Application Of Iso 9000 And Ohsas 18000 To A Mining Company

Akaner, Mesut 01 November 2003 (has links) (PDF)
ISO 9000 Quality Management Standards Series aims to improve the products and services regarding customer satisfaction. The main purpose is to increase quality. On the other hand, having a special importance to mining, OHSAS 18000 Occupational Health and Safety Assessment System Series aims to provide safer, more tranquil and more healthy working environment to the labors. Both of these management systems are continuously improved and increase their importance in the world. This study evaluates ISO 9000 and OHSAS 18000 series in a comparative and criticizing scope and complementariness of the standards to each other is examined. Existing conditions in our country are determined in mining perspective and some comments are given to improve existing condition. Literatural information is given about both of the series in the study and these information is supported by some case studies. Case studies covers not only, a leading company in Turkey namely MANGAN Marble &amp / Granite Inc. but also some other companies and establishments. Studies show that there are some problems observed in the implementation of both series. The main problem is commitment of the top management. Other problems are documentation and training of the personnel. These problems are more serious in small scale mining companies and quarries. Although existance of these problems is highly possible in the mining companies applying ISO 9000 and OHSAS 18000 series are very beneficial regarding the increase in the quality of products and therefore it&amp / #65533 / s advantages and in providing a healthy and safe working environment and become a necessity.

Cultura de segurança: estudo exploratório em organização com sistema OHSAS de gestão da saúde e segurança do trabalho / Safety culture: an exploratory study in an organization with the OHSAS occupational health and safety management system

Richers, Rosane Schmalz 01 September 2009 (has links)
Este trabalho diz respeito a organizações de alto risco de acidente, que, apesar de terem sistema de gestão de saúde e segurança do trabalho (SGSST) implementado, continuam a ter acidentes. Pesquisadores do problema particularmente do setor nuclear concluíram que as origens dos acidentes estão menos em falhas técnicas do que em falhas organizacionais e humanas, o que corresponde a fragilidades na cultura de segurança da organização. O trabalho procura estudar essa cultura de segurança, definida como conjunto de características da organização que estabelece que sua prioridade máxima são as questões relacionadas com a segurança, acima da produção. O estudo desse conjunto de características de grande complexidade e diversidade de temas de que é composto, como valores e crenças, comportamentos e atitudes, normas e procedimentos é difícil de ser operacionalizado metodologicamente. Mostra-se, aqui, a possibilidade de estudar a cultura de segurança de uma organização pela auto-avaliação de comportamentos de seus empregados, agrupando esses comportamentos em fatores organizacionais considerados indicativos da cultura de segurança (compromisso da alta administração com segurança, sua melhoria contínua, alocação adequada de recursos, comunicação eficaz e transparente, abordagem sistemática da segurança e capacidades e competências). A aplicação de questionário, desenvolvido pelo setor nuclear (IAEA, 2002a), à empresa brasileira com alto risco de acidente resultou na determinação do Índice Médio de Cultura de Segurança e dos Índices de Fatores Organizacionais. Os comportamentos que a pesquisa avaliou como passíveis de melhoria, isto é, todos os que não obtiveram índice máximo de segurança, foram os dos empregados operacionais e supervisores, relacionados à comunicação; melhoria contínua entre empregados operacionais; e capacidades e competências entre supervisores. Já os comportamentos mais seguros foram os de diretores e gerentes, relacionados ao fator alocação adequada de recursos. A importância da pesquisa consiste em que: (i) seus resultados podem ser objeto de um programa de promoção de comportamentos seguros (programa este efetivamente implementado na empresa estudada); (ii) sendo a cultura de segurança parte integrante da cultura organizacional, os resultados da pesquisa também se aplicam ao conhecimento da última. Neste sentido, o planejamento de melhoria da cultura de segurança pode ser integrado a programas da organização que buscam excelência ou qualidade total (o que também foi feito na empresa pesquisada); (iii) o instrumento de auto-avaliação da cultura de segurança pode ser incorporado ao SGSST das organizações como mais um de seus requisitos, de modo a alimentar o processo de melhoria contínua do sistema, o que se recomenda aos formuladores das políticas de saúde e segurança do trabalho de governos. / This paper refers to those organizations with a high risk of accidents. Where despite having an Occupational Health and Safety Management System (OHSMS) already implemented, accidents still take place. Those who research such an issue - particularly in the nuclear sector - have come to the conclusion that accidents resulting from technical failures are not as frequent as accidents resulting from organizational and human failures, which corresponds to weaknesses in the organization\'s safety culture. The purpose of this paper is to study safety culture, defined as a set of the organization\'s features that denote that its highest priority concerns safety-related issues more than production (IAEA, 1991). Operationalizing the study of this set of features using a methodological strategy is a difficult task, since these features are highly complex and involve several different topics such as values and beliefs, behaviors and attitude, rules and procedure. This paper shows that it is possible to study an organization\'s safety culture through selfassessment of its employees\' behavior, where such behavior is divided into organizational factors that indicate safety culture (senior management\'s commitment to safety, continuous improvement, appropriate resource allocation, effective and transparent communication, systematical approach to safety and skills and competencies.) The use of a questionnaire, developed by the nuclear sector (IAEA, 2002a), in a Brazilian company with a high risk of accidents resulted in the calculation of the Average Safety Culture Index and the Organizational Factors Indexes. Those behaviors the research found that can still be improved, i.e., all those that did not receive the highest safety level index, were the behaviors of operational employees and supervisors concerning \"communication\", \"continuous improvement\" among operational employees, and \"skills and competencies\" among supervisors. In turn, the safest behavior was the behaviors of directors and managers, concerning the \"appropriate resource allocation\" factor. The research is important because: (i) its results can become the object of a safe behavior promotion program (actually implemented in the company in question); (ii) due to the fact that safety culture is inherent to organizational culture, the results found with the research are also applicable to the study of organizational culture. In this respect, safety culture improvement planning can be designed to integrate with an organization\'s programs aimed at total quality and excellence (which was also done in the company in question); (iii) the safety culture self-assessment instrument can be incorporated into organizations\' OHSMS as a new requirement so as to strengthen the system\'s continuous improvement process, which is recommended to government occupational health and safety policy makers.

