.
- Heavy vehicle parking will be for a limited period for loading / unloading only. Fix metallic fence panels on a firm concrete base.
- Use mechanical equipment as far as possible.
- If mechanical equipment is impractical, then use the right lifting techniques.
- Induction training and Toolbox Talk should be carried out regularly before the commencement of work.
- Vigilant supervision of a supervisor.
- Deploy a trained and competent workforce.
- Ensure adequate compliance of PPEs
- Proper ergonomics carry the load within the specified limit
- Safety warning signs should be in place.
- Reducing the frequency and severity of manual handling incidents
- Reducing reported back injury rates Reducing absenteeism associated with a back injury
- Reducing the costs associated with manual handling incidents and back injury.
- Continuous monitoring by the site/project engineer.
- Use proper PPE e.g., safety shoes, Safety helmet, dust mask, goggles, gloves etc.
- Proper housekeeping
- Proper use of tools & equipment Safety toolbox talks/pre-task briefings Risk assessment before the start of work
- Observe and make sure the platform is plain and proper level.
- Ensure there are no unwanted objects on the platform
- Clean up spills/leaks instantly
- Properly route cables and extension cords
- Do not leave tools scattered around the workplace
- Ensure timely removal of waste from the site