Application Of Ohsas 18000 To Bigadic Boron Work To Improve The Existent Working Conditions

Gokcek, Soner 01 September 2010 (has links) (PDF)
OHSAS 18000 Occupational Health and Safety Assessment System Series have a special importance to mining. OHSAS standardization aims to provide secure, more tranquil and healthier working space to the employees by means of establishing an assessment system. As mining activities are generally carried out in high risk environments, OHSAS has been improved and has increased its importance for mining in the world. In this study, Bigadi&ccedil / Boron Work is taken as a case for the application of OHSAS 18001. Theoretical information about OHSAS and risk assessment is provided, and some exemplifying mines that implemented this standard are given to illustrate their benefits. All possible hazard sources are identified and a &ldquo / Hazard Source Inventory&rdquo / is proposed. Together with this hazard source inventory, a risk assessment method is developed for Bigadi&ccedil / Boron Work. Several tasks are evaluated according to this proposed form. In order to define policy, principles and structure of Occupational Health and Safety Assessment System, an &ldquo / OHSA Manual&rdquo / is prepared. Several sets of standard forms were prepared and recommended for Bigadi&ccedil / Boron Work. Consistency throughout the organization was established by means of these created standard documents, procedures and forms. Proposed Job Safety Analysis form can be used to identify, analyze and record the steps involved in performing a specific task, and the existing or potential safety and health hazards associated with each step. Several safe job procedures were also prepared with the help of the risk assessment process. In addition to this, an &ldquo / Emergency Plan&rdquo / is proposed for enterprise to prevent loss of life, property and information, and provide safety in case of any emergency or natural disaster. An &ldquo / OHS Audit Instrument&rdquo / is suggested for the Bigadi&ccedil / Boron Work that will play a key role for continuous improvement of the system. Audits are integral part of OHSAS in order to identify hazards, improve health and safety conditions, and check compliance with regulations. These studies also show that there are some problems in the implementation of the system. The main problem is ineffective data recording and keeping. Lack of consciousness of employees and low commitment of top management constitute another important difficulty. Although these problems are commonly encountered in practice, applying OHSAS 18000 standard is still worthwhile method of improving work environment.

Büro

Meynen, Gloria 29 February 2012 (has links)
Den Namen »Büro« leitet die vorliegende Arbeit von den Überresten der Sumpfpflanze »eriophorum angustifolium« her, die auch Burra genannt wird. Im Mittelalter wurden aus den verwesten Fasern dieser Pflanze Rechentücher gewebt. Ausgehend von den Techniken und Praktiken der Buchhaltung und des Rechnens liegt der Schwerpunkt dieser Arbeit auf einer Geschichte der Routinen. Im ersten Teil leitet die Autorin die Techniken des deduktiven Beweisens von der Erfindung der ebenen Fläche ab. Mit den Techniken des Zeigens und Verweisens beschreibt sie die Anfänge der Abstraktion. Ein zweiter Teil wendet sich den Operationen der euklidischen Fläche zu. Ausgehend von der Etymologie der römischen Zahl X werden die Anfänge der Büroroutinen in den Operationen des Dezimierens, Abschlagens und in der Durchkreuzung gesucht. Mit ihnen konzentriert sich die Autorin auf die Techniken des Löschens und der Frage, wie man Zeichen in und auf der Fläche bewegen kann. Routinen werden als kleine Routen auf der Fläche aufgefasst, ihre Anfänge in den frühen Multiplikationsverfahren, einer Wissensgeschichte des Multiplikationszeichen X, in dem Zeilenvorschub und der doppelten Anschreibung der Posten in der doppelten Buchhaltung gesucht, die Luca Pacioli mit zwei gekreuzten Linien testiert. Das vorliegende Buch legt den Schwerpunkt auf die Kulturtechniken von Bild, Schrift und Zahl und kommt zu dem Schluss, dass das Büro im frühen 13. Jahrhundert ein neues operationales Wissen einführt. Es ist ein Ort, der der Gedächtniskultur der Erinnerung und Wiederholung ein Wissen der konstanten Zirkulation und Veränderung entgegensetzt. / The author traces the words »bureau« and »bureaucracy« back to the relics of eriophorum angustifolium, i.e. a marsh plant, that is also known under the colloquial name of »burra«. In the Middle Ages this plant was used as raw material for a portable abacus made of chunk wool. Starting from practices of counting and calculating this dissertation explores routines of office work. In the first part (A) the author argues that the practices and technics of diagrammatic reasoning depend on the invention of the plane surface. By exploring the routines of pointing and referring this part deals with the beginnings of abstraction. The second part (B), a media history of routines, takes a closer look at those operations that were performed on the plane surface. Starting from the etymology of the numeral X that the Romans used for operations of foiling and decimating, the author finds the origins of bureaucratic routines in techniques of erasure. Based on the thesis that routines are small routes on plane surfaces the author identifies the beginnings of bureaucratic operations in early multiplication algorithms, the operation sign x, and finally in the cancelling of posts in early double-entry bookkeeping. Thus, the second part of the dissertation closely relates the history of writing, spelling and accounting to the technics of erasing. By analysing the operations of writing, drawing and counting the author comes to the conclusion, that at the beginning of the 13th century the office is a place of new operational knowledge – it confronts a static memory culture of repetition and remembering with a mobile culture of circulation and constant change.

Povalač, Aleš January 2013 (has links)
Disertační práce je zaměřena na metody a systémy pro měření vzdálenosti a lokalizaci RFID tagů pracujících v pásmu UHF. Úvod je věnován popisu současného stavu vědeckého poznání v oblasti RFID prostorové identifikace a stručnému shrnutí problematiky modelování a návrhu prototypů těchto systémů. Po specifikaci cílů disertace pokračuje práce popisem teorie modelování degenerovaného kanálu pro RFID komunikaci. Detailně jsou rozebrány metody měření vzdálenosti a odhadu směru příchodu signálu založené na zpracování fázové informace. Pro účely lokalizace je navrženo několik scénářů rozmístění antén. Modely degenerovaného kanálu jsou simulovány v systému MATLAB. Významná část této práce je věnována konceptu softwarově definovaného rádia (SDR) a specifikům jeho adaptace na UHF RFID, která využití běžných SDR systémů značně omezují. Diskutována je zejména problematika průniku nosné vysílače do přijímací cesty a požadavky na signál lokálního oscilátoru používaný pro směšování. Prezentovány jsou tři vyvinuté prototypy: experimentální dotazovač EXIN-1, měřicí systém založený na platformě Ettus USRP a anténní přepínací matice pro emulaci SIMO systému. Závěrečná část je zaměřena na testování a zhodnocení popisovaných lokalizačních technik, založených na měření komplexní přenosové funkce RFID kanálu. Popisuje úzkopásmové/širokopásmové měření vzdálenosti a metody odhadu směru signálu. Oba navržené scénáře rozmístění antén jsou v závěru ověřeny lokalizačním měřením v reálných podmínkách.

“How a state is made” – statebuilding and nationbuilding in South Sudan in the light of its African peers

Frahm, Ole 24 November 2016 (has links)
Afrikanische Staaten werden oft mit einem ideal-typischen westeuropäischen Nationalstaat verglichen und unweigerlich für unzureichend befunden. Diese Arbeit begegnet diesem theoretischen Missstand, indem sie eine neue Typologie des territorialen afrikanischen Nationalstaats in Abgrenzung vom europäischen Model entwickelt. Die Typologie fungiert als theoretisches Prisma für eine ausführliche Analyse des Südsudan für die Jahre 2005-2014. Gleichzeitig liefert der Vergleich mit dem Sonderfall Südsudan neue Erkenntnisse zum Wandel von Staat und Nation in Afrika. Ausgehend von einer historisch-philosophischen Querschau auf Staat und Nation in Europa, werden die grundverschiedenen Umstände von Nationalstaatsbildung im postkolonialen Afrika dargestellt. Der Autor schöpft aus einer umfangreichen Literatur, die fast sämtliche Staaten in Sub-Sahara Afrika abdeckt, um typisierte Aspekte von Staat und Nation herauszuarbeiten. Für den afrikanischen Staat sind dies der hybride Quasi-Staat, der illegitime Staat, der privatisierte neopatrimoniale Staat und der aufgedunsene Zentralstaat. Die Typologie der afrikanischen Nation besteht aus inklusivem Staatsnationalismus, dem Wiedererstarken politischer Ethnizität sowie dem ausgrenzenden neuen Nationalismus. Auf der Basis von Primär- und Sekundärquellen sowie Feldforschung, haben sich südsudanesischer Staat und Nation als überwiegend kongruent mit der Typologie erwiesen. Abweichungen bestehen jedoch im Ausmaß der Übernahme von Dienstleistungen durch ausländische NGOs, in der Struktur der neopatrimonialen Netzwerke sowie in der Rolle, die Sprache für die nationale Identität spielt. Zudem weist der Südsudan sämtliche Entwicklungstrends des postkolonialen Nationalismus parallel zueinander und nicht aufeinander folgend auf. Dies deutet darauf hin, dass sich die Bedingungen für Nationenbildung im heutigen Afrika dank Urbanisierung, moderner Kommunikationswege und dem Vorherrschen von Bürgerkriegen sehr von der Vergangenheit unterscheiden. / African states are often judged by comparison to an ideal-typical Western European nation-state, which inevitably finds the African state wanting. This thesis challenges this theoretical drawback by developing a novel typology of the African territorial nation-state in juxtaposition to the European model. The typology is then applied as a theoretical prism for an in-depth analysis of the case of South Sudan, the world’s newest state, for the period 2005-2014. At the same time, comparison to the anomalous case of South Sudan provides new insights into the changing nature of statehood and nationalism in Africa. Starting out from a historical-philosophical overview of state and nation in the European context, the very different circumstances of nation-state formation in postcolonial Africa are depicted. The author then draws on a large body of literature covering almost all of Sub-Saharan Africa to distil typified facets of state and nation. For the African state, these components are the hybrid quasi state, the illegitimate state, the privatized neopatrimonial state and the swollen centralized state. The typology of the African nation consists of inclusive state-nationalism, the resurgence of political ethnicity and exclusionary new nationalism and the politics of autochthony. Based on primary and secondary sources including fieldwork in South Sudan, the empirical reality of South Sudan’s nascent nation-state is shown to largely match the typology. Important divergences exist however in the degree of service delivery by foreign NGOs, in the dispersed nature of the neopatrimonial networks, and the role of language in nationbuilding. Crucially, South Sudan exhibits all three trends of postcolonial African nationalism at the same time rather than in successive periods. This indicates that in contemporary Africa rapid urbanization, modern communications and the prevalence of civil wars create very different conditions for nationbuilding than in decades past.

Uso de indicadores de saúde ocupacional na avaliação da efetividade de um sistema de gestão integrado / Use of occupational health indicators in assessing the effectiveness of an integrated management system

Moutinho, Wilma da Conceição D'Elia January 2009 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-04T12:36:24Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2009 / Introdução: Os Sistemas de Gestão Integrados de Saúde, Meio Ambiente e Segurança do trabalho - SMS permitem a agregação da qualidade, meio ambiente, saúde e segurança no trabalho com outros sistemas certificados, estando seus benefícios ligados ao investimento em pessoal, além da melhoria no desenvolvimento da tecnologia e transferência, combinado ao efeito sinérgico de todos os sistemas juntos com eficácia na redução dos custos de acidentes de trabalho e proteção ao meio ambiente. Este estudo foi realizado no Centro de Pesquisas da Petrobras- Cenpes. O conjunto de política e diretrizes corporativas de SMS da Petrobras nasceu de um processo ao longo de cinqüenta anos em que a empresa acumulou vasta experiência em segurança, meio ambiente e saúde. No Centro de Pesquisas da Petrobras Cenpes, o Sistema de Gestão Integrado - SMS foi implantado em 2003 e implementado nos dois anos seguintes. Entretanto, não existem na literatura, trabalhos voltados para a avaliação desses sistemas utilizando dados de saúde ocupacional. Portanto, é imprescindível o questionamento sobre as políticas de gestão integradas para verificar os benefícios à saúde do trabalhador, quando este modelo de gestão é implantado. Objetivo: Analisar em que medida o Sistema de Gestão de Saúde, Meio Ambiente e Segurança (SMS) implantado no Cenpes, impacta a Saúde do Trabalhador. Método: Para verificar a efetividade do SMS foram analisados indicadores de saúde ocupacional (acidentes de trabalho e afastamentos por doenças), sensíveis à implantação do SMS a partir dos dados consolidados fornecidos pela empresa em questão, no período de janeiro de 2003 a dezembro de 2008. A análise dos dados envolve duas categorias de trabalhadores: petroleiros e terceirizados. Foi utilizada técnica de análise quantitativa Qui-quadrado. Resultados: A análise dos dois grupos de vínculos de trabalho indica terceirizados com valor de p<0,05, demonstrando benefícios com a implantação do Sistema de Gestão Integrado, não ocorrendo o mesmo com os petroleiros p=0,53. Estes resultados revelam uma menor exposição ao risco desta categoria e a melhoria na qualidade de vida ocupacional, produtiva do grupo mais exposto. Conclusões: O uso de indicadores de saúde ocupacional neste estudo mostrou-se eficaz para avaliar o Sistema de Gestão Integrado SMS, conseguindo identificar após o confrontamento de vínculos de trabalho, a categoria que mais se beneficiou com a implementação do sistema a partir de 2005. / Introduction: The Integrated Management Systems Health, Safety and Environment of the work-SMS allows the aggregation of quality, environment, health and safety at work with other systems certificated, with benefits linked to investment in staff, in addition to improvement in the development of technology and transfer, combined to the synergistic effect of all the systems together with effective in reducing the costs of occupational accidents and protecting the environment. The set of policies and guidelines corporative of SMS of Petrobras was a process over fifty years in which the company acquired extensive experience in safety, environment and health. In the Center of Research in Petrobras-Cenpes, The Integrated Management System-SMS was implanted in 2003 and implemented the following two years. However, it doesn't exist in literature, work towards to the evaluation of systems using data from occupational health .Therefore, it is essential the questioning about the policies of integrated management to see the benefits to the health of the worker, when this model of management is implanted. Objective: To examine the extent to which the Management System Health, Safety and Environment (SMS) implanted in Cenps, impacts the health of the worker. Method: To verify the effectiveness of SMS were analyzed indicators of occupational health (occupational accidents and injuries by disease), sensitive to the deployment of SMS from the consolidated data provided by the company, from January 2003 to December 2008. Data analysis involves two categories of workers: oil and outsourced. It was used a quantitative analysis technique - Chi-square. Results: The analysis of two groups of links work indicates outsoucerd with value of p<0,05, showing benefits with the deployment of integrated management systems, not occurring the same with the oil workers p = 0.53. These results suggest a lower risk exposure to this category and improvement in quality of life occupational, productive of the group most exposed. Conclusions: The use of indicators for occupational health in this study was effective to evaluate the Integrated Management System - SMS and can identify after the clash of labor relations, the category that most benefited from the implementation of the system from 2005.
